controversial yet true: the only younger superfam member bruce consistently has positive interactions with is kara, but fanon fans don't care about that because it'd mean they'd have to spend time thinking about a woman

[kryptonian-kara]

Disappointed you didn’t provide reciepts on this post because I know you have them!

He shows up at her birthday in Action Comics #270

They make a great team in Brave and the Bold (1955) #147

Kara calls him a foster parent in Supergirl (2005) #5

He offers to help fund her life on Earth in Supergirl (2005)#9

[bisupergirl]

lmao i was going to add some panels in a reblog but i got sidetracked!! here are some more kara & bruce moments that i like in addition to the ones you added:

their second the brave and the bold (1955) team-up, where she asks him to help find her missing foster father (the "what brings you to gotham city? is this a social call, or—?" is very funny to me. yeah she's just there to get brunch with you):

the brave and the bold (1955) #160

the moment in the phantom zone (1982) where she immediately alerts him when she thinks clark went missing (her family members really love going missing—also i just really like how they interact with each other here, she used to get written like an adult and one of his peers and i miss that!!):

the phantom zone (1982) #2

post-crisis kara going to talk to bruce while clark is busy on a mission and him empathizing with her over seeing her parents' faces "one last terrible time":

supergirl (2005) #30

kind of similar to the one above—but not a direct interaction between them—is that moment from the world's finest (2022) issue with kara and dick's terrible date where he has to remind dick that she saw her literal whole entire world die—not just her parents:

world's finest (2022) #12

this last one isn't super significant but "sorry about the 'pain in the butt' thing, batman" / "i've been called worse. today, even." makes me giggle whenever i think about it:

supergirl (2016) #36

and since i'm already here—and because i mentioned the "bruce would take in kon and not treat him like an abomination" and "bruce is jon's favorite uncle" fanon takes in my original tags—here's bruce openly treating kon like shit:

superboy (1994) #85 | batgirl (2000) #42

and jon openly disliking bruce:

action comics (1938) #1035 | adventures of superman: jon kent (2023) #4

i generally try to ignore headcanons that annoy me, but it's just super funny to me that both of those incredibly common takes are directly contradicted in the actual text lmao

"And it seems like it's worth your time, right? And, by the way, there's actually- the superpower inside of feeling alien is admitting that you might be an alien."

[luna-azzurra]

Steal from everything you love. watched a movie and thought "wow that scene hit different"? figure out why and use it. read a book where the banter made you kick your feet? study it. saw a tiktok that made you Feel Things? that's research. keep a notes app full of random lines you'll never use. screenshot tumblr posts at 4am for "inspiration." your influences should be obvious and chaotic. remix everything. that's not theft that's apprenticeship.

okay but chess terminology is like. you pinned your opponent's hung knight and now you can mate? oh im sure

[oplishin]

OH I'M SURE

Shout out to all the Project Hail Mary fanartists who are very aware that Rocky weighs 370lbs and cannot live in our atmosphere and then completely ignore those facts to draw Rocky hugging/snuggling Grace and sleeping on his chest no problem you're doing the Lord's work

[deathless-dreams]

Thank you for your partecipation.

Now, a question for my Black followers ONLY:

The rest of you can (and really ought to!) reblog, but it's not your turn to talk. Just listen and reflect!

What DOES a good apology for antiblackness look like, to you?

Not a shitty twitter apology that dodges accountability. Not a genuine apology made to white fans to soothe their embarrassment and egos and maintain white solidarity.

What does an ACTUAL apology for antiblackness consist of, to you?

What actions do you need to see from people who claim to be better, to deserve your support despite a history of being unsafe?

Why do you think nonblack people feel they're entitled to grace, and what would actually EARN them your grace? What makes you not want to offer it at all?

I think there's a disconnect between what the group being harmed needs, and what people think the group being harmed should settle for. We've been forced to know the latter. How do Y'ALL feel?

[a-shade-god-made]

I think the only good apology for antiblackness is changed behaviour. Audio apologies are often useless and a waste of every one's time. Especially because people will jump in to absolve them of their antiblackness so now I have to explain my hurt.

And I recognise the utility of audio apologies. It's important to say "I'm sorry" when you hurt people and I do think it needs to be said. I just think that people who've been antiblack should keep the self-flagellation in their audio apologies to themselves. It's enough to say "I was wrong. I'm sorry".

Then follow that apology with tangible actions. Change your life, grow and learn. And make peace with the fact that you might never be forgiven.

That post about death note being "everyone's first anime" (untrue statement) made me curious and now I want to gather data for science

Can you reblog this and tell me where are you from and what was your starter anime?

[anscathmarcach]

All this discourse over who does "painting with light"

Hiroshi Nagai's paintings need sunglasses to look at.

They look like how it feels to walk across a parking lot on a 98° summer day without a speck of shade in sight.

They look like heaven but also like you'd burn your bare feet on the ground.

Even when you can see shade you know it's not enough and the minute you step out you'll be burnt to a crisp like a vampire.

And it's BEAUTIFUL

[dbarenzu626]

I'll throw in the wonderful Eizin Suzuki into this ring too, a man whose work just breathes light without actually using dynamic lighting in the usual way. It's no surprise both Nagai and Suzuki are both considered prolific in art pertaining to the city pop genre because they're able to paint these kinds of scenes with a delicate touch.

This feels like I could trip on that radio and fall right into that water, feeling the crystal waves as I drop in.

And this, a nice stroll down a resort strip, where my sunscreened skin could literally feel cooked if I leaned too close to the tiling.

And then a nice stretch of summer street, wherein you could see your face in the flushed red of that car provided it didn't blind you from its sunny reflections.

I don't think I even need to say anything more, Suzuki's a massive influence in how he even places colours so warmly in such unorthodox manner. It's a naturally sunkissed talent~ 🌊
