Wtf is casual let’s merge souls 🧡💚

I turn 30 next month so here’s what I learned in my 20s:

—don’t work for startups, they’re always one ‘innovative idea’ away adding ‘sell your kidneys on the black market’ to your job description.

—keeping a collection of basic OTC medicine on you will save your life one day. I recommend Advil, Imodium, and TUMS.

—those little single-use glasses cleaning wipes are 1000% worth the money

—overly self-depreciating jokes just make people uncomfortable, wean yourself off of them

—you can buy dehydrated mini marshmallows in bulk online and they’re a godsend for hot cocoa

—people don’t care if you have fidget toys on your desk they just want to play with them

—try to go to bed BEFORE the existential ennui kicks in

Taking his hubby to work

I'm glad that people are still having fun on tumblr even after we found out about the frightening ghoul that reblogs posts but doesn't say anything

Hear Me Out: Rook as Tim Drake’s new codename

Tim Drake (Robin, Red Robin, & Drake) needs his own codename and prefferably one he won’t share with a burger restuarant…or Batman’s biological son.

From wikipedia:

The rook is a piece in the game of chess. It may move any number of squares horizontally or vertically without jumping, and it may capture an enemy piece on its path; additionally, it may participate in castling. Each player starts the game with two rooks, one in each corner on their own side of the board. Formerly, the rook (from Persian رخ rokh/rukh, meaning chariot) was alternatively called the tower, marquess, rector, and comes (count or earl)…

The rook (Corvus frugilegus) is a member of the family Corvidae in the passerine order of birds… It is a large, gregarious, black-feathered bird, distinguished from similar species by the whitish featherless area on the face…Like other corvids, they are intelligent birds with complex behavioural traits and an ability to solve simple problems… It has black feathers that often show a blue or bluish-purple sheen in bright sunlight. The feathers on the head, neck and shoulders are particularly dense and silky. The legs and feet are generally black, the bill grey-black and the iris dark brown. 

Further thoughts:

The stylised “R” is uniquely Tim Drake’s in my opinion. Taking the name Rook would allow him to keep his “R.” 

Writers could toy with various thematic connections with all of the different meanings and alternatives of Rook, i.e. tower, marguees, rector, comes, chariot, and a very smart bird.

My favorite Tim Drake look is the One Year Later outfit. I love the simple design; the red, yellow, black combo; and the scalloped cape. 

As Rook, I can imagine him dressed in dark blueish-purple with greenish-blue seems and accents. Purple against a black scalloped cape might look cool. A black domino mask would suffice, but I’m also a fan of Gatchaman helmets and pointed nose peices.
