This made me so happy. Never give up and follow your dreams.
Now that it’s getting colder and dark so early here are some cozy anthropomorphic illustration by Chris Dunn to warm your soul:
The older generation's fixation on forcing you to have kids is something they absolutely refuse to unlearn. You can give the calmest and most reasonable explanation for not having kids and the only thing they can think to say is, "But what of the heir to the lands?" "Who will inherit the throne?" "Please sire upon your barren death there will be a parochial schism that will soak our soils with brother-blood." They literally hate to see you happy with just a cat.

Why Bruce Wayne Is Autistic
i am 100% convinced this man is autistic. fight me. this post is specifically about battinson, but the other versions of batman also seem autistic to me (i am autistic myself so i should know). btw this is just my interpretation of what we saw of him in the movie, so sorry if any of this is wrong maybe i am just bad at analyzing stuff-
disclaimer: ignorant and ableist comments will be deleted
warnings : none
he is very soft spoken
monotone voice
eye contact seems difficult for him (either very intense or not at all)
"inappropriate" staring
his face doesn't show much emotion (but his eyes are so expressive)
seems socially awkward (same tbh lmao)
doesn't laugh at jokes (or doesn't understand them?)
doesn't reply to others sometimes (it could be that he's nonverbal occasionally or just needs more time to think of an answer)
needs to be reminded to take a shower or eat
sensitive to light (wears sunglasses indoors)
high pain tolerance
strong sense of justice
black and white thinking (thinking his dad was either a bad OR good person, viewing gordon as a good cop)
notices small details/patterns that others don't
special interest could be being batman and protecting gotham or building tools/upgrading the batmobile
hyper-empathy but can't really express it (example: for the mayor's son or selina)
prefers working alone
rejects social norms (doesn't really try to sound polite, immediately starts speaking to alfred when he woke up)
other people treat him like he's some fragile being or a child (many autistic people get treated like that, sadly). alfred did this but i know he only meant well (which makes sense since he practically raised him). falcone did it too but in a condescending way
also this doesn't have to do anything with battinson but look at this comic panel (from "batman the imposter") :
ideal gender: children’s cartoon villain who is intimidating for their first couple of appearances but afterwards is just treated with mild exasperation slowly morphing into a grudging fondness
"Mozart was autistic because he was a child prodigy who wrote whole pieces in a day" no Mozart was autistic because he used echolalia and always spoke the truth even though it got him violently ejected from his workplace and had no interest in marriage and had a childish personality and sense of humor and was routine-oriented and had a low frustration tolerance. the prodigy thing has almost nothing to do with it. I would like to see one scholar within my lifetime consider the posthumous diagnosis for ANY reason other than "little boy played music well." I take personal offense to the fact that despite his utter genius he's been considered immature by academics because of his mannerisms. where have I heard THAT one before?
they also might not be giants. let's not get our hopes up
