Here’s One Good Thing To Come Out Of 2020:

Here’s one good thing to come out of 2020:

Paleontologists completed a life-sized replica of Sue, the most complete T. Rex ever found.

And she is freaking GORGEOUS!

As I read more about this beauty, I found out some new details regarding things I thought I previously knew about the beast that was Tyrannosaurus Rex, and I’m going to share them with you.

First, and most obvious, her size:

Here’s One Good Thing To Come Out Of 2020:

This is nothing new, we all figured T. Rex was big, but I for one never stopped to consider exactly how big it was. Nobody ever really knows what to imagine when they read about something the size of a whale that walked around and ate everything it could kill. 

Speaking of eating things, I just want to remind you all that T. Rex had–by miles–the strongest bite of any terrestrial animal living or dead, somewhere around six and a half tons of force. That’s over six times greater than the current estimate of what Allosaurus was capable of, and three times what was delivered by the highest measured reading of the living title holder–the estuarine crocodile. It didn’t have to waste time swinging its head open-mouthed like Saurophaganax for a little extra oomph, or grow fancy serrated teeth like Carcharodontosaurus to cut pieces out of its prey. It opted for the simplest approach: get its mouth around something and crush it to death; imagine the full weight of an elephant on whatever was between this thing’s jaws.

“How did it find something to eat?” I hear you asking. “It can’t see something if it doesn’t move, right?”

Listen, I love Jurassic Park too, but that’s a big crock of shit.

Here’s One Good Thing To Come Out Of 2020:

Notice how both her eyes face forward. That gives her binocular vision (the ability to focus both eyes on one target, like you and I). More importantly it means she has impeccable depth perception due to overlapping fields of vision from each, large, eyeball. Researchers agree that T. Rex not only had incredible vision, but that it was probably better than most modern animals–including eagles, hawks, and owls–and that she could likely spot something three and a half miles away. If something that big can see that well, it doesn’t matter if you move or not, she’d be able to tell if it was an animal trying to hide or a piece of vegetation. So pray she isn’t hungry if she lays eyes on you. And even if by some miracle she didn’t see you, she’d still smell you. 

If she decided you looked tasty, you probably wouldn’t hear her coming as much as you’d feel her. Modern science indicates that T. Rex didn’t roar like in Jurassic Park, but rather bellowed or maybe even hissed like crocodilians. If she were on to you, you’d most likely feel this sense of unease creep up your spine as a low-pitched rumble in the air permeated through you. You wouldn’t know what it was or where it was coming from until you hear her footfalls. By then it’s too late–you could try to run but she’d probably catch you. There’s plenty on YouTube that reconstructs what T. Rex may have sounded like, and it’s legitimately haunting.  

To wrap all of this up, the one bit of good that came out of the cursed year that is 2020 is that this wonderful child of science and art came into the world, and reaffirmed my respect and admiration for the eight ton slab of muscle and teeth that is this magnificent creature.

Here’s One Good Thing To Come Out Of 2020:

…and it is nothing if not magnificent.

I feel like Arthur would be a really good father

- he has experience in caring for another person because of Penny. He seemed to be gentle with her, and even when he got upset after finding out Wayne might be his father, he quickly managed to calm himself down. That’s something that would be really useful when parenting

- he said “they were just kids” after a group of young people attacked him and left massive bruises on his back. He understands young people are immature and do stupid things, and he didn’t seem to hold a grudge. All kids will hurt their parents at some point, its inevitable, but it’s important that the parent can forgive it and guide their way. I think Arthur would be capable of doing that

- he seems to like kids and he’s really good at entertaining them. The way he made the kid on the bus laugh, his little magic performance for Bruce and the “if you’re happy if you know it...” performance at a children’s hospital prove that

- although Gary isn’t a child, I still felt like Arthur’s (wicked) gentleness towards him was a little bit parental. The way he jump scared him just for giggles’ sake made me think that he’d love pranking his kid once they’re a teenager

- I also noticed he let go of Alfred at the gate once he saw Bruce was watching. This combined with the earlier mentioned “they were just kids” made me think that he has strong morals when it comes to kids? Idk how to explain

- one of the major things he’s upset about is how people lack empathy and are assholes to one another. That’s why I feel like it’d be important for him to raise a kind child and teach them the importance of helping others

Feel free to add more!

Request For @jibanyyan

Warnings: I’ll note that there is mentions of Torrettes and murder

Notes: I wasn’t sure what you wanted, but right now I’m having to go back to HC’s just because I’m having a hard time at the moment to I apoligise...I have a family member dying and have had a rough week. I apologise this isn’t the best

~

- The world was a cruel cold place. That’s the perspective you had viewed it since you were an innocent child

- Thinking you had nobody else in the world who could understand you; that was until you met him.

- Arthur; sweet soft spoken Arthur. He was the light of your life, always there for you and you were always there for him

- Your condition wasn’t socially known nor accepted by those you came across, but you did understand that it was very intimidating for the world around you, hence the reason for your isolated living

- Arthur understood your outbursts which was caused by Tourette’s; in no way whatsoever was this your fault and he knew it, he could relate. God if anyone could it was Arthur Fleck.

- The man would seem to have your pattern solved; helping you through your attacks as you helped him. You assisted each other through the walk of life.

- Of course he had his own struggles; Arthur’s Pseudobulbar affect, almost a daily issue. But after such rough draining days he comes home and you lay in each other’s arms comforting one another

- When joker comes out, that’s when the coin completely flips- if someone bullies you, looks at you the wrong way or even lays a hand on you, he’ll make sure to teach them a good hard lesson

- Joker will stick up for you in every way possible even if it leads to some blood being spilt, he won’t care one bit

- When you are feeling self conscious about yourself, or the way you are, and the way your condition affects you he’ll make the effort in to make sure you feel good, ravish you wildly and take you where you stand

Why is all of this breaking my heart my feelimgs are leaking

Arthur Fleck's Arkham Document From Joker (2019)

Arthur Fleck's Arkham Document from Joker (2019)

Honestly tried to sharpen it up a bit so it's readable, but doctors handwritings are the absolute worst.

What I got from this (left to right):

Arthur only made it to 10th grade. (Or lower)

He has never been married and has no kids. (We know this)

He's somewhere around in his early 30's. Probably 33-34 years old.

There was indeed only 1 bedroom in the apartment he stayed in with Penny, which could only mean he slept on the couch the entire time. (As some of us already suspected)

The physician doesn't even know where the hell to begin with Arthur's state, so it's written, "Laughing all the time. I don't know happy or what."

Arthur WORKS HIS ASS OFF to provide for himself and Penny as seen where it's checked off by 49-59 hours for working in the past week. (The average working hours per week is 40 hours. At least where I'm from)

The physician then wrote, "I wish I did know" but I'm not sure for which of the questions.

Then where the 'yes' is checked off for if Arthur has a permanent disability, the physical drew a little arrow where he/she then wrote, "I really don't understand."

BATMAN VILLIANS - Where Do They Like Being Kissed?

Ft. Deathstroke, Harley Quinn, Black Mask, Penguin, & Joker

BATMAN VILLIANS - Where Do They Like Being Kissed?

DEATHSTROKE

He’s a very private man, so he’s not the biggest fan of affection, but he’s not going to deny your love for him either.

But knowing that it’s just you and him alone together, he’ll let you kiss wherever you like, just go easy on the eye.

Praise this man. He won’t show it, but he truly does appreciate the way you show your affection to him.

Just simple cuddles go a long way with him.

BATMAN VILLIANS - Where Do They Like Being Kissed?

HARLEY QUINN

Please give her multiple kisses on the cheek! She’ll become weak from all the love you’re giving her~~!

She’ll say that its too cheesy for her liking. Don’t stop though

Harley is a very touched staved person, so even the slightest of small affection will have her over the moon.

Love and chrish this woman, please and thank you!

BATMAN VILLIANS - Where Do They Like Being Kissed?

BLACK MASK

Without the mask, he’s all about deep french kisses, tongue and all. No matter what setting your both in.

If he’s got the mask on, then some kisses on the neck wouldn’t hurt. None of those small pecks, you need to go all out. Sloppy kisses and occasional biting are what it’s all about it for him.

If he doesn’t have a small hickey on his neck then you’re doing it wrong

Kiss the top of his hand. It’s a matter of respect and power to him. Especially when in front of his business partners.

BATMAN VILLIANS - Where Do They Like Being Kissed?

OSWALD COBBLEPOT

Also kiss his hand. Again, respect and power. Maybe give some light pecks on each brass ring he has on

You don’t have to go full out for him. He’s not the most affectionate person nor will he pressure you into being affectionate with him.

Just pamper him with light massages on his shoulders and occasional kisses on the cheek, and you’re all good.

BATMAN VILLIANS - Where Do They Like Being Kissed?

JOKER

He won’t deny your kisses for him.

When he’s feeling a little frisky, he’ll accept any kisses you have for him. Full on lips, a little tongue action, butterfly kisses on his neck or chest.

A simple one on the cheek will drive him wild for you.

You can smooch him up all you want, just don’t expect him to do the same...
