Jane Austen really said ‘I respect the “I can fix him” movement but that’s just not me. He’ll fix himself if knows what’s good for him’ and that’s why her works are still calling the shots today.

writers and artists will go "this isn't good enough." my brother in christ, you're creating something new out of nothing and expressing yourself creatively. your productivity and unrealistic standards of perfection do not define you or the worth of your art. you're doing great.

Twitter users are defending their right to assume Picasso was a renaissance artist. Tiktok users think watching any film made outside the US makes you a snob. “Replace classic lit with YA and fan fiction” discourse is flourishing. I think we’re just living in anti intellectual times.

Gotham being a fuck up City once more
Gotham is a City with a lot of problems, Jason Todd knows it very well. And this is not about the pollution, corruption or the villains but the city itself is like that. The City is vile, dirty and knows how to make your old wounds bleed.
And sometimes Jason really hates Gotham because of this, the City plays with everyone and anyone. Oracle sent some messages to everyone, saying something about weird supernatural shit happens and everyone should be careful that night while Batman is working... Well Jason don't care.
Jason Todd is having a shit week and he is fucking tired! He just wants to go home and sleep - and maybe some beer and shower. Be the whatever shit is batman doing now it's definitely not his problem.
And Jason actually did it! He manages to avoid his siblings the whole way to the safe house. but before entering he sees a woman sitting against the door, his whole body freezes and he regrets not having paid attention to the warning because Jason knows that woman. And she definitely doesn't should be there.
"Jason" the woman got up and smiled at him, "look at you... You become so tall"
Jason's first instinct is run, but his body doesn't move, he barely can think
"look at your hands" Catharine keeps smiling and holds her son's hands, there's so much sweetie in her voice "I remember when you were a baby, your hands were so tiny, both of your hands fit in one of mine... look at you now... this time I'm the one who has to use two hands to hold one of yours"
Jason doesn't want to believe in it! She was dead! He knows it! She died years ago... But...but...
Catherine lets go of Jason's hand when she notices that her son is silent
"I understand, you must be angry with me... I'm sorry..." she starts to walk away, after all, what kind of mother was she?
That was enough for Jason to panic, whatever that was in front of him, he wasn't going to let it go that easily. He didn't understand why his parents always abandoned him, but whatever it was, he wanted to keep her there a little more
"I... I... I hurt people, mom..I hurt so many people" Jason doesn't know what makes him say that, at all the things he should say he chose. Why can't he do nothing right?
Catherine looks for her son again, She brings her hand to his face, wiping away the soft tears that have started to fall.
When did Jason start crying?
"You were trying to protect someone, weren't you? I know who you are Jason, you are my son, I raised you... you must have become such a smart man, do you still like books? I remember you loved going to the public library to read, it was a free trip so we walked there every weekend"
Jason hates it. Why Gotham keep tutoring him like that? Why Gotham keep doing this?
and the rest of the night the boy and his mom are just talking with each other in the same way they did before the drugs... She asked about the books he was reading at that time, his friends, if he had someone in his life...
They talked for hours but not enough... And then she disappears before the sun rises followed by the Oracle message "situation over control now, everything will be normal for now on"
And Jason starts sobbing on the floor again. He definitely hates how Gotham plays with everyone

Fun fact: Dick became Robin after they stopped Zucco in all of the different interpretations.
Does Dick go out, looking for the murderer of his parents ? Yes. But he is not Robin yet.After they solved the crime and Zucco is arrested/dead (depending on the version), that's when he becomes Robin.
It is the conclusion of Dark victory. The end of the flashbacks in Batman Year Three.
Robin comes from a desire to help and avoid having his tragedy happen to someone else.

Wait when was Katara called homophobic? I've seen/heard all the other bull ppl drag her through but not that.
the homophobic katara take came with the resurgence of the atla fandom and its new stans.
basically over the summer.
this “joke” was made primarily in the zu/kka fandom and by a lot of the new stans to either isolate her, get her out of the way of of their ship, or villify her. either way, it’s racist and a complete disservice to her character.

League Headcanons:
The League is basically a whole country
The Al Ghuls definitely hosts a Harvest festival
There are different League bases but everyone comes together to celebrate the Harvest festival
They gossip. They gossip hard
The kids admire Talia a lot
I just know some people were pissed when Talia got married to Bruce
The League has amazing health benefits including dental
Assassins get good pay
They get paid vacations
Most of them will never turn to the "good side" because of the benefits they receive
Assassins are allowed to have pets (What do you guys think of this?)
If an assassin doesn't want to be an assassin "anymore" they can be positioned to work at any Al Ghul owned business. This includes hotels, animal conservatories and etc
Housing is provided for missions
Sometimes you can choose to be either an assassin or spy
They have a choice to move to the Snake Nest for retirement

Please, for the love of god, please don’t be this person. No matter how long it’s been since an update, no matter how many unfinished stories are sitting on their account, no matter what - do not be this person.
Not only is it insanely rude, but you also do more damage than you think be being such a self-entitled ass about something someone created for free and for fun. “This author” can see what you say.
RIP decency indeed.

Honestly I fear what DC will do with Damian and Mara and also Mara's mother (we still don't know nothing about her mother I fear 'oh his father actually rape her mother' backstory...)
And if someone says 'oh you're paranoid about this' ...but I'm not being paranoid this happens a lot and if you don't believe in me I say Duke Thomas ... Why DC put this in all those stores...
Plz stop making brown ppl obsessed with yt people. Ras rapey towards Tim for an heir, Talia rapes bruce for an heir,
I hope Damian never ages up and meets a woman cuz we know whats coming next 😭

Alright, to ao3's soon to be arriving Wattpad Refugees, a basic guide to general user culture:
1.) Unlike Wattpads vote system that let's you like each chapter, the ao3 equivalent kudos only allows one per work. Everyone is generally quietly annoyed about this. To engage with each chapter, you're heavily encouraged to comment. Trust me, it makes people's day.
2.) Ao3 has no algorithm. By default it's latest updated work first. You can find things to your taste through searches, filters and tags.
3.) 'No archive warnings apply' and 'user has chosen not to use archive warnings' mean two very different things. No archives warnings means the work is free from any content that could require a warning tag (character death, graphic depictions of violence, non-con, etc). User has chosen not to use archive warnings means it could contain any of the warning content, be it hasn't been explicitly tagged. Treat it like an allergen. No archive warnings apply is allergen free. User has chosen not to use archive warnings, may contain traces or whole chunks of the allergen. If you're likely to have a bad reaction, maybe don't take the risk.
4.) Speaking of warnings, ao3 has very few restrictions on the type of work that's allowed. Whatever your personal thoughts or feelings on that are, thats how the site is. You're likely to run across some dark subject matters and a lot of people are uncomfortable with reading that. You're well within your rights not like these works and have your opinion on whether they should be allowed, but harassing the authors of such works (or any works) is more likely to come back on you than them. Ao3 operates on a strong policy of 'don't like, don't read'. Use the tagging system to your full advantage to only engage with the kind of works you want to see.
We look forward to welcoming you all and seeing the fantastic works you create. Happy writing!

I ship this ship because:
I have eyes
I can see
I am the smartest person in the room
I receive divine revelations about them in the dead of night, alone in my chambers

I’m sorry, guys but its far more important for Damian to bond with his mom and dad than it is for him to bond with Tim Drake. This might come as a shock to some of you but It might be important for Damian to have a good relationship with his parents and not… your fav batfam character.
I got called weird and said “I had no idea what I was talking about” for saying this by the way…
