so hopefully what we all learn from JK Rowling starting to go after asexual people is that when we bully or exclude queer people in our own communities we make this discourse popular enough for it to eventually spread to homophobes, right?
This is not the first time I've heard people outside the community parroting Ace Discourse talking points either. One of my sister's friend's parents believed that it was a form of social contagion when her son came out as asexual. She said very similar things to people online that I've seen. My mom had to talk her down and discuss it with her, but yeah.
Ace Discourse breached containment a few years ago. They have some of these talking points because of acephobes on this website starting discourse and invalidating peoples' asexuality. When a transphobe as notorious as her starts parroting these points, please know that you fucked up.
When you make fun of poly people or people with neopronouns you're making it more likely for homophobes and transphobes outside our community to spread hate and violence against small, vulnerable communities. I don't care if you think it's cringe or a phase or whatever, don't give homophobes ammo and stand with other queer people, even ones you don't understand/don't like/don't agree with.

Hey hi future economist (bachelor student in quantitative econ) here!
These guys are the "vaccines cause autism" doctors of our field, PLEASE understand that.
You wanna know what happened in my uni when they published that formula? IT S A MEME. we re ALL (except the EXTREMELY FEW trumpians, who are mocked EVEN BY PROFESSORS) laughing at them.
These guys are a DISHONOUR to our field and should be radiated from it, but they are NOT to be taken as examples of what a sample economist is like.
You wanna know any of my professors' opinion on Trump? (and keep in mind these are renown scholars and academics at one of the world s top 20 social sciences universities, WHICH TO BE CLEAR IS NOT AN APPEAL TO AUTHORITY, I M SAYING THIS TO SAY *THE PROFESSORS* ARE RECOGNIZED WITHIN OUR FIELD TO BE EXTREMELY COMPETENT)
They think he s a goddamn idiot and ruining the world. AND that his understanding of economics is equivalent to believing an anvil falls faster than a feather because "it weighs more" or that the earth is flat.
They think the same about Trickle down Reaganomics btw.
And yes, I m pretty sure my macro teacher might commit ritual suicide just out of the shame those idiots have brought to the field. There hasnt been a single lecture where he didnt stop and proceed to add that trump is insane and doesnt know what he s doing.
Things have gotten so bad that the LIBERTARIAN CLUB is AGAINST Trump s economic policy. (yes, we have a libertarian club. yes, they are mocked by the entire studrnt body and faculty. yes, THEY STILL HATE TRUMP BC THEY UNDERSTAND ECON DECENTLY ENOHGH TO KNOW HE DOESNT KNOW SHIT).
As much as I may wish I had studied in another STEM field (notice I said another: my degree is quantitative enough to qualify for STEM scholarships, which is in fact how a signficant amount of my friends are attending in the first place. I will not hear disrespect to the mathematics of economics. We arent Physics or engineering, but we arent busisness or management either), Economics is not what Trump is doing.
PS: Sorry if the mood is all over the palce in my writing, please read the all caps bits not as angry screaming but rather as confused screaming bc seriously wtf is that man doing. wtf. wtf. wtf.
Also fun apropos of nothing: the only time I ever met a student from my uni who believed "tariffs lower prices" and that trump knew economics... she was a polisci student. And she s the minority even in her class.
it s almost as if the man who doesnt know antthing about most complex academic fields he legislates upon, *doesnt know anything ahout a field he s legislating upon*. Who could ve thought.

We need an economist version of ritual suicide because authentically I don't know how you go on living after dishonoring math like this - in public no less!

Oh god this kind of thing has been a wild dream of mine for years I'm so glad someone's living it!
New mark on my ttrpg bucket list
- Running a game of Masks: a New Generation and then running it with the same players and characters in another system like it's a spin off universe.
Everyone has to agree on an adjective to call the new characters by. I.e.; if Jonny had "Quick Shot" in Masks, we all call them "Ultimate Quick Shot" or "Absolute Quick Shot" in the new game
Bonus points on subtle reworks to characters kits to fit the new systems. Double bonus for players to discover in real time the tweaks to the mythos of their fellow characters in play.
Villains to mentors, friends to villains, the works

In a lot of vampire lore, being bitten by a vampire just once doesn't turn a human into a vampire, but some sort of a thrall, enchanted and seduced by the vampire's alluring ways, to make the victim more pliable and easy to feed from, and only a sufficiently prolonged and deliberate series of bites will turn the human victim into a vampire.
Which is compatible with the theory that italians are the opposite of vampires. While vampires cannot stand the sight of crosses, stepping into a church, or being exposed to garlic or sunlight, and cannot see themselves in a mirror, italians become miserable if they cannot have access to a church, crosses, direct sunlight, garlic, and getting to see themselves in a mirror.
Consequently, sensually biting the neck of an italian may enthrall one, but will not immediately turn you into an italian. But a sufficiently prolonged and deliberate series of bites may get one to marry you, therefore giving you an italian citizenship.

And at the ridicolously high amount of times Jan was threathened w being eaten/got put into someone s mouth/got eaten in the previous Ultimate continuity. Like, off the top of my head I think it was at least 4-5 times but I m definitely missing a bunch.
So this is defiantly a jab at how she died last time right?

What's that? IT'S NIETZSCHE WITH A STEEL CHAIR
God fell off his little stepladder
#how shall he comfort himself?#who will wipe the blood off him?#what water is there for him to clean himself?#what festivals of atonement shall he have to invent?#is not the greatness of his deed too great for him?#the answer to these questions and more at 11 pm

Fight.
For the sake of everything and everyone you know.
Fight.
Rage against the dying of the light, even when all seems to be ripped away.
Fight.
Never back down, never stop. Just keep fighting until everyone is safe. These are dark times and we MUST be there for everyone who needs it. Use this anger and hate and push it forward to make a difference, to change something in this world for the better when everything seems to be going to shit.
Just.
Fight.
#do not go gentle into that good night#old age should burn and rave at close of day#rage rage against the dying of the light#though wise men at their end know the dark is right#because their words have forked no lightning#they do not go gentle into that good night#good men the last wave by crying how bright#their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay rage rage against the dying of the light#wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight#and learn too late they grieved it on ita way do not go gentle into that good night#grave men near death who see with blinding sight#blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be#gay#rage rage against the dying of the#light#and you my father there on the sad height#curse bless me now with your fierce tears I pray#do not go gentle into that good night rage rage against the dying of the light.

Which only makes the silence more defeaning when Jason becomes robin
Robin (Dick Grayson) used to sing sometimes during patrol, always children's songs he would hear often when he was younger. This scares the shit out of criminals who think it's the ghost of a child haunting them, and Dick has no idea.
#headcanons that make robin as supernatural as batman my beloved#bonus: he got the habit from his mother who would hum songs whenever she was lost in thought#dc headcanon

Ok so I went down the list:
Ones I fully agree on you with: Damian, Barbara, Kate (duh), Duke (although I'd never considered the aro angle, thanks for bringing it up), Harper (although I ve not read her a lot, she does seem to give off those vibes).
Others:
Bruce- Demiromantic. Also, genderfluid, mostly between a masculine side and a nonbinary side (I will die o nthe hill that the Bat should use they/them or it/it pronouns)
Dick - Bisexual
Jason - Gay, but only really accepts it after his resurrection
Tim (and in my defense I developed this headcanon before bernard came along) - Demisexual, possibly biromantic but if so he hasnt fully realized yet
Cass - lesbian
Steph - bisexual
I have to admit, I hadnt really considered a lot of the aro-spec, ace-spec and gnc takes you bring up, and it s interesting. I can kinda see them on some characters but not all of them, I ll keep em in mind though. Good food for thought.
Edit: also I forgot to thank you bc I ve been dying for a reason to put all these headcanons somehwere and you gave me this amazing opportunity!
Batfam Pride Headcannons
Bruce - Bisexual
Dick - Biromantic, Demisexual
Jason - Asexual (sex-positive), Gay
Tim - Bisexual, (potentially gender-non conforming)
Damian - too young to figure out, but Jon makes his heart flutter in weird ways
Barbara - Straight, helluva ally
Cass - Asexual, Lesbian
Steph - Pansexual
Kate - Lesbian... like, canonically
Duke - Straight (potentially Aromantic)
Harper - Non-binary, Pansexual
let me know if y'all agree or not im curious
