I LOVE SWEATERS

I AM SO LUCKY TO HAVE SWEATERS

WHEN IT IS COLD I CAN BE WARM

I CAN WEAR THREE SWEATERS

I CAN WEAR FOUR SWEATERS

I CAN WEAR ALL THE SWEATERS

THEY ARE PRETTY

SSSSSSSSSSSWEATERZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

right

like i am home

i luh

-the warmth and reliability of the pockets in the front, makin me feel like a kanga mama containing and protecting food, pens, and various self-reminders
-being able to keep my hands in there when being awkward
-the way the hood warms my head and incubates my brain
-how i can sleep wherever i want whenever i want by pulling the hood down over my eyeballz
-the way i can pull the stretchy material over my knees and curl my legs up inside it like a hoodie-fetus
-the way the insides are usually so soft so whenever i have cuts they feel all soothed with the fluffy goodness
-the way my favourite hoodie is from my bff and she gave it to me because of a really poopy night but also a great night at the same time
-the word “hoodie” is just so cute and like a cute name like “hey Hoodie”

hoodies are like fabric hugs for your whole body and heart

EMPHASIS ON THE “N”

I’LL NEVER LOVE YOU THE SAME WAY I LOVED DCU.  NEVER!

i want to not feel this way

so we’ll see how things go

but…..

i will probably just feel this way.

i mean come on. i will never get over “Robins are interns.”

is a weird thing to say

like i understand the kindness of the sentiment and that it’s well-intentioned but i mean

it’s like youre being commanded to FEEL BETTER by some kind of Feelings Lord. like if you dont, things will just get worse for you. it’s a threat. “feel better……or feel worse. you decide, filthy peasant.”

do u think it would still be as poetic as it is now being in poems and art and all that??? or would people’s butts just be a lot more poetic because they looked like the moon? i mean butts are pretty artistic now too right??? would “mooning” become an art of elegance…because of the moon?? or would the study of moon phases and astronomy become a taboo topic??????? would Uranus get jealous???

Honestly, I think it makes his history more fascinating, since it makes me wonder what made him want to do that to himself.

I think it gives joker a more primal aspect that fits with his character in the movie. I see him using it like war paint, for intimidation.

thanks for responding, you guys! umbvix, that’s a very interesting answer, because it’s clear in the comics that the Joker isn’t necessarily mentally “insane”, but there is something very very different about his brain, as he is supposed to be this agent of “pure chaos”, yet has this underlying calculation to the point of precision in his motives (or so we think. this is also discussed in Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth, when the psychiatrist says she believes the Joker’s brain works on a higher plane than the rest of us). so when i consider the fact that this guy who just loves destruction and random violence, at some point in his day or week, sits down and applies this make-up and goes to the shop to get green dye, it changes the character radically. it really makes me wonder what Nolan and the writers/costumers/movie team were trying to convey. loulovescomics, that’s a cool point. the intimidation stems from the fact that he just APPEARS STRANGE, but like much of him (which Batman frequently thinks in the books), it’s just a facade. but then the Joker goes and does something REALLY messed up, and Batman is left to reconsider his position, hah.

seriously, thanks guys!

i know Heath Ledger’s portrayal has become almost legendary, pulling in tons of new Batman fans who’ve never read any of the books and going above and beyond the expectations of those who have. however, there is one thing that i have always wondered about, and that is the make-up.

in almost every origin story of the Joker, there is an unnatural reason that permanently scars the Joker, turning his skin white/hair green/lips red/etc. in the film he’s obviously dyed his hair, painted his lips, and made up his face, thus getting rid of said origin stories (eg. his falling into a vat of acid). how do you feel about this clear diversion from the “natural” comic origins into something the Joker does deliberately? does this add to the “edgy, realistic” feel of the film, or does it detract from the Joker’s history???

i just

i don’t understand

give me a choice in this man. give me the option to listen to your music. don’t just surprise attack my ears like a bloody Tumblr Trojan horse! i didn’t hurt your family!

that if they had a ton of money, they would travel the world and go sight-seeing. really?? really??? you’d go around looking at the world when vast amounts of the people in it can barely survive in it!?

howbout taking the money to go to one place in the world where you can focus your attentions on improving one aspect of the lives therein??? perhaps building houses there or aiding in sex education?? or even just donating it to foundations you can trust (i.e. Engineers without Borders is one of the best these days. the majority of their funds ACTUALLY GO TO THE CAUSE instead of supporting the CEOs and big heads behind it.)

i cannot stand this idea of living the dream of seeing the world and living lavishly while sightseeing abroad and enjoying little “tastes of every culture” because this somehow makes you WORLDLY. the real actual taste of a culture is to know the plight of the people who suffer within it. if you want to be worldly, do something for the world.  don’t just go and look at some camels in a desert and be like “shit, this is the life man. beeeeautiful.” yeah its beautiful, definitely. but that’s not the point of world love or compassion or broadening your horizons or whatever you want to call it. those trips are just selfishly motivated; a real life-changing trip is one you make to really change people’s lives

damn, am i being COMPLETELY condescending??? i mean, i know i am. but i think this is true. one day ill be able to practice what i take forever to preach, but for those of you with the resources (or who want to earn the resources), thats my advice

***a few points added after my good friend challenged me to a brain duel:

—> im of the opinion that no act, not even an act of kindness, is altruistic. i believe that all behaviour is, to some degree, selfishly motivated. this is why it doesn’t bother me if a rich dude is annoyed when he donates out of obligation rather than out of wanting to do it. the motivation, to be honest, does not matter—all that matters to me is that people who need money and food get money and food. yes, the rich will grumble and groan, but ultimately the world will be better for it.
—> i feel that this mentality of self-actualization through lavish spending and world-seeing is pretty exclusive to the Western world because we are such an individualistic culture. if we were more community-focused, such as places like Asia, i dont think this would be such a rampant mindset. this is the mentality of the privileged. i think everybody deserves to have the chance for some degree of self-actualization, which is why the “upper class” should do as much as they possibly can to aid the “lower classes” (and i am speaking on a purely financial level) with this right.
—> im not morally against vacations! i just feel that the first priority should be to do as much as you possibly can with your disposable income to aid people who don’t even have an income, let alone some “disposable” cash. the whole idea of cash being “disposable” is ridiculous when our entire world is structured around it. of course you can have a break in Hawaii, why not??? but like i initially said, lavish world trips or basically any ridiculous spending (i.e. a $200 garment) is just morally UNACCEPTABLE and UNBELIEVABLE.

ill link you folks to a great article that says everything far better than i ever could, and sums up why i think the way i do (if the numerous examples of poverty and effedupness in the world didn’t seal it for me anyhow). ill preface it by saying that it starts out with some seemingly ridiculous examples, but trust me when i say it gets its shizz together yo. dont worry, just read:
