I know this is going to make me sound pretensions but I have to get it off my chest. I feel an unimaginable rage when someone posts a photo and is like "this picture looks like a renaissance painting lol" when the photo clearly has the lighting, colors and composition of a baroque or romantic painting. There are differences in these styles and those differences are important and labeling every "classical" looking painting as renaissance is annoying and upsetting to me. And anytime I come across one of those posts I have to put down my phone and go take a walk because they make me so mad
I am just so disappointed with the direction DC is taking Damian, it’s honestly making me consider leaving comics. Batman and Robin by Tomasi was one of the first comic books I read and Damian was the Robin I grew up with. Like I get people like Tim and he the Robin some people grew up, but some of his stans need to consider that some people feel the same way about Damian. Disregarding Damian character development for the sake of making Tim Robin again just ain’t it.
Lmao it’s legit never been IT but ppl constantly complain about Tim even tho tim hasn’t been robin for like over 10 years ITS OVER,its DONE but I constantly saw ppl BITCHING and complaining about him not being robin on legit every comic platform ever TO THIS DAY , they never gave this fucking child a chance and like yea I get it , I was once a person that didn’t like Damian cause I was new to comics and everyone else was saying shit so I was just like??? oh Ok bad robin (the movies didn’t help) but the thing is I actually decided to read his comics and he has legit the best character development and character themes among the robins (at least for me i love jason and dick but yea) DC is legit telling me you can’t outgrow your abusive upbringing, if you’re child that experienced horrible beliefs by your family due to traditions you can’t actually better yourself , you can’t actually grow and have support and try to connect to ppl your own age do to a missed childhood that’s how it’s coming across to me ,yes you have relapses but the way dc handles it is point blank just bad sometimes outright racist
The fact that he’s also a character of Arab/Chinese descent and its NOW that they acknowledge it when it’s the time to be turned evil to make way for the white fave for nostalgia bait is something that makes me see red I don’t know what to tell you, i BET im gonna see ppl being like “Wow fInAllY MY RoBiN iS bAcK uwu” like shut up dude he never LEFT what y’all were missing was his friends and character not acting like new52!Tim and i LOVE tim when he’s with YJ but all the way to rebirth it just gave me a bad feeling seeing tim in the same colors as damian and damian constantly having this push and pull in editorial land
the thing is i also feel bad for kids that actually like these characters when Supersons started i saw so many kids being HYPED,they cosplayed them and everything it was wholesome and like you had a perfect gateway for kids to read comics but like now its all in the gutter
So many characters have been butchered post rebirth but I can’t quit DC cause I think they’re gonna fix this eventually, it happens all the time , it happened with cass and she’s ok-ish now depending on which fan you ask🤷🏽♀️ but I know if there’s enough fan outcry they’ll eventually have to listen ....I hope ,just at this point speak with your wallet stop buying Teen titans or anything you dont like , support the creators you actually like.
Edit: I think I’m also sad because most of the robins got to build their own teams based on friendship Damian never got to have that, every time we’re close to getting something they always screw with his character it’s super tiring, I just feel disappointed for the ppl that actually tried in dc mostly Gleason but his ideas kept getting shut down because of editorial agenda thinking Damian could never be a true hero, they just don’t like Jon or they barely know maya, we’ve never gotten chance to actually see Damian have conflicts with ppl he’s actually compatible with and how he would grow as a result
It’s bad when most of the teen titans writers in 4 YEARS have said that they actually haven’t read Damian comics with B&R and RSOB being one the most important things for Damian’s character so they just kept having ppl that had no chemistry with him and it just felt forced now we’re getting the consequences
This entire thing is just going to reinforce ppl’s belief about Damian and I guess I’m just gonna see a whole new wave of ppl saying the same damn thing for the past 10 yrs about Damian having the robin mantle
This is art. A masterpiece, actually.
men always get mad when you say you’ve never watched the avengers or pulp fiction like ok ... have you seen all the barbie movies ?? no then shut up
the triple burden (housework, childcare AND paid employment) IS a real issue that feminists have been discussing for decades... but the way tiktok tradfem tradwife girlies have twisted that into "it's too much stress for women to take on all the housework AND work full-time, so we should ~nurture our divine femininity~ by quitting our jobs becoming housewives and relying completely on our Strong Men to support us financially!!" rather than "it's too much stress for women to take on all the housework AND work full-time, so maybe men could start pulling their fucking weight around the house more and do the dishes every now and again"
The peace of mind of having a shatterproof door...
