Could someone recommend literally any comic from DC? It can be about any character, setting, or timeline. I’ve been itching to binge something new. So far I’ve mostly only read Batman comics.

It would be much appreciated 😔❤️

Okay but seriously tho, Deadpool and Wolverine would’ve been 10x better if Wade and Logan got together.

Or at the very least, it should not have ended with Wade getting with Vanessa again. She’s great but it’s clear no one knows how to write her in an actual relationship with Wade. Instead, they keep having to find reasons on why she can’t be dating Wade in the movie.

Meanwhile, Wade has fantastic chemistry with Logan. They’re both immortal, so neither has to worry about the other dying. They’re both kind of fucked up but in opposite ways. They understand each other while also having contrasting personalities to make their scenes interesting. (Also there was a lot of implications in that Honda Odyssey scene lmfao)

It just feels like they’re scared to have Deadpool be openly queer. He is canonically pansexual, but they only really imply it. Vanessa is a good character but it just feels like she’s overstayed her welcome. Why break them up again and again? Just keep it so they stay friends instead of partners.

Just one kiss, Disney. Just let them have one kiss.

1. That Jason tried to kill Tim when he attacked him at the Titan’s Tower. He beat my boy up but did not try to kill him even after he knocked Tim out.

2. Also that Tim was a sobbing mess the whole time. Lmao right before Jason K.O’ed him he was like “do you still think you’re better than me?” and Tim was like “yeah.” 💀💀

3. Tim’s favorite Robin is Jason. It’s Dick! He was such a Dick Grayson fanboy.

4. Pit madness.

What's the worst lie the popular batfam fanon has made you believe?

I'll start:

'Worst' might be an exaggeration, but the fanon that says Jason is Bruce's favorite son.

Y’all how do you pronounce Damian’s little “Tt”?

Because everyone I know has said it differently. I’ve heard it pronounced “tsk” “tut” and “tit”, which is wild honestly.

I’ve always just pronounced it like the letter T lmfao

I’m being so fr when I say that I was actually depressed the whole day when I found out he died. Never emotionally recovered.

“People aren't tools. We aren't born with any set role.”

And I could only think about him

This but I’d like to add that with the amount of Greek gods on Troy’s side who were salty about the loss, there’s no way that they would’ve let Astyanax be peacefully raised by Odysseus.

The gods would’ve, as Zeus put it, 100% have let Astyanax know that his real father is Hector, who was killed alongside the rest of the kingdom by the side Odysseus was on. That he was being raised by the man who (unintentionally) started the Trojan war that got his people killed.

That alone could’ve been enough to make Astyanax lose his shit, but I’d imagine the gods would’ve done some even more fucked up stuff to make sure that Astyanax is brutal when he gets his revenge, making it as tragic as possible.

So, as awful as it was, Odysseus’s best bet was to kill Astyanax. You can’t be sure that Astyanax would’ve had mercy for Odysseus because he spared his life and raised him from infancy when the gods could easily poison his mind.

"Odysseus could have raised Astyanax as his own son! He shouldn't have killed him! Zeus is just an idiot who doesn't understand anything about children!"

Imagine you are Astyanx. Imagine that one day, you discover that your father, the man you thought was your father, is actually the murderer of your real father, who stole you from your cradle. Imagine that for years, you see your father lying to everyone, but the thought never crossed your mind that he might be lying to you. How do you know he didn't take you to ensure Troy would have no heir to the crown? That he took you to one day make you a puppet king in Troy for him? He's such a good liar, how do you know he wasn't lying when he looked you in the eye and said, "I love you, my son."

You know that your father—no, he's not your father, never was—did terrible things, but it never crossed your mind that you were one of the terrible things he did. You are a Trojan prince. You are Hector's son. You are not a little orphan from the battlefield that Odysseus took pity on. Odysseus destroyed your city. Odysseus lied to you. Odysseus has manipulated you. And Odysseus will PAY.

So many Greek tragedies tell about exactly this - about the attempt to prevent a tragedy, and about how the attempt failed, just as the gods and prophets had warned. If Astyanax had stayed alive, he would have murdered Odysseus' family no matter what Odysseus did, because that's how Greek tragedies work.

and yes, zeus suck.

I think it’s hilarious how Tim Drake sounds like someone’s self insert but he’s not.

This kid met Dick when he was super young, remembered it so vividly that he recognized his acrobatics in Robin (while he was stalking both Robin and Batman without them knowing), and realized Dick is Robin and Bruce is Batman. Then he keeps it a secret for years until Jason dies and he goes up to Bruce and convinces him that he should let Tim be Robin. AND IT WORKS. Then when he’s sent to go train he catches the eyes of freaking Lady Shiva and she trains him because she thinks he might be able to kill her eventually. Then he’s sent back to Batman and he is a fantastic Robin for a long time.

That literally sounds like fanfiction, but he is very real and very loved. Just shows no matter how self indulgent a story might sound, you should still write it anyways because it CAN be good.

I’m just imagining Bruce trying to emulate Dick’s acrobatics and pulling a muscle because HE IS AN OLD ASS MAN.

GET OUT OF THAT COSTUME BRUCE WHAT ARE YOU DOING

Someone’s gotta tell DC writers that tossing around a superhero mantle like it’s hot potato is NOT the way to go 💀💀

The thunder saga EASILY just skyrocketed to my top 3 sagas in Epic

All of the songs were bangers.

This helps so much thank you!!! I appreciate you took the time to make this <3

The worst part of getting into Batman is that I can’t tell which Robin it is half the time. All these mfs are drawn the same in the comics

Why Tim’s new vigilante codename should be Crow

We all agree that Tim needs a new codename. And we all agree that “Drake” is just plain shitty. Red Robin was swiped from Jason and it was only supposed to be a temporary identity anyways. While the Red Robin yuuumm puns are funny, it is acknowledged by many fans, and even characters in the comics, that Tim needs to move on and stop clinging so hard to the past. Which is why I nominate a new codename: Crow.

Reason #1

It sticks with the bird theme, which keeps his connection to the family without being a copycat or staying stuck in the past

#2

Crows are extremely intelligent birds. Hell, they’re one of the most intelligent animals. Tim’s whole shtick is that he’s the smartest member of the smartest family on earth.

#3

Crows have excellent memories and remember human faces, which is a little nudge at Tim being a secret identity cracker. He figured out Robin and Batman’s identities when he was 9. And figured out Impulse’s the first day they met.

#4

Crows are seen as bad omens and that ties into the whole Bat fear aspect

#5

Ever heard of the story of the Rainbow Crow? Queer Tim rights.

Also the story symbolizes the value of selflessness and service, which is what Tim starting up as Robin 3 was all about

#6

Personally I think Black Bat and Crow would be amazing partners, they’d be equals in a way that Batman and Robin could never truly be

Also they’d be way scarier, Gotham rouges beware

#7

They hold funerals for their dead

My favorite thing is when English lit nerds write fanfics about Jason Todd. Adds so much charm to his character when he actually references and debates more obscure novels. You can actually feel like he adores literature.

No matter the context I will never ever enjoy seeing modern slang (rizz, cap, or god forbid yeet) in fanfics. It makes me viscerally cringe every time.

Theory:

Gege is going to raise Toji back from the dead one last time to fight Sukuna. The real battle will be which one gets the most meat riding from gege.

Losing hope in the jjk manga honestly..

Why tf is everything so goddamn rushed? Can we let things breathe for like 5 minutes? You can’t just skip over important scenes for characters and have a paragraph of text explain what happened. Stop telling me what happened SHOW ME. I never expected Gojo to get out of this fight alive but you’re telling me he got off screened and was like ‘guys Sukuna is actually so much stronger than me and I died with no regrets lol!’ THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF THAT ANYWHERE IN THE PREVIOUS CHAPTERS. AND THEY DIDNT EVEN SHOW THE ATTACK THAT KILLED HIM?

And they don’t show any reactions of the characters who just fucking lost their teacher and friend? Some probably take it as a sign of Gojo coming back but I really doubt it. Gege just doesn’t give a shit about pacing this right and giving a good send off to characters. He’s just burning through plot point after plot point to get through the manga and finish it. Like cmon.

dear non-spanish speakers writing spiderverse fanfiction (or anything with spanglish),

in spanglish you don’t switch by word, you switch by phrase.

it’s not:

“[first part of the sentence in english], [second part of the sentence in english], mi amor.”

“[full english sentence], querida.”

it’s:

“[first part of the sentence in english], [segunda parte de la frase en español], mi amor.”

also miles is boricua, miguel is mexican. they have two different accents and use different vocabulary for certain words.

also miles is “nyourican” - a puerto rican native to new york - while his mom is directly from the island, so there are differences there, too, because his spanish is more influence by new york english. 

here’s some good references that aren’t google translate (which usually pulls from spain, a country that speaks vastly differently from latin america)

SpanishDict

WordReference

here have some random videos on different slang/spanish accents:

Puerto Rico

Mexico (1) (2)

-

in spanish most words are gendered, so most feminine words end in a and masculine/gender neutral words end in o. adding ito/ita makes something cuter, smaller and more affectionate.

spanish nicknames that aren’t “mi amor”

“querido/a” - darling

“cariño” - dear (always masculine regardless, of who its being said to)

“mi princesa/príncipe” - my prince/princess

“mi rey/reina” - my king/queen

“papí/mamí” - can be used in any way; romantic, sexual, familial for one’s parent or child, or just platonically

“tesoro” - treasure

also spanish is a language that uses adjectives as terms of affection both cute ones and ones that might sound insensitive in english

gordo (fat), flaco (skinny), negro (black), blanco (white), linda (pretty), bella (beautiful), morena (brown skin), etc.

and like most languages that are not english, spanish has multiple ways of saying i love you.

“te amo” - romantic

“te quiero” - familial, platonic (although there’s nothing wrong with using it romantically)

see also:

te adoro - i adore you

te deseo - i want you

te necesito - i need you

 and, of course, they can vary regionally too.

please use this because i have read a lot of really well written things that take me out of it because the use of spanglish is terrible. don’t just go on your presumptions that spanish/spanglish works in the same way that english does.

buena suerte, gringos.

So is gege just never gonna bring up what Uro said while sighting Yuta about the Fujiwara clan? Like Yuta doesn’t even care? Or did I just miss something

Asexual and Aromantic Survey

I am currently writing a book about the experiences of those on the asexual and aromantic spectrums! As part of my research, I’m trying to compile as many personal stories as I can to include in the work - to which end, I’ve created a survey.

I’m hoping to put together a personal story of my respondents, exploring the challenges we face, the way our orientations intersect with other aspects of our identity such as disability and race, how we navigate relationships, and so on. How long the survey takes will depend on how much detail you want to go into; you could probably breeze through in a few minutes, though longer and more detailed answers will be a huge help to me.

If you are in any way ace or aro (including grey-ace/aro, demi, etc), it would mean the world to me if you filled in the survey; and if you’re not, please do spread it around! The survey will not collect your details (other than what you choose to share, of course).

Here is the link to the survey.

Sukuna vs Gojo is only just beginning, but let us gather here and hope that Satoru survives this.

Not trying to be dramatic, but this man holds my will to live in his hands, haha. 😃

I’m just going to pretend like nothing in jjk is happening and read all those canon divergent fics.

So like… in the recent csm chapters Asa is being saved by chainsaw man, and they have a cute talk about how to keep living even if it’s hard (even if Denji ruined it by saying he just wants to have tons of sex lmfao) .

I always assumed in the manga that his voice is distorted when he’s in that form, but in the anime his voice is as clear as day. So is Asa just not going to recognize Denji’s very distinct voice in the anime when they get around to animating her arcs?

Maybe theyll fix the voice in later seasons but I think it’d be hella funny if they pull some Miraculous Ladybug shit and just have everyone be clueless about the secret identity of chainsaw man… while it’s literally just Denji’s voice screaming when he’s in that form.

This couple is more like Adrienette than I thought 😭

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god
