Once Upon a Tardis

Sam Wilson asking T’challa the important question.

Steve: Sam, you’re a bird and I run around in a star-spangled onesie. There is no moral high ground here.

he monch

so what did muggles think was happening during the voldemort wars? i mean surely they had to have seen some of it, they can’t just write it off as

you know what i just remembered that we had killer clown sightings all over last year and our reaction was ‘huh that’s weird/creepy anyway let’s not wonder about that any more’

tv shows with time travel organizations/bureaus/police/agencies/whatever should have a department with instead of a tech genius eating candy, it’s a harried seamstress or fashion designer who is like

“1450 italy? does it look like I have the time to dye you wool? nO. YOU’RE GOING TO THE 1980s”

and throws shoulder pads at the hapless time agent

“I literally made three- THREE- 18th century corsets last week. You can wait until one of them gets back, or you can go sometime post-1920s, because if I have to sew one more god damn channel I will literally lose my mind.”

“Upper middle class?!?!? You told me upper class! FUCK YEAH THERE’S A DIFFERENCE!!!”

“How about kimoNO.”

“Look me in the eyes. I do not care what you want. This is the 1500s. You absolutely cannot wear trousers.”

“Another court gown?? Here’s a novel idea: go as a peasant for once in your life. Why do you do this to me? You’re fucking sadists that’s why.”

“Don’t mind me, I’ll just be up all night hand painting silk.”

“THE POLICY IS ONE MONTH’S ADVANCE NOTICE ON PRE-1900s WOMEN’S FASHION FOR A REASON, DEBRA.”

@squeeful is the seamstress.

omg i love it.

“SUMPTUARY LAWS, BRANDON”

dudes, dudettes, it’s a time travel agency. the seamstress just breaks and time travels to fulfill the requests. there’s like 75,000 of her at any one time, carefully waltzing from a to b to z, carefully avoiding paradoxes and confounding everybody constantly. the unspoken rule of the time bureau, we don’t talk about the delicate waltz of the seamstress who seamlessly weaves her way around reality breaking paradoxes with needle like precision. ever.

So whenever i would watch movies and see The Badass Female Character fighting in various ways, something about it always bugged me. I just assumed it was internalized misogyny that made me dislike characters like black widow and Tauriel and tried to make myself like them.

Then I was rewatching Mad Max Fury Road the other day and I noticed that nothing bothered me about watching Furiosa fight and I realized the problem wasn’t watching women fight in movies that got on my nerves.

Watching the stereotypical Badass Female Character she always has these effortless moves and a cocky, sexy smirk on her face as everything is easy. Watching Furiosa, she grunted and bared her teeth. Her fighting was hard and it took effort and it hurt like fighting is supposed to. For once her fighting style wasn’t supposed to seduce the audience it was to be effective.

I wasn’t disliking these characters because they were women I was disliking that their fighting was meant to remind me they were women. High heels and shapely outfits and not showing effort or discomfort because it’s more attractive to effortlessly lift a long leather clad leg over your head rather than rugby tackle someone.

It’s the same with the Wonder Woman movie too. Fighting is hard and it takes effort, blocking bombs and bullets with a shield makes her grimace and bare her teeth with the effort it takes. She’s not flip kicking bombs she’s yelling and straining, not because she’s weak or bad at fighting but because that’s what it would be like.

I really hope we’re moving into an era of women having fighting styles designed for realism and not how hot it looks for the men in the audience.

Photographer Francois Brunelle has been working on an amazing project; searching for people who look strikingly similar but have no relation to each other. These are some of this incredible finds. 

this fucked me up

no way

Shoutout to Francois for making complete strangers full on stroke each others’ faces for art what a power move

IT LOOKS LIKE A S'MORES POPTART

I absolutely lose my shit laughing every time I see this

Ominous positivity

You will be okay. You have no choice.

Everything will turn out fine. You cannot stop it.

You will succeed. It is inevitable.

My mom just sent me this picture of my dog…I guess we got a lot of snow, then

update:

Great update

my life is complete

I can feel the surprised expression on the duck’s face.  It’s like “This is unexpected,”

The spirit of a Generation

You’ve gone too far.

hey there boys, it’s me, ya demon.

Just so you know there was a scene during my test screening of into the spiderverse where Peter Porker says fuck and I just went and watched the final film tonight and they cut it out. It appeared in a speech bubble with a bunch of symbols like “f$&@!”. He also had a horrifying line about one of his family members dying and it smelling like singed bacon that legit got gasps during the test screening but they cut that as well. I just want you to know they made John Mulaney say so much weird shit that did not make it into the final cut of the film and y’all better pray they put it in the extended features because I was DEVASTATED at some of the jokes they removed.

Fun fact, they didnt make John say any of that stuff. in an interview he said that, since he was a comedian he was told to “have fun with it” during his recording sessions; which apparently lead to a lot of swearing and morbid jokes for at least 2 hours before he stopped and asked what the movie was rated. “PG.”

“Oh, so you can’t use anything that I’ve said at all”

“No, no we cant.”

“Well why didnt you guys stop me sooner??”

“You were having fun with it.”

i love the implication here that a multibillion-dollar animation studio with executive meddling saturating every action it takes went so far as to animate a character saying fuck and include it in test screenings for their rated-PG holiday blockbuster

im going to have a stroke

Instead try… Person A: You know… the thing Person B: The “thing”? Person A: Yeah, the thing with the little-! *mutters under their breath* Como es que se llama esa mierda… THE FISHING ROD

As someone with multiple bilingual friends where English is not the first language, may I present to you a list of actual incidents I have witnessed:

Bilingual characters are great but if you’re going to use a linguistic blunder, you have to really understand what they actually blunder over. And it’s usually 10x funnier than “Ooops it’s hard to switch back.”

Actually completely switching languages and being unaware of it has 100% actually happened to me several times. Especially when I was tired. I’ve spoken several sentences to people in the wrong language before realizing what was happening.

I only drink free-range, organic water

Not to be dramatic but how fucking dare this have no sound
