Hi! I’m a gay guy who spends way too much time on the internet. I also have an unhealthy obsession with my ships and fandoms (whatever I’m into at the moment). Enjoy!

Me, before I saw this: old timey dancing in cartoons has to be over-exaggerated for effect

Me, now: old timey dancing in cartoons had to be toned down to promote a sense of realism because they were too good at it

love how Rocky is always serving main character energy. dude steps up and leaves their smoking hot mate to go on a noble quest. Then everyone dies mysteriously and a fucking alien shows up who is somehow smart but also dumb as hell. So now bro has a lovable sidekick and you two save each other through the power of friendship multiple times. Then you figure out a way to save the fucking world and you get to go back home a hero. And your funny bestie alien sidekick comes with you because he thinks you're so cool. Rockys life is a movie. He's a legend.

People seem to like the idea of Damian being the more affectionate due to Talia's influence but what if he's pretty much oblivious to the fact to it and pretty much thinks it's normal to be this affectionate/down bad with someone.

So most of the batfam is just....not used to it.

Damian painting Jon's face, smiling with complete satisfaction that he was able to replicate how Jon's eyes light up like the sunshine that he is:

Tim who doesn't know whether to look disgusted or concerned: ...this is the fourth time you drew him just this month.

Damian: it's better than trying to clone him for years.

Tim:

Tim: THAT WAS ONE TIME-

---

Damian just a day after they officially got together: me and Jon are dating

Dick: that's nice bud

Damian: I've already asked the Kents, I'm gonna propose once we finish college.

Dick, who is a known womanizer and has a complicated love life (pining for his best friend): ...

---

Jason: it's been hours, why are you still stuck at that chapter?

Damian: it reminds me too much of Jon.

Jason: so what you just stared at it and imagine it was him for the pass hour?

Damian: yes.

Jason who already knows the book has a tragic ending: ...better prepare yourself then.

---

Barbara: care to explain why your feed is filled with blade smithing tutorials?

Damian: I was trying to make a promise ring for Jon.

Barbara: ....and?

Damian: and I'm trying to make my own sword.

Steph, texting the group chat: me and cass just saw Damian and Jon on a date

Steph: Damian is smiling like an idiot while Jon is trying to win him a stuffed toy

Steph sends a blurry picture of Jon holding a stuffed penguin plush and Damian leaning into his face: OH MY GOD DID HE JUST KISSED HIM?????????

Cass: love, this is the work gc.

---

Damian: I appreciate the help Thomas.

Duke: metropolis isn't really that far anyways, plus Bruce said you're not driving with that broken Arm. Do you have plans with Jon today?

Damian: no, I just miss him.

Duke:...

Duke, back at the manor: and that's what he said before Superboy just flew in and Picked him up from where he's standing.

Meanwhile Jon is someone who COULD actually match his freak, but he's more aware of it than Damian. Will he tell him? Eventually but not now, it'll be a story he'll tell their kids someday.

Jason: how ya likin’ that comic, kiddo? Damian: I do not understand. Jason: what? It’s just a spider-man comic. What’s not to understand? Damian: why is Parker pursuing this red-haired woman, who does not seem to enjoy his company further than any other, rather than his friend, Osborn? Osborn has given multiple hints that he would prefer their relationship to go beyond platonic Jason: Jason: *glances over at Jon, who is reading a Daredevil comic on the other bed* Damian: should he not pursue Osborn, considering he is already aware that their relationship can withstand hardship? Friendship is a sturdy baseline for which romance can be built soon. And besides, Mary Jane is an un-compelling idiot with mediocre looks. Jason: Jason: this explains so much

everyone loves to hate terfs until they realise that it actually entails rejecting bioessentialism entirely and then suddenly you’re “taking things too seriously” and you “don’t have a sense of humour” like i’m sorry but saying protect the dolls doesn’t make you immune to terfism it has seeped into every corner of mainstream feminism and unless you’re actively searching it out and checking your own biases you will always be at risk of sharing a space with terfs

[this-is-trans-joy]

“Only women can—” nope. “But all men—” nah. “The divine femininity of—” gonna stop you right there. “Everyone born ama—” if you finish that sentence I’ll kill you. “Men don’t experience—” you’re wrong. “Gender isn’t real but sex is imm—” *loud incorrect buzzer*

It also goes without saying that bioessentialism inherently can’t be trans inclusive no matter how hard you try. “All men including trans men—” probably not. “This is only a woman’s issue—” is it really? “Afabs only—” why? “All trans men are like—” what? what are they like? finish the sentence i dare you.

when people complain about damian being evil or abusive to tim or w/e i get so mad bc u know what i wish he did all that i wish bad things did happen to tim drake i would be defending damian anyway bc his life was a total nightmare & he deserved to lash out even more but he literally didn't do all that u are swinging at ghosts

[stephexmachina]

it's the same w steph tbh like she's got weirdos insisting she was toxic & entitled & abusive i WISHHHHH i wish she'd bullied those men & broken their bones omfg i wish they suffered even a fraction of what she experienced u will never catch me saying she overreacted at all in any context

There was recently a copyright infringement case in YA and I need everyone to know that the following sentence was in the legal decision:

“Hot, sexy, dangerous boys, central to virtually all young adult romance novels, cannot be copyrighted.”

[kuttithevangu]

“Regarding setting, the court held that both works taking place in Alaska high schools was not protectable because Alaska is a public place and setting a teen novel in a high school is a common genre convention.”

I've read the entire decision (skimming over the purely legal precedent/definitions bit) and here are some of my favorite bits:
