when a british actor does an american accent everyone’s like “i didn’t even know they were british until they were on colbert.” but when americans do a british accent everyone’s like “they’re supposed to be from east cocksford but their glottal e’s are north dicksford. shameful.”

Important to note east cocksford and north dicksford are like three minutes up the road from each other

Does anyone have an update on where things are at with the writers strike? It's disappeared from my various feeds and algorithms.

The writers' strike is ongoing and the studios are still not returning to the negotiating table. Unfortunately a lot of the coverage has tapered off because we're on 50+ days of striking and it's not new anymore. The last strike in 2007 lasted 100 days, so don't be surprised if this strike lasts as long, or even longer.

The biggest recent news is that the Directors' Guild of America (DGA) voted to ratify their new agreement with the studios (article from June 23), and it appears likely that the actors' guild (SAG-AFTRA) will also take a deal instead of striking (article from June 24). Although this is disappointing news, it's completely expected. During previous strikes, the WGA held its own without other unions going on strike. Which is to say—don't be disheartened by the news that there won't be a triple strike. The WGA is strong enough!

Please keep vocally supporting the WGA online to keep the pressure on the studios & to keep WGA members motivated and encouraged! There are many ongoing donation drives, such as the Star Trek fan snack squad (Twitter account required to DM the organizer) and the Our Flag Means Death snack squad (opens the PayPal fundraising page—no Twitter required). There's a longer list of ongoing donation drives here.

The Entertainment Community Fund is also always accepting donations to support entertainment workers affected by the strike. Please boost and encourage your friends to keep supporting the strike. Hashtag #IStandWithTheWGA #DoTheWriteThing to boost the cause!

Dc x Dp Prompt #30

Because of Danny's love for puns and jokes, I believe that he would love various Youtube song/parody makers (ERB, Stupendium, Dan Bull, JT Music, etc.), and he quotes them so often that he drives his friends and family insane because of it.

But I also say that because I picture Danny using that to torture the Joker when he arrives in Gotham.

Joker: *plotting his next big evil deed*

Danny: *hissing and thudding around him invisibly*

Joker: *looks around frantically, thinking it's Batman*

Danny: *running out of the shadows at inhuman speeds* I'm a creeper, minecraft's grim reaper-!

Joker: *unholy screaming from the center of the hideout*

The batfam would be so thrown. Who the fuck is this meta kid who has half of the underground to twitchy? And the Red Robin witnesses one of the events. No one can get him to stop laughing. Hes hit that point where its silent laughter and the fam are CONCERNED. Cause what the fuck Tim? And then he has to explain, that the reason they are terrified? He's just using internet culture to fuck with them. But no one can catch him. Everyone knows if he wanted to he could kill them any time. That's why they are scared.

Tim now has someone he respects more than any other. And that someone was dressed in Sans from Undertale cosplay. T posing, and fucking Bethesda glitching around the Joker while humming a creepy kids song. He just.. He needs a moment.

Also, this is just me being mentally ill, but I HC that “Little Badger” was originally a nickname given to Vlad by his parents (because he already had a lighter streak in his hair) and that’s why he calls Danny that, since it’s only logical that he calls “his son” something that his parents called him and that holds sentimental value for him.

Basically…

Jason doesn’t want to bring Lancer anywhere near his nightlife and Lancer is perfectly fine with that. Lancer manages to convince Jason into some martial arts and combat training to defend his students if need be. It’s pretty concerning how often he has to use said training.

@precarious-hermit

“Babe, can you run that by me again?”

“I used what you taught me in class today-“

“YOU JUDO FLIPPED A GOVERNMENT AGENT!”

Okay but now I can’t stop thinking about WHY Lancer judo flipped a GIW agent

The GIW agent was trying to detain a number of his students for “high levels of ecto contamination.” The fact it seemed to be his entire homeroom class seemed odd, but Lancer had read the anti ecto acts. He knew what they said, and he knew what would happen if his students went with the agent

No one would see them again. Not him, not their parents, no one.

So he acted

Lancer: I don’t think it’s a good idea for me to be here. I’m a wanted man, and I don’t know if I can protect you

Jason, tank of a man, avid gun enthusiast, trained by assasins and Batman: ... I think I’m probably fine

Desperately want a fic where Lancer shows up at his boyfriend’s place with twenty teenagers

Jason: …babe what am I looking at

Lancer: absolutely nothing you never saw us I just need someplace to stash the wiggly ones while I go get supplies. Please forget me, it’s for the best.

Jason: ….’kay, I’m gonna need some answers later, but… “wiggly one’s”…?

Lancer: *hoists Danny up by the scruff of the neck*

Danny: *hisses*

Lancer: wiggly ones.

Jason: ……….kkkkaayyyyy babe changed my mind I’m gonna need that explanation now

Lancer: no, we don’t have time—

Jason: yeah uh-huh no that wasn’t a request

Paulina, in the back: ARE YOU TWO GONNA KISS?? GROSS

Lancer: MISS SANCHEZ FOR THE LOVE OF JANE AUSTIN—

the fact that Lancer keeps trying so avidly to protect Jason is sending me like this man will bring you the heads of the GIW in sacks for Valentines and you will be scared of getting him into trouble for getting a speeding ticket

And then there is Jason who is just, even more smitten. His man just bodied a government worker, committed grand theft auto, kidnapped his own class and is on the run from the law. And he is as much of a book enthusiast. Jason is just, so in love right now.

bully: [punches me]

me: ur gonna regret that when you find out who my dog is

bully: don't you mean dad

[clifford the big red dog shows up and bites off their head]

The new employee is clearly a mimic attempting to fit in. Everyone is aware of this, but the mimic is just so innocent and precious that they just accept them.
