Congrats guys
Not a sports guy but this is wonderful
nowhere else
Sharing joy and absurdity
I think the best most human thing in the world is strangers doing a silly thing together
You can tell that Brennan fucking loves the absurdity of the normal world and then crazy shit going in in the background, just the over the topness of teenagers fighting gods for homework and multiple New Yorkers getting into a pigeon wedding seems to tickle Brennan in the same way that the idea of fighting anything with a duck taped weapons attached to a car and ramming into anything that looks spoopy. And it’s fucking amazing.
big fan of urban fantasy and similar genres because theres nothing funnier to me than a setting where youve got people fighting with enchanted blades and bows and hopping around doing magic tricks but you can also just hit a demon with your car if you feel like it
Eddie, let’s go homophob hunting”
The people who police your gender will police your gender even if you're cis.
Eat them.
Holy shit, ghangst
So we have Ghast angst now, apparently
Everyone leaves their lives with these conditions so whenever they ask if you’re doing something out of the ordinary, the answer is always gonna be no because it’s not out of the ordinary for you. Heck the only reason that I knew I had ADHD was because my sister already had it and I have a lot of the same symptoms so I already knew what they looked like. If they want to help people more, they should use comparisons because if someone only ever saw an apple being called an orange, they wouldn’t be able to say they don’t have an orange in their hand, as what they think is an orange to them is an apple someone else.
I feel like I would have been diagnosed with OCD a lot earlier if the vast majority of screening questions (for mental illnesses in general) weren't based on the person's perception of their own behavior, in isolation. and what i mean by that is asking someone with OCD "do you wash your hands excessively?" is not a good question.
a person with OCD believes they are washing their hands the correct number of times. it's not excessive. we believe we're exhibiting best practices and helping to keep everything clean.
better questions might be, "does it seem like you wash your hands a lot more than your friends or family?" "do you get dry patches or cuts on your hands from washing your hands?" "do you find it deeply distressing, more so than how you've seen other people react, when you get something on your hands that you can't clean off right away?"
being asked "are you overly preoccupied with bugs, symmetry, and contamination?" also got "no" responses from me years ago in my life. what they didn't ask for, and didn't know, was what *exactly* I was doing in my day to day life that genuinely ate up my time and mental space to a concerning degree, but I *didn't know* that other people don't do this.
"do you spend a lot of time cleaning?" -> no, it's not a lot. it's a good amount. why?
"do you become frustrated because it seems like no one else meets your organizational and cleanliness standards - do you often 'take over' for other people because they can't do it right - do new friends seem surprised by how strict you can be about your living space?" -> oh. yeah. yeah I get it now.
Art is a kindness
the suffering never ends
I want a revolution from this society that in the current moment has basic kindness as news
shit’s bad!!!!! here are some not terrible headlines to take the edge off a little bit
Did anyone know originally in the test screening for Puss in boots: The last wish they blow up Disneyland.
I like the idea that Billy and Marvel are completely separate beings but still act the same so almost every interaction is just
Billy (Golf announcer voice): And there goes Two face, or now both one face as they take the lead on the three legged race. Unfortunate that a good man like Harvey Dent became such a violent criminal after his accident.
Marvel (Also in Golf announcer voice): It comes from his unassisted D.I.D., which he most likely hid as it developed as D.I.D. is seen in quite a negative within modern society, leaving many ostracized and falling through the cracks of medical assistance, instead of being helped to not cure it but to assist in living with it.
Billy: Well said Marvel, now it looks like they’re trying to take a leap and-
Both half’s of Two Face fall knocking down most of the others like dominos
Billy and Marvel: (Trying their hardest to not laugh and failing miserably.
I just remembered an idea I had where a bunch of DC characters who are kinda like 2 people in 1 body get temporarily separated, without any of the consequences that would normally come with that. They are then put into sort of game show to see how well they work together with their ‘other half’, and it is broadcasted across the world.
People like Etigran, Two Face, Creeper and more all get seperated. Some challenges they face include the newly wed game, three legged races, and various other cooperative games.
There’s tons of arguments, fighting, and a general lack of beating any challenges.
Billy and Captain Marvel work together so beautifully that whoever started the whole thing decided they didn’t need to keep playing so they spend rest of the game narrating together like those sports announcers. Billy’s a radio host and has great chemistry with Marvel so they’re extremely entertaining.
Occasionally they will take a few minutes to roast the contestants kind of like those old muppet men. It’s great and the viewers love it so much they forget their shock over the whole ‘Captain Marvel is using a young boy as his host/anchor to this realm’ thing.
Multiple contestants try to kill their other half. When they fail Billy and Marvel say “Womp womp” in sync.
Had a good chuckle at this one
Jammer: what were you thinkin?
Evan: cum :/
THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN
If they give me three things, I’m taking the three things
The wise mountain elder offers three items to slay the great evil. Your predecessors assumed you had to prove yourself by choosing the best one of the three; you just grab the entire lot and walked out.
No, he just gets the money he spends on the bat stuff back
I've been seeing a lot of knight posts recently. pretty great
They be talking about my chain mail, yet I don’t see their asses on the front lines. Where’s all that armor going fuckers
This is really interesting to think about.
I really like what this physicist, Lamar Glover, has to say in Behind the Curve.
+ this part from Spiros Michalakis:
I’m betting that when Barry got his super speed, or even Wally gets super speed. They become more organized now they can do it in two seconds. And for Perry I think he just assumes that Clark tries to fight super villains and gets knocked out, given the amount of good energy coming out of him.
Love the idea of the League members realizing that certain things about each other are lies. Like they think Barry, who's perpetually late (on purpose) is probably chaos incarnate in his lab, but they find out he's meticulous, organized and one of the best CSIs anyone's ever worked with.
When they call Perry to cover for Clark (he got knocked out of commission during a fight and is recuperating via sun lamps for a few weeks minimum), they figure Clark going absent out of nowhere will send up alarm bells (especially as Hal's handling the call, Batman is also out of commission). But it turns out Perry's entirely unsurprised and just orders them to tell Clark he better have one hell of a draft ready when he's back and also to take it easy (though none of them agree if they heard the last part).
YES! Health relationships.
Haven’t collabed with @renconner in a long while for a mini comic (minus our big one, Instinct). We were talking about one of Stan’s lowest moments involving being outside with that damn sign, so we decided to make a comic with Stan remembering it. I’ve also kinda of assumed Filbrick would lie to Ford about what’s going on with Stan (Stan probably did too to some extent).
Instead of hitting people with cupids arrow, he shoots the with a Gatling gun.
dipper is so real i too can't flirt but can make up an insult on the spot that will stick with you forever and cause neverending damage. if provoked enough
Worlds greatest wizard ✅
Just remember everyone:
Brilliant Artificer ✅️
Talented Barbarian ✅️
Himbo ❌️
I thought Stan was going to tell him how to bully them with kys too.
don't show him modern technology; it won't end well
bonus under the cut:
:/
I saw this after getting out of the pool, holy fuck
🛟
I miss the old days when we could go into the woods to fight monsters and undiscovered creatures and would be seen as heroes. Now when I do it they say it’s animal cruelty, bitch I go in and challenge a bear in its own language, they know what they’re doing and I never kill them. We lost so much excitement now that we don’t go missing for months and coming back with an unconscious creature with us both covers in wounds.
This is amazing
I had a dream that the king and the queen of a small country had a daughter. They needed a son, a first-born son, so in secret, without telling anyone of their child’s gender, they travelled to the nearby woods that were rumoured to house a witch.
They made a deal with that witch. They wanted a son, and they got one. A son, one made out of clay and wood, flexible enough to grow but sturdy enough to withstand its destined path, enchanted to look like a human child. The witch asked for only one thing, and that was for their daughter.
They left the girl readily.
The witch raised her as her own, and called her Thyme. The princess grew up unknowing of her heritage, grew up calling the witch Mama, and the witch did her very best to earn that title.
She was taught magic, and how to forage in the woods, how to build sturdy wooden structures and how to make the most delicious stews. The girl had a good life, and the witch was pleased.
The girl grew into a woman, and learned more and more powerful magics, grew stronger from hauling wood and stones and animals to cook, grew smarter as the witch taught her more.
She learned to deal with the people in the villages nearby, learned how to brew remedies and medicines and how to treat illness and injury, and learned how to tell when someone was lying.
Every time the pair went into town, the people would remark at just how similar Thyme was to her mother.
(Thyme does not know who and what she is. She does not know that she was born a princess, that she was sold. She only knows that one night after her mother read her a story about princesses and dragons, her mother had asked her if she ever wanted to be a princess.)
((Thyme only knows that she very quickly answered no. She likes being a witch, thank you very much, she likes the power that comes with it and the way that she can look at things and know their true nature.))
The witch starts preparing the ritual early, starts collecting the necessities in the winter so they can be ready by the fall equinox. Her daughter helps, and does not ask what this is for, just knows that it is important.
The witch looks at Thyme, both their hands raised into the air over a complicated array of plants, tended carefully to grow into a circle, and says, sorry.

Can’t wait for that man to be the most supportive father ever
Watching never stop blowing up has made me realize that 80s action movies would probably be my favorite genre if it weren't for homophobia/lack of representation being a thing.
Kingskin being a bisexual king running into his exes around every corner, characters just being fine with it when the PCs accidentally refer to the characters with different pronouns, when Jack/Paula talks about his ex husband to a bar tender and hes just like
"my ex husband is in Tampa, he got a new boyfriend :( "
and jacks like "HES GAY?" Right after talking about his ex husband.
Background characters having top surgery scars, real excited for the complicated mess that's probably gonna be Jennifer drips and Matilda Drops.
Brennan Lee Mulligan is just so aggressively an ally and I love him so much for it. That man has so much love and support in him.
Don’t worry, you still driving me crazy
girl you've been running through my mind all day
