I love tiger snakes. Tiger snakes love harsh lighting conditions. This one took a lot of work to get an acceptable shot.

I saw this post about Damian becoming a prosecutor and Harvey is so proud of him for it.

Thoughts?

DUUUDE I love that a lot, but also:

Damian becoming Gotham’s Steve Irwin. That boy would OBSESS.

Catch his mute footsteps slithering along the mansion’s hissing floorboards, with his mother’s infamous agility, sneaking into the cinema to watch documentaries at 6 AM.

Two-Face having multiple heart attacks when he catches their tiny demon glued to the TV.

“Why aren’t you in bed right now?”

“ Why can’t you talk to aligators?”

Bruce knows Damian does this, but he’d absolutely gaslight Harvey into thinking their little terror sleeps all night. He’s not at all going into the sewage system to leave treats for the critters.

Also; Harvey as the father whom VEHEMENTLY forbids Damian from bringing wild animals into their home. A dog? Fine. A cow? Better than a spider. A goddam dragon? Sure, why not.

“You get that damn rat OUT of my house RIGHT now, kid!”

“This is my BABA’S HOUSE, you vile, fatulous, sanctimonious scumbag!”

He gets his youngest sibling rights revoked. They’re given to Jason for a whole week. It’s simultaneously hilarious and terrible and it’s Harvey’s revenge against Bruce for sure.

I really don't like the way people talk about snakes, especially here in Australia. I know a lot of folks are afraid of them and phobias are real and valid but the sheer hatred some folks have for them just makes me sad.

Like I just saw a tik tok of a beautiful wild carpet python climbing off someone's roof into a tree and in the video the person filming is going on about how feral and gross it was, and telling her kid (off screen) how they're so gross and ucky. Based off his voice the kid seemed to be having a good time watching it but the person filming just kept reiterating how ucky it was until he started repeating it back. I get teaching your kids to stay away but you can do that without demonising an important part of our ecosystem.

And my god, the comments. "The only good snake is a dead snake" "it needs a good shovel to the head" etc

I had a bunch of similar comments filtered from when I posted videos of my snake (an albino carpet python named nugget) when he was unwell too. I was posting in hopes someone would know a way to make his vet treatment less stressful on him. I even put content warnings on some of the videos of him because I respect that some people just really don't like them and I wanted to give those folks the chance to just scroll away. You don't have to like them, but why do so many people feel the need to be so mean to them/about them.

Nugget is doing fine now btw.

Glad to see more of Aaron Blabey's books are getting movie adaptations. My man used to struggle, but now he is succeeding!

And he got more coming up.
