Bruce: It's important to update your suit as you learn. I made the cowl into a crash helmet after my fall. The spine has extra support after Bane broke my back. These kneepads after I skidded and sliced my knees open.

Tim:

Tim: So at the start, it was really just luck, a cape, a thong between you and a coffin at the beginning?

Bruce: Yup.

We laugh at how The Art of War is basically just, "An army can't fight if the soldiers aren't eating," but I'm reading this document about conservation of ancient yew trees and it legitimately says, "You should never fill the center of a hollow yew with concrete," so I think that probably making blatantly obvious statements is just the bane of being a specialist in anything

My heart got splattered against the floor (Positive)

ive invented (note: dubious claim) something i call the bear diet which is mostly fruits and vegetables with fish as the main protein source and something like once a month you eat a few hyperprocessed foods of your liking because that is when you, the bear, raid a dumpster in the suburbs

[stellarskyes]

after the hyperprocessed foods, do you take tranquilizers to simulate getting captured by animal control and returned to the wild?

[agnesmontague]

i would settle for melatonin gummies but well. knock yourself out

you have to be a weird little freak or the world will eat you alive

I think the aversion in our society to coming up w/ utilitarian answers to ethical questions (my favorite hobby) has caused us to cede way too much ground to the assholes of the world in the vein of "Evil will always triumph because good is dumb," as Dark Helmet put it. Like.

Laypeople (and also a concerning number of scientists) have often got the idea that unethical human experimentation is some sort of ultra-effective super science that would fix all the disease and discover all of the medicine and we only don't do it because it isn't nice (see: every science fiction show ever). No! Jumping straight from abstract theory to human trials is a terrible way to do science. It produces incoherent results and useless observations and nonsensical conclusions. We have pages and pages of historical precedent demonstrating this.

And lots of people have got the idea that totalitarianism is some sort of magic super-government that does all the government stuff really effectively abd efficiently and we only don't do it because it isn't nice. No!!!! "Let's put one idiot in charge and do whatever dumb shit they say" is the worst way to organize any project at all, let alone an economy and a political machine. Fascist regimes are models of corruption, waste, and inefficiency.

And so on

[cutestdoughboy]

The biggest trick fascists pulled these past 80 years has been convincing people that they were hyper competent perfectionists who ran everything efficiently. Rather than the truth which is they killed every one who was competent (trade unionists, socialists) and then killed every who reported that they were in fact incompetent. (Journalist and newsroom persecutions were very common)

Sometimes you gotta get down to brass tacks

[scunthotter]

People who are making posts telling us what is happening over on threads, twitter, and Instagram are like war correspondents sending us reports from the front.

and an extra bart yay :p

[literary-sparks]

“Why don’t you use ai” idk man beyond the obvious environmental and “this machine causes psychosis and encourages people to kill themselves” thing I think asking the equivalent of a solid D student who is also a pathological liar if they can answer my question/do the work for me seems pretty fucking stupid

[skyline-sunset-in-my-veins]

Also bc bitch I spent years to have the mind and skill that I do - why the fuck would I fucking waste that on the "NOT EVEN half assed at best" machine?

I like to imagine that Matt Fraction's Batman #9 happened in june cause why not.

[milowing]

duke thomas spends 10+ years getting comics and growth and plot and hes "too new" and people "dont know him well enough". superboy prime gets five minutes of character development and hes suddenly a fan favorite getting shipped with every character under the sun. i hate this fandom.

[lukadeedoodah]

Happy pride from the karaoke booth! (they have not been doing any singing)

I attempted to shade with black

Edit: In my head this is set on The Batman movie so there's no powers and this Clark is just a regular journalist.
