(a kinda late) Happy New Years All! | ProfessorUber’s Year of the Bat(-Family) | Aka time to actually read these comics!

My semi-belated New Years Resolution is to read through a bunch of classic (and modern) runs on various Bat-Family members to get semi up to date on the who mythos.

Am I getting into it a bit late? Perhaps. To be fair; the pandemic + university has left me with little time/energy over these past few years. But lately I’ve been getting into Batman comics and I wanted to continue to that.

I’ve seen a few reading guides but will mostly just go at my own pace/order and just enjoy the ride I think. Current focus though I think is Tim Drake’s Robin (1993-2009) to see more of early Tim and Steph and afterwards probably Cass’ Batgirl run. Also going to be looking into Oracle stuff as well.

There’s a lot of comics out there and maybe this is a tad daunting; but I’ve also been enjoying these characters and the fandom surrounding them. Wayne Family Adventure really helped me get into this weird found family of vigilantes, so maybe now it’s time to learn their roots.

So I think it’s worth the time, even if I kind of wish I did this sooner (but again; there’s been a pandemic going on so been distracted).

So I am joining the Bat-Family Fandom! Probably! Hopefully! Got lots of comics to read first though…

Wish me luck!

(Although honestly my main New Year’s resolution is probably to write more. But reading Batman comics is a close second,)

Happy 2024! Hope it goes well for all of you! I hope you all stay safe and healthy.

(Just hope I’m not too late to the Bat party to join in on the fun!)

It’s solar and wind and tidal and geothermal and hydropower.

It’s plant-based diets and regenerative livestock farming and insect protein and lab-grown meat.

It’s electric cars and reliable public transit and decreasing how far and how often we travel.

It’s growing your own vegetables and community gardens and vertical farms and supporting local producers.

It’s rewilding the countryside and greening cities.

It’s getting people active and improving disabled access.

It’s making your own clothes and buying or swapping sustainable stuff with your neighbours.

It’s the right to repair and reducing consumption in the first place.

It’s greater land rights for the commons and indigenous peoples and creating protected areas.

It’s radical, drastic change and community consensus.

It’s labour rights and less work.

It’s science and arts.

It’s theoretical academic thought and concrete practical action.

It’s signing petitions and campaigning and protesting and civil disobedience.

It’s sailboats and zeppelins.

It’s the speculative and the possible.

It’s raising living standards and curbing consumerism.

It’s global and local.

It’s me and you.

Climate solutions look different for everyone, and we all have something to offer.

#solarpunk #hopepunk #tidalpunk #cottagepunk #bright future #climate justice #environmentalism #optimism #social justice #community #solutions #pluralism #I know stuff like EVs and vertical farms get a bad rep #they are certainly overhyped and slight techbro solutions #but I think all avenues are worth exploring even if inevitably some will be less efficacious and just than others #sorry for the long tags lol

Men and masculinity are not inherently bad or untrustworthy things and I don't mean that in a 'misandry is real and a problem' way, I mean that in a 'I think some of you might have contracted minor radfem poisoning' way

#spitblaze says things #its...not normal or good to look at two gay men living their life and go 'EW GROSS MEN BLEGH DISGUSTING'#being fed up with patriarchal structure and a general 'men' is one thing. i get that shit #disgust and disdain at all who (or DON'T but you think they do) identify as such is uh. worth maybe thinking a lil harder about #doin numbers

The leftism/anticapitalism leaving people's bodies the zeptosecond you imply that disabled people who aren't "productive" still matter in society and need to be treated like intrinsic equals who have a place in this world:

#disability #disability advocacy #described images #image description in alt #ableism #ableism tw #my full-time job is my disability and you're lucky that i am still 'productive' as-is #your boss doesn't care that you think you're superior for being hired by them. they're still going to treat you like profit machines #it astounds me how people will capitulate for oppression because they place their intrinsic value in their ability to be at the top...#...or at least 'at the top' compared to others. it's the same impulse that makes people think their cisgender status makes them superior...#...you are placing your worth into systems which not only oppress others but offer you no true sense of worth...#...ESPECIALLY if you're also being exploited (even if just a bit)...#...you have a job sure but... do you actually get treated like a human being? are you actually paid? are you actually safe?...#...if the answer to any of those questions and more is 'no' then why do you place your value in capitalistic production. genuinely.#and why would you DEMAND disabled people to have the same exploitation you experience. why do you DEMAND productivity if you are proletaria #yes being a leftist and anticapitalist are linked but. some people still internalize capitalism without questioning it #being a leftist is about challenging that rather than assuming you're correct i think #also scientists were very silly when describing time that's like. less than a millisecond i think

For as much as I love Paris Is Burning (1990) (It was foundational in my getting into ballroom history and learning more about the ballroom scene in my area when I was in my early 20s), I feel like we barely mention its spiritual sequel How Do I Look (2006) even though it gives a much better look into ballroom and how the popularity of Paris Is Burning affected the scene. It also touches on the issues participants of the og Paris Is Burning doc had with the handling of the og doc and the way the mainstream has been trying to exploit the ballroom scene since the second they found out about what it is. While Paris Is Buring is a deeply important part of our history, it should NOT be your first and last stop when learning about ballroom culture.

#thotty speaks #I'm not getting down in the mud with yall to argue over the importance of the og doc vs a webcomic but I do think its worth looking at thes #older pieces of queer media with a more critical gaze even if they mean a lot to us #black queer history

Brown University students are launching an indefinite hunger strike for Palestine

they are asking for their university to divest from companies profiting from the genocide in gaza and openly call for a ceasefire and will not eat until the university governing bodies hears and considers a divestment resolution. if you are not familiar with the physical toll a hunger strike takes on the body, it might be worth looking up to get a better sense of what a significant action these students are taking. the university's highest governing body is having their first meeting of 2024 on february 8-9th so let's rally around them to muster even more pressure on brown university.

brown university contact page: let's state our support for these students and let brown university know the world will be watching what happens next!

additional reading: coverage of this story in the university's student news paper - get to know some of the hunger strikers

#a lot of hunger strikes are effective simply because it looks really bad if certain people die under your care because you were denying #them something they believed so important that they'd stake their life on it. and i think students who are in care of a school #are very much in a position to hunger strike powerfully.#there are even more articles on the brown daily herald that are worth reading i think shorter posts tend to get more traction but #i might make a follow up later #free palestine #free gaza #brown university hunger strike #hunger strike

this started as a reply to someone (a million years ago) (I am so sorry) and then very quickly got out of control, as these things do. so...uhhh....here's everyone else at Playful Land!

sorry
