From 2014.

Tim: Dick your parents dying was probably one of the most traumatizing moments in my life 

Dick:

Comparing Dick and Jason’s early days with Bruce is so funny, it’s just the opposite of what you’d expect. 

Jason: “wow, I get to live in a mansion!” “and now I get to be Robin?!” “this is awesome!” “let me get to work on that homework now Bruce so we can patrol later” “being Robin gives me magic” :D

Dick: “my parents are dead” “Mr. Wayne is never around” “everything is terrible” “i’m going to sneak out of the house” “Batman, let me kill a man”

Bruce: [reminiscingoh his kids childhoods] “ah yes, my golden child—“

Jason: “—Dick”

Dick: “—me”

Bruce: “—Jason”

Jason: “what”

Bruce: [proceeds to speak the post above in mocking tones]

This is my favorite post the shock and Bruce mocking them later.

Bruce Wayne in an interview: Everyone always assumes that Dick was the “golden child”

Interviewer: Is that not the case?

Bruce: No! If any of my kids were “Golden children” it would be Jason

Interviewer: Really?

Bruce: Yes, Jason would happily do his homework and I usually found him reading poetry and trying to learn to bake with Alfred

Bruce: Dick was a 5 foot nothing feral, will fight god for a Mcdonald’s sprite and roast you into oblivion, ankle bitter of a child

Dick from the other room: I WILL HAVE YOU KNOW I WAS 5 FOOT 2 WHEN YOU GOT ME!

I love the idea that Dick is outraged about it for a second until Bruce brings out a story like

Bruce: In retrospect it was a mistake to host a charity ball when Dick had only been with us a week, he overheard someone insult the Greenbay Packers so he braced himself over the door to the bathroom and when the guy tried to go in he dropped a whole tray of crab dip on his head

Dick (suddenly cackling with glee): and then I ran and hid in the coat room and accidentally started that fire!

Bruce, staring directly into the camera: ‘Accidentally’

Comparing Dick and Jason’s early days with Bruce is so funny, it’s just the opposite of what you’d expect. 

Jason: “wow, I get to live in a mansion!” “and now I get to be Robin?!” “this is awesome!” “let me get to work on that homework now Bruce so we can patrol later” “being Robin gives me magic” :D

Dick: “my parents are dead” “Mr. Wayne is never around” “everything is terrible” “i’m going to sneak out of the house” “Batman, let me kill a man”

#YEAH……#gotta keep in mind who had been enjoying their life more previously#also dick fucking broke bruce in for jason#that was not a dad before that was just a very weird man#DCU (via @brawltogethernow)

How could you leave this in the tags.

BRUCE WAYNE, COLLEGE AGE, MEANS WELL, PUTS ON POINTY EARS TO FIGHT CRIME: What do you do with a child? Do you form a codependent bond based on trauma recovery with it? Are they mostly self-raising? Like flour?

Dick hit the jackpot with Bruce, but the guy did NOT know what he was doing. Both things can be true. Jay is almost the inverse, comparatively, where they have deals prone to clashing but stave it off because they are both so willing to try.

Also! Dick building this hyper-capable friend to all children boy miracle worker persona out of nothing but his guardian’s hobby and desperation to be productive with his own loss and grief, versus Jason inheriting it fully formed and it doing what it was supposed to – lifting him, a troubled kid, up. Which is why timelines where Dick gives it to Jason deliberately have that thematic edge. There couldn’t be a more pointed final act with this thing he built. And it is easy to forget in light of Later, but Jason predates Tim in being very aware of and honored by the importance of what he’s been entrusted with, and its power as a symbol, because he has been on the other side of the mask seeing how it inspires people.

“Batman, let me kill a man” asdflkgjljsdf

Also…

Assorted individuals in the Damian and Dickbats era: I can’t believe you would let a murderous child be Robin.

Dick, thinking of his Top 10 Ways To Kill Tony Zucco List in his third-grade composition notebook, sweating: ….Aren’t we all murderers under capitalism, really?

i only had feral she-ra for about a minute and a half but i’d let her kill everyone in the room and then myself

The thing about this character design is that there should be more of it.

Happy Ace Week!!! 🖤🤍💜

Annabeth is the stort of person who will solve equations that have stumped mathemeticians for years in her mind while getting ready in the morning and not realize that her shirt is on backwards and her shoes are on the wrong feet.

Percy is the sort of person who will be caught in a harrowing three-way battle where if he makes one wrong move he'll be impaled, and the only thing in his brain is nyan cat running on a loop, like a tumbleweed in the desert

...they were made for each other.

the new percy jackson tv show trailer looks amazing but more importantly they did what no man has ever been brave enough to do before; they took the ukulele out of riptide.

The most Annabeth Chase ever

i’m gonna be so not normal about them when the show comes out

Percy Jackson and the Olympians premieres Dec. 20 on Disney+

Let us be very clear: Hamas breached international law on the 7th of October. Hamas targeted innocent civilians in the most callous and inhumane manner, and their actions have been rightly condemned by right thinking people across the world.

But we should also be very clear, Israel has breached international law, not just every day since October the 7th, but virtually every single day for decades.

Israel occupies Palestinian land, against international law.

Israel blockades Palestinian territory, against international law.

Israel builds and expands illegal settlements, against international law.

Israel enforces an apartheid system that restricts the movements of Palestinians and denies their fundamental rights, against international law.

And Israel regularly and systematically attacks and kills Palestinian civilians, against international law.

So the question that must be answered by all of us in political life is this: How does the world respond to flagrant abuses of international law when it comes to the horrendous war crimes of Hamas? The response was very clear and very consistent. World leaders queued up to say Israel has the right to defend itself. One after another repeated their words the great and the good, including our government.

“Israel has the right to defend itself.”

Repeated in statement after statement, tweet after tweet, despite the full knowledge that those words have become contaminated. The words, “Israel has the right to defend itself” means in practice that Israel takes that right as license to bombard civilians, to bomb schools, hospitals and other civilian infrastructure. And it has now been taken as license to enforce the displacement of 1 million people from one end of an open air prison to another. To deny food, energy, medical supplies to a besieged civilian population, to actually deny them water, to ensure that children, the sick, the disabled, the elderly will literally die of thirst.

“Israel has the right to defend itself” has now become cover for, “Israel has the right to commit genocide.”

Right in front of our eyes. How come we never hear the words, “Palestine has the right to defend itself”?

Not when a humanitarian flotilla bringing essential supplies to Gaza is met with a military assault and the murder by Israel of nine unarmed activists.

Not when Palestinians march in peaceful protests against illegal blockade and are met again with a military assault and the murder of 300 of them.

Not after the countless bombings of Gaza by Israeli forces.

Not even when Israel targeted and murdered four little Palestinian boys playing football on a beach.

And not when Palestinians were dragged from their homes and forced to watch as those homes were destroyed to allow for new illegal Israeli settlements on lands that are clearly defined in international law as part of Palestine.

And not after the countless offensive attacks by Israel against the people of Gaza or the West Bank, have we or any heard anybody in this house or any Western leader uttered the words, “Palestine has the right to defend itself.”

And why not?

And by the way, I'm not asking you to say those words. And in fact, it's just as well you don't. Because we all know that the people of Palestine can't defend themselves, not against one of the most powerful military forces in the world that is backed up by even more powerful military forces.

The truth is that the people of Palestine, just like the innocent people of Israel, don't need the international community to tell them that their leaders have the right to inflict more bombings, more pain, more suffering. They need the international community to say, “Stop.” To release the hostages, to say stop the bombings, the siege, the slaughter. They need the international community to tell Israel to stop the blockade, stop the apartheid, stop the annexations, to stop the genocide.

And they need countries tarnished to lead the way. And Ireland should be one of those countries that leads the way.

We know colonialism.

We know oppression.

We know conflict.

But we also know conflict resolution.

We know peace building.

We know nation building.

And because of what we know, what our history has taught us, our call tonight must be clear, immediate, full and unequivocal ceasefire fires and a decisive international intervention that leads to negotiations and to a lasting and just peace settlement and to, at long last, to a free, sovereign and independent Palestine.🇵🇸

BEEN THINKING ABOUT THE POINTS IN THIS VIDEO A LOT. ESPECIALLY AFTER SEEING SO MANY ISREALI SETTLERS SITTING SAFE IN THEIR HOMES, CALLING THE FREE PALESTINE MOVEMENT “SICK" WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY HAVING THE PRIVILEGE TO BE FLEEING THE COUNTRY BECAUSE THEY FEEL UNSAFE. WHILE JUST A MILE OVER PALESTINIAN PEOPLE ARE LOCKED IN GAZA, BEING MURDERED BY THE THOUSANDS. NO FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT. NO FOOD, NO WATER. JUST CARNAGE. BROUGHT ON BY THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT/MILITARY. IT'S JUST CRAZY TO ME THAT SO MANY PEOPLE CANT SEE THE HYPOCRISY OF IT ALL. ESPECIALLY THOSE CLAIMING TO BE LIBERAL MINDED.

PUSH PAST YOUR PREJUDICE OF ARAB PEOPLE. LISTEN TO PALESTINIAN VOICES. KEEP SHARING THEIR STORIES. AND INSTEAD OF CLAIMING YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF HISTORY IN THE PAST. BE ON THE RIGHT SIDE NOW! THERE IS NO NEUTRAL STANCE IN A GENOCIDE

ALSO THINKING ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF ZIONISTS I'VE SEEN PUSHING PROPOGANDA. ONLY TALKING ABOUT THE SUPPOSED HORRIBLE THINGS THEY'VE SEEN HAPPEN IN ISREAL INSTEAD OF SHOWING THE WORLD. ALSO THE DEBUNKED AI PHOTOS AND REPORTS. WHILE AT THE SAME TIME I'VE SEEN SO MUCH REAL FOOTAGE OF MANGLED PALESTINIAN PEOPLE. MANGLED CHILDREN KILLED BY ISRAELI FORCES. NOTHING BUT ACTUAL FOOTAGE FROM PEOPLE ON THE GROUND IN GAZA. MEANWHILE THE ISREALI GOVERNMENT HAS TO PAY PEOPLE TO SPREAD LIES THAT THEY CANT BACK UP. ITS SO CLEAR WHATS HAPPENING AND IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO SEE IT THAN I DONT KNOW HOW TO HELP YOU

TO THE ISRAELI PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN RISKING THEIR LIVES PROTESTING THEIR GOVERNMENTS ACTIONS. EVEN BEING THREATENED BY THEIR OWN POLICE FORCE TO BE SENT IN TO GAZA TO DIE FOR VOCALIZING THEIR SUPPORT OF PALESTINIANS. I WISH NOTHING BUT SAFETY FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES.

AND TO THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE. THOSE IN GAZA AND THE WEST BANK AND THOSE OUTSIDE OF IT. IM SO SORRY FOR THE UNIMAGINABLE HORRORS YOU ARE FACING. I’VE SEEN FOOTAGE THAT IS SEERED INTO MY MIND. AND IT'S NOT EVEN A FRACTION OF WHAT YOU ARE BEING SUBJECTED TO IN PERSON. WISHING ETERNAL PEACE FOR THE THOUSANDS OF MARTYRS LOST IN NOT JUST THE PAST 17 DAYS, BUT IN THE PAST 75+ YEARS OF OCCUPATION AND FOR THOSE STILL FIGHTING, I WISH FOR YOU TO SEE A FREE PALESTINE IN YOUR LIFETIME. IM SO SORRY.
