Exactly, Like This Is Exactly The ‘don’t Yuck My Yum’ Shit We Learned In Kindergarten

happy pride

oh the blessing and the curse of having a good film adaptation of a fandom you love

Somewhere across the country, Dick Grayson just burst into tears of pride and doesn’t know why

the dialogue around babs and her disability is so cooked because if there was some understanding that disabled people with a mobility aid — whether it be a chair, a frame, a walking stick, a scooter, prosthesis, whatever — aren’t “trapped” by the devices designed to help them navigate the world we wouldn’t be stuck having the same reductive conversations. kim yale and john ostrander reintroduced babs as a disabled woman who took pride in her intelligence and abilities and saw her wheelchair as a means of reclaiming her independence and autonomy. she removes the handles on the chair because no one, whether it be her father or batman or darkseid, gets to push her around. taking that from her is an act of violence, whether ur tom taylor who can’t envision a world where disabled people are respected and capable unless they are magically cured, or a random online who thinks stealing the wheels off someone’s wheelchair is funny

When referring to Dick, Jason, Tim, and Damian:

Batboys doesn’t work cause that includes Duke

Robins doesn’t work cause that includes Steph

So I propose a new and improved name:

~The Assholes~

It’s straightforward, it’s classy, it rolls off the tongue, it’s in character for all of them

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk

a chill goes down my spine each time these posts begin appearing on my feed

nothing like ao3 being down to remind you what little joy the rest of life brings you

DC characters as actual things my family has said: Part 2

~at a very fancy restaurant~

Bart: Woah there’s a lot of French on this menu, oh! Speaking of French guess what I learned on Duolingo today

Cassie: What’d you learn?

Bart: When they say ‘cat’ in French they pronounce it ‘shat’! You know like sat but with an ‘sh’

Tim: Bart please stop talking

Bart: No it’s true! They say ‘shat’! S-H-A-T. Like if Kon was a French cat I’d say “Look there’s the shat right there!”- why are you laughing

Kon: Bart, um do you know what shat means in English? Come here (whispers for a moment in his ear)

Bart: IT MEANS SHIT?? WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME!

Bart: oh sorry

Cassie: just kill me now

@vinelark you know what’s up. the art style is half the reason why I constantly reread cass’s batgirl run

Band AU but Fleetwood Mac style where the entire band consists of the bitchest and pettiest exes possible and then there’s that one character in the corner who just wants to make cool music with his friends
