Batman: Urban Legends (2021 - ) #1

Hi, am thinking about Harley and Ivy gardening and setting up Ivy's greenhouse together because they should be allowed to embrace each other's passions and build each other up and help with the other's plans 💖💖 instead of it being an unnecessary sexist and ooc hurdle

(cough @ P*ul D*ni & Br*ce T*mm cough hahahahhahahhahah)

Cause really, Harley would love doing anything with Ivy and would 1000% count gardening with her as dates. It's daily dates! 💞🥺

She loves everything about her enchanting, plant obsessed lady. Ivy sees cool moss and is like !! Moss!! ❤️❤️ And Harley matches her enthusiasm not cause she loves moss but because she loves Ivy. And Ivy being happy and excited about something inherently is gonna make Harley happy because she loves it when her partners are thriving.

If she can help in that, she jumps at the chance. She may mess up and get distracted, but she loves and listens and notes what little things makes them tick because they're special to her.

Harley Quinn: Make 'em Laugh (2020-) #2 "Housewarming"

Like this!!! More of this!! She knew that the Bonsai tree was something Ivy would want to save if she went there and she knew it was something that would be in better hands in the care of Ivy anyway. And then in the end, even though she wasn't able to obtain the tree because of the guard robot, her snake swallowed a couple of rare seeds and hacked them up on Ivy's floor. A bit gross, sure, but Ivy's delighted!

"These--These are gargantua seeds! Some of the rarest in the world! Stolen from their rightful homes centuries ago, and all but extinct! Genuine man-eating trees! This is better than anything I could have dreamed of! Thank you!"

Lots of exclamation points when you write out the dialogue but skdjsksks like they're just so 💖💞💖💞💖 special to me

Omg and the "My Harls" 💞💞💞

And the loveliest "Garden" trope of them all for Harlivy, the Paradise/Eden/Utopia 💖🤌 my Fucking Beloved,,,, I've posted the bits here 💖 but like these ones ?!?

Batman (2016) #97

"She built this paradise for me in a cave system under the park, after a rough time with Mr. J... I wasn't ready to let go of him then, but he'd poisoned me....

This was kinda sorta my rehab clinic. That's why I wanted to bring you here."

"Ivy's usual rules are No Clothes In Eden, but I don't think you and I have that kind of relationship.

And if any of these plants have her residual personality, they'd probably try harder to eat you.

This is where I used to go with her to get my brain in order. To a point, anyways..."

Like the months they probably spent together throughout the years in Eden, their own secret safe haven, a place that Ivy would take her when she needed to get away from it all. And the way she says "if any of these plants have her residual personality, they'd probably try harder to eat you."

the plants probably reacted to Ivy's emotions whenever they were there before, there together. Just the two of them, nude, vulnerable and completely and utterly alone besides the other, far far beneath the world above.

Just the idea of casual vines, grass and ferns brushing lovingly against Harley's legs and arms as they walk together, a perfectly bloomed flower and it's stem wrapping around her bicep.

The two of them spending each night together in the bud of a rose Ivy grew, entrained and intertwined for warmth and comfort. The two of them gently washing each other's backs in the river, skinny-dipping in the dark and getting lost in the feeling of each other's skin against their own.

Ivy creating this perfect escape for them where they didn't have to worry about anything, money, food, cruel and vindictive ex's.

"Trying to cut my throat open was one thing, but then you come to burn down the only place I still like in this stupid city?" Batman (2016) #98 And if Harley ever did get too cold, if they happened to venture down in the colder months, the No Clothes Rules could always be fudged to mean no Human World clothes. She could craft her clothes just like she makes her own outfits.

But, really, they both enjoy the freedom and intimacy that comes from being fully exposed and naked around each other, the inherent vulnerability and trust.

And Harley always feels okay and loved in her presence, never feels like she needs to cover up her body, because Ivy has and would never make jokes about her body (she's not him.)

And Ivy's affection and sometimes shy nature when it comes to that direct deceleration is always evened out by the connected plants easy nature to show exactly how she's feeling. Like,, If she feels nervous about holding Harley's hand, well she better get on it because those pretty ferns that look purple and blue in the right light will not stop wrapping around her and tickling Harley's palms.

Even in the night, they'll wake up curled together, most of the time in the spooning position, but Harley always has a little visitor or two attempting to warm her alongside Ivy. It makes Ivy flush every time as she wills them away, but Harley loves it and she treasures the fact that Ivy trusts her so much, and loves her so deeply that her connection to the plant life around them is tuned in to the sheer overwhelming emotion she feels towards and about Harley every time she lays eyes on her silly little clown.

Harley wouldn't mention it, but she'd know. She is trained to notice those things 💞

Like, y'all, I am totally a-okay sobs hysterically

i'm always thinking about jake as ice's son btw

#he'd be so stuck between wanting to distance himself from ice #desperate to make a name for himself to prove himself as a pilot all on his own #but at the same time #constantly seeking out ice's approval #trying to learn how to fly like maverick #because ice always told him stories about #'mav the boy wonder - the only one i will ever admit to being better than me' #he'd try so hard to take what he thinks are the good parts of mav (steadfast/risk taking/maybe some of the stubborn assholery too) #and the best parts of ice (precision/the preparedness/maybe the ego too) #and turn it into something he can call his own #jake seresin #tom 'iceman' kazansky

I'm bored so two truths and a lie time - hair edition why the fuck not

Is it strange to do a two truths and a lie about my hair? No idea. I'm gonna do it anyway.

#two truths and a lie #i wanted to do the blandest two truths and a lie ever #like each option is so incredibly boring that it's so hard to figure out what the lie is #but my friend told me that nothing about me is boring #i think their exact words were #that's because yr a weirdo whomst is odd #anyway moving on from that #story time in the tags #earlier today i went to target and i accidentally broke the self checkout machine #just because i requested cash back #that employee was PISSED #not at me but at the machine. you could tell he was sick of the shit always breaking #i said sorry and got mine ass out of there #went and ordered a burger #then called my mom and she bought us tickets to go see an opera #per her brother's orders because i said i'd never seen one and he took that as a personal attack #so now my mom is visiting in a few months so we can go to the opera #she got us reasonably decent seats too #not the best and not the worst

IN THE HEIGHTS countdown: 10 DAYS!

song for today:

ABUELA: remember the story of your name... it was engraved on a passing ship on the day your family came your father said: “usnavi that's what we'll name the baby.” USNAVI: it really said “u.s. navy” but hey... i worked with what they gave me okay...

#song for today: hundreds of stories #ok now everybody shut up and listen #another song that was cut from the movie #remember when i said they changed the lyrics to paciencia y fe? #so in the obc version abuela claudia actually said she was the one who won 96k #and she was wondering what to do with the money #so of course she told usnavi about it and now they are discussing it #i have no idea why they changed it but i like the original version much more because holy fuck #usnavi and abuela claudia have such a sweet relationship #and you can see it in this song #see this is one of the reasons the obc recording is better and in this essay i will- #(also excuse me but the story of usnavi's name is the best thing ever ok???) #it won't be long now* #Spotify

St Voyager The Haunting of Deck 12 is a Tuvok/Neelix Episode.

#Neelix's crush is on full display #Neelix is the embodiment of 'you wanna kiss me so bad it makes you look stupid' I love him. It does. <3 #I also love how he double duped the kids...Neelix is sly!! #told a true horror story to the kids then told them it was fake so they wouldn't be scared then went to the bridge and #pretended to be aghast at the thought of telling kids horror stories! Love him! #Neelix: Did I ever tell you about the Slaxia? / Tuvok: If I say yes will it prevent you from telling the story? / Neelix: No. The Sla- #Neelix: [story about traumatic event which makes him scared of nebulas] / Tuvok: .........Maybe put some curtains up? #Neelix: You're a genius. You're the smartest man alive <3 #Also him being SO clearly scared and then Tuvok 'guessing' that he was scared & Neelix being like 'You know me SO well...!!!' crush. #two best lines are Janeway's 'THEN WE'LL DIE HERE TOGETHER!!!' and Neelix saying he'll drag Tuvok out of there by his pointy lil ears

Adults stop telling kids how much "adulthood sucks" challenge. You might be jealous and nostalgic but you never know which one of those kids *already* has an awful life and can't stand the thought of things getting any worse

Btw, if you are that kid, it doesn't get worse. Adulthood actually gets much better, don't let assholes scare you

#end the idea that kids cant have hard lives please #i was constantly told this growing up and sparing the censorship? it actually made me suicidal #'oh theyre too young to be suicidal/depressed/etc' i know several people who were suicidal at like 8 #i was still being told stuff likd this when i was 13 and older #like 'haha enjoy it while it lasts' and my 13 y/o ass is like 'thanks i will literally kill myself :3' #BUT then it actually got better. i turned 18 moved states away from my abusive parents got some of the healthcare i needed #i was sleeping on friends floors and sicker than ever but it was the best my life had ever been #so yeah i know this is usually meant as just a light hearted joke most of the time #but please consider how that will come across to others #its how i feel when an older person tells me my chronic pain will get worse with age and to 'just wait! hah then youll know real pain' #like thanks i do not think i can take anymore! :') #basically moral of the story is just dont assume that everyone elses lives will go the way yours did

Unfortunately relatable. I grew up in the church and have a lot of Christian trauma from that. I show up for special occasions for my parents… sometimes. But it’s uncomfortable from the moment I step through the door. Bigoted pastor, the self-righteousness disguising the prejudice, the political comments from the altar. Shots at young people left right and center as if the hell on earth wasn’t caused by the same older generation 90% of the congregation belongs to..

I miss being young in the choir and the youth groups and not struggling with it. It’s wild to look back at the younger version of me who was unshakeable in his faith and honestly just saddening.

I was texting my sister today about it and she said

“I 100% think ALL of us have a ton of religious trauma and everyone else in the family just doesn’t realize it cause they’re still drinking the kool-aid.”

I ran out of tag room and didn’t want to delete any 😭 seriously not lying I could write a book about all my thoughts and experiences

#I relate to all of this so much #and it’s so sad how many people truly have religious trauma #I still find myself lucky and privileged cause I know there are stories MUCH worse than mine #it’s really hard cause my parents still think I’m a Christian #honestly at this point I have no clue what i am #even if I end up still being a Christian that doesn’t help or heal all of the years of church trauma #but the hard part is still acting the part for my parents #growing up I always tried to fit into the good Christian girl mold #cause I know that’s what my parents wanted and I didn’t want to disappoint them #but once I started smoking weed and they found out? it went all downhill from there #their perfect angel fell from heaven #and I feel like ever since I haven’t been really their daughter…. I’ve just been living on the outside looking in to everything #it hurts looking back at all the years I spent brainwashed into believing that was the ONLY faith #it genuinely makes me sick to my stomach thinking about the fact that I went to a pro life rally #the thing I was talking to my sister about was how mental health was never talked about in the church #when I started dealing with it and went to my parents or the pastors or any adult really and told them what I was dealing with #wanna know what the first thing they would ALWAYS say? well have you prayed about it? the way they treated mental illness was that it was #YOUR fault cause God is punishing you for something…. that you need to pray or go to church so then God will eventually take it away #and the thing is I don’t necessarily blame my parents (which kinda sucks cause I want to blame someone) #but honestly it’s just the environment they grew up in too… like I’m 99% sure my dad has dealt with depression his entire life #but won’t get diagnosed or anything cause they always believe faith has something to do with it #which makes me incredibly sad cause I just think about how much my dad has suffered and how he didn’t need to #^^ I was typing this out when I was late to my family gathering hahaha but then I think my sister called or something so I had to stop #sorry this post is all over the place - I swear I could write a book about religious trauma #yesterday went ok surprisingly but today? TODAY is going to be so much worse #sure I’ll make a post about it later but I guessssss I should go to bed now? it’s 2am and I have to get up at 5:45 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃 #and I have a fuuuuull day of fun Christian festivities while I’m dealing with all of this bottled up and unresolved crap from my past #please don’t get me wrong I love my parents and like I said I don’t blame them - they did their best #it just really sucks wondering what my life would have been like if I didn’t grow up in the church or in a super religious family #I wonder if when I told my parents I was depressed if they would have instantly brought me in to get help

JVKE’s this is what ___ feels like album has me feeling some sort of way

#I'm usually not one to get into more modern artists. BUT. #Holy shit.........his music makes me feel shit. Like FEEL it really feel it #It's genius actually. A story told on 4 parts. Connected through other songs. The stages of falling in and out of love #It's heartbreaking. It's fucking heartbreaking actually #The fact that this is what heartbreak feels like comes RIGHT after golden hour?? Shut up. Shut UP THAT HURTS ME #golden hour is deadass the most gorgeous song I've ever heard in my fucking life I can't even express the emotions I feel listening to it #It's beautiful. It's whimsical. It's magical. It captures such a specific feeling and time of day. Time of YEAR even #It's a song about love and how in awe he is of the person he loves and it's perfect and soft and. golden hour. Yeah. That's it. #And then. THEN WE FUCKING GET TO THE NEXT SONG AND IT'S LIKE #All that buildup of what falling in love is like.....what it's like to be in love to love someone to treasure them to feel FEEL for them #And then we get hit with betrayal. It's bitter. It hurts. And you can feel that in the song too #Ugh ugh UGH how does he do it. The whole album is a story from start to finish and it makes me want to cry #Falling in love...heartbreak...sadness...and then. #Acceptance. Moving on. Falling in love with someone new. AHGHH #It really reminds me of The Last Five Years bc that has the same sort of concept #A story of love told through song. Falling in love to falling out of love... #LOVE HURTS!! THIS ALBUM HURTS ME IN ALL THE BEST WAYS. #Shima speaks #Anyway go listen to this is what ___ feels like right now. Do it

when i was 14 i had a crush on the same guy as my best friend, whom we were both very good friends with, and i never made my crush known (despite the fact that it was obvious) because she was more charismatic and better at getting him to agree to things than i was. anyways, one day after school we went on like a three-way date (we said it was a friend thing but we both obviously wanted to date him) to a mini golf course and then back to my house where she did makeup on him and i recorded the whole thing and put it on youtube (the videos are private) and everytime i watch them i just feel this aching nostalgia where i wish i had just spoken up and said i liked him too.

i guess it doesn't really matter bc in the end, we had a weird falling out and he ended up with neither of us and we don't talk to him anymore but i still always wonder how he's doing!! he was a weird fucking kid but he was a good friend and i liked him a lot 🤷‍♀️

#he got nosebleeds super easily and he always wore hoodies with nothing underneath to school (LOL?) and we used to race to lunch like 6 y/os #this other kid i had a crush on that year after i got over my crush on him (mostly) was in the same class with us and commented on how we #'acted like a couple' and both of us were liie vehemently denying it but idk. he's also the only man i've ever hugged outside my family #it's all just kind of bittersweet when i look back at it... i was 14 and i didn't know how to be a better friend to either of them #i essentially caused the falling out bc i told my best friend that i also liked him and then she told him and. yeah. it was stupid #it all came to a head at the only dance i ever attended in high school where lana del rey was playing and he messaged us on KIK saying #that he was gonna kill himself and i fake threw up in a trash can JDHDUDIDJND IT WAS ALL VERY MELODRAMATIC AND HIGH SCHOOL... #but anyways like i said i just kinda wish i had told him but it is what it is. i had like 4 crushes freshman year so it's not like it was #that important but yeah. i just rewatched one of those videos and it got me thinking of that time. my relationshio with my best friend #is much more fraught than you would believe from this story lol

love having to write a research proposal for my research planning class where my professor gave me such wonderful feedback as repeating the same thing three separate times (it was about how broken and interrupted terminology makes reading hard... wonder how that works buddy) and telling me to explain the terminology... that I did explain... using terms that if the idea is any reviewer should be able to look at, they should be able to know. Like, how is an equation with an integral and 4 different vectors in it going to clarify the point more than explaining exactly what it is in text. Really. I want to know, especially considering this man is the least qualified undergraduate-only institution professor I've ever met. Very passionate about teaching, can't teach or mentor any students at his institutions. what the hell

#rants #physics #ahhhhhhhhhhhh #the dept chair told me my 2 page research proposal for the same topic was one of the best he'd ever read #but I feel like I'm being babied on 8 different levels to write this and it's so inane #and ofc he got tenure before the issues started popping up because all of the professors in the department have beef with him #like what an abuse of power it is to force the students who have no options other than riding back with you from a conference to go on a TW #MILE HIKE because your wife and kids are at a state park on the way back #and I just know that if any of the department's disabled students had been in his car #he would've been like “okay you need to switch cars” which is just #NOT THE SOLUTION BUDDY #YOU SHOULDN'T BE DOING THAT #PERIOD END OF STORY

the way u write about rei and touya is just :( so heartbreaking and tender and GOD it just. buries myself into pillow. it makes me so soft

wow, thank you !! 🥺💕 i just have so many thoughts about them like sjfhwjwbq all my own perceptions on their relationship and what-not. i think that's his mama at the end of the day 🥺 and he'll always be vulnerable to her ?? which is why he's never sought her out, bc he knows he'd fall right away. sometimes i think about all his motives and stuff to go after endeavor — and he has plenty LOL don't get me wrong — but i imagine him like a little boy still, trying to protect his mom 🥺 and now he's a grown man with the ability and he'll never not see her like that ?? and another thing is like, the whole quirk marriage and rei's purpose to produce these kids for this powerful man; and touya was her first little bundle 🥺 his first little love 🥺 amfbeiehakqn i'm actually about to cry let me SHUT UP LOL

#i just have so many thoughts i could write an essay #i once read a story about a woman forced into a marriage and her firstborn was like her everything #her best friend. the only one she had in that time. someone that was her husband — but was a little her too. someone she created #and idk i think that about rei and touya a lot #like i'm sure there was such a weird discomfort around it but idk i like to think he was born and she was happy to have him #her lil baby 🥺 #and god rei is such an integral part to how touya views women i think #in both a good and bad way #especially bc he's so young when everything happens #so he's sixteen and alone and only has ever known his mom and sister #his perceptions of women are built on them and it's like ajfbeuwnaodgak #i could talk forever about them #another more personal thing is like from my mom and my brother too ?? #like my brother is older so at one point it was just him and my mom before me #and she once told me that she was doing it all herself and just felt like. with her and her little boy she could take on the world #and it would be okay as long as they were together #and i think that about touya and rei too #ANYWAY I GOTTA GO BACK TO WORK #✿ ask willow #✿ thoughts: dabi/touya

"Suppalo doesn't do anything that a normal school wouldn't do " um yes?? Normal schools are horribly oppressive and control-oriented. They are designed to make kids think things that are not important carry this insane weight. Manufactured intensity is like their whole deal.

There are many many sources of oppression and control present in our lives, all of the time. If you can't question them enough that you think The Eclipse is a bad show because the mind control and strict rule aspect isn't dramatic enough... perhaps you need to watch The Eclipse. Idk.

#the Eclipse #dude some estimates say 32% of teens have medical-grade anxiety #schools are one of the places where you get locked in for hours every day #they create their own little universe in there and convince students that their lives are ending over late homework and skipping a day #it IS actually horrible damaging and effects people way longer than they think #the eclipse is suggesting that this is perhaps not as acceptable as you seem to think #perhaps this is an idea you might consider entertaining #I do not think we need more examples or more intensity in the examples of authoritarianism or abuse from Suppalo #personally I think keeping it light and less culty means that we have less of an opportunity to say 'this is about someone else' #it's about you and your kids and your past and your future #its abt how my manager at SUBWAY told a woma she couldn't say goodbye one final time to her best friend of 40 years bc we'd be shortstaffed #its about how I nearly killed myself overworking and stressed for WALMART #when there could never under any circumstances be anything important happening there ever #it's about church telling you not to think wrong thoughts or your coach destroying your self-esteem to make you Really Want It #as much as it's about government and north korean style totalitarianism and ideological divides and whatever #they chose this tiny stage to tell their big story On Purpose #and for me the effect is good #because I did some amount of the thinking on my own :)
