The Junk Drawer

Full of things that I may or may not need but refuse to throw away. I was told that I should include my age. I am considered old every where.

My dad is Deaf and has been since before he met my mother. He had multiple different devices to monitor my sisters and I growing up- including a noise detector that would vibrate the bed or the couch and say exactly which room the loud noise was being made in. As a child I remember understanding that he could not "hear" me if we weren't looking at each other, and that I had to speak clearly in order for him to understand. He tells me as a toddler I used to ask him to get on my level, put my hands on his face, and ask him if he could understand me- and only once he verified would I say or ask anything. He used to leave me a signed note every day before school when I was in high school, giving me a different blessing and a couple bucks to buy a snack.

But also- hearing children of deaf adults (CODAs) are often more empathetic, more accepting of others' differences and challenges, more emotionally mature and able to read others' body language and visual cues, with experiences more similar to bicultural and bilingual children of the same age, because being raised Deaf while hearing is a look into two very different worlds. Not that I think anyone should need to prove their worth, but the statistics show the exact opposite of these doctors' expectations of Deaf parents. Deaf adults more often than not raise intelligent and well-structured kids that connect more readily with others, there is no additional risk of neglect more than any hearing parent.

This is painfully American

[dirtbaby2016]

Americans be like it is totally normal for an entire stadium (including military members) to stand at attention while a fast food clown mascot sings the national anthem

[unstablebill]

when we say "it is functionally impossible to parody Americans in a way that will actually insult them" this is the sort of thing you're up against. is your sick burn funnier than corporation burger clown sing national anthem baseball game? no?? of course it isn't.

Dick, walking into kitchen: hey guys , any idea where Tim is? i need his help with this case.

Steph,painting Jasons nails (lost a bet): i saw him on the cave couch when i was down there, that what about an hour ago so idk if hes still there.

Dick: yeah but i was just down there and Bruce was napping there.

Jason: where else would he be? have you tried calling his phone?

Dick: he never answers his phone, he has some freaky mind powers for knowing when something is an actual emergency .

they sit in silence for a minute

Cass: wait you said Bruce was napping on the couch? didnt he just get off patrol with a heavy concussion?

more silence

Steph realsing: OMG

Jason,also realising : rip Timmy, concussed 210 pound Bruce decides when the hug ends

during an emotional moment where dick is trying to give Bruce a peptalk

dick: remember what you used to say to me whenever I made a mistake or struggled with training ?

Bruce without missing a beat: you’re a disgrace to this family

Dick, affronted: No

Bruce: you’re a disappointment?

dick: no! You used to say it’s only failure if you give up

Bruce:

Bruce: I said that?

dick, now getting mad: you are unbelievable

Bruce: it just that I have no recollection of saying that

dick: well you used to say it alot

Tim: to you maybe. When I failed he would say [drops voice into a growl] “you’d think it’s a strip show with the way you’re showing your ass”

dick, scandalised: Bruce!

Bruce, nodding solemnly: I do remember that one

i imagine Bruce pavloved himself into absolutely wolfing down any snacks he was snacking on the moment he hears any of his kids nearby

Tim, subtly eyeing Bruces banana chip snack: Bruce, can you sign some of these documents for WE ? kinda important.

Bruce, places the snack down and grabs the documents: sure

Tim, grabbing the snack and running out of Bruces office: yoink Bruce: :O ?

Bruce: oh

Bruce snacking at the batcomputer

dick and steph walking out the locker room

Dick: hey Bru-

Bruce, startled, shoving food in his moth: huh? yeah what is it?

Steph: what was that?

Bruce, coughing, struggling to swallow the food: what was what?

Dick: what did you eat? and why did you eat it all the moment we walked in?

Steph: eyah shy did you do that?

Bruce, drinking coffee to wash it all down: nothing, so what did you two need? :)

Damian: yeah i like to take videos of animals i see in the wild. i don't see as much in Gotham as i did back in the league, but there's some cool squirrels around sometimes. Tim: oh you have videos of squirrels? show me, i like squirrels. Dick: yeah let us see! Damian: *gets out phone, brings up video* Tim and Dick: *watching over Damian's shoulder* *distant screams of pain in the back of the video* Tim: Tim: dude where the fuck was this? Damian, absently: this one? i think this was outside Titan's Tower. Tim: Dick: *more screams, crashes and bangs* Dick, casually: hey those screams kinda sound like Tim. Tim: Tim: iS THIS FROM WHEN JASON TRIED TO KILL ME?!? Damian: hm? oh, yeah, probably. Tim: YOU WERE THERE??? Damian: not IN the tower; Jason cracked the window of his car and left me to wait outside with a Kindle. Tim: Dick: Damian: i was reading 'Crime and Punishment'. Tim: WHY THE FUCK WERE YOU THERE?! Damian: i dunno, he just told me he had to run a few errands before he could drop me off at my father's. i didn't know one of the errands was beating up you. Dick: and you heard the screams and just didn't check or worry? Damian: did you see how fat that squirrel was? i was distracted. Tim: oh my god-

2026 TUMBLR WHITENESS CENSUS

There are SIX questions total in reblogs, the end will be marked by large green text. If you don’t see all six, check reblogs and grab the version with the ending note.

1/6 - Do you identify as some flavor of white?

White

Non-white

Only considered white outside of imperial core

Insecure Mixed Person externalizing my family racial issues here

Remaining time: 2 days 2 hours

Answers amended from the 2025 census based on feedback. If you’re mixed, choose what feels right to you I’m not here to do phrenology or paper bag test you but don’t make it my problem either. When in doubt, ask yourself: would the whites kill you too in the race war?

This census is US-centric because so is tumblr, unfortunately. This poll is also starting with a heavy Black/racialized bias due to my personal followers. The main point of this census is to see how white-dominant the site is currently compared to prior years, as well

For the purpose of this census, Imperial Core will be defined as the following: United States, Canada, Australia, Aotearoa, basically all of Western Europe, Japan, and Israel. If you want to argue about any of these designations, too bad maybe they should stop colonizing.

Reblog from question 6/6 below!

Note for clarification:

*For those who don’t know, TMA means transmisogyny affected (such as trans women, some non-binary people, etc.) whereas TME means transmisogyny exempt (Cis men, cis women, transmasculine individuals, etc). If you want to ask for clarification for which applies to you for the purposes of this poll, feel free to ask and I’ll try to reply, but if you try to argue or quibble about the terms themselves, I’ll block you.
