Do you ever sit down and realize that batman is the superhero version of that one dad with a fannypack thats seems to have everything you need inside of it
Bed is comfy cozy. Work is not.
for the love of god if you’re writing deaf/mute characters and they’re using sign language to talk PLEASE use quotation marks, don’t do just italics or brackets or whatever other thing it is people do. sign language is STILL A LANGUAGE. just because it’s not spoken doesn’t mean it’s not real dialogue. if you’re writing someone speaking spanish, do you write their dialogue like ‘[the flower district is down south,] she said in spanish’ like NO!!! IT DOESN’T WORK LIKE THAT, USE QUOTATIONS MARKS AND JUST SAY THEY SIGNED.
just know that you can describe their facial expressions! or how flowy their hand movements are, if they move excitedly or animatedly when happy, if they’re slamming their hands and moving aggressively when angry, how their brows scrunch or how rigid their hands get, you can still be creative and describe what they’re conveying even though they’re not using a spoken language. watch videos of people signing! look at how beautifully expressive it is! it is a LANGUAGE, treat and write it like one. use quotation marks
you had a DUTY, dear scientist.
you had a duty to understand, better than any other entity on the planet, longer than any other entity on the planet, me. you had a duty to document me and make sense of all that encompasses me. you had a duty to care for me alongside your other specimens with equity and compassion. you had a duty to run tests upon tests upon tests to see what i am made of. you had a duty to report the results of those tests, so that those who come after you can understand, too. you had a duty to bridge the gap between me and the universe, to discover me, to render me well and truly fathomable.
and yet, you have learned NOTHING.
I have three modes of reading
Dont read
Read a 500 page book in a day
Read only fanfiction until my eyeballs drop out of my skull from exhaustion
everyone forgets that batman doesn’t use guns or kill people because he like actually believes in rehabilitative justice. what sets him apart is his belief that his villains are victims of circumstance and he thinks they can change. he explicitly does not want to be a cop and yet so many adaptations turn him into a diet cop
I need nothing in this life like I need Carly Rae Jepsen to cover Everytime We Touch
Hyperfeminine characters 🥰🥰🥰
Hyperfeminine characters who aren't portrayed as stupid, vapid or vain 🥰🥰 Hyperfeminine characters who genuinely enjoy quote unquote feminine interests and aren't vilified or looked down upon because of them 🥰🥰 Hyperfeminine characters who are big on female friendships rather than thrown into jealousy and "cat fight" arcs 🥰 Hyperfeminine characters whose deep interest in fashion isn't considered superficial and silly, but interesting and respectable! 🥰 Hyperfeminine characters who aren't the butt of the joke and who are well-rounded characters with depth 🥰🥰
do you ever just look at someone’s interpretation of a character and want to gently put your hands on their shoulders, look them kindly in the eyes and say you got it all wrong
Black boys aren’t scary. Black masculinity isn’t scary. Black boys and black masculine people deserve better.
