a block is just however far the road goes until the next turn or intersection or whatever, so the size of a block just depends on your exact location.

MY LIFE MAKES SENSE

EVERYONE GIVES ME BLOCKS FOR HOW FAR PLACES ARE CUZ CHICAGO IS LITERALLY A SQUARE

Thank u… also sorry I probably didn’t respond at a normal time… I’ve been at places without wifi (highways)

I also think Bruce's horrible sleeping schedule (or lack thereof, really) means that he's kinda liable to conk out like, whenever and wherever. He doesn't tend to seek out sleeping arrangements or like, put himself to bed or even think "I need to take a nap now," he just... you give him a hot minute without active participation and stimulation, then when you look back at him he's already out, right where he's sitting.

GOOD!!! This is why he’s bad at driving

I'm twelve hours late but!! Bruce being apprehensive about nightmares leading to Hulk taking over totally fits with my headcanon about him subsisting almost entirely on naps. His circadian rhythm is a JOKE he's just up when he's up and he typically catches an average of 4-5 hours of nap dispersed in a 24-hour period. Only time he really genuinely sleeps is after a transformation, when his metabolism is fucky and trying to bounce back and he's practically comatose for like, 10-36 hours depending.

I’M ANSWERING THIS PUBLICLY BECAUSE IT’S A GOD-TIER HEADCANON. 

See also: Bruce sleeps in An Actual Bed like, 5-10% of the time. Usually he just passes out wherever he is (the hulkfam/the avengers have found him conked out in broom closets, on top of shelves, in the middle of the lab floor, etc) - or, if he’s on the run, in a dumpster/tree/sewer/abandoned building/cave/etc. 

The team refers to his long sleeps as Bruce Banner Hibernation Times and put up a “Do not disturb! I Am Sleeping.” sign next to wherever he’s decided to curl up. And a big blanket obviously.

I just wanna thank you for blogging and existing and openly being who you are. I first came across your blog on a list of aro bloggers yeeears back when I was first starting to think I might be aromantic: I think I sent you an ask or two about it, and you were really encouraging at a time I desperately needed that. I've since discovered not only that I'm aro, but that I'm also agender, AND that there are opportunities in linguistics, that I can make a career out of my love for it. <3

I’m glad I was able to help! That’s very kind of you, thank u so much for dropping by and for this lovely message.

iamthelamp replied to your post “does that guy know succubi are girls”

so i kno ur talkin bout the mythology but technically "succubus" only refers to a woman because the "suc-" prefix means "beneath" and women lay beneath men during sex so really anyone who bottoms can be a succubus

how come u only reply to my posts when u want to make a fool out of me

If it helps I 100% agree with your post re: historical figures identities! It's not fair to take people's experiences out of context and apply labels to them that they didn't have during whatever time they lived. We don't need to use words specific to identity for them; we have terms like mlm/wlw, or we can just say that people were attracted to their gender, or that they were non-gender conforming in lieu of trans. Until we gain the ability to reliably talk to the dead we won't know for sure.

I agree! For instance, there’s some overwhelming proof that  Alexander Hamilton had crushes (or even relationships) with men, but to label him without his permission (since he’s fucking deceased) is uncool. MLM is a better, looser term for it.
