The bat teens make a pact that all of them should Damian out on the weekends for enrichment (normal child fun).
- Duke takes him to a movie, and they end up hopping theatres to see a couple. They see a superhero movie and riff on the whole thing (Duke riffs, Damian mostly complains about accuracy). They also watch a surprisingly good kids movie Damian refuses to admit he likes. Duke peer pressures Damian into trying various movie snacks (popcorn is okay, hotdogs are appalling, junior mints are the best candy). They feel sick by the end of the day because they forgot to eat actual food. They win a shitty Batman plush from the claw machine before they leave.
- Steph takes him to a shitty arcade super funplex. It is run down and kinda terrifying and mostly occupied by old people gambling and is definitely a front. Steph has been coming here since she was 4. She shows Damian how to get the highest score in skeeball (climb up on top of it and put balls directly in the highest score hole until it runs out of tickets). They run the place out of pizza and spend at least 45 minutes trying to throw candy into all the animatronics mouths. They spend their tickets on a cryptic bootleg Pokemon cartridge and the scariest looking pink bear imaginable. Damian puts it next to Duke's batman.
- Tim takes him to the skate park. He really wants to teach Dami how to skateboard, Damian brings his rollerblades. Damian thinks tricks are stupid and juvenile, until he sees someone do a flip off the bowl. He insists he NEEDS to know how to do that. It takes literally all day because Tim has to figure out how to do it first, they come home extremely bruised but satisfied.
- Cass takes him to the mall. Steph showed her the wonders of the mall and she's never looked back. They spend hours ambling through target, Cass drags Damian through the toy section (that he really wanted to go to) and makes him buy something. They both get crazy nurf guns to get the others with. They get starbucks and cinnamon buns (don't tell Alfred). They go spend 40 minutes in a candle store and decide they've seen better. They buy jewelry and honey and bits and bobs from local stands. They win a plush pikachu in a claw machine (goes next to the others, obviously).
HELP THEY TOOK BRUCE TO BATBURGER FOR HIS BACHELOR PARTY THAT THEY FORCED ON HIM AND DICK WAS LIKE "YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD MAKE THIS EVEN WORSE I MEAN BETTER? I'M GONNA RENT THE PLACE OUT AND INVITE OTHER PEOPLE IN COSTUMES." JUST. DICK ONCE AGAIN WOKE UP AND CHOSE VIOLENCE AND SUPERMAN WAS LIKE "PLEASE LET ME IN ON THIS" AND NIGHTWING WAS LIKE "I WOULDN'T DREAM OF NOT HAVING YOU THERE". THESE ARE JUSTICE LEAGUE-LEVEL HEROES AND BATMAN CAN NEVER TELL ANYONE WHAT AN AWFUL, AWFUL DEMON HE HAS FOR A BEST FRIEND AND AN AWFUL, AWFUL CHAOS GREMLIN HE HAS FOR A KID. I LOST IT FOR FIVE STRAIGHT MINUTES, THEY'RE THE ABSOLUTE WORST, NO WONDER BRUCE LOVES THEM SO MUCH
barista just asked me "... and who are you?" instead of asking "can I get your name?"
i didn't even do anything
watching reddit go into a full death spiral is like watching the specifically trans equivalent of the library of alexandria go up in flames
like yes reddit is also the only place on the internet you can get an actual answer to any question in general. but it’s also a huge centralized community database about which surgeons will fuck you over, who takes what insurance, which doctors you can trust, how to write a template therapist’s letter, insurance appeals, peer support, questions that feel too stupid to ask anywhere else, diy guidelines, “hey this is embarrassing but,” finding trans people in your area, explaining why you need PTO without getting way too personal about it, safety tips, et cetera you get the picture
Someone on trans Reddit just bought the url transgender.org and have put out a call for folks to help turn it into a replacement (and more). Here's a link on r/ftm but it's open to everyone
Here's how to use the archive.org Wayback Machine to save webpages. Get what you can while it's up, prioritize the most important information. And save links to the pages in a text file so we have a record of what survives.
r/datahoader is also providing resources for saving and archiving reddit info. https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/142l1i0/archiveteam_has_saved_over_108_billion_reddit/
literally my second biggest flex is that the guy behind osha official is my mutual. first biggest flex is that there's a discord server dedicated to hating on me
GUYS???
some context for people because this actually stopped being funny when i clicked on ops blog:
the only 'crime' op ever did was hating popular characters in the mcyt fandom, while being popular in said fandom at the time.
op is only 18 and has an entire fucking discord channel dedicated to hating her, and people hate following her and telling her that a mutual secretly hates her.
there's people in the notes saying 'if someone hates you this much, you deserve it'. when firstly, she absolutely does not, and secondly, that's a fucked thing to say when you don't know the context of the situation at all.
things got bad enough from this post for op that she considered deleting. this post has only existed for around 23 hours. that's how long it took for people being nasty and unpleasant to op to have her wanting to delete. and this post is just on top of the knowledge of and anons sending her info about the fact that they hate her for... not liking a minecraft guy.
i wish op the best and hope people leave you alone, and to the people who target op this way or are saying it's deserved in the notes: may the rest of your year be deeply unpleasant. get help.
yeah that's pretty much the gist of it!! thank you for the summary and putting in the time and effort instead of jumping to conclusions :-)
the enemy of my enemy is not actually my friend bro like is he cool? is he normal around black women?
like yeah we both hate the government but can i trust u even remotely around my identifiably disabled peers and friends? can we drive thru my old neighborhoods without u locking the doors?
i think those things are just as important as if we hate the same shit mayhaps even moreso
Everyone always talks about adhd and 100+ tabs in a browser, but no one talks about all the saved posts on tumblr we save for future reference that we never look at either
I saw somebody be wrong on the internet and I didn’t respond (don’t want to get involved) and I’m being SO brave about it
I should never have made this post because now every time it gets a new note I’m reminded of how wrong that one person on the internet was.
reblog to remind them how wrong that one person on the internet was
THEY WERE SO WRONG. ON THE INTERNET.
What were they wrong about?
NO I AM BEING SO BRAVE ABOUT IT
Out of all the decisions made for the film, I would have to say the best one had to be when they introduced Xenk by having him serve absolute CUNT™ and then casually leaving
LOOK AT THEIR REACTIONS PLEASE!!
Excellent observation by others: the fact he took off his jacket like he was about to dive into the water or wrestle the fish but no, he just wanted to be dramatic asf for no reason and then ofc you can hear the players ask the DM if they can smash romance Xenk but they can't. Also the SHIRT?? SLAY!
love seeing batman drawn in increasingly formless and vague shapes and the only identifiable details about him are the eyes of his ten children inside his cape
It implies a certain omnipotence to his parenthood, like if you took away everything there was to take away from batman as *batman*, all that'd be left is his absolute parental spirit
Game night at the manor is fun, until it comes time to choose what game to play
Twister? Nope. Not with Dick in the house.
Scrabble? Jason knows more words than anyone. Not to mention he's a world class bullshitter so they never know if he's making them up off the top of his head or not.
Poker? Cass somehow beats everyone. Every time. She also refuses to tell anyone who taught her the rules.
Monopoly? Alfred banned Monopoly. Forever. It was also the night he almost banned Damian from carrying weapons in the house.
Uno? Nobody can agree on the rules, and 'draw four' cards have resulted in stitches.
Jenga? Babs is world champion. No question. No contest.
Trivia? Steph and Duke teamed up and wiped the floor with every other team the last trivia night. Bruce has still not recovered.
Cards against humanity? Tim destroyed the deck after the last time they played turned into a therepy session.
What employers need to understand about me is that I do my thing
listen hobbit pussy could be mediocre (doubtful) but even if it was it's still followed by a 17 course homecooked meal and the kind of weed that would make sauron scared. lithe beautiful immortal elven pussy has no power compared to the simple, hardworking hobbit. and it goes without saying that you cannot handle dwarven pussy.
you know her bush is adorned with elaborate braids representing a long family tradition of training a grip that could deglove your member if she so chose
dwarf pussy could shuck your foreskin off like a corn husk

No matter how many times this sculpture shows up on the internet though, I seldom see people notice that the artist borrowed a lot of inspiration from the modern day Matamata turtle, making his sculpture double as a hypothesis that they convergently evolved similar camouflage.
