Bruce doesn’t have split personality disorder and Batman isn’t “the real man.” Bruce and Batman are BOTH the ‘real man’ because the ‘real man’ cannot be separated either from the foundations of who he is as a person or the way in which he lives out his beliefs.
Batman does not exist without Bruce’s tragedy and trauma and motivations and morals…and likewise Bruce likely can’t function without engaging in direct action to prevent his own tragedy from happening to others. It really is that simple:
“Our own personal losses drove us to become what we are. We do what we can to save others from what we experienced. That includes everyone in Gotham.”
Anyway…….Murderer?/Fugitive already definitively answered this question:
“I thought that in many ways Bruce Wayne died along with his parents…and the mask I’ve shown the world all these years is the remnant of what that child was before that night. But it’s not true. My codes, the rules I live by–these ideals came from my father…from Thomas Wayne…that’s why I couldn’t let even a killer like Tony Rulyanchik get shot. Because he wouldn’t have either. He believed in the sanctity of all life. I’ve been so blind…all this time. I thought the real Bruce Wayne was that happy child of memory…but now that everything has been stripped away from him, I realize that mask is not Bruce…not at all. I am Bruce Wayne. I always have been.”
“Batman” doesn’t exist without Bruce to drive it. You can’t divorce Bruce from Batman or define one as the “true” self. Batman is what Bruce does but it’s driven and informed by Bruce’s past, trauma, and mindset. Case closed. No more debates. Everyone go home.
There’s a reason my favorite mental image of Batman is him in the Batcave, suited up but with the cowl off so you can see his face. That’s the most honest version of him.
Batman and Billionaire Playboy Bruce Wayne are personas, masks Bruce puts on to get the job done. Both are part of who he is, but both also require him to hide parts of himself; as Batman he can’t be the boy who saw his parents murdered in an alleyway, and as Billionaire Playboy Bruce Wayne he can’t be the brilliant detective fighting crime from the shadows. The real him is somewhere in the middle, and only a select few get to see it.
That image of the man in the cave, surrounded by the work of Batman but with the face of Bruce Wayne, is when we see the real him.
A non-writer asked me "but where do you get your ideas" and i genuinely did not know how to explain that it's not a place. it's not a website. it's not a folder. it's that i was on the bus and a woman was holding a paper bag very carefully and something about the way she held it made me need to know what was inside and then i needed to know why she was sad about it and then there was a whole person and then there was a whole story and the bus had already stopped and i missed my stop. that's where.
Some of my best ideas come when I see something another writer has written and decide I want to take their idea in a completely different direction, and the next thing I know I’m thirty pages deep into a notebook of where exactly my different take would go, complete with themes and characters and maybe even some dialogue.
I hated the ending of The Craft, and wound up writing about a group of aspiring witches who nearly get corrupted by the demon who was posing as their idol/mentor but manage to pull each other back from the darkness with the power of friendship.
I read an MCU isekai fanfic and realized I’d have had the character choose different powers and drawbacks from the list they were given, and created a comedic but loving critique of over-sexualization in comic books and manga starring a bunny girl superhero.
I saw a throwaway joke in a Cinderella retelling and noticed the context of the joke was similar to a plot point in Pride and Prejudice, and came up with a post-story exploration of how the stepsisters are totally unprepared for life outside of gold digging on the marriage mart, and then having to wrestle with their own failures and shortcomings on the rocky road to redemption.
The best stories are the ones that spring out of your own head, drawn out by what’s happening around you.
man sometimes friendship really is just "I saw this and knew it would give you psychic damage. please respond with agony" and then they do. and it's great

Skillet is good because they’re a Christian rock band with lyrics that can be applicable outside of a religious context and aren’t afraid to cover ‘heavy’ topics like depression and crisis in faith and their lead singer sounds like he gargles gravel every day.
Why are people having so much issue with the article, I agreed with it? The title isn’t the most eloquent thing ever but the article wasn’t encouraging cheating, where you go behind your partners back, but instead looking at the issue of cheating as a not black-and-white thing where there’s one horribly evil person who just wanted to have fun/get laid with one traumatized-for-life victim. Instead, like most- nah, let me say with ANYTHING in real life beyond fiction, the article sees the grays in cheating and why the person cheated in the first place. Not to say that cheating isn’t a horrible thing to do, but I feel like people need to understand that there are reasons people do the things they do. People who cheat are human beings. They could feel horrible about it, they could be trapped in a marriage or relationship that they don’t feel they can escape, they can feel insecure and unloved. Again, not to say it’s something you should ever do, but dehumanizing someone over a mistake is just as bad in my opinion. There’s nowhere where they can talk about their experiences, and it’s likely we know a lot of people who have cheated in our lives even if they haven’t (or were too scared) to tell us about it.
I’ve been thinking about Legend of Korra while rewatching Avatar for the umpteenth time, and the conclusion I keep coming to is that I don’t hate Korra the character, I just think she deserved a better show.
Season 1 remains my favorite season of LOK because it had all the setup for a really interesting series. You’ve got a naturally hot-headed main character who’s been trained as a soldier all her life, except there’s no war for her to fight, and fighting would in fact only make things worse. That is an amazing personal journey for Korra to go on; navigating tense social situations and learning how to be a negotiator, having to talk through problems instead of just punching them. The Equalist plotline was the perfect antagonist for a character like Korra, and I was genuinely disappointed when that storyline ended with the first season; it really should’ve been the main conflict of the whole show.
They mention in Season 2 how raising Korra in the compound and bringing teachers to her actually did her a disservice, but the rest of the show never really expands on that, which is a shame, because it could’ve been such an amazing arc to explore.
i think this captures the defining pathology of the collective social media psyche right now. we are in the thrall of people who are wantonly cruel but who also demand to be coddled at all times in every way

Hi, I saw a post on here the other day implying that Russia is pushing/making pro-Palestine propaganda (something along the lines of its surprisingly easy for Tumblr users to fall for Russian propaganda using the pro-Palestine movement as an example). I feel like I've heard this before but nothing concrete, and I'm genuinely curious if you know whether this is happening and to what extent?
These images illustrate how the Soviet Union visually equated Zionism with Nazism and colonialism throughout the 1960s and 70s.
You’ll notice striking similarities between these graphics and the infographics commonly seen on social media today.
This is not coincidence.
Most of the slogans and frameworks used in the "Free Palestine" movement today weren't created by Gen Z activists. They were engineered by the KGB and Soviet Agitprop (Agitation and Propaganda) departments over 50 years ago.
The Great Pivot
In 1948, the USSR actually supported Israel. But when Israel aligned with the West, the Soviets needed a way to turn the "Global South" against them. They launched a massive ideological campaign to rebrand Zionism (the movement for Jewish self-determination) as a form of "white supremacist colonialism."
They created a state-sponsored "science" called Zionology. The goal was simple: make Zionism synonymous with the world’s greatest evils (Nazism, Racism, and Imperialism) so that opposing Israel became a "progressive" moral requirement.
The crowning achievement of this era was the 1975 UN Resolution declaring "Zionism is a form of racism." This wasn't a grassroots human rights initiative; it was a Soviet-led diplomatic hit job.
Though the UN revoked it in 1991, the damage was permanent. It gave activists a "scholarly" and "international" license to treat the Jewish state as uniquely illegitimate. When you see modern infographics using these exact terms, you are seeing the tail-end of a 50-year-old Soviet PR campaign.
And yes, Russia is doing this again (along with Iran and Qatar).
Why Russia is doing it again
A pro-Russian propaganda group is taking advantage of high-profile news events to spread disinformation — and they’re spoofing reputable new

For at least two years, Russia has been running a global disinformation campaign that has targeted Ukrainian, French, German, and Israeli au
Today, Russia (and its modern disinformation machine) uses the Israel-Palestine conflict in the West as a wedge issue. They don't have to invent new lies. They just amplify existing tensions. By flooding platforms like Tumblr or Twitter with high-emotion content, they force Westerners to pick sides and fight each other.
If Russia can make young Americans believe their government is funding a genocide, it weakens domestic support for all Western foreign policy, including support for Ukraine.

It is surprisingly easy to fall for it because this propaganda is designed to look like social justice. It uses the language of liberation to hide its origins in Cold War geopolitics.
When you see a post that frames a 3,000-year-old indigenous connection as settler-colonialism, or equates the Star of David with a Swastika, you're seeing a Soviet turd that's been polished for 21st century "progressives."
