Taylor Hawkins on Rikki Rockett:
“My first gig that I ever got was playing with this really nice girl from Canada named Sass Jordan, and I had a drumset that was mismatched - a couple cracked cymbals, a couple crappy cymbals, it’s what I had. I didn’t have a drum endorsement or anything yet. … I’m in the parking lot early, because I drove up from Orange County … this full on ZZ-top — what do they call them? (Dave: “I think it’s a hot rod.”) This hot rod pulls up and it’s got flames and stripes all over, and I’m like, ‘woah, look at that car!’. Out comes the drummer from Poison. … so of course, being like Dave, I go over and go, ‘woah dude, how are you doing, man?!’ and he was like, ‘Hey, who are you?’ I’m like, ‘I play drums with Sass Jordan’ and he goes, ‘oh I know her, where you guys rehearsing?’, I said ‘oh, room B’ or whatever. So he walks in and looks at my drumset and he looks at my cymbals, and he goes, ‘oh man, no no no. Come with me.’ So, a lot of people would store their gear at this rehearsal studio, so he takes me back to where they store their Poison gear, and he pulls out a bag of brand new Zildjian cymbals …and he’s like “, ‘here you go man, good luck. Just keep going for it, good luck, man.’ I literally went from having a bunch of cracked cymbals to a brand new set of cymbals. So I think Dave and I owe a lot to Poison, really, at the end of the day.” (x)
Chad Smith:
“There’s a music store called Guitar Center. …Dave and Taylor used to go in there all the time. The manager came to the guy that ran the percussion section and said, you know, I think something’s going on with Taylor Hawkins’ credit card. There must be some fraud or something because I see thousands of dollars over months of charges and I’ve never seen Taylor buy anything ever here.’ The guy that worked the counter and percussion section said: ‘no, they’re not fraud. Taylor would actually buy drum equipment- drum sets, sticks, cymbals- whatever was needed of any of the kids that he was hanging out with. They needed stuff, they needed equipment, and he knew how important it was to have good equipment. And he would just buy it for them and never tell anybody.” (x)

A customer contacted our team with questions, and then finished their email with: "I am daunted by the complexities and unknowns." I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since.

Reporter: Tell us Bruce, why have you recently decided to work out more? Do you just want to compete with our Clark? Or is it-
Bruce: My kids.
Reporter: I’m sorry what?
Bruce: I work out so I can still lift them.
Reporter: …
Bruce: if you have nothing else to ask I’m going to leave now. Let’s go Jaylad.
Bruce just picks up Jason and leaves.
Jason looks like a large dog that clearly isn’t used to being in the air.

Jason in the manor for movie night: How'd you convince B to let me in anyways? I thought I wouldn't get an invite till I dropped the real bullets.
Dick busy trying to wrangle Damian away from Tim and Titus away from the snacks: B is really bad at facing the words he throws around ya know? So I told him since it's my fault you died I should be responsible for bringing you home- Tim don't!!!
Jason: B said what!?!?

Bruce, running his plan for an undercover operation past the batkids chillin in the living room while post-‘knowing secret identities’ Bernard is there: -and then we will hustle the information out during pool, start stakes low and give them a false sense of security before winning
Bruce: obviously Tim will do that part
Bernard: Tim sucks at pool tho? He can barely make any in and, hell, I made it into culinary school with how many times I was sent to the kitchen to shoot after he hit the cue ball in
Dick: Tim? Our Tim? The one who wins every time? Who was the cause of the rule in the mansion against us ever playing pool
Damien: such a baby, gets stabbed one too many times by sore losers and just has to ruin it for the rest of us
Duke: Tim has hustled all of us outta so much money that at this point it is a part time job for him
Bernard: ??? Tim never wins against me?
All turning to Tim:
Tim, face completely red: he- he always gets so excited when he is winning and he just looks so cute- and his trash talk is basically just flirty banter- and it’s not my fault when he looks like THAT
Tim, shrugging: he just has an unfair advantage over the rest of you, like maybe if any of you were attractive you would start winning pool more too
Jason: and he wonders why he’s been stabbed so many times

tumblr users will have the most inaccessible, unreadable, low contrast, flashing carrd you can possibly imagine, with a dni full of insider acronyms with no translation and numerous link buttons labelled with cryptic captions, and then go ahead and put “ableists dni and kys!” on that carrd

RIP Annabeth, I just know Percy sacrificing himself for you, after knowing you for a week, after telling you that you’ve done more for him this week than his father ever has, is permanently altering the brain chemistry of your avoidant attachment self

the fact that the biggest smile we've seen on Percy's face so far is when he's petting that little lizard thing is just so
