@bayourouge1 he typically only lives with one at a time, and damien isn't an orphan, he's bruce's own biological son, and his mother is still alive. similarly, only dick is a true acrobat; jason kind of sucks as an acrobat, and tim is only decent. — PolitiTweet.org

as the bat himself says, criminals are "a cowardly and superstitious lot." understanding that he chose his bat persona due to his own fear of bats, we know he's suspicious of his own cowardice — and likely his own superstition, too. rightly so: he lives in a haunted world. — PolitiTweet.org

in each case, it's plausible that the effects used by the villains could be achieved through ordinary chemicals means, but it's also true that the emotions they magnify and distort are meaningful and deep ones, which hint at the possibility of some kind of weird occult magic — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
it's also the case that reality tends to be distorted in batman's universe: poison ivy's infamous aphrodisiac/suggestibility pollen, for example, scarecrow's fear gas, for another, the mad hatter's hypnotism for another. 'real life' comes in and out of focus for batman frequently — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
batman in particular takes place in a gothic universe where it's always sort of halloween -- thus the resonance of classics like, well, The Long Halloween, and the primacy of typically spooky icons: bats, cats, scarecrows, creepy clowns, circus motifs, etc. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
this is obv true BUT also one thing to remember about batman is that the contemporary gritty realism approach in superhero film robs the comics of an essential magic/fantasy element that really makes the whole conceit work — PolitiTweet.org

sometimes it's neither the maga chud nor the shitlib who is directly responsible for the death of a person...sometimes people simply become very elderly and succumb to otherwise survivable infections...admittedly this is rare. most people are immortal and most deaths are murder — PolitiTweet.org

@esaumccaulley This is the other thing, separate from its virtues as a word: it’s so capacious at this point I never know what anyone means by it. We need a big piece just drilling down on its definitional evolution — PolitiTweet.org
