I think the DC fandom should acknowledge that Darkseid is inherently pathetic.
Here's the thing: he's the biggest bad in the DC Multiverse, baring very few exceptions. He's the literal concept of evil and tyranny boiled down to it's purest forn. His catchphrase, "Darkseid is" is meant to indicate that he is inherently more real than you. He exists above you, inside you, through you, around you. He is objectively more than you.
And he keeps losing. Imagine losing to someone who is so much less than you that you can't even recognize them as being sentient or as existing. Imagine failing to conquer the multiverse because a flat picture of Superman beat you up. Imagine failing at your life goal over and over again because you can't beat a video game. That's what it's like for Darkseid every time he fails against the Justice League. Darkseid is so pathetic that he loses to people who don't even exist to him.
When I was younger and researching the autism diagnosis criteria and symptoms, I thought “oh I couldn’t POSSIBLY be autistic.” Because when I read “takes everything literally” I thought it literally meant EVERYTHING and I was like “I don’t take EVERYTHING literally, just most things!” And I just realized the other day that it didn’t actually mean EVERYTHING and that was an overstatement.
I think having a baby niece is great cause my brother will send me just a constant stream of messages that sound indistinguishable from how someone at Jurassic park would text if they were being hunted by the raptor
"Not beating the ___ allegations" is such a 'now' turn of phrase, implying as it does a world where everyone's behavior is always on literal trial by a guilt-presuming judge and jury that consists of anyone who happens to be paying attention.
The AU I’m working on has made me fall into DC Comics Timeline Hell. Specifically, the Batfamily’s ages. If Tim is three when Dick is eight, their age difference is five years. And Jason is two years older than Tim, so only three years younger than Dick. But since Jason is introduced at twelve when Dick is already Nightwing and at the very least seventeen, I've been working on the assumption that they had a gap of five or six years! Because they do in canon! But they also don’t in canon! What the heck, DC? Is Dick fifteen when he gets his first little brother? Because he wasn't when he left Gotham before that! What’s the age gap? What is it? They have to age at the same rate, dammit, that’s how time works! TELL ME! *getting dragged into Arkham* TELL MEEEEEEEE
a very, VERY important post. spread everywhere and screen record the video to your phone. or message me and ill happily send you the video. give to every woman and girl you know.
bc as they both said / demonstrated, its not only super easy to do, but super easy to miss.
Honestly I think it’s so funny that in the Marvel universe, when someone’s really smart, they have like eight to twelve doctorates and they finished high school at age twelve.
And then over in the DC universe it’s like. This is Tim Drake. He’s a genius. He keeps cloning his loved ones. He dropped out of highschool. Over there is Barry Allen. He can reverse engineer a spaceship in less than a minute. He is such a good chemist he’s still going to be known as the best chemist in 4,000 years. He has a bachelor’s degree.
