DEAR EDUCATIONALLY NEGLECTED HOMESCHOOLERS
I’ve gathered some resources and tips and tricks on self-educating after educational neglect. This is only what I did and what I know helped me. I’m about to graduate college with honors after having no education past the age of 9. I wouldn’t be here without the following. Everything is free, and at/well above the standard for education in the US.
The holy grail: Khan Academy. Nearly every course you could take is available here, in order and by grade level. Their open-source free courses rival some of the college classes I’ve taken. This is your most solid resource.
For inattentive types: Crash Course offers a variety of courses that are snappy, entertaining, and extremely rewarding. They work for my ADHD brain. They also have college prep advice, which is essential if you’re looking to go to higher education with no classroom experience.
To catch up on your reading: There are certain books that you may have read had you gone to school that you’ve missed out on. This list is the most well-rounded and can fill you in on both children’s books and classic novels that are essential or at least extremely helpful to be familiar with. You can find a majority of these easily at a local library (and some for free in PDF form online low key). There are a few higher level classics in here that I’d highly recommend. If it doesn’t work for you, I’d always recommend asking your local librarian.
*BE AWARE* The book list I recommend suggests you read Harry Potter books, and given their transphobic author you may or may not want to read them. If you choose to, I’d highly recommend buying the books secondhand or borrowing from a library to avoid financially supporting a living author with dangerous and damaging views.
TEST, TEST, TEST: Again, Khan Academy is your go-to for this. I don’t personally like standardized testing, but going through SAT and ACT courses was the best way I found to really reveal my gaps so that I could supplement.
Finally: As much as you can, enjoy the process. Education can be thrilling and teach you so much about yourself, and help shape your view of the world. It can get frustrating, but I’d like to encourage you that everyone can learn. No pace is the perfect pace, and your learning style is the right learning style for you. In teaching yourself, be patient, be kind, and indulge in the subjects you really enjoy without neglecting others. You are your teacher. Give yourself what others chose not to.

The batkids decide to hop on the trend.
Dick, walking as Steph records: We’re vigilantes. Of course we have to be over dramatic.
(Cut to Nightwing back flipping off of Wayne tower)
Tim: were vigilantes. Of course we have issues with caffeine.
(Cut to a video of Tim as Red Robin snoring while hanging from a grappling line. Batman can be seen in the background facepalming.)
———
Damian: No.
Tim: oh come on, Robin, we’re all doing it.
Damian: I refuse to partake in such idiotic videos.
Tim: (while Damian is still behind him) We’re vigilantes. Of course we get to punch people without getting in trouble.
Damian: actually—-
Tim: Robin, you’re supposed to play along—
Damian: I am not going to spread false information—
Steph, interrupting: well, I’m not one of Batman’s sons so he legally can’t yell at me.
Tim: wanna bet?
(Cut to Batman scolding all three of them about the improper use of force)
—-
Duke: we’re vigilantes. Of course we go to Batburger.
(Cut to Duke happily eating a Batburger meal, and playing with a Signal toy)
Duke: what? I’m allowed to have hobbies.
——
Steph: we’re vigilantes. Of course we can scare anyone we want to. Right, Black Bat?
Cass: (nod)
(The next series of videos is a compilation. The first is Superman being scared, followed by Green Lantern, Flash, Cyborg, Starfire, Dick, Tim, and a failed attempt to startle Wonder Woman. Cass isn’t even upset about not being able to scare the woman, she accepts the defeat with grace.)
——-
Dick, Tim, and Steph: we’re vigilantes.
Dick: I’ve gotten stranded on the moon. Don’t ask.
Tim: I got lost in hell.
Steph: I accidentally followed Green Lantern into space.
Tim: what? When?
Steph: turns out if you hug a Green Lantern really tightly, their life support on their ring will support you too
Dick: yknow, Batman shouldn’t find out about this-
(Cut to Batman’s lecture about the proper use of protective gear when going to space)
——
Dick: we’re vigilantes. Of course we’re best friends with all of the villains.
(Cut to Red Hood kicking down a door)
Jason: hey (bleep), you’re late to dinner
Dick: (currently tied to a chair and gagged)
Jason: hang on, I’ll help. (Shoots everyone and unties dick) Harley said she’s going to rampage if you’re not there in five minutes.
Dick: Blame these guys, not me! (Jumps through the nearest window, shattering it, and the sound of a grapple is heard)
——
Jason: I’m a crime lord
Dick: and I’m a vigilante
Jason: and you’re ruining my video, (bleep) off. (Shoves Dick out of the frame, ignoring Dick’s muttered cursing) now that we got the riffraff out, let me start over. (Brushes imaginary dirt from hands) I’m a crime lord. Of course Batman fights me every other day. I look forward to the day I can break his kneecaps.
Dick: (shocked) Hood!
Jason: what?
Dick: he’s your dad too!
Jason: yuck, don’t remind me.
——-
Duke: we’re vigilantes. Of course we know all of the gossip. (Very obviously looking around) like for example, Superman has the biggest crush on Bruce Wayne—
Clark, who was obviously eavesdropping: Nonononononono—- (trying to turn the camera off as he darts into the frame. There’s a flash of red, blue and yellow as Duke and Clark fight over the camera)
——
Tim: we’re vigilantes. Of course we visit other cities.
Wally, as Kid Flash: What the (bleep) are you doing in Central City?
Tim: I’m honestly not sure, it’s so bright that I think I’m blind.

I'm gonna be honest I don't give a flying fuck if every single Palestinian is violently homophobic, which they're not, they still don't deserve to go through genocide. How DARE you try to use queer oppression as a stepping stone for your argument on why ethnic cleansing is a good thing, you make me genuinely sick.
This isn't a 'oh, but there are queer Palestinians!' post, because obviously there are but even if there aren't, PALESTINIANS STILL DON'T DESERVE TO DIE. If you need a reason to oppose genocide then you need to seriously take a step back, look in the mirror, and ask yourself what the fuck is wrong with you.

Are Cheating Clark: this grabbed my brain and won’t let go, but Lois is a very good, badass reporter. She’s been to war zones, and to military camps. Once she realizes what’s going on (because she’s too smart to not figure it out), she sits Clark down and shows him just how much homoerotic subtext/implications there are through history between soldiers/warriors.
“There’s no shame in finding something special with someone who fights along beside you, Clark. Honestly, I expected it sooner. Am I a little upset that your biology didn’t pick me? Yeah, sure. But it’s not anything I can control, or you. I’ll get over it. It just means you’re human after all.”
She puts her hands on her hips and stares down one of the most powerful beings on her planet.
“If you fuck anyone else, though, I will NOT be happy.”
Lois Lane giving her husband the most frightening, overly-detailed hall pass of all time is SO funny to me, even though it's angsty. Like, alright, you get a pass this ONE time because your Kryptonian cells say you need to fuck your best friend! But if your little cells keep saying you need to fuck the rest of your friends, I will carve them out of you with Bruce's Kryptonite :)
Girlbossing and managing her husband's affair, that's absolutely Lois.

I feel like Bruce already takes the blame for so much in the league. He purposefully keeps a lot of it on him because in his eyes Diana and Clark are probably much more important to team cohesion. If something goes wrong on a plan the three of them hammered out? He probably steps up to the plate with some "all me" bullshit.
If the cheating ever comes out? He'd probably be willing to use any anger they already feel at him and his persona to twist everything back in on himself.
If it's ruining the league, if his presence is bad for team cohesion? He might even step down rather than remain. Lock himself down on Gotham, its two fold to ensure the leagues attention remains focused on him and remove himself as a temptation and problem in Clark's life.
Agreed, that feels in character for him. And of course, despite being well-intentioned, it would probably make everything worse.

Okay but the angst of Bruce dying from soul bond not being full filled is delicious. Of course Clarke would Never allow Bruce to die, even if it cost him Lois over this, but if after Lois learns about the cheating and Clarkes chooses Lois, I don't think Bruce would tell Clarke.
I think Bruce would kind of assume it's his fault, and if he can't push through this, which in his mind is his own fault, well, he deserves it. Especially since his kids are mad at him, Dick and Jason are not talking to him. So as the effects grow worse, Bruce never says anything, dealing with it on his. At least, until his heart stops, and Clark suddenly feels Bruce's death like his hear withering and dying. He screams and collapses, in more pain he's ever been in. Maybe if he had been listening to Bruce's heart like he had done for years, had heard it stutter, he could have been fast enough to save Bruce. But he had choosen Lois, completely and totally, even knowing there would be consequences to separating from Bruce.
Alfred (and Dick) knew Bruce was going through it, and Alfred even knew about the soul bond aspect (no one else did) and that his health was failing because of it, but thought he would recover. The idea of Bruce dying from what was basically a broken heart was inconceivable to him. But his son body, despite feeling warm to the touch, is unnaturally still beneath his hands, having taken over CPR on Bruce so Dick could have a break, the ambulance 15 minutes out at best.
How could Clark live with himself after? How does Lois feel, realizing that the soulbond stuff was really really real, that her once friend is dead. And Clark, despite knowing this could happen (but didn't really, it was Bruce. Bruce was always the exception, always the outlier, and all the information they had said it only happened in about half the cases and Bruce couldn't- Bruce Can't be...) never believed, never thought this could happen.
How the guilt must kill every day. And imagine the league and family finding out. Dick, Jason and Alfred would never forgive Clark and Lois. Despite originally being on Lois' side. And Lois, I mean, would she stay or leave in that situation? She has to stay or Bruce died for nothing but she can't stay since Clark will never forgive her for her or himself for Bruce's death (even thought it's not her fault), nor will any one in the caped community see her or Clark the same.
So much angst and whump ♡♡♡
(Ps, as an apology for all this angst you totally write SuperBatLane fluffy smut) (This is a joke) (the apology bit, not the superbatlane stuff. You should definitely write some superbatlane)
Oh wow, that ask is a gut lunch. How about, if I finish the cheating superbat fic, I promise to write some superlanebat smut and call it all even? Everyone’s happy then?

Bruce's relationship to his body and the mission are connected and no one can tell me otherwise. But I think even beyond something to actively complete the mission ie for information, because it's the most effective way to get someone to do something, that's all something he probably weighs and determines a necessity. It doesn't mean anything to him because it's a transaction that he needed to make for the mission and that's what matters. His wants and needs come second.
Everything he does is to complete the mission. (Already incredibly unhealthy) But I also think that he allows people to do things to him (even things he doesn't want to do) for the mission. Because refusing would cause issues down the line. Because Brucie Wayne is supposed to be easy and there's no reason for him to refuse and- etc etc etc. but also because it creates connections, and if his fellows need that connection he can allow them to take it from him. It hardly matters in the long run his own opinions on the matter.
I think Bruce has such an unhealthy view of himself that the idea of him being able to actually offer anything but his body as friendship or even companionship is something that comes second nature, because why would they want that anyways?
(this got a little darker than intended, but I was thinking about a fic I read awhile ago about Bruce and sex and how incredibly unhealthy he kind of seems with it)
Agreed. The mission and the body are so intertwined for him. That’s why being injured is so crippling for him. It’s not just about losing functionality or not being able to complete daily tasks for himself — it’s about not being able to go out on patrol and further the mission. His mind and resolve are still strong, but his body fails him.

Since were discussing Clark, Lois and Bruces … something triangle and infidelity and identity porn, a fun idea ive had for a while is what if Clark knows who Batman is, But Batman thinks Superman is just Kal-El, and Clark thinks “of course Bruce knows who i am he’s always polite at pressers and also He’s Batman”, leading to situation (either fuck or die or just fuck why not) where Bruce doesnt know hes the “other woman”.
Clarks reasoning is always ¯\ _(ツ)_/¯ to me because far more interesting is the fall out of it - does Bruce feel guilty because “Kal is right I should have known”? Does Lois know Bruce is Batman in this situation and assume Bruce also knew or does she confront him about it at work and realize, with slow horror, that he genuinely doesn’t know Superman and her husband are the same person? Do Bruce and Lois team up to deal with the betrayal because they were technically friends first? Has this ask suddenly become a “John Tucker Must Die”-esque polyamorous rom-com?
Idk its a fun flip for me
I love the idea of Lois accidentally giving away Clark’s secret identity in all of this. Not because she was dumb but because she overestimated Bruce’s knowledge of Clark/Superman and Bruce is just standing their blank-faced and Lois is slowly backing away going “oh fuck oh fuck oh FUCK—”

What's your favorite Batman aesthetic? Mine is when the gauntlets have claws. All Bat suits should have claws, lets him scale walls like a cat scales a tree. Don't care if it doesn't make sense and realistically hurt himself more when he punches people. The claws are mandatory. Just make them retractable so he can punch all the criminals but only when he starts punching. The claws stay out.
Amorphous blob Batman is also a good choice.
Tumblr media
Mine is definitely the blank or glowing white eyes, or the cowl lenses that reflect light like a predator animal. It’s so eerie and fear inducing. Even when he and the batkids are playing nice with others, the lenses still remind you of who you’re taking to.
