Rant ahead on why Babs is the Bats technology expert:
It's literally time. Bruce would be the best, especially when he had Harold around, but he was/is a CEO, a father, Batman, does a lot of charity work in his free time, a 'playboy' (depending on what comic/etc), an inventor (I believe he helped come up with at least most if not alot of the stuff he uses as Batman, Dick, unless I'm proven differently, just named them, and he helps out in the R&D department of Wayne Enterprises, or is that just Tim/Lucius?), and more.
What is she? A Librarian or tech support, I think and Batgirl/Oracle. Oh, Dick's 'side piece'. (Dick's her 'side piece' also.) That's it.
If Bruce had more time he be the one doing all their technology crap. Tim also but Tim, unless I'm wrong is/was the CEO, goes to school, gets his GED, helps out with the Titans, and more.
Barbara has more time. Bruce doesn't. Tim doesn't. That's literally why she is in charge of their technology. She had/has more time to keep up with technology than either of them does.
The 'side piece'? Is because it certainly seems like that's all she is now. A damn side piece. Just like Dick is one to her. They can't put them by themselves anymore. They have to be together and they don't need to be. Both are better off apart than together.

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!
do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!

Do you ever write a sentence and then realize “Nah, that’s too self aware for you” and backspace a bunch of times.

Being kink positive makes it really hard to be a hater of media rip. I used to love watching “the WORST book I’ve read this year” booktube videos but now its like I hear them ask, “Who is this werewolf smut even for?” Omegaverse fans, next question. “Why would you write this?” Because they find it sexy, can we stop focusing on the ewie yucky kink part and focus on the fact that the author used the word knot five times in a single scene? It’s bad werewolf erotica, but it’s not bad because it’s werewolf erotica like come on

if you're trying to get into the head of your story's antagonist, try writing an "Am I the Asshole" reddit post from their perspective, explaining their problems and their plans for solving them. Let the voice and logic come through.

The best quality a fictional man can have is being deeply, pathetically, wretchedly in love with someone, I think
