Favorite depiction of techno and phil's friendship is them as adoption duo - phil will adopt every child that even looks at him just slightly sad and techno will adopt any animal that comes within a 10m radius of him and they raise them together as weird queerplatonic coparents. They go their sepatate ways for the day to do their own thing and arrive back home in the evening at the same time. Stand-off in front of the door.
Phil, holding a blanket (swaddling a baby): techno what's in the box?
Techno, holding a box (of abandoned puppies): what's in the blanket philza?
YEAAAH that's the ticket right there. Also, that's just canon for dsmp. I enjoy family-coded SBI a lot with Techno as the middle child but honestly, when it comes to dsmp canon or even just specific AU I definitely need more qpp besties emduo in my life, it's A+

today we had a guest lecturer at our school tell us about the early history of wrist watches, which was very cool.
of course, what i find very interesting is the Gender Drift - the first wrist watches were more like jewelry, like bracelets, and worn by women. which makes sense, since they were presumably less likely to wear a waistcoat to keep a pocket watch in. many early wristwatches were actually just pocket watches in leather straps, worn by hunters, soldiers, and expedition crewmembers. as it turns out, having a watch easily available on your wrist is VERY useful, use and technology for it made bounds and leaps during WW1 - and because soldiers fighting in war are such brave manly men, the perception of wrist watches shifted to acceptable masculinity. it's interesting to me because NOW watches are like, THE Manly Status Symbol Jewelry Piece.
the reason i'm telling you all this is because i manages to hunt down my favourite vintage newspaper clipping from the lecture powerpoint. let me present to you: WRISTWATCH CHAD
(because of this i have now looked up Dude Etymology. apparently it used to be a synonym for a Fop or a Dandy, an Extremely Well-dressed Man)

Honestly, Man-Bat would be such a horrifying creature to stumble across in Gotham? At 8'6, he is HUGE, strong enough to carry off a man in his claws while barely slowing down. He might lack the same intelligence he had as Kirk Langstrom but Man-Bat still has keen problem-solving intellect such as picking up an entire wooden desk and throwing it at Batman to hold him in place long enough for an easy bite to the throat. It's that uncanny area between what was once human vs. a hyperpredator making Man-Bat one of the most dangerous creatures to cross whether he's simply hungry enough or has developed a grudge against you for some reason. You can't outrun him and there aren't many places you can hide because not only can he fly, he's able to squeeze into places you yourself would be able to fit into.

bad boy mike fics are always good fun yeah but have you all ever considered writing something where will is the mischievous little rascal from the wrong side of the tracks that listens to loud music and always has little rogue paint splatters on his hand-me-downs or charcoal smudges on his cheek n says the most out of pocket shit under his breath that no one ever hears except for eleven and mike and yet no one believes him when he repeats what will said bc will jus looks so sweet tht obviously he would never say tht mike and mike is the more strait-laced kid that lives in a three story house at the end of the cul-de-sac with his purposely and perfectly disheveled and brand new get-up that gets flustered whenever will suggests they do something they maybe shouldn't but ultimately agrees without question because hello in what world could he ever look into those big hazel eyes of will's and somehow say no? it's literally impossible and he never regrets it even if they do get home late which of course makes hop chew him out when he catches them even though it was will's idea to begin with but again no one ever believes him n it's not like he'd rat him out anyway and coming from such different backgrounds they really shouldn't fit but they do and they're inseparable and even if it's messy cozy and all too lived-in mike feels more at home at the byers-hopper house than he ever does in his castle filled with ghosts and honestly probably for the first time ever actually and obviously they'd make their own adventures for when life gets to be too much bc will feels like he's drowning and mike feels like he's invisible and it's just will with his sketchbook and mike with his leather journal and they talk about anything and everything and share things they've never ever said to anyone else before and ofc when they talk about the future it's always about where they'll go to college together and how they're obviously going to dorm together and get an apartment afterward bc they're undoubtedly going to escape this shitty little town one day and they're clearly Something but also maybe too scared to Be something and . and. is anyone gonna write this or am i gonna have to be a big boy and do it myself 🙄

It's honestly a miracle liberals possess enough self-preservation instinct and cognitive awareness to tie their own shoes in the morning
