🦇🐥 Batman and Robin (2023) #6 rambling and screaming crying throwing up about a single page

so right off the bat, i'm adding these panels to the Ms. Hall is Shush conspiracy board - the first suspect in mind for who could train Zach would be Principal Stone, but Ms. Hall is conveniently placed in the "teacher's pet" panel HMM

Damian's history with Zsasz is mentioned again! any further reference to Streets of Gotham ends here once Damian and Zsasz face off, but i'm not complaining when Damian gets to kick his ass again LOL

AAH SUCH A COOL PANEL!! i rambled enough about Cizmesija's impact shots last time, but this is just. SO COOL... DAMIAN'S POSE, the light streak from the eyes, the jittery effect at the point of impact from Zsasz's front to his back - LIKE DAMN, YOU KNOW THIS KID HIT HIM HARD

ok i was gonna shut up about the impact shots but to accompany the Robin panel, THIS SICK BATMAN PANEL!! THE SPEED LINES ALONG HIS WHOLE ARM, the hilarious waves of that hit going through Zsasz's face asdfg, the cowl and cape silhouette in the back - and the KRAK SFX!! it's got a bit of that gritty splatter effect Cizmesija uses so either another smooth choice by letterer Steve Wands or extra kudos to Cizmesija!!

i thought the action would be my favorite aspect of this issue, but it was THE EXPRESSIONS. from Damian's frustration here (his glare and his seriously gritted teeth) to the page that brought me to my knees lol

a breakdown of my breakdown for this page:

DAMIAN'S WIDE EYED EXPRESSION AT BRUCE'S COMPLIMENT, THE SHINE IN HIS EYES!! what gets me about Bruce’s praise is how specific it is, especially pointing out Damian’s storytelling 😭 Bruce already knows Damian’s technical art skills are amazing!! storytelling through comics is a whole different skill and Bruce recognized that!! 😭 no wonder Damian is so touched, Bruce is paying attention 😭

HE LOOKS SO OVERWHELMED BY THE VALIDATION FROM HIS FATHER - THE TENTATIVE SMILE!! BEFORE HE BREAKS OUT INTO A FULL GRIN!! 😭

HOW HE BURSTS ABOUT HIS PROCESS AND THEN THE LIL ASIDE OF “I love those…” HE'S SO CAUGHT UP IN HIS JOY PLEASE I’M COUGHING UP BLOOD THAT'S SO CUTE 😭 happy Damian is my weakness i mean LOOK AT HIM OH MY GOD the wide smile his lil fist and the pointing, he cannot contain himself!! 😭

his art is so fun, i'm glad we get to see more of this!! the shadow of Bruce and Damian over the pages is a neat touch too! Damian expanding from realistic renders to this manga style on top of these amazing comic layouts…Bruce is right his growth is crazy 😭

to add on to Damian's progress from Bruce's eyes - Detective Comics (2016) #1003 was the last time Bruce acknowledged Damian's art!

the return of Flatline!! for this last bit, i'll be referencing Lazarus Planet: The Next Evolution (2023) since that's Nika's last notable appearance!

Nika calling Damian out on not contacting her asdfg she mentions something similar before, and i could only imagine it's been months since then considering that issue came out a whole year ago 😭

besides Nika meeting Bruce, the most important thing that needs to be addressed is if Damian's aware that she resurrected Ra's and finally, what they could have discussed??

ending note, upgrade from earbuds in Batman and Robin (2011) to headphones haha wired earphones only!!

#rambling #i woke up the next day wondering if i was overreacting about that one page from a sleep deprived haze #i looked at it again and wailed bro CIZMESIJA'S EXPRESSIONS FOR EACH DAMIAN IN THAT PAGE MAKES ME INSANE #regarding Nika the 'oh SO not the end' at the end of that Lazarus Planet story had me on the edge of my seat forever LOL #like what do you mean she's now capable of resurrecting people from literal ashes and Ra's wants to work with her or smth #and then we never learn more asdfgh bring her to Alfred's grave hello?? #if anyone's curious about Nika i'd recc that Lazarus Planet issue! it's nice to hear a bit more of her voice! and how she likes kpop LOL

I do really like Susie’s EN voice but I wonder what it would’ve been like if she’d gotten an accent…. Caladon is vaguely Scottish & she’s literally a Scottish Fold, so I think she could be really cute with a Scottish accent…

#arknights #ramblin on the bus #she could match with bagpipe!!! #quercus could be welsh as well #haze is fine even though she’s realistically british as well. maybe she could have a poor Victorian orphan voice #goldenglow #susie glitter

don't ever change (4x12) is the best episode of house

minimal hate crimes SLASH patient is jewish and i'm jewish so i get to decide where the line is for the hate crimes i will personally accept and for me: it's tolerable.

medical condition makes sense and is not insane. (house md fandom wiki rates this ep as 'zebra factor 1')

i guess i sort of said this in 1, but broadly speaking, just do love it when there's jews. bonus: only orthogonal housonian antisemitism! ('it's fine to be jewish, just not religious about it,' which like. is shitty. but this is hate crimes md and see #1.)

thirteen gets outed. bi pride! #representation

house realizes wilson is dating amber volakis AKA 'cutthroat bitch' and explicitly, with his human words, says "you're dating me!" when he realizes, and then, later, 'you could do worse than dating a female proxy of me' when he's decided to give them his blessing

at the same time, in this episode, house knows... way too much about judaism. like, more than the reform/liberal jews on his team. i think it's taub* (jewish) who describes the prayer the hasidic patient's husband says over her - "he's singing, something about eshet hayil" - and house instantly knows and explains that this is a prayer for a husband to say over his wife, calling her a woman of valor. this is a thing that plenty of jews would not necessarily recognize off the top of their heads! this is something that very few goyim would know off the top of their heads.

this is just one example but he consistently has huge reservoirs of information about jewish stuff that the other jewish characters on the main cast do not know or are not chosen to be the ones to convey to the audience. thus: house knows truly just so much about judaism, and uses about half of it to be an obnoxious jerk.

why does he know all this stuff.

why is he insane and over the top about wilson's judaism in the (previous) christmas episode as well. he takes it more seriously than wilson does. by a significant factor

NOW, TO SYNTHESIZE SEVERAL OF THE ABOVE POINTS INTO A MATHEMATICAL PROOF FOR WHY THIS IS THE BEST EPISODE OF HOUSE:

this is making me insane. like i don't know how to explain this. did he learn this stuff - did he take a conversion class specifically to be able to bully wilson? WHY DOES HE KNOW THIS. WHAT DID HE DO.

i'm normal about it

how is house going to be like "i give you permission to date a lady version of me instead of dating me" while he is clearly advertising what an amazing jewish wife he would make for wilson

it's just a perfect episode.

#*it might not be taub. i watch house on 1.5x while knitting & not looking at the screen and i dont know the new voices super well yet. #as i've said previously: this would not be enjoyable if i weren't in a delirious haze of watching bucketloads of s4 leading up to this #s4 is imo especially and outstandingly awful because of the new fellow competition #one of the few blorbo emotions that is genuinely blorbo-shaped and not filled with hate that i have about greg house md #is that he NEEDS to convert to judaism but that he's been resisting for so long because he doesn't want ppl to think it's to marry in. #okay. back to hating this man with my whole chest. he's evil. #housemd

i saw an abba cover band tonight and honestly most of the performance was spent imagining what im sure is some absolutely insane interpersonal drama

#the performance was. fine the band carried it though #I JUST WORK IN ARTS AND CULTURE AND NOW IM A SNOB. I WORK IN A THEATER AND IN A LIVE MUSIC VENUE SO I HAVE OPINIONS. #their mixing was. strange right at the top one of the singers was clearly not getting enough of her own vocals in her monitor #FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY? HAZE NOTICE?? NOTHING???? #so her voice sounded really strained. which is something they should have fixed in soundcheck. #she slayed at the winner takes it all though ill give her that #this has just turned into me complaining but whatever #one guy on acoustic guitar who was doing The Least #the keys guy was pretty good #the other singer was. fine #the musicians though they really killed it theyre clearly insanely talented #and i just. why abba covers? i mean power to you chase your bliss and all that but they were clearly professionals and Really Fuckin Good #NO PRESHOW ANNOUNCEMENT EITHER. HOW LONG IS THE SHOW? IS THERE AN INTERMISSION? WHERE ARE YOUR EMERGENCY EXITS? #also i was a bit grumpy bc my voice is too low for a lot of abba :( and im not good enough to just. match the key or harmonize on the spot #except for the 'super trouper' bits i can do those #my tags are out of order and i cant fix them. goodnight.

"In dreams I've built myself some kindlier home,

Warm in my heart, and in a golden calm

Where there'll be no more fear and no more storm.

And she will soon forget her schoolhouse ways,

Forget the labour of those weary days,

Wrapped round in kindness like September haze.

The learned at their books have no more store

Of wisdom than we'd close behind our door.

Compared with us, the rich man would be poor."

— From Act 2, Scene 2 of Peter Grimes, an opera by Benjamin Britten, with a libretto adapted by Montagu Slater from a poem by George Crabbe.

#personal #thinking about opera again #and the month of september #the phrase ''september haze'' has always stuck with me #peter grimes #montagu slater #george crabbe #opera #the part that follows this is also something that I love #but it's...sad #so I'm only posting this part #let's think about kindness and september haze today #and not those voices that will not be drowned

i wanted to share something goofy i did!! 💞

this is my welcome home oc, daisy!! she was originally intended to be wally’s partner, but ultimately the show runners decided that giving wally a love interest wasn’t necessary and she was repurposed into different characters. however, she lives on, Somewhere!! as evidenced by this audio recently uncovered somewhere within the playfellow workshop!!! 👁️

i’ve wanted to share daisy for a little while but it always felt so nerve wracking, i hope people enjoy her and want to know lots about her! 💘💞💖💞💘

#because clown asked on his twitter that people specify #none of this is official this is just me fucking around !!! #i don’t think i’ve ever posted my voice on tumblr oh God oh Wow #welcome home #welcome home arg #welcome home oc #welcome home fanart #playfellow workshop #daisy haze #wally darling #julie joyful #frank frankly #barnaby beagle #poppy partridge #sally starlet #eddie dear #howdy pillar #woah …

only way i got through the day was hallucinating megumi beside me the entire time

#IT WAS SO COLD TODAY #wind was blowing so intensely #i kept picturing megumi walking beside me when i was outside n giving me his jacket #everytime i got distracted i could just hear his voice telling me to focus hehe #i should mention it was my first day back after a week of skipping classes cause i was sick #it was all just a haze but i got through it with hallucination megs !! #we did it guys #anyways he accompanied me to every single class #ngl i literally stepped foot in one of my classes and then #my teacher was like safi great you’re here !! we had a test yesterday that u missed btw n u can make it up right. this. instant!! #and i was like um. okay. #internally panicking #but the test seemed pretty easy so i hope it went well #it was super short too like a little quiz #but i was so surprised help #my friends told me about it n i really thought she’d give me a few days to prepare or smth #anyways guess who’s home now hehe > < #gonna eat smth yummy so i stop feeling dizzy and then lay in bed and do some homework #i have so much #megs is nagging me to finish it #if you read my entire rant then ily and if u skimmed it then ilyt #but if you didn’t read a word and skipped to the end then just know that megumi is flicking your forehead really hard rn #꒰ soon you'll get better. ꒱

I probably won’t ever hate a driver

I will hate teams with my whole ass and pussy though

#red bull and ferrari are on my shit list #mclaren and haas are on my HIT list #rank drivers sure wtv imma rank the teams #beloved to behated #williams stake merc am vcarb alpine ferrari red bull haas mclaren #i can’t watch things from red bull or anything red bull affiliated bc i go into a red haze of htred #my spotify tried to psychologically torture me by making me listen to zac brown’s voice

released on bi-joopiter in 1994.

#the big paintings #audio #and a little time shines on you #draws out long tears at the crest of its jubilation #the exalting and tolerant tone as impenetrable in irony as the sunglare haze tearing trees amid the thick of late summer golden hours #light resolving the sublunary distinction to perfect one's grade of spiritualization #the miraculous chance of mundane generativity charged with the imprint of knowledge #the mother's voice at the beginning of poetry is no match for the parry of the angel and the queen

getting that one thing i constantly need will have me thinking fucked up shit like "i want to live" can you even imagine

#not quite directly this phrasing but. ''i want to make music i want to use my voice for work i want to be on a stage '' #''i want to feel fulfilled i want to be happy i want to have my own space i want to be among people one day'' #damn. sappy shit. maybe it's a good thing i don't feel this way normally 🤨 (this is a joke. @god don't you dare take it seriously) #tbh the lack of it makes me feel more despair. but the haze of being wanted blocks it enough to let me feel at least a little bit of hope

tfw you’re just trying to look up some current affairs and end up on a late night wikidive instead

#s. so. haze season has finally returned huh……. i completely forgot it was a thing tbh #can’t believe *the* haze has its own wikipage tbh… of all things to have a page why *that*??????? #and there are even pages for almost every year of haze. like lmaoooooooo who had this much free time to document it hello~~~~??? #but man~~~~~ i hope my bro’s doing aight in this with his military training and all… i hope they’re giving him sufficient water breaks #nah wait he’ll be fine. he’s physically fit. he can survive a workout in the haze… probably. provided it doesn’t get worse. ahaha……. #hm. but. anyways. stay safe and hydrate yourselves if you’re affected by *the* haze. drink water!!!!!!!!! #h e lp wait i forgot about the thank you for the clean air page im c r y i ng #2015’s haze was quite the time though……. i just remembered my then-friends sending a voice mail to our chat group to manifest school closure #and t h e n sending a follow up recorded cheer of ‘nO SCHOOL!!!!!!!’ when school was (indeed) cancelled due to the weather #g o d i haven’t thought about them in a long while… i hope they’re doing fine these days #oops forgor to disable rbs for a bit this app is kinda annoying tbh

after the big showdown with Volo in the modern zoroark possession au, and Unova and the world is saved, and the twins slowly readjust to their normal lives (or as close as they can get to them, for Ingo) Emmet comes up with the idea that Ingo should board the Doubles Line as a challenger. Ingo thinks this is a good idea- it’s been awhile since he’d had a no stakes battle with his brother, but then Emmet hands him the Zoroark mask and he abruptly remembers that his brother had just hired a host of new trainers to work the Lines.

Ingo: ...Emmet, do you want me to haze your employees?

Emmet: Yes. :) Please think of it as part of your court mandated community service. :)

Ingo: I don’t think-

Emmet: It would be verrry fun!

Ingo, of course, caves eventually. Everyone at Gear Station knows that something is up when Emmet arrives to work with a twinkle in his eyes. When Ingo shows up in full Black Fox persona, no one is surprised. The veteran employees just pat the newbies on the shoulder like ‘good luck and godspeed kids’.

#zoroark possession au #but make it modern #emmet #ingo #emmet voice: I cannot have a brother who lead an evil team and NOT use that to haze my employees Ingo #emmet voice: technically Ingo is not banned from Gear Station so this is fine #emmet when he later has Ingo rejoin him so he can occasionally reopen the Multi Lane: I am not technically paying him #so he is not an employee. this is fine #also ingo having to do court mandated community service for his crimes is really funny to me #'you went kind of nuts there. go pick up some trash.' #pearl clan sentenced to community service. gaeric gets into a fight with people littering in lostlorn forest #gaeric sentenced to more community service
