The Bat Kids Should Threaten To Get Adopted By Tim Every Time Bruce Is Being A Dickhead Or Just An Inconvenience

Oh, so when YOU ignore decades of characterization because "batman would never abuse his kids!" and "that's not my batman!!" it's fine, but when I, a Jason Todd fan

Honestly, talking to our hallucinations is hilarious.

There's a weird figure in the dark? Dude, get off of my lawn. Go home.

We see a cat for a split second but it was never there? There goes the extradimensional cat, that's a good kitty.

We see bugs that aren't real? Besties you really gotta start paying rent to be in here!

There's weird figures darting around the corners of our vision, never clear enough to be seen? Sorry we looked at you, I totally get social anxiety!

It makes it seem less serious and lets less room for fear to creep in, because when we get afraid is really when it gets bad. "Why are you talking to yourself?" So I don't go insane actually. Deal with it.

If you're a disabled young person, you've most likely been hit with the "pfft you think you're in pain now? Just wait til you're my age" bullshit from older people at least once. Everyone talks about how invalidating it is

But I haven't seen anybody mention how it's terrifying, too. Yes, I know health deteriorates with age. I know that old age is a disability unto itself. I know that the healthiest person alive will start getting aches and pains past the age of 40 and may even need mobility aids

I know all this stuff. And it always makes me think "yeah, if I can't walk without joint pain even while using mobility aids AT AGE 21, how painful will life be for me at the age where it gets painful for everyone?"

And it's hard not to feel like I'm doomed, y'know? Where most people get a period of health that they wish they appreciated more when they start to lose it, my starting point was a body that doesn't work properly and it's only gonna get worse from there. It's worse every fucking year.

TLDR stop telling disabled young people that their pain will only get worse to the point of being unimaginable as they age, WE FUCKING KNOW

Obsessed with Batkids that came after Jason's death accidentally letting slip things they know about him/talking about him like he's there:

Tim: "Not that he's-- I mean, the way Bruce talks about him, sometimes it's like--

Duke, simultaneously: "We hired a medium last week to communicate with his spirit."

Steph, accidentally bursting out of the kitchen while Damian is being interviewed: "Someone tell Jason he's an asshole for finishing all the peanut butter." *spots camera crew and freezes*

Damian: "Jason's what I named our new dog. Right Baba? He's the dog we saw last week at the shelter."

Bruce, through gritted teeth: "Yes, I remember saying that we had too many animals already, but anything to make my kids happy."

Steph, awkwardly sidestepping out of the frame.

Had a conversation with my girlfriend the other day that made me wanna share some thoughts.

Reminder: Butches do not exist just to do shit for you, don’t take advantage of Butch chivalry. Butches need patience, emotional support, and care too. What are you doing for your Butch? Open the door for your Butches, offer to pay for their meal, plan a date, take them out, tell them they’re beautiful, ask them how their day was and ask them how it really was!

Reminder: Femmes are strong and capable and hard as fuck, I do not subscribe to this painting of Femmes either by others or by ourselves as innocent, weak, or helpless. We cannot and should not infantilise ourselves or let others do this to us! Femmes are strong as fuck and we should be proud of this fact.

Butch-Femme is about complimenting energy, having different areas of strength that we can use to come together, support each other, and provide love and care.

We are equal partners with two different ways of externalising our strengths and resilience in a patriarchal world. Don’t let stereotypes about Butch-Femme and Heteropatriarchal concepts around femininity and masculinity shape how we as lesbians form relationships and how we should be within them.

Chronically ill people should be allowed to kill Anyone who tells them to be grateful or that they're "lucky" that their disease/disability isn't showing up on bloodwork/tests.

The idea that you're "lucky" if your disability/disease doesn't show up on tests because if it did, it would be worse is so fucking shit.

I need a wheelchair, I'm homebound, on heart medication, three different pain medications (and more!) and can barely navigate my house but according to doctors, I'm "lucky" my disease isn't progressive enough that they can figure it out. Apparently, since it doesn't show up on tests, that means whatever I have is considered "mild".

Personally, I think that idea should die in a ditch and chronically ill people without diagnoses should be allowed some kind of compensation for it existing in the first place.

when dick was 13-15, robin went through what the league/team calls ‘the scowling’

criminals thought gotham had really hardened the young birds spirit

those closest to the bats know it’s actually because he had braces and couldn’t show them while in costume

Literally anyone meeting bruce and his family for the first time: So how did you get so many kids by 30?

Dick: HE WAS A TEENAGE DELINQUENT

Jason: *shouting over him* HE LEFT MY MOTHER AT THE ALTAR

*tim is sitting, just happy to be included*

Bruce: BE-quiet.  They're ADOPTED!

Jason: *not a beat missed* Because he’s never known the touch of a woman.

Trauma didn't make me nice, I consciously made me nice because I don't want anyone else to suffer like I did. Trauma didn't make me strong, I made me strong. Don't you dare ever tell me my trauma made me anything but scared, broken, and confused. Don't give credit to the abusers for me being a good person. They didn't make me good, I made myself good.

Stupid thing I thought of drawing ages ago when I was watching fruit basket
