an old picture of my old dog daisy she was a car hop

We won first place for group costume

she never liked to look at the camera

the onion rings were Funyuns and all the other dogs tried to eat it

From Car Hop, Laugh Comics #61 (1954).

a car hop was a member of wait staff at an outdoor restaurant that would come to your window to take and deliver orders. some of them used roller skates. some of them wore skirts. sometimes i think wistfully about these things.

Eat-In car, early drive-in restaurant, Los Angeles, 1935 John Gutmann

From Here Jeanne Lohmann for all that has been, thanks for all that shall be, yes - Dag Hammerskjold, Markings No one who looks back is fit, the gospel says, for the kingdom. Renouncing my small hope of getting in, disqualified by all that turns me round in thanks for grace or chance that led me here, I can't see where's the harm. So far I've not been changed to salt and am no pillar in the road, so far the winter breaks to sounds of streams ahead. The past is iron and roses, health and sickness as in a marriage vow. I'm pledged to all that was, and to this moment's breath, the next.

damian would NEVER tell his big brothers, but he loves it when they pick him up from school.

though damian isn't well-liked, and is a prime target for bullying, everyone knows about the other wayne boys, respectable yet highly intimidating.

so when one of the other batboys shows up to take him home, damian knows that all his onlooking tormentors shake in their boots for a split second, realising that their "what are you going to do?? tell your brothers??" probably wasn't the best taunt to use against him.

skips hundreds of pages to get to the part with bullying Clive >:3

The face of a man that will not know peace for a decade.

mary took dean for his first drive in the impala. he was soooo small but she held him in her lap and let him wrap his little fingers around the wheel and kick at her legs instead of the gas pedal. he laughed and laughed. she thought “hey, maybe i can do this.”

This goes hard

Happy Holiday$. #societythings
