Bruce and dicks relationship has a complexity that can only be compared to toxic friendships that started in kindergarten and survived into adulthood that have so much history attached to them there’s like five versions of those people living in your memory and you never know which one they’re going to act like more when you see them but you’ll keep coming back even when it’s all the versions you don’t get along with because so much of your life was spent with them they’re a part of you and maybe if you stick around long enough it’ll be how it was but no it won’t be because they’re looking at versions of you they don’t recognize the same as you are and keep coming back to you because they’re hoping for the same thing and-

tumblr is not social media. idk how to explain but its so calm here. like this is the field and the valleys. over there is the town and people. but here we are little sheep in our pastures eating our grass and laying in the sun <3

I love when non-Indigenous americans get whiny about people calling for the death/collapse/etc of the united states like as a country cause the thing is that. Like. Well you see... the nation of usamerica isn't... synonymous with People Living Here. You get that, right. I know I know somebody from the global south posted something mean about your beloved burger country but I'm with them on this, actually. "America" doesn't have to be here. I also want to see it destroyed within my lifetime. Ooh your position of relative privilege is being threatened ooooh 👻

i am totally going to come across as a boomer in this post but as an engineer it's common sense to not build systems with a single point of failure. and i'm starting to realize that our usage of the smart phone is exactly that. a single point of failure. the calling/texting is the implied function of the smartphone, which is fine. that's what it's built for. but nowadays we don't think to keep a physical map or atlas or gps unit in our car because our phone has google maps. we don't keep address books anymore because it's all stored in our contacts. i serve customers who no longer carry a wallet/physical card because it's all on their phone. this is literally a single point of failure. if you lose or break your phone when you are in a foreign place you are fucking screwed. maybe you're still screwed even in your home town because so many people have become accustomed to using a smart phone to take them anywhere.

The corollary to "you shouldn't call historical people gay because it's a modern term" is "the word friend didn't always mean what you think it means".

starfire having personality traits that aren't purely around making puppy dog eyes after robin or being naive and trigon actually wanting raven to rule beside him in TTGO proves that it is more comic-accurate than the 2003 animated TV show -- *gets taken out by a sniper who has been begging for season 6 for 20 years*

Being a DC fan is so embarrassing sometimes because you'll be like ah yes this is my favorite character, his name is Bart. Like?? And this guy, his name is Kyle. Can't forget my good man Dick.
