(Warning: this post discusses true crime, and though it avoids details of murders, it does reference various topics surrounding true crime. This post also discusses Depression/Anxiety.
Any links to other websites may have further details of true crime, though I've tried to avoid anything graphic; I am not responsible for the content on these sites.)
I find true crime media weirdly helpful with combatting the affects of my mental health problems.
I put true crime shows on the TV sometimes in the evening, to wind down before falling asleep.
I clamour to Netflix true crime to calm my Anxiety.
I watch true crime docs or YouTube videos while I'm working to help me concentrate.
It's Thursday, it's April, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!
(Warning: this post discusses death (which you probably figured out,) suicide, grief, mourning, online abuse, domestic abuse, racism, colonisation, ableism, ageism)
Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, died on Friday. He was 99 years old, nearly 100.
...As seems to be the norm, the world then descended into extreme points of view.
Especially the Internet, obviously, because the Internet is like every extreme dialled up to the max.

This week's fic is just a schmoopy and super-cute li'l fic all about family!
(Woo!)
As we all know, (or maybe we don't, but if that's the case I'ma tell you!) the Hargreeves family, aka the members of The Umbrella Academy, have a butt-tonne of family issues.
Like, the tagline to the Netflix series is actually 'Super. Dysfunctional. Family.' and that pretty much sums it up, tbh.
So I kinds love fics where the Hargreeveseseses are like super-duper-awkward about family stuff, but somehow make it work (mostly because they never manage to make it work in canon!)
It's Thursday, the world is still pretty weird, let's get some superhero-y, comics-y, goodness!
