You know what’s something that we kind of lost since the first generation of sidekicks turned heroes are kids who grew up in the hero industry. Dick Grayson has been parading around the Justice League since he was a little kid. Those adults know him incredibly well, watched him grow up, are honorary aunts and uncles. The other gen one Teen Titans are to a lesser extent but many of them didn’t come onto the scene until they were teens.
Most of the batkids joined as young teens/adults and quickly integrated into the big leagues as equals but come on. I’ve always felt Jon just ~magically~ appearing at what? 11 years old was so boring. Its DC just fucking retcon him in. Yeah Lois had him a decade ago and he’s been here the whole time. He’s the sweet but slightly spoiled League baby which would be an interesting contrast to Dami coming in at 13 having only heard of but not grown up with his father.
I’m tired and not articulating well but so many of these kid/teen sidekicks kind of come in and jump right into superheroics and its like... part of the appeal of DC is the family aspect. I want to see more kids of heroes being present from day one and growing up in the League and not just, appearing when they’re suddenly old enough to put on a costume and fight. The whole idea of legacies only works if you put work into watching it grow.

hearing anything abt israel really makes me wanna go crazy :/ you've got endless footage of them proudly recording their own crimes for each other's entertainment (with them at most being like "maybe we shouldn't share it... we might get in trouble..."), and then here in the west the people in charge are comfortable enough to just flat out ignore all the people here and blame the victims there, and It's so....

I would post this to r*ddit, but those people scare the hell out of me, and you're all my close personal friends anyway. But I just want to say that I am so grateful for dbd and so happy that I play it. I often think a lot about the domino effect that allowed me to find this game, all starting with watching a silly Irish man make all the wrong decisions in until dawn.
But when I first got into the game, I was in a bad place. I had just watched two important friendships crumble in my hands and had my current Thing I Was Obsessed With ripped away from me (kind of like the thing before that). And dbd filled that void, both with its lore and with it's gameplay. And a secret third thing: it got me so into horror.
I had flirted with horror before, but I was too scared to fully commit to the genre. But now? I've been watching classic horror movies. I watched alien the other night for the first time. I'm slowly chipping away at slasher movies. I literally also became obsessed with one of the most iconic survival horror game series all because of one of the many licensed chapters.
Idk. I was just thinking about it recently ever since I watched alien. Like I would probably never have seen that movie if it wasn't for dbd bc I would have been too scared. And even after a year and a half, I still enjoy the game so much. It's been so neat learning new things and seeing myself improve. I love the community (well, most of it) and many of the content creators that are just as passionate as I am about this game. It's just really really neat to me.
Idk. I just feel a certain way about the game tonight. I'm very happy with it and I love it a lot.
