Really, REALLY good article that helps put a lot of the shit I've been seeing lately into perspective, along with highlighting the weird intersectionality and social concepts that inform transmasculine issues and why they're difficult to discuss (and also makes me glad that I've like...rarely ever seen any of the Toxic Transmasculinity this article talks about holy hell)

im not gonna lie the locked tomb has so massively skewed my standards for books that at this point when i say "i want to read a another book like tlt" i don't necessarily mean any sort of similarity with regards to character or plot specifics, i literally just mean "i want to read a book that not only fun but also good"

Haunted Car Au part 13
Previous. Masterpost
“You done figuring out the sound files yet?” Duke asked while tapping on the hood of the Batmobile.
He was excited to hear a campy “Yes, Sir!” Come out of the open windows of the car.
“Neat, first off, any files that have your name in it?” He was a little disappointed, but still snorted to hear the tragic ‘Noooooo’ from Darth Vader.
“I think Red Robin has some pronoun type files in there, what are yours?” A mix of sir’s, dude's, and bro's were played until Duke had to stop the guy.
“Ok, what about age?” He wasn't expecting to get a straight answer, but when the car played a Scooby-Doo cut of ‘those meddling kids’, he was confused.
“So a kid?” Duke questioned. He got a weird mix of 'Ehhh', 'Kinda', and 'close enough' type files.
“We can worry about that later, any ideas how you got stuck?” A short ‘Nope’ with a pop on the P played.
Talking to the car guy was strange. Getting answers could be easy or turn into 20 questions trying to clarify an answer. So far, Duke knew the person:
is male or male presenting
a meta
has no clue how he possessed the car
has a good understanding of current memes
was possibly in their teens (probably a bit younger than Duke, but older than Daimian)
was a street kid? (When asked where he lived the car played “Why should I worry” from an older Disney movie about homeless animals in New York or something. He had to look it up.)
has a good sense of humor
and is taking their situation in stride.
Duke really had to wonder what their life has been where this is not a vast problem to fix…. And whether or not he should argue his ‘notification tone’ being a choir singing.
He really does not get paid enough for this, but it is better than the other stuff Gotham throws at the Bats.
“Mind if I get you up on the lift and check the engine? Might give us some clues.” After an affirmative from the car guy, Duke got to work.

i think it would be funny if jon and martin showed up for one episode acting like gerry that one time. just, UGH this was our HOLIDAY we thought we were free from the horrors but we'll give you some advice, I GUESS. they are the least most helpful people on earth, only serving to make everyone more curious.
and then they disappear, never to be seen again.

On another riveting episode of “things I saw on TikTok that almost made me have a stroke":
I saw a post where someone said that the age difference of like 1 year between Bekendorf and Silena is "problematic". AND that the age difference between Will and Nico is also problematic, and anyone in the comments that was saying that there is nothing wrong with that age gap was automatically called a "Pedo defender"….
I-… I think I lost literal brain cells from seeing that post cause, HUH???? Tf do you mean that a 1-2 year age gap is now problematic???
#1. Who gives a shit?? They are literally fictional characters!!
#2. What? Are we now saying that unless the two characters you’re shipping together are born in the same year, in the same month, at the same time, then it’s problematic and "illegal"???
Give me a fuckin break!! 🤦♀️🤦♀️

"Picture a plant that's all roots, except for an occasional fruit popping up above-ground. No stems or leaves. It gets all its food from the dirt. Got it? Cool, that's what a mushroom is. Mushrooms are the fruits of the fungus underground."
"That can't be right."
"Oh, not if you ask a real scientists; fungus aren't really plants any more than they're animals, but it's functionally accurate."
"Huh. So I can call a mushroom a fruit?"
"Sure, if you want to piss off the real scientists. Cucumbers really are fruits though, at least going by plant categories instead of food categories. Vegetables don't exist."
"What??"
"Carrots are roots, lettuce is leaves, broccoli is flowers. Vegetables are just edible plant parts that aren't sweet enough to be called fruit. Or berries. Though there's some overlap."
"Right, I heard strawberries aren't really berries; something about the seeds?"
"Yup. Though the real freaky weirdos are the figs."
"...Do I want to know?"
"Not during mealtime! Enjoy."
