Pros of hyperfixiation:

Happy!

Art ideas

Life is good

Cons of hyperfixiation:

I am going to blow up

All my art is of the same guy

If I don't think about this 24/7 I get violent

Was chatting to another nurse about the floor I’m on right now, and that nurse said, referring to the charge nurse tonight, “oh yeah, she’s a power hungry monster, she’d be charge nurse every shift if she could.” And then later the nurse said she had only stayed long (a 16 hr shift, can you imagine) because her girlfriend was also working late, and I was like “oh who’s your girlfriend?”

And the nurse said, “it’s the charge nurse.”

And I was like, “the power hungry monster?”

And the nurse was like “yes 🥰🥰”

It’s fine because I’m actually using a secret technique called writing it in my head and nowhere else.

Obsessed with little Lima Bean Baby Dami. I feel like Bruce would pass out from cuteness if he witnessed his child looking like that.

Talia should send Damian's baby pics to Bruce lol

approaches this wasps' nest with hope and a firm resolution in my heart

you are going to feel much better. if you stop seeking out things that you hate and that make you upset.

yes, i mean you need to stop looking for people who make porn you dont like so you can be upset at them. yes i mean you need to stop searching artists and creators you hate so you can try to push them off the internet. yes i mean you need to stop engaging and start blocking.

being sensitive is okay. purposefully upsetting yourself because you can't control others' actions is self-defeating and juvenile. there will always be people on the internet doing whatever awful thing you're trying to morality brigade out of existence.

put down the fight and go do something you like instead. you only have so much time on this planet

do you have comic recs for someone who wants to get into tim and timkon? I read superman comics but your fic made me wanna know more about this character who makes me want to eat metal with how weird and scary he is (affectionate)

hello! and welcome to the “weird scary little guy who makes you want to eat metal” (or perhaps put him in a salad spinner) club

tim has many, many comics, so for the purposes of this i’ll go with some big arcs/series and then some random personal favs

a lonely place of dying (1989): aka tim’s intro, in which 13 y/o tim engages in his favorite pastime (stalking dick grayson), tries to be a family therapist, and somehow ends up in a cape and pointy boots at the end of it.

robin (1993): so much content spanning so many batman plotlines; this is just issue after issue of tim being the most 90s kid to ever 90s kid (and then 00s kid to ever 00s kid). also much of it is written by chuck dixon, who is good at being so homophobic that the characters loop right back around to being queer.

young justice (1998): for both tim and kon (and bart and cassie and the whole yj crew)! also featuring tim and kon both wearing gloves that are way too big for them. no idea what's going on there but it's kind of like when puppies have giant paws they haven't grown into yet.

red robin (2009): THE tim comic to me, partially because marcus to draws most of it (issue 6 on i believe) and the way he draws tim here is peak tim to me, and partially because tim is just balls to the wall bonkers in fucking yonkers the whole series. this spans his brucequest and damian becoming robin (and damian in this is so!! and dick is so!!) while tim takes his shaky next steps. he’s in his messy bitch era but also stuck at 17(?) so that just means he’s randomly making out with sort-of-adversaries on rooftops and thinking longingly of kon and getting fake engaged(??) to a girl he can barely ask on a first date. (it has scant few but still some good timkon moments here and there.) (and speaking of marcus to: this and this.)

a lonely place of living (detective comics) (2017): an arc in which everyone thought tim was dead but surprise! he was just stuck in a pocket dimension prison and now he has to come back and stop gun batman (again). feat. tim being wildly competent from page one. kon is, iirc, currently erased from the timeline but never fear, tim still manages to find a way to think about him.

random/short comics:

WF3: superboy & robin (1996): tim & kon solve a case together in a two-parter that is, as described by a reviewer on its league of comic geeks entry, "…a pretty fun meet cute, I mean team-up…" (basically: see above re: chuck dixon.)

knight terrors: robin (2023): a two-parter in which tim and jason are trapped in a sentient nightmare together. if you like those vibes definitely check out this fic.

nightwing (1996) #25: tim being an annoying little brother is something that can be so personal—

and i've also been enjoying tim in the current zdarsky batman run, especially the recent arc (i believe it starts around #125)!

having grown up in a predominantly post-9/11 America, I am always shocked when learning about how lax safety protocols used to be just... everywhere

I am so used to going to places where everyone is on some level prepared to deal with the worst possible scenario occurring, I can't imagine a world in which the worse possible scenario was just non-existent and something only encountered in the fiction

I am currently reading the official congressional report for 9/11 and am in the section about the 1993 bombing - what happened, how everyone responded, and what changes were made that were in play on 9/11 and it eye opening in the worst ways

like, logically, I knew that 9/11 fundamentally changed how the United States functioned, but having never truly experienced what things were like before in any meaningful way and reading about it now... its staggering

Anyway, I am really sad in the library on a Saturday afternoon cause those poor people really had no chance

ALSO the fact that tim drake canonically watches bruce get stabbed, spies on the titans tower, knows all of the titans schedules, spies on dick’s apartment with kori, breaks into dick’s old apartment, follows him to the circus, has kept newspaper clippings of batman and robin since he was able to read, knows what art bruce wayne collects, had dreams about being saved by batman and robin and y’all REDUCE his stalker tendencies to just he followed them and took pictures….. no. no, we need him crazier.
