Beware the so-called "Gender Unity Project." They're a front for Matt Walsh and Justin Folk, known-quantity shitwagons, to try and trick people into taking part in an anti-trans "documentary" with it.

"The smash online word game Wordle has been bought by The New York Times, which will integrate the daily word puzzle into The New York Times Games suite of word games, creator Josh Wardle announced today.

Wordle will “initially remain free to new and existing players” once it moves over to the Times’ site, and Wardle says that he’s working with The New York Times to preserve players’ existing wins and streak data once the game heads to its new home. That said, The New York Times’ announcement leaves plenty of room for the company to decide to put Wordle behind its paywall in the future."

so because of how legacy characters work, Batman is always portrayed as being in his 30s or 40s, which means that Batman is currently a 90s kid.

One of my favorite Canterbury Tales is the Summoner's tale. So Chaucer, the dude who wrote the Tales, hated Friars because they ran the Indulgences scam where the church would forgive your sins if you had the cash. In fact, we apparently have the court records from the time Chaucer beat up a friar (1).
So in the Summoner's tale, an angel takes a friar to hell to show it off. The friar is relieved to see no friars in any of the angel's visions, and asks 'have friars such a grace/That none of them shall come into this place?'

At which point the angel tell Satan to lift up his ass, and a host of friars fly out of it like bees. So yes, Chaucer sold a popular book that said all friars live up Satan's arsehole.
