Don’t Worry, You Still Driving Me Crazy

I saw this after getting out of the pool, holy fuck

🛟

Imagine Kingston was an actor when he was younger so he was in this movie and they actually get Lou to just come in to set for one day and play a young Kingston, playing a weird character 

wherever he is.

Can’t wait for that man to be the most supportive father ever

Watching never stop blowing up has made me realize that 80s action movies would probably be my favorite genre if it weren't for homophobia/lack of representation being a thing.

Kingskin being a bisexual king running into his exes around every corner, characters just being fine with it when the PCs accidentally refer to the characters with different pronouns, when Jack/Paula talks about his ex husband to a bar tender and hes just like

"my ex husband is in Tampa, he got a new boyfriend :( "

and jacks like "HES GAY?" Right after talking about his ex husband.

Background characters having top surgery scars, real excited for the complicated mess that's probably gonna be Jennifer drips and Matilda Drops.

Brennan Lee Mulligan is just so aggressively an ally and I love him so much for it. That man has so much love and support in him.

Art is a kindness

the suffering never ends

Finally, the family dynamic we need

Cousins ​​annoying each other

I like the fact that all of them have good based names, and then there’s Oscar.

sometimes i think about if i ever gave mochi and lime & co actual real names

Instead of all the dinosaurs taking over the park, weeds just fill up the entire area, making it look bad for tourists

And then Jeff Goldblum says life finds a way as you look at a shrub 

old gods are waking

That’s what I think makes him such a good Superman, they make his fear be his own powers. They make the reason for his abilities, be his essential dread and his wish to be normal makes sense with it too.

MAWS clark has me so devastated actually because he’s so kind, he’s so full of love for earth and all the people who care about him and it’s his biggest fear that he is a weapon. lois and jimmy are scared for him to see the hologram with the other, evil supermans because they just know that it would break him. they know it themselves it’s his worst fear to be a weapon! to be capable of such hurt! gosh, he just wants to save people, that’s all he wants

This, this is the Batman that we don’t get to see as much anymore. The hero that can show that someone broke doesn’t have to break others to fix themselves. Someone who doesn’t stop criminals by beating them into submission but by helping them so they can heal. He is the hero that can show that bad people could just be hurt and just need help. I’ve seen people say that marvel is better because they deal with real problems while dc is more fantastical, but the thing I always see when looking at both is that marvel is how people are, struggling to be kind always trying, even when they fight on ideals they are kind. But dc is what we wish things were, an ideal world where there are hundreds of people all trying to see people and make things better and showing that everyone can change for the better. We lost both of those things but thankfully they are starting to come back , a little slow for Batman but I can see it, and I can’t wait for the old hero’s to be good again.

I am. So fucking tired of Batman being portrayed as a bad parent and a toxic person. And it’s so goddamn widespread. Fuck, it might be as bad as the whole “Superman being a kindhearted Boy Scout is boring” take.

I get it, the man’s not exactly stable, he watched his parents get murdered in front of him and spent years of his life training to fight crime dressed like a giant scary bat, of course he’s not perfect.

But to say that Bruce Wayne isn’t caring, isn’t empathetic, to call him abusive…it just misses the point of who the character is to me.

Why do you think he fights crime? Yes, part of it is because he’s bitter and sad because his parents were cruelly ripped from him as a child, and he’s lashing out against the corruption of his city. It’s arguably the focus of his earlier years. But he learns to become more than that. He learns to bring hope, a chance to be better.

Harleen Quinzel is the Joker’s right hand lady, but she’s also a victim of an abusive relationship and a woman with a surprisingly strong moral compass and a love for animals, and wants to get better. That’s why we see time and time again that he has a noticeable soft spot for her, because he knows that she’s a good person at her core.

Harvey Dent is a man who will decide someone’s fate on a coin toss(and a pretty inaccurate depiction of DID), but he’s also Bruce’s close friend who clearly needs help learning to live with his condition, rather than try to get rid of it, and someone who he still goes out of his way to visit, even after everything, because he recognizes he’s not just a criminal with a weird gimmick, he’s a man who is struggling with a condition that he’s mishandled his whole life.

Victor Fries is a cold, emotionless man who will callously discard allies and blame them for being careless, but he’s also a man who’s either lashing out because he had the love of his life taken from him, or just desperate to make sure she isn’t taken from him, and is willing to do anything just to guarantee her survival. Of course Batman would understand, his whole life was defined by having people he loved taken away from him.

Even the Joker, arguably one of the most morally bankrupt characters in all of fiction, is someone that Batman has offered a chance to. After the guy shoots the daughter of his friend, a girl he cared for like she was his own kid, and paralyzes her from the waist down, he tells the Joker that he doesn’t want to hurt him. He wants to get him help. He looks at this monster who has taken countless lives and says “You don’t have to be alone.”

For fuck’s sake, he sat with Joe Chill in his last moments so that he wouldn’t be alone. Joe Chill, the man who murdered his parents, who took so much from him, the person responsible for all of the misery and suffering he’s gone through. And he sits with the man to comfort him while dies. Do you know how much emotional intelligence and maturity that must take? To comfort someone who arguably ruined your life?

And you’re gonna tell me the man who did that would abuse his kids?

That he’d hold up the young man whose death was his greatest failure, the boy he grieved, and say this?

That he’d look his goddamn son in the eyes and say this to him?

Why the FUCK do you think he took in Dick Grayson in the first place? It wasn’t because he saw the kid and thought “Ah. A potential soldier.”, it was because he saw a boy experiencing the same heartbreaking loss he had so many years ago, and wanted to make sure he didn’t end up as bitter and miserable as he was.

Why do you think he smiled when Tim Drake presented him a broken watch for Father’s Day? Because he was just happy to see the boy alive and safe.

DAMIAN LITERALLY POINTED AT A COW AND SAID “I’m keeping her. She’s Bat-Cow.” AND BRUCE JUST WENT WITH IT. DIDN’T EVEN NEED TO ARGUE WHY BRUCE SHOULD LET HIM KEEP HER. HE SAID “this cow is my pet now” AND BRUCE SAID “aight, bet”.

The thing about Batman is that he wants to make sure nobody else ends up feeling the way he does. That’s not just about stopping a mugger so a boy’s parents aren’t gunned down. It’s about giving his loved ones the support and care that he couldn’t have, because it was taken from him. It’s about comforting someone who just went through a traumatic experience and letting them know that they’re going to be okay. It’s about going to someone locked away in a cell who thinks that they’re a lost cause and a burden to society and telling them that he wants to help them get better. It’s about EMPATHY and COMPASSION.

That’s what makes him a HERO. He’s meant to inspire us, to show us that we can have that same empathy for others around us, that we can turn our suffering into hope for a better future.

I just wish more people at DC would start recognizing that. But I might as well follow that example myself. Maybe through this struggle of having to see this hero mistreat the people around him and act like a grade-A jackass, people will start to recognize that missing compassion, and slowly but surely, it might come back. After all, what is this post, if not trying to bring attention to the matter in the hopes of fixing it?
