#that's my conspiracy theory

[sistersorrow]

The problem with the "you believe in the moon?" anti-conspiracy tactic is that conspiracy theorists will just end up matching or surpassing your freak with superior worldbuilding

You try and reply with "you believe in the moon?" to someone denying the moon landing, and they'll just reply that the moon is an alien mind control device representing the crown chakra of the worldsoul, which is an actual conspiracy theory present in some New Age circles like the people behind Spirit Science

You simply cannot beat these people at their own game, they have too much experience

Eddie can't believe he's seeing Steve Harrington in a gay bar of all the places. Sure, he heard rumors about a certain jock becoming friends with the band geek Robin Buckley (whom he already clocked as a friend of Dorothy), but he didn't expect it to be true.

Here in the safe space for queer people in Indianapolis, Steve is sitting by the bar—wearing his little pink crop top and skin tight Levi's—and laughing heartily at something Buckley is saying. And Eddie wants.

Anyway, this is his chance. Years of ogling watching Steve finally pays off now. As smoothly as possible, he slides into the stool beside Steve, catches his attention, and starts whispering to him. It's not a conversation intended for impressionable ears, after all.

"I happen to know the best places to hide bodies."

Steve blinks owlishly at him, caught off guard that Eddie knows about his secret.

"What?"

"Don't worry, princess." Eddie grabs Steve's hand and presses a kiss to the back of it, making him blush prettily. "Your secrets will forever be safe with me. I'm just here to let you know that you're not alone."

"... Who are you again?"

Steve looks cute when he's baffled, so Eddie can't be blamed for responding him with a wink.

"The name is Eddie. But you can also call me Daddy."

Steve rolls his eyes, huffing.

"You're so weird, man."

In the end, Eddie successfully introduced himself to his crush and went home with Steve's phone number safely tucked in his pocket. Before he left, however, he heard Buckley hiss something to Steve that almost sounded like:

"Girl, stop. That weirdo is not your Prince Charming."

"Well," Steve said. "I could be Juliet."

And the hopeless romantic in Eddie's heart swooned.

family tea party.

(in my mind, Radagon is the pure Order with no kindness half, and he always yearns to converge with Marika + be on equal footing with her, so in my drawing he’ll always be kinda nuts)

So TikTok is already back in the US not even 24 hours after it was closed, and I am not a fan of the phrasing of this message. “As a result of President Trump’s efforts” he’s not even in office yet, what do you mean as a result of his efforts?? Why bother turning it off before the deadline if it was just going to be turned back on practically immediately? (It’s propaganda, that’s why) (edit: this was posted the day before inauguration, January 19th)

the more i reflect it really does feel like tim got scared about buddie and killed bobby about it. like buddie goggles aside, buck and eddie have been the emotional core of this season up until bobby died tbh. nearly every other main character has had one or two brief impactful/emotional plots that were quickly resolved or swept under the rug with one or two lines to wrap things up, which is bad writing for an ensemble show but we can’t even get into that rn. buck and eddie however each had an individual emotional arc that overlapped with each other, especially buck, that lasted through the entire season in one way or another. to the point that it was the only consistent plot line for most of the season, and the only ending that made any narrative sense was some kind of shakeup in their dynamic or at least a meaningful and satisfying resolution to everything they’ve stewed in for 18 episodes. but instead we got a grief arc out of nowhere that wasn’t even done well in any sense of the word, aside from one strong episode that makes the entire season feel so fucking off by comparison

There was a teen in the cave.

A teen no one knows and looks like he could be a wayne, stands in the cave.

"Actually, I'm a wayne." He says with a shrug.

Bruce, Batman, carefully thinks of the implication.

"Not yet," The teen, Danny, doesn't say anything. Simple smiles. "You're not a wayne, yet. You will be. But not yet."

Then Bruce sighs, dropping the batman mask in order to take in the teen.

"Does future me know of the time travel?"

Dannys smile grows into a grin, deciding to take pity on the man. "You, grandbat, have..." He makes a vague gesture. "Theories, which none of your children ever confirmed."

The bat's mind short-circuits at the choice of words

Dick is sputtering incomprehensibly, there are Baffled expression all around.

Because.

Because that child isn't Bruce's, but one of theirs.

"Who is it?" Jason demands, hand clenching his gun uselessly.

Danny continues to smile, a hint of mischief now peeking out.

The cave is filled with theories, some yell, some sob, yet all eyes leave danny.

All but one pair.

She had known the moment his body language switched just enough for her to read.

She had known the moment he disappeared before the clan.

Had known when his hand found hers, shoulders bumping.

Her heart clenches, throat dry and memories of her childhood flooding to mind.

So she asks, voice soft and hesitant.

"Am I a good mother?"

And danny looks up at cass, adoration and pride laid out plain for her to see and accept.

"You're the best."

And so they both watch the clan together, silent and comfortable.

(Cass doesn't question when she finds him, how and why. All she knows is that she's more attentive when out on patrol, looking and waiting.)

(This is how Cassandra Cain-Wayne returns one night from patrol, a child, barely out of toddler stage and clinging to her form.)

(This is how the Batclan officially meets one Daniel James Cain-Wayne, freshly washed and clothed, a cookie in hand and hiding shyly behind Cass.)

(When they meet, all they say is "Welcome home, danny," and "Good to see you again.", Danny doesn't necessarily get it, but that's okay. Maybe his new mom will explain it one day when he's bigger.)

so being jewish, i know that antisemitism primary hurts jews. it's us. we live with the most threats from it.

but no one seems to notice how many terrorists, school shooters, bombers, hate groups, harassment campaigns, hate ideology: sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, fuck pretty much all of the worst brain worms you can get or be effected by: are powerfully charged, explained, accepted because of and linked through jew hatred.

the dyke march hates jews, but so do trad cath men's rights groups. black hebrew israelites hate jews, but so do flat earther, Qanon, and the KKK. so do incels. so do the anti israel leftist. both the far right and far left have vast theories about how jews are involved in world affairs. so do pretty much any color or creed of goyim that has fallen down the rabbit hole into la la land where violence becomes a political solution.

all the big hate group networks use jews as a uniting big tent to find common ground to work together. no joke. brown and black christian nationalist and islamist pro terrorist speakers are routinely used by white supremesists online and at in person conferences.

no one seems to acknowledge that the jew hate is the core principal behind conspiracy narratives globally and that conspiracy narratives are the destabilizing force that lets a person go from "i want to change the world for the better!" into "things can only get better by mass violence!"

and everyone kinda ... ignores it. not even that it's a warning sign but like... that it's pretty critical to convince someone that they need to cause mass death? i just feel so crazy sometimes.

i'm not even just worried for jews, i'm trying to warn goyim that antisemitism is why schools and concerts aren't safe FOR THEM, and it's like... crickets. no idea.

Wait. Wait a dang minute. I have a theory.

So I know one of the discussions I’ve seen floating around is ‘why Theo’. What made the DDs specifically go after this one 9 year old boy, what made him special. And here’s my little take on it.

What made Theo special? Nothing. We know the DDs target kids in bad situations - see; Tracey, Josh, Corey, etc - kids who can disappear for days at a time without anyone raising any red flags, and from that we can assume Theo and Tara’s parents were maybe not great too. We also know they’ve been playing at making chimeras/trying to make The Beast for quite a number of years.

So who’s to say Theo wasn’t just one of another batch like the S5 chimeras? Ten years earlier, starting with younger kids, maybe, and that being The First Chimera is being the first chimera that survived. Why? That’s the fun part. There’s any number of explanations; because he was stubborn, because he’s a survivor, because there was something slightly different in his genetic makeup that unlocked the next puzzle piece in the DD’s jigsaw Frankenstein, because he refuses to die and it adds just another layer to the nuance of parallels between him and Scott. Normal nothing loser kid becomes Something Else and the support system they have in the aftermath structures their entire life.

And the best part is Theo probably doesn’t even remember, just knows that once he was a Success, the First, but that wasn’t quite enough and the Doctors moved on and he’s spent the rest of his life chasing the feeling of being important in the worst way possible.

Something about the idea of Season 2/3 Scott looking at his baby pack at the time with that sweet summer child vibe they had before The Horrors started Happening and going ‘I don’t know what I’d do without you guys’ and then the scene cutting to a sixteen year old Theo murdering some guy because he’s spent seven years being moulded into a weapon to be aimed and fired because he might not have been good enough for The Beast but he was still an excellent tool for furthering the cause.

Idk how many people noticed this but while rewatching gravity falls, in “Carpet Diem” when they find the secret room the first thing Stan notices and grabs are a pair of Fords glasses. Later in the episode we see him cleaning them on the couch.
