Seeing @ssnyder1835.bsky.social share that on my feed was something I wasn’t expecting, and made me a little emotional to think about. #batman21 Sep 2026 22:23 +0000at://did:plc:zbvjur5jadxrzapiabnetgdg/app.bsky.feed.post/3mw2qttlb5s24https://bsky.app/profile/michaelbellonis.bsky.social/post/3mvnjvc6x3s26I think I might have PTSD from my time working at grocery stores, because I was not expecting this anime to hurt me in the ways that it did.
