So I'm Of The Belief That One Of The Finest Things In Life Is A Well Loved Book. A Book With Yellowed
So I'm of the belief that one of the finest things in life is a well loved book. A book with yellowed pages and a weathered spine, clear water/tea/coffee damage... That comes with time.
Usually you have to get those books firsthand and weather them down to that point yourself, or possibly find it at a library sale or a garage sale.
But occasionally. Occasionally someone will see you reading a book and say "I have something for you" before handing you something so rare, so important.
A book. A book with bent corners and crinkled pages from getting wet one too many times. A book that has creases in the spine and the cover from where its been bent over and over again.
That kind of book is special. The kind of book that has been loved and been passed along with intention, not just happenstance, a knowledge that the one being gifted it will love it just as much.
Those kinds of books mean something.

I think bringing up "it/its" pronouns is a good test for people who claim to be "trans allies" because it so easily weeds out the people who are only doing it superficially. I've seen so many people who will post "Punch your local TERF #transrightsarehumanrights" and then turn around and be like "If someone says they go by 'it/its' pronouns it's actually good to misgender them because they're just teenager trenders"

Tim is surprised every time Bruce being a dad. Not even a good one, which he is, but genuinely just a dad.
Like, what do you mean, he asks how was your day and carefully listened to your answer instead of interrupt you on the second sentence and talk about himself?
What do you mean, he cares about you every day and not only when he wants to look like a good dad™ at gala?
What do you mean, he tries to understand your interests instead of saying that it's useless and you have to quit?
What do you mean, he carries you to bed instead of waking you up?
What do you mean, he actually remembers things that you told him?
What do you mean, he stays with you, because you are scared and you asked him to?
What do you mean, you don't need to ask?
And for the first time in his life, Tim thinks that it wasn't his fault. He wasn't a bad child. His father was a bad person.
Forgotten Musicians, Lost Music: A Plea for Preservation
I used to be a musician. A pretty good one, too. I had a record deal, I toured all over the country, and I had a few songs that made it onto the radio. But then, things changed. My record label dropped me, my band broke up, and I faded into obscurity.
It's been a few years now since I've released any new music, and I'm starting to feel like a forgotten musician. No one knows my name. No one cares about my music. It's like I never existed.
But I did exist. And I made music. And that music is still out there somewhere.
The problem is, most of my back catalogue is unavailable. My record label went bankrupt a few years ago, and all of my masters were lost. So, if you want to hear my music, you have to track down old physical copies of my albums or singles. And even those are hard to find.
Which is why I consider myself to be borderline lost media. My music is still out there, but it's buried deep in the obscurity. And if no one seeks it out, it will eventually disappear forever.
I know that I'm not the only forgotten musician out there. There are countless other artists whose music has been lost or forgotten. And that's a tragedy.
Because music is important. It's a part of our culture. It's a way to express ourselves and to connect with others. And it's something that should be preserved for future generations.
So, if you're a fan of lost media, or if you're just curious to hear some music from a forgotten musician, I encourage you to seek out my music. You may be surprised at what you find.
And if you do find my music, please share it with others. Help to keep it alive. Help to prevent it from disappearing forever.
Thank you.
Barnaby J. Tremayne.

ExCUSE me, Dick thinking that maybe he should have brought Damian with him instead of staying with, but didn't because he didn't think he was ready to be a dad, like he was probably younger than Bruce was when he took Dick in and even they had such a rough ride, could he put Damian through that? or worse? when Damian had already been through so much in his young life? like sure Dick had lost his parents but he hadn't been trained to be an assassin all his life? but still Dick THOUGHT ABOUT IT and I am going to go throw up from feelings about how much Dick loves that kid.
