#(at 23 years old)

[anotherpapercut]

just had an absolutely sickening conversation with a 20 year old I work with wherein I had to impress upon her that her and her friends need to be extremely cautious going to the gay clubs right now with increasing attacks happening. make sure any very young, very newly adult queer people in your life know that we're a family and community and part of that is being willing to fight for your siblings lives if they're under attack. even if it's a person you despise, you stick up for your family and they will stick up for you. we are all we have. the cops refuse to help, and so do most people outside the community. we cannot survive without each other

#go in groups! leave before closing! bring something that can be thrown at someone! park close! #heart breaking #i dont wanna talk to the 18 year olds coming for the first time excited to have fun about how they have to be on guard at all times #i want kids who are just blossoming into the adults theyre going to be to have a safe place to feel loved and nurtured #im only 23 for christs sake #why am I having to talk to a 20 year old like im their 60 year old grandparent #i just want to feel safe with my community in what is essentially the family home

meg baby, I promise we’ll all look the other way if you decide to strangle that chimera ant built bitch. I promise we won’t say nothing.

#nicki got to be one of the nastiest bitches I’ve ever seen in my life #you ain’t had a fucking hit in 10 yrs good enough to act the way you do #it’s crazy it took her being so vile to meg for ppl to get it #it’s always ‘protect blk women’ w/her until it’s somebody she don’t like lmao #and her only beef with her is that she collabed with cardi #the only one who stuck by her side mind you so ofc she #she’s been terrible and I remember back in 2017 when ppl jumped me for ‘defending a Latina woman’ over her #the same bitch that co opted a hashtag meant for missing and murdered blk women for her own bullshit #while cardi was using her platform to speak up for breonna Taylor and police brutality? oh okay #she’s a nasty witch and her karma will come #rap beef aside #‘how you got 3 Grammys and can’t stay on beat?’ #how are you the supposed queen and been rapping since Jesus was in Jerusalem but have zero? #bringing up her dead mother..you deserve to rot #cherry chats 🍒 #I’m so happy cardi no longer feeds into her bullshit and lets her stupid ass talk to the wall #all the new girls are outshining her and I’m so glad they don’t have to grovel to her #the fact that these girls just came out and are her competition says more abt nicki than it does Meg cardi latto or anybody else #her peers should be missy kim queen latifah etc #and yet she’s linking up with 23 year olds and beefing with girls 20 years her junior #guess that predator spirit run in the family huh

the post i reblogged about how there are mature 23 year olds that have degrees and children is so bad. like we have to acknowledge the wealth inequality that leads to these twenty-three year olds to be able to run their lives like that in the first place, they don't have their life together for no reason, they almost certainly had the money and support to get to that point. maturity based off things like kids, college, mortgage is just a thinly veiled echo of capitalism's skewed view on success in life. there are plenty of young poor people with children who you'd just as quickly throw into the immature category

#saving grace is that it seems like op was just mad about people say it was weird for a 23 and 29 year old to date #but my point still stands because they are pitting their imaginary 23 yr old versus the ones they thought were wrong and immature

I'm bad at math, but is Bruce theoretically 38 years old when he goes into the time stream?

Hear me out (and canon likes to fluncate their ages, so this is my best guess without trying to account for birthdays):

Bruce becomes the legal guardian of 9 year old Dick when he's 23. That's a 14 year difference.

Jason becomes Robin when Dick leaves at 18. Jason is 13. That's a five year difference.

Jason dies at 15, and Tim becomes Robin at 13. That's a two year difference.

The age difference between Tim and Bruce would thus be 21 years.

Tim becomes Red Robin to find Bruce at 17.

That means that Bruce had to be 38, right? Why was I imagining him closer to 50?

Adopting so many kids must have aged him

#tim was 2-3 when he watched the graysons fall #jason would have been 17 when he attacked to at titan tower #this would make dick 24 when his dad dies and he has to take up the batman mantle he never wanted #UtRH is more tragic if you think about how jason wasnt even an adult #i do love the parallels of 23 year old bruce being a father to 9 year old dick and 24 year old dick being a father to 10 year old damian #also it's definitely the continued exposure to crime and violence that gave bruce his stress lines and grey hair (or jason dying) #this is all theoretical anyways because DC writes its own rules for how to math ages #dc universe #dc comics #bruce wayne #tim drake #jason todd #dick grayson #the consequences of dc being vague on their ages is that means the characters speedrun all their trauma and can't breath through it #they are all so young

dorian gray wasn’t even that vain, he was just 20. everyone has a moment in their 20s when they realise they’re actually kinda hot, that’s a part of life and it’s totally Normal. it’s not dorian’s fault that all these sexually repressed men are obsessed with him, nor is it his fault that he’s exclusively attracted to red flags. this is just what happens when you’re in your 20s </3

#his portrait starts to reflect the corruption of his soul? yeah that’s what happens when you turn 23 #it utterly consumes him and destroys everyone’s lives? have you ever been 27? #dorian wasn’t even aware of his own beauty before henry decided to freak him out about it #sure he’s petulant but again: he’s just some 20 year old dude #I think everyone in their 20s should have an ‘I’m hot’ moment #the picture of dorian gray #dorian gray #lord henry wotton #ghost speaks

i am so serious that they need to change kon's alias like it's getting ridiculous. 6 foot plus tall guy built like a brick shithouse with stubble drops from the sky and lands on his combat boots on cracked pavement, adjusts his leather jacket, and says "i'm superboy"

#kon: i'm superBOY #natasha: you're 23 years old and have a beard #p

New pitch for dc: don't let any of your characters age they all just stay the same age for atleast the next 10 years with the only exception being Tim Drake who will do so at the same rate as people usually age eg: one irl year = one Tim Drake year

#dc #dc comics #tim drake #why?? #bc i think itd be funny if we get to a point where tim is the oldest bat #and everything else is retconed to fit #13 year old tim is annoying dick about bruce needing a robin #no 23 year old tim annoying dick about bruce needing a robin #this will mean most of tims established romantic interests will have to be disregarded #but he can still hang out with the yj #hes just gonna be their sad young adult friend who doesnt have any friends his own age

Nothing will be funnier than the fact that in JLU Lex Luthor knows the Flash's face but can't do anything about it because he has no idea who the fuck that is

#luthor was sure that every superhero's civilian identity was some kind of famous figure #instead he finds a normal 23 year old guy with red hair and freckles #dc #wally west #lex luthor #jl #jlu #justice league #justice league unlimited #the flash

I think the most egregious excuse I’ve seen for people modding astarion to look like temu brand j*mes ch*rles is some shit like “well maybe we don’t want to be romancing someone who looks 40 years old” THEN DONT ROMANCE THE (two hundred and) 40 YEAR OLD???????? YOU FUCKING IDIOT??????? HELLO??????

#op #smoothstarion is an affront to god #and you do not deserve men if this is how you treat them #if you were a finance bro you be 52 years old with a 47 year old exwife a 36 year old exwife a 29 year old exwife and a 23 year old fiancee #loser

DC X DP PROMPT #26

Danny had to go. Preferably somewhere far away from the shit storm that his home dimension currently is. So he does. Phantom travels the multiverse looking for the perfect dimension to call Home. The search is long, and isn't very fruitful, but he learns something new nearly everyday!

He would have been fine to continue this pattern of exploring a new dimension, label it unsuitable, and move on. But Danny had managed to find himself in a Situation™.

Eight-year-old Timothy Drake is dead. He died alone in a mausoleum of his parents' neglect. Tim has not been dead long, in fact, his skin had yet to cool. This simple fact, paired with the unimaginable coincidence (I think not) of Danny entering this dimension directly on top of Tim, lead to two (2) miraculous things happening.

One; Timothy Jackson Drake, son of Janet and Jack Drake, was now a full-fledged ghost. Something that normally would not have happened in his situation.

Two; Danny James Fenton, apprentice of Clockwork, was now bound to the newly departed body of Tim Drake. Having portaled directly into the body as its original soul left it caused Danny to become trapped.

Tim cannot stray far from his body, he must now guide Danny in How To Be Tim.

#dc x dp #dpxdc #danny phantom #tim drake #tim dies :( #danny gets stuck in time body #wonder how that happened #*side eyes clockwork* #danny is a full 23 year old man now stuck in the body of an 8 year old #this totally wont lead to issues #danny resisting the urdge to parent the ghost of the body hes inhabiting #its a real struggle #events play out generally the same #batman when he finds out tim is a two for one special :0 #“school is over ill totally post more” me when i lie

to natsu, nalu is basically canon

i've had this thought for a while now but

i think natsu dragneel already has it in his mind that he and lucy are.... Together together. Girlfriend Boyfriend. Husband Wife. Married With Kids.

one day lucy gathers enough guts to confess to natsu and he just goes "lucy i dont get it why are you confessing are we not already together but yes i love you too you weirdo"

and lucy is like ... "what did you just say"

and we finally figure out that natsu basically thought they were dating this whole time. and lucy's losing her mind and going "why didnt you SAY anything???" and natsu, dumb dork that he is, just goes "you have to say it???"

AND I GET IT!!! like,,, she's his number one priority every time, sleeps at her house, spends most of his time with her, puts his head in his lap when he's motion sick, saves/catches her multiple times, basically has seen her naked (and only ever showed physical attraction to her and no one else), considers her his best friend and with happy they make this little quaint family, and he doesn't understand why she thought they weren't together. she rewrote his book ffs and saved his life.

HE UPROOTED A WHOLE RAINBOW TREE AND SAILED IT DOWN A RIVER FOR HER. even natsu dragneel, "i love my nakama" incarnate, wouldn't do that for anyone else. so of course he thinks they're together. and lucy just thinks they're tethering on the edge of romance and friendship.

in every universe there was, natsu and lucy were always together. edo-natsu and edo-lucy who have a kid now, and even in "fairy nail" nakku and lusha.

they're just meant to be Together in every way sense and form. natsu knows that!!!

#fairy tail #nalu #natsu dragneel #fairy tail 100 years quest #fairy tail theory #fairy tail 100 yq #lucy heartfilia #can natsu and lucy just get ON with it already #ive watched this show in 5th grade and was a nalu shipper at 10 years old #IM NOW 23 GRADUATED UNIVERSITY AND THEY STILL ARENT TOGETHER #a nalu fan through and through

I’m having some pretty big feelings about turning 30 next month.

It’s making me feel anxious and sad. I lost so many years to trauma and mental illness. So many years being in a dissociative state where I can’t recall most memories and don’t even know what happened.

And I’m someone that likes to remind people that “you aren’t behind, you can still have a lot of good life left” and it’s true. But this is a reminder I need right now and want to share with others in case they need it, too.

It’s okay to have big feelings about the years you’ve lost. It’s okay to mourn and grieve the years. It’s okay if you move beyond those feelings but they come back whether it’s because of a birthday or another reminder. You are allowed to have those big feelings. You don’t need to be positive all the time.

What happened sucked, and you’re allowed to acknowledge that and feel that.

i’m genuinely of the belief that the megamind sequel/tv show was meant to premiere on nickelodeon in like 2011 alongside their other spinoff shows, but then got shelved after the movie flopped financially and has been sitting around in some archive gathering dust until peacock decided to release it as “new content.”

like, can we just look at the visual evidence alone?

he fits right in with this lineup. peacock, i’m onto you

#megamind #megamind sequel #megamind vs the doom syndicate #dreamworks #peacock #megamind fans grab your giant robots of world domination or whatever #why does megan mind look like he’s from a ps2 game 😭 #the fact that the animation is a major downgrade from a nearly 15 year old movie…… #the replacement of famous main voice actors with ppl trying to imitate them…… #they thought they could play us for fools. us! the megamind hive! #i’m cracking this case wide open baby #they did NOT just make this shit. this has to be recycled #new conspiracy theory dropped #my post #23
