men were just built different in the 70s & 80s idk if it's the chest hair or actors not being forced into inhumane training regimes for movies but everything was so much more lush like those are free range organic male tits not the factory shit with chemicals in it

thematically, Batman needs to be a good father. 'but he's the dark knight! but he's vengeance and the night! but he's a loner!' yeah sure whatever, but that's over looking several crucial factors of his story. Batman's real enemy is societal corruption, it's what killed his parents, it's what makes it impossible for him to only throw money at Gotham to fix it, it's the source of basically all of his rogues. and you know what flies in the face of societal corruption? kindness, compassion, a willingness to try to improve oneself. Batman fights it on the ground, dismantling large crime families as much as he stops muggers and rapists. Bruce Wayne fights it with money, with charm, with charities riddled with more good people than bad. the societal corruption Batman and Bruce Wayne is fighting is a wealthy, white, uppercrust aristocracy. and you know what's a part of that aristocracy? toxic masculinity and a near pathological refusal to be close to people. if Batman is really going to be a story about fighting against society and a rich man trying to use his privilege for good Bruce Wayne has to be shown fighting that influence even within his own home, by reaching out to his kids and being soft and sweet with them and not a bullshit toxic male fantasy that punches them in the face to prove a point (looking at the fucking court of owls dick grayson issue) he doesn't have to be perfect but he HAS to be more good than bad.

you can make the argument of Batman seeing them as soldiers and Bruce Wayne seeing them as his kids and the inherent conflict between the two but he has. to be. a good. father.

this is the first time in years that tumblr has felt organic. No I will not elaborate 

in all seriousness taylor and redondo’s insistence on having babs be visibly abled is so disgusting. even if it’s not in his power to make her disabled again, he could at least try to not shove it in our faces by having her standing or walking. tynion only portrayed her as sitting in batman, and he did it well enough that the reader can almost forget that she’s abled. why can’t taylor do the same?

Tips for Reading with ADHD

(or without ADHD, if they help regardless)

Physical print:

cover the page with a piece of paper and reveal lines/paragraphs as you read them

use a highlighter to emphasize important/interesting parts

take notes as you go to be physically engaged with the material

Digital media:

copy and paste the text into a doc/word processor

change the font size/style/colour to something more legible

make your own paragraphs and spacing

copy and paste one paragraph at a time to isolate them from the distraction of the rest of the text

install a browser extension like BeeLine Reader or Mercury Reader

zoom in on the page and scroll slowly so you’re revealing lines as you read them

physically cover the screen and reveal lines as you read them

if you do better with physical media, print it out or find a physical copy

Both:

read out loud

pace, move around, or use a fidget while reading

set a timer for 5 minutes and read in small chunks with breaks in between

divide the material into sections and read one section at a time with breaks in between

have another person, audio book, or text-to-speech program read it aloud as you follow along
