Well this makes me mad. Cool toph is the best toph. Why make her into earth kingdom katara? Katara is cool, but in a fundamentally different way.
ok im going to #seriouspost for a second here. I don't think Harry Potter is a manifesto. I think it was a flawed passion project that millennials latched onto because of the fantasy of sticking it to their mean teachers and arbitrarily categorizing themselves (hogwarts houses; it's the thinking millennial's astrology). I think the fact that the series got popular when and how it did was very much a product of its time.
I don't think Harry Potter is the biggest symbol of JKR's bigotry. I think the most flagrant sign of that was how she responded to critics. I watched her become radicalized in real time. I watched how she doubled down on her racism when she was called out for the ways she promoted her tragically mid fantastic beasts movies. I watched her chase marginalized teenagers with a double digit follower count off of twitter for daring to criticize her thought process, and no one with any kind of power standing against her because she was the one who was paying them. This isn't to say Harry Potter is without flaws. This is to say she really didn't give a shit about that. Getting rich and powerful is a hell of a drug, and she had enough sycophants that she had no reason to care about what her critics were saying.
She was convinced that she was a martyr; a voice for the unheard; a leader for the ages, so of course her detractors were the bad guys. And I think we should take this to heart. We should see this as an example of how easy it is to get radicalized; if you think of yourself as a paragon of virtue, you are going to think that whatever you see as good and right is an objective fact. Most people don't know this, but the majority of terfs start out as trans allies. You are not immune to propaganda! You are not immune to falling into dangerous ideologies!!!
This is why the most important thing you can do as an activist is to listen. Do NOT think you're above being wrong; do NOT develop a god complex; do NOT form an identity out of being right all the time. Involve yourselves in the groups you claim to speak for. Listen to trans women; share resources that help trans women; familiarize yourself with the diversity of experiences that trans people have and the struggles they face.
No, none of you are as bad as JKR because you don't have her money or her power. You will likely never have the capacity for harm she does. But check yourselves. Do not affirm yourselves into thinking you always have the moral high ground. Watch yourselves; humble yourselves; check yourselves for signs of cult behavior and internalized prejudice. You are always learning. You will always be learning. Do not allow yourselves to get a power trip from brushing off marginalized voices.
I've spent the last night searching for a way to make a fire emblem from hack that replaces lyn with Darth Vader, but all I'm finding is gay computers.
Is a tyrannical dark lord of the sith too much to ask? I even got the sprite, all I need is to put it into the software
I'm mad rn }=(
Imagine an Isekai about someone who escapes a multiversal one man genocide of the self who has to stop the ruler of this world from continuing his massacre by befriending and fighting all manner of fun characters, only for the plot twist to be that the person who is doing multiversal genocide against themselves, isn't actually the same person, but rather the "future" son of the protagonist and then after some brutal exposition and main character death they get better and God lets them proper time travel to"fix" their son's tragic future backstory.
I dunno bout if they are a hobbit, they oughta get a banana for scale
just got back into gardening so i’ve forgotten. are basil leaves supposed to be this big
Hal is nice. I liked when he went insane, but not when they retconed him. Give my goodbois some character development!I also like alan Scott because he's such a symbol of determined will and he isn't even a proper GL . I was also hoping absolute bat had something like bluesky, but makes sense to have a twitter too keep up with everything.
Best GL?
Does absolute bat have twitter?
Ngl I haven't read a ton of GL comics, but Hal's def my fav of the ones that I know
Also, he's like, what, 20 something? He definitely does
That's cool AF.
I was a moron back then s, so I wouldn't have teven really noticed d
legitimately my first feminist awakening as a ten year old child was realizing that girls were expected to respect “boy stuff” but boys were never expected to respect “girl stuff”

Then, if you break up, you have to break them
On the anniversary of our time together I want to cuddle a the couch and force you to watch a little movie I made out of the first time I violated you. I want to lick your tears away as you beg your past self to run in your mind.
I want to feel you up as you watch yourself scream and beg for me to stop doing the same in the video. To feel how limp and docile you have become in my hands.
I want to force you to cum while you watch yourself forced into the tiny cage that you now sleep in, too small to stand or lay down in, and shocked until all that comes from your mouth is an incoherent babble of broken screams.
Then I want to carve hearts in your flesh to show you how much I love you.
Y'know how batman said his name was batman when bound by the Lasso of truth, possibly due to his disassociation from the Bruce Wayne persona and possibly due to self imposed brainwashing? Well once the rest of the batfamily finds out about it, specifically Tim Drake, he asks both Wonder Girls (Cassie and Donna) to borrow the Lasso. Kon-el Superboy is there as well as Tim's control group. so after explaining his plan to everyone involved, he explains that he is testing to see if it was possible to trick himself into tricking the Lasso of truth.
Jason Todd unwittingly walks into the room ( they are at the manor under the guide of planning a celebration) as they are testing and suggests to Tim to, instead of redefining the rules of the Lasso, redefine what constitutes as an appropriate answer to questions. As such, whenever Jason Todd gets Lasso'd and asked questions, he speaks in broken Russian to throw people off. Damian just speaks Arabic to inconvenience them. When tim looks confused about why jason is lassod enough to need to know this, jason explains that this is why he got the best at game night with the league. Everyone gets a moment of understanding over this revelation.
Tim, who was never told about game night, is more confused than ever, but takes the advice to heart and uses it as an excuse to learn and use Klingon.
The only batfamily members to be consistently allowed into game night are Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson, because Bruce doesn't actually play, and Grayson doesn't go all out.jason stoped getting invites after dying,and only returns as Dick's plus one occasionally. Tim was never invited because it was unanimously decided he would win.
Tim is hurt by this
