The reason I refuse to acknowledge any other batfam death other than Jason is because, narratively, none of the others mattered.
Jason's death shaped everything that came after it in how the batfam responded to his death and handled it, and completely shaped his character.
I don't even know about most of the other "deaths" because they were so comparatively unimportant.

Sigh.
I’m gonna do it. I’m gonna say it again.
1. I warn you against taking the story beats in MHA at face value. Just because something looks one way doesn’t mean Horikoshi won’t make it go a different direction later. He only puts like one or two major story beats per chapter. Don’t be fooled by them.
2. Just because Hawks lost his quirk doesn’t mean he’s done. If you think this, you’re guilty of the exact thing the moral of MHA warns you against: equating a person’s worth to their quirk. Why’re some of y’all agreeing with AFO on this? We literally got a flashback to chapter 1 where this perspective was explicitly debunked!
3. Heroes are heroes BECAUSE they make sacrifices for others. I guarantee that by the end of this, many characters will suffer permanent consequences not as a result of being heroes but because definitionally making these sacrifices is what makes them heroes in the first place. And yet I predict a significant, noisy portion of this “fandom” is gonna cry about how someone losing their quirk or becoming disabled or dying ruins everything because some of these characters can no longer be “pro heroes”--as if the story hasn’t been telling us all along that “pro heroes” aren’t necessarily real heroes. Anybody can be a hero, regardless of their quirk. That isn’t referring to PRO heroes but TRUE heroes. Some of y’all need to listen to Stain more closely.

Liberals will whine about the self-supposed “horrors” of Soviet “forced industrialization” when this is what European industrialization looked like:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Has there been any serious attempt in calculating as of how many people that died because of work-related circumstances in the West over the period of capitalistic industrialization while furthering the enrichment and power of the bourgeoisie?
We can safely imagine it had to have been tremendously many.
Here is a serious attempt made by the German Marxist Robert Kurz:
However, the book has, as of 2023, not been translated into other languages from the original German.

it’s really important after a stressful day or situation that you check in with your body and take a deep breath and relax your jaw and shoulders and remind yourself it’s okay we might know that it’s over but sometime our bodies stay tensed up so take some time to check in with yourself

Over the years, I've learn this ability called "not giving a fuck."
There is a new instalment of a beloved property that completely misses the point of the original? I'm not watching it. I pretend it doesn't exist. I go on with my life unbothered.
Fandom discourse? Ignore it. Block all tags related. Bigotry? Report it. Don't engage with it. I am not here to debate my very existence with people that won't change their minds anyway. see something I don't like, I close the tab and move on. I refuse to partake in the backlash to the backlash to the backlash about something that doesn't matter.
I'm here to have a good time not to get angry. Being angry is actually very unpleasant. Sometimes being a hater is fun, but ranting about how BBC Sherlock sucks ass (while also being secretly fond of it) and having a performative nemesis relationship Steven Moffat is not the same thing about seriously getting mad about a TV show. If something is seriously bothering you, just LEAVE. You are allowed to do that. It is good for your mental health.
Anger is a powerful motivator, a fuel to fight against injustice. Save it for things that are actually worth it, direct it towards people that actually deserve it. Not some random guy online trying to get under your skin for the shits and giggles or the controversy-as-advertisement machinery built to boost views for revenue.
Take control of your online experience. You'll have a better time existing on the internet if you do. I promise.

Kitty Stryker to Release 'Ask Yourself: The Consent Culture Workbook' - XBIZ.com
Kitty Stryker's new book, “Ask Yourself: The Consent Culture Workbook,” will debut on June 2.
“Ask Yourself,” available on paperback and Kindle, is a how-to guide to help navigate the undercurrents of social influences while building an affirmative culture of consent to practice in everyday lives.
The title is a companion workbook to Stryker’s “Ask: Building Consent Culture,” inviting readers on a contemplative journey through 28 days of journaling over four weeks. The various sections explore “Introspection,” “Our Relationship to Each Other,” “Our Relationship to the Community” and “Reflection,” through discussions of sexuality, boundary violations, substance use, sexual assault, abuse, trauma and other topics.
Stryker called the book “a much-needed resource that addresses the nuanced dynamics of consent in our society, and hopefully sparks conversations about cultivating a more enlightened culture based on mutual respect and autonomy, which challenges the existing power structure that often rewards entitlement and overshadows individual agency.”

Ask yourself by whose standards you determine your self worth. You should definitely not base it on the ones who don’t have the capacity to love.
