for those who don't know: this is the Aboriginal flag.
the black represents the colour of the skin of the people
the red represents the red earth and the spiritual connection to it, as well as the red ochre used in ceremonies
the yellow circle represents the sun, the giver of life
this is the Torres Strait Islander flag, a flag which is just as important, signifying another group of Indigenous australians
the green represents the land, the blue represents the sea
the black lines separating them represents the Torres Strait Islander people
the centre of the flag has a white dhari, a type of headdress
the white star underneath it symbolizes peace, and the 5 points represent the 5 island groups in the Torres Strait
please correct me if you believe any of this information is wrong

yes i'm rooting for m*leven breakup because byler is neat but mostly? i'm rooting for m*leven breakup for the sake of el and mike.
to me, their romance was always a puppy love born out of a combination of social pressures, naïve curiosity, and a lack of true understanding regarding intimacy and romantic love and what it really is. it was real in that they do truly, deeply care about each other and they are close friends, maybe even shared an attraction, but a maturing romance is so much more than that. they've grown up and out of being boyfriend/girlfriend, and that's okay! i think television/film needs to show more often that most of us don't have definite "soulmates" or first childhood loves that we spend our whole lives with. it doesn't mean these relationships meant nothing and didn't impact us, it just means they've run their course and that something else is in the cards, and this is part of life!
i've always felt el was at her best and most confident self when broken up with mike, discovering who she was and what she liked alongside another girl her age instead of just relying on mike for mentorship on how to live in the real world. she deserves more of an opportunity to find herself, her autonomy, and her independence, and to love who she is, and she's made it clear she's felt insecure in the relationship with mike because she isn't being loved and understood the way she wants, needs, and deserves from someone who is her partner.
also, it's okay if mike doesn't love her in "the way he should". he is not obligated to love her romantically and stay in a relationship with her just because she's a girl, because she "needed someone", or because he cares about her a lot. he shouldn't be pressured into a romance if it's not truly coming from his heart. he deserves freedom to find out and honour who he is, too, instead of just staying in his non-functional first relationship — one he got into as a child, essentially — and defining himself that way because it's what's expected when a boy and a girl are close. he loves her in some way, yes, but it's okay if he doesn't feel comfortable or secure being her boyfriend anymore, for whatever reason that is. he's felt insecure too, and that's valid and it matters.
they are their own people and are steadily growing and changing every day. they need time to figure out who those people are, and it's become clear (at least in my opinion) that those people aren't meant to be a couple at this stage.
they deserve freedom. they deserve to grow up and be authentic to themselves and not feel like they need to lie for the sake of a relationship. they deserve to move on from this version of their relationship that isn't making them happy and rekindle the best part of their bond: their strong, beautiful friendship. they don't have to be a couple if it doesn't make them stronger and better and happier people.
i think it would be healthy and wonderful for a show, especially one consumed frequently by young adults, to show a relationship starting, progressing, and ending on good terms in this way. sometimes things don't work out, and that is okay.

thinking about just how likely it is that Batman was the only person Harley told about having suicidal thoughts whilst in Arkham in Detective Comics #831
"I was seriously considering hanging sheets from the light in my cell and doing the maximum checkout when I heard this voice..."
Detective Comics #831
and how he knew when she strapped that bomb to herself in Batman (2016) #100 that he had to go after her because she was going let herself die in an attempt to end Joker's rampage for good but that she refused to physically do it because he didn't want to her Kill him and he told her that so she's found a middle ground
"We don't need to end it this way. He needs to be locked back up."
that she'd rather die than keep living with his presence in the world haunting her, haunting Them.
That if he did choose Joker, she wasn't going to disarm the bomb herself.
"Honey. You're talking to the wrong girl if you think he's not dangerous locked up in Arkham. It's like I said. That's not good enough for me. Not anymore."
the way he yells for her as she leaves.
"You're only going to get to one of us in time, Bats. Who's it going to be?"
"Harley!"
the way the two men stare at each other in the way they have so many times before, in those moments when Joker stayed or prioritized their fight over her. the way he knew Joker loved the thrill of it all and thought it was funny, thought there was No way Batman would leave him and that this game had to end as according to the rules. And that Batman would do so, he would follow the rules and save him. The way he immediately assumed Batman would choose him, choose his life and choose to stay and disarm the bomb.
And how Batman didn't do that. How Batman walked away from him, leaving him to die or escape or whatever, because He was choosing Harley and her safety and prioritizing her life over him.
The way he stared him in the eyes before choosing the woman Joker had always left to die over him. The way that it was always Him, it was never a question if he would choose Batman over her, but when faced with that type of scenario, Joker is the one that gets left behind to die.
The way she literally woke up in the hospital instead of them having a scene just outside after he removed it. because she didn't intend to live in one of the two options. the way the bomb probably did go off to some capacity because you don't just end up in the hospital knocked out for a week.
Him saying that he's glad she's okay, after everything they've been through, this war and Everything else. and the way he didn't brush off her concern
"I'm glad you're okay."
"Are you?"
"I had to bury my father again today. I did it with my family."
i just, i can't,,,,, i cant

so it’s established morro found and left wu long before the serpentine war cause garmadon just left for chen when morro joined wu, and if the elemental alliance all over ninjago found the master of wind they would have grabbed him for sure. they need all the help they can get
but wouldn’t it be fun if morro left JUST before the war started? wu constantly worrying if morro was safe or not, if he got caught in the war. him telling the alliance to look out for a small child with black and green hair, just in case. morro actively hiding from the elemental masters, especially from the ones hes met before
morro trapped in the cave, hearing peoples voices and movement outside, but too weak and too wounded for his calls for help to be heard. the alliance happily chatting away while setting up camp, unaware of what’s happening inside because who would be foolish enough to go in?
at least he didn’t die alone, technically

I am still thinking about my little performer peppino hc. Not like stage performing but like. The same kind of energy of chefs that work hibachi grills in front of customers? Some people will do the job but some people like to be a little flashy ✨
There was a pizzeria by me that was SO fucking small, u could see the oven and small storage room behind it. But that meant u could see like both chefs making their pizzas. And one of them was SO flashy he was just having a good time. I usually ordered ahead of time to go bc it would take 20 some odd minutes to get an order done but sometimes pizza was an afterthought so id come in and have to wait the full 20 minutes. And its late in the evening and its kinda slow. But hes like spinnin that dough in the air and all that shit and i know what he does during the busy hours so i know hes just flexing. Or maybe he was just vibin who knows. And hed do this thing w the string to tie the box tight that i CANNOT find online but its like, turning the box incredibly fast and looping the strings over itself until the whole box has 8 separate strings that make a cute bow in the center like bro what the fuck that was magic bro howd u do that shit. I think its nice; i like seeing people own their profession. Its his job for like the rest of his life and people love the food and the atmosphere is nice and chill and he gets to flex his skills at 9pm 🍕💖
