Satan is short for samantha

Welcome to Hell...For normal people. Here is a safe haven for all the crazys, the jokers and the fans that need an escape from all those who don't know about the other side of tumblr. So laugh, cry , and all around angst with me. Or don't, it's up to...

Lots of jokes get made in modern comics and fandom about the pejorative double entendre of Dick Grayson’s given/chosen nickname for Richard, and it IS funny, but I want to give a moment of appreciation for the other, kind of brilliant, double meaning that’s unfortunately fallen out of common modern usage, but would have been way more common when he was first named in 1940.

He’s literally named “detective” you guys, there is no way the World’s Greatest Detective’s partner wasn’t named this way on purpose.

Add to this the way the fandom loves to explore the 21st century reveal/retcon of Dick Grayson’s Romani heritage, and the possible etymology of the word, and you have a goldmine of largely untapped, to my knowledge, discussion of thoughts from Dick Grayson and the people around him about the relationship between his identity, the life he chose, the things he chooses to honor/remember, and the persistence of a nickname that has fallen increasingly out of favor in most other modern contexts.

I love when it’s as simple as “it’s his name and there’s no reason to change it”, but I also think there’s just lots of room for him to also have Real Thoughts about it throughout his life.

Honestly I think it’s so funny that in the Marvel universe, when someone’s really smart, they have like eight to twelve doctorates and they finished high school at age twelve.

And then over in the DC universe it’s like. This is Tim Drake. He’s a genius. He keeps cloning his loved ones. He dropped out of highschool. Over there is Barry Allen. He can reverse engineer a spaceship in less than a minute. He is such a good chemist he’s still going to be known as the best chemist in 4,000 years. He has a bachelor’s degree.

The weirdest guy I ever met in a church was this boy who referred to “Buzz Aldrin and his husband” going to the moon. I was completely baffled, and when I asked if he’d misspoken, he got really angry and accused me of being deliberately ignorant of the facts. It turned out that he was somehow comvinced that Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong were married. It took five Wikipedia articles to convince him otherwise.

[rockshitty]

The moon landing was fake: tired, passé, heard it before

The moon landing was an elaborate marriage proposal: fresh! sexy! I’m going to be thinking about this for months!

[weaver-z]

Romcom where two dudes in the 1960s fall in love and come up with an elaborate plan to become astronauts to get married in space because gay marriage is illegal everywhere but it can’t be illegal on the moon

Might make things a little awkward for Mike Collins.

[soaringsearingphoenix]

He was the officiator

[explorerrowan]

This is an excellent take. He officiated in orbit, and the landing was their Honey Moon.

[cipheramnesia]

Oh my god they were moon mates.

Everyone involved in the making of this pun should go to their rooms to think about what they’ve done.

justin mcelroy has said many powerful things but honestly no set of words in the english language conveys the same energy as “that’s a funny trick to play on god”

[dunknewton-deactivated20210211]

“you’re rearranging deck chairs on the titanic, my friend” is a very close second

[unholydevilhost]

“we can do whatever sins we want! there’s no god here to observe this” is very good too

[mrsmummifikation]

“the man who sleeps with a machete is a fool every night but one” was also good

[waxminutes]

“for the millionth time the first amendment protects you from the government not the justin”

okay but saying “i wish i had known you sooner” — like the love in my heart is growing so big and fast for you that i wish i had the opportunity to have you way earlier by my side, because i want to love you longer than i can do now. my love for you reaches my past and makes a place for you.

Just realized the very close parallels between "The Two Horse Job" with Aimee and "Something Walker This Way Comes" with Evelyn

Both times it's very much, "You were supposed to be home so we could be a family."

"I was away! Doing important secret work!"

"You could have called or written."

"Not really. Because important secret work. You could've gotten hurt."

"You chose work over family! And I resent you for it."

And then the scheme ensues, and there are stakes, and she sees he's the best at what he does and maybe he has to do it, and he wasn't bluffing about it being dangerous.

And then, "Okay, I get it. I'm outta here but do what you need to without me with your new found family."

And it gets me every time

‘relationships are work’ means ‘you have to put effort into loving each other intentionally & learning how to love each other and communicating properly’ not ‘your relationship makes you feel stressed and sad most of the time & the other person disrespects you and treats you bad but you stay anyway’

[goggles-mcgee]

Bruce Wayne in the middle of a robbery/hijacking at a gala or something, completely done and just so tired mentally and physically and really not wanting to sneak out and get suited up as the bat: Hey can I like pay you to do this another day? Can...is that something I can do?

The villain of the day knowing damn well that Bruce is always a nice hostage, always willing to play along with their schemes and sometimes fun enough to try and stop them: you good bro?
