what if. what if the reason Shanks didn't want to go to laugh tale right after Roger's execution is because he had realized that Devil Fruit users couldn't reach Laugh Tale... and he wanted to go TOGETHER with Buggy so he wanted to first figure out a way so he wouldn't get sick when they got there a second time and that's why he wanted to wait. But in the moment he couldn't figure out a way to communicate that clearly without offending Buggy/making him misinterpret it... too bad Buggy drew the worst possible conclusion anyway
What if I cried myself to sleep

"Batman should be a good parent because he's the hero of the story so it makes no sense that he abuses his kids. He's a paragon of justice and so he must also be a good father." - a take I've seen around recently
Have you considered that Bruce isn't supposed to be a perfect person?
He's a hero to the people he helps, he's not a hero in every facet of his life. He's a paragon of justice when a sick and twisted society won't punish criminals because of corruption and bribery, he's not a paragon of justice in the sense that he will always stand for what is right - what's right and wrong strongly depends especially for a 80+ yo character. He's selfless when it comes to his mission because he refuses to have a normal life, and sacrifices his own happiness for the greater good of Gotham and the rest of the world, but he's not selfless in the sense that he will prioritize the well being of his family over everything else.
Bruce is often written as someone who is a control freak, paranoid, domineering, and to be Batman it kind of makes sense that he needs to be. His mission is noble and so are his actions, but he's a flawed human being who will also hurt those who love him, will cross other people's boundaries, will be physically violent and emotionally dry.
Yes he's a good parent sometimes and often he's also a very good person, but to be honest if he was a perfect paragon of righteousness without a single flaw I wouldn't like him nearly as much as I do. He's interesting because he's imperfect, and if I want to read about a character who's the picture of emotional and moral perfection, I pick up a Superman comicbook.

(@lightofunova) Reshi@Aki/Rio: As she left the library, she found herself facing a face from the crowd earlier. It made her freeze for a moment, before she spoke. “I- I apologize if you were affected by my outburst earlier. It was unbecoming of me.” she started off. “I hope there is some way I can make it up to you, I don’t want that to be the only impression of me you have.”
Rio, initially stiff as a board, softens at Reshi as she confided in her. This was definitely not what she was used to. She was expecting a half-hearted gesture to save face to a mortal, saving their sense of dignity. Yet here she was, genuinely apologizing. It was... nice?
"Oh, I-" Rio paused.
For a second, she thought about brushing it off, but Reshi's soft spoken words almost distracted her from the fact that this was a Reshiram. A God of truth. She was going to have to make her next words very... very carefully.
"I was just… REALLY surprised," Rio's lips curled into an awkward smile as she brought her drink to her lips. It was the truth, but by all the Gods above, she was downplaying it.
"You don't have to make it up to me, I--" Rio paused yet again. why is this so much harder than usual? Just tell the truth.
"I would like to know a little more about you. A little reset so that we can work past what happened. If it'd make you more comfortable, I can start."
"I'm Rio."
NOT LIKE THAT!
"UH... I'm going by Aki at the gala because... I'm nervous around all of these legendaries and I feel like hiding under a fake name gives me a protective shield if I accidentally offend somebody...
So, uh... find anyone you fancy here?"

I love all of you dearly, but Terry is definitely getting multiple messages a day from Ron. Like it’s been 25 years since Lark summoned the doodler. So to Ron it’s been daily and he hasn’t seen Terry in 27 years. For Terry it’s probably been like 12ish, and every couple hours he gets a message from Ron. Also Ron is canonically alive when Terry is like in his late teens (?) at the throne of the doodler. Idk time lines are confusing.

Gyns, I’m about to be the TERFiest intern at the hospital.
They’re glow in the dark (and I’ll be removing the charms for surgeries) and funky. I’m considering buying the extra HP jibbitz packs for variety.

Which Landon would make a better President: Alf or Michael?
First of all, I'd like to congratulate you for almost certainly being the first person to ever reference Michael Landon on Tumblr. I'm guessing that two or three generations of my readers had to do a Wikipedia search to figure out who that was.
Anyway, I think the more pertinent question is which Alf would make a better President? Landon or...well...Alf?
I think we all know the correct answer to that question. However, one potential issue might be that the news about President Biden's dog biting Secret Service agents would pale in comparison to the scandal of President Alf eating scores of cats while in office.
And, someone may need to double-check this fact, but I'm pretty sure that Alf has had more Electoral votes cast on his behalf over the years than Alf Landon actually received (8 total Electoral votes) in his landslide defeat to Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1936:
