i like to think that bruce clocks that superman and clark kent are the same person within two seconds of meeting the second one after having known the first for maybe a month or so. then, on the flip side, it would be SUPER FUNNY if batman and bruce wayne are SO DISTINCT that it then takes several years or possibly even a decade for clark to realize that batman is the same drunk idiot who once spilled a full glass of champagne onto clark's shoes and then offered to buy him a new pair, stating loudly "how much can a pair of shoes cost, three thousand dollars?"

Consider RE: functionally immortal batfam in cursed Gotham: As they become more entrenched in Gotham’s mythology, the batfam become less of humans and more of ideas in a similar way that character drift happens in real life.
Batman can grapple on anything. The line never snaps slips or fails for ordinary reasons. He’s always there, in every shadow. You can only see his eyes.
Robin doesn’t grow up. He can grow into something else, but then that’s not Robin anymore, isn’t it. And there will always be another one. Batman needs a Robin.
Bruce Wayne is always obscenely rich. The more he donates the richer he gets. Wayne Industries monopolizes every industry and always has the cutting edge tech. Gotham never gets better.
Alfred Pennyworth is an old man who can carry Batman’s dead weight. He can care care for an estate singlehandedly that would ordinarily employ hundreds of people. He knows everything that happens in his house. He always has warm cookies.
No one gets career ruining injuries. No one dies forever. Everyone gets boiled down and concentrated. They aren’t people, anymore. They’re myths. Ideas.
Nothing ever goes wrong for the wrong reasons. Nothing ever changes.
Batman and Robin and Robin and Robin and Robin and Robin and Batgirl and Batgirl and Batgirl.
Do you see what I’m saying?
I do, anon! I think I have a similar post about eldritch/cryptid batfam floating around here somewhere. Something about Gotham blessing (or cursing) them, and them not truly noticing since the changes are so gradual.
Immortal batfamily would be a gift to Clark, but he would realize that, he as a Kryptonian remains largely the same while they continue to change slowly every year -- not aging or dying, but sinking further into Gotham, somehow.

you’re in his DMs. Clark Kent is in his super secret, high-tech underground cave trying to convince him not to go out on patrol with three broken ribs and a concussion, only to give up and weld the garage door shut with his laser vision. you are not the same.
One thing I have yet to find in a fic (but will not give up looking, lest I face the possibility of having to be the one to write it) is Harvey Dent discovering Batman's identity, and rather than going through his typical feelings of hurt and betrayal, goes, "Oh damn. Of course my traumatized bestie would also have DID. No wonder we got along so well and felt so comfortable around each other. And here I was thinking Bruce just made it out of childhood alright somehow. I'm such a jerk. Of course he's been struggling alone all along. I wonder if he even knows he's Batman. I bet he doesn't. No, he can't possibly. I bet Alfred's been hiding it from him while enabling Batman. This explains so much actually."
Awh, I hope you find something like this! It totally makes sense that that's where Harvey's mind would go. I think he's in the unique position to pity Bruce and Batman, having known both iterations of the man. Bruce is the same way, and it makes things so much more different for them than other people.
So I may have done a thing, jury's out on whether it's a good thing. @emma-d-klutz

"The trannies should be able to piss in whatever toilet they want and change their bodies however they want. Why is it my business if some chick has a dick or a guy has a pie? I'm not a trannie or a fag so I don't care, just give 'em the medicine they need."
"This is an LGBT safe space. Of COURSE I fully support individuals who identify as transgender and their right to self-determination! I just think that transitioning is a very serious choice and should be heavily regulated. And there could be a lot of harm in exposing cis children to such topics, so we should be really careful about when it is appropriate to mention trans issues or have too much trans visibility."
One of the above statements is Problematic and the other is slightly annoying. If we disagree on which is which then working together for a better future is going to get really fucking difficult.
I think this is something young people in particular are confused about. My dad has always had a slightly off color sense of humor, he always feels the need to privately ask me “boy turned girl or girl turned boy?” if I mention a friend and stress said friend’s pronouns, and yet when we had repair work done in the house and the worker was listening to a podcast discussing the evils of transgender people and how to cleanse society, he went out of his way to contact the owner of the business to discuss his disappointment with that worker’s conduct and stress the negative effect that could have had if there had been trans kids in our home.
Our allies will never be perfect. They will never use the perfect language or have the perfect politics. But we have to appreciate those allies and meet them where they are, especially if they are willing to learn.
When marriage equality was up for debate, I remember the regulars in the pub going “Fuck it, why not, let the poofs be miserable too if they want to!”
Somehow that sentence includes both a slur and a hetero “marriage is misery” joke, and is still more supportive and welcoming than the well-spoken people who wanted to have “a civilised debate”.
hate to say it but the key to having things solved by big company customer service is you just gotta stretch the truth with them. or straight up lie. actually. was on the phone for 3 hours because they sent something to the wrong address and spoke to 10 different departments trying to figure out if anyone could go fucking get it and they're like "uhhh but can you go get it" bitch I'm 8 hours away by car, I don't live in the house where you sent it.
took a moment to think, called back and was just like. Hi. My package was stolen off the porch!!! Saw the cunt steal it myself!! Anyway can you please send new things to this other address for free since that's your policy for stolen goods thank you~☆ ! and it was immediately solved.
actually my tags are too good not to include
follow me for more customer service tips and tricks
THIS is how it's done!!!
okay i don't mean to be dramatic but it's downright evil how doctors (don't) treat people with chronic headaches
and i am purposely saying "chronic headaches," even though MOST chronic headaches are migraines, because i know it took me a loooong time to realize i had migraines. and ultimately the distinction doesn't matter insofar as people in chronic pain deserve access to safe, effective treatment. and this is (needlessly, cruelly) not the case for so many people with chronic headache/migraine, many of whom have to jump through hoops for insurance companies before they can get the treatment that actually works.
there's been a recent proposal to redefine chronic migraine as anyone who gets more than 8 headaches per month, because that was found to be as disabling as the current criteria (more than 15 per month). and it's just so upsetting at how many people are just. suffering without treatment.
based on the tags this post is getting! hi hello it's me the migraine fairy, here to tell you that if you're getting headaches most days of your life without any underlying injury/cause etc, these are most likely migraines. not headaches. despite common perception, migraine does not mean "extremely painful headache." it's a neurological condition that includes many symptoms, of which pain (mild to severe) is one. you may be having these other symptoms (fatigue, sensitivity to sensory input like light/sound/smell, nausea, auras, brain fog, digestive upset, etc) without necessarily linking them to your headache, and these symptoms can start before the pain and last for hours/days.
if at all possible, please see a neurologist! despite the crankiness of my original post, there ARE amazing treatments and preventatives available. you will probably have to jump through some hoops, as the op suggested, but. it's worth it to find some relief.

thinking about the ironic symmetry of bruce’s life, always the survivor in the wreckage. his parents shielding him from the bullets, making him watch helplessly as they bleed out in front of him, and decades later, his children dying in front of him or even worse because of his cause, again and again and again. the worst fate in the world perhaps is to be the last man standing
some people are taking "doomed" to mean "dead". this is actually a misconception! you can be doomed even if you don't die! it's sometimes worse if you don't die!
