any time i copy paste a message to send to 2 different chats i feel like such a fake ass bitch but im choosing to look at it as the digital equivalent of standing in a doorway hollering so people in both rooms can hear me

the most dangerous thing in the world is a man with nothing left to lose. [thinking] or maybe something to lose. maybe a lot of things to lose? [furrowing brow] or a spider. a really big spider with... poison teeth. [exceedingly pleased with myself] the most dangerous thing in the world is a big ass spider with poisonous fangs

or maybe a nuclear bomb.

[nodding sagely] or a tiger

what about a venomous tigert

😨

Lois buys Clark a "Not to say I'm Superman but Superman and I have never been seen together in the same room" shirt because it's the funniest thing she's ever seen and Clark wears it because it's also the funniest thing he's ever seen. They are made for each other.

Bruce Wayne once got called to jury duty and said he shouldn't be on the jury because he was Batman and had caught the guy going to trial. He couldn't lie about who he was, he was under oath! Bruce would think this was hilarious.

i must say, i am a huge fan of when a book is in the middle of a very exciting plot containing many interesting problems when out of nowhere for a few pages it's like, "hey by the way, real quick, here's a detailed explanation of the city's water filtration system! i'm telling you this for a reason and you should worry about it. anyway! haha okay back to the plot" and you just get to be Scared for a while

A very similar experience that one can get from reading some scifi hard specifically is the narration suddenly taking a break from a completely normal scene to Teach You Some Fundamental Concepts of Astrophysics/Cosmology for like 1-2 full pages then back to the action because the narration would have become incomprehensible to a layman if they hadn't given you this oddly timed crash course.

i am like the breadloser of the family

the horrors persist but so do books, art, hot chocolate, winter nights, the moon, the sea, the stars, sunsets, literature, libraries, cats, flowers, stories, love and the wistful feeling you get when you finally return home
