There is something very comforting about Schitt’s Creek where these guys can be out in a small town in the middle of nowhere, North America. It’s still very welcoming and there aren’t people who are outwardly homophobic. Was that an intentional choice?

I just wanna know how Wanda went from Tony's funeral, to reanimating her dead boyfriend's corpse and holding a whole town hostage. Clearly she took a turn somewhere.

oh you know. something about 5x17. something about a drunk angel outside a motel with a no vacancy sign talking about God as a deadbeat dad with the human he’s falling from heaven for. I’m gonna eat glass

Remember that time Pink Kryptonite randomly turned Superman into a woman and he was just all ‘It’s cool brah’ and continued punching baddies?

I cant believe superman has a magical girl sequence

Superman, in his normal deep voice: “I can work with this.”

“This is Aang. The Avatar,” Katara says slowly.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you,” Zuko replies carefully.

“Don’t you mean it’s an honor?” Sokka retorts.

Zuko strongly considers breaking his cover just to murder Sokka right there.

can’t believe i turned on The Old Guard thinking “charlize theron’s hot; i’ll watch her in anything” and walked away completely consumed by the love of two thousand-year-old men

One of the many things I love about The Old Guard is their use of guns. Theres none of that old Holywood “endless bullets” shit. You see characters empty their clip, check for rounds, pick up a new clip or gun when they run out. When Nile’s gun jams its not just for the plot sake but a reality that after using 10 different guns, one will probably fail. It might seem like a little thing but the endless bullets schtick takes me out of a lot of actions movies, so, for me, this made all the difference.

still not over how meaningful it was to me to see in The Old Guard a depiction of a queer couple who have been together for going on a thousand years and are still disgustingly in love with each other. not just the possibility of queerness or the passing confirmation of attraction, but long-lasting, life-altering, confident love. 

also, it is absolutely hilarious to watch queer reviewers freaking out in joy over this movie and straight reviewers going ‘there was nothing original about this, just the same as a hundred other comic book movies, I am a terrible person who hates joy

Nicky is clearly framed as The Sensitive One: the one who worries about Nile being scared and alone when she first discovers she’s immortal, who invites her to talk through her nightmare with them, who’s still thinking about the kids they thought they were rescuing after it’s clear they’ve been set up, who thinks about small things like offering a non-aggressive greeting to civilians they pass while armed to the teeth in a former war zone (“peace be with you” might just be a standard greeting in Nuer, the same way it is in Arabic, but I think it’s also his way of saying “don’t worry, we’re not here to harm you.”)

But also…Nicky’s the sniper, a kind of violence associated with coldness and deliberateness and ruthlessness, and we see that he is very good at it. When he and Joe are sleeping, Nicky’s always the one in front, between Joe and the door, and when they wake up in the safe house Nicky has a gun in his hand before Joe’s even fully woken up. (He’s also the one who sees Nile put herself between Andy and a bullet when that needs to be done and copies the move immediately after.) And when we see him and Joe fighting together in the lab, he is usually the one in front, attacking first to disarm or disable an opponent and relying on Joe, behind him, to guard his back and finish the job. And they do it so fluidly that this is clearly an established pattern with them.

The only time we see him get visibly angry is when someone hurts Joe, and yes, of course. But also, “cinnamon roll who goes absolutely feral when you hurt someone they love” is a trope we have seen before, and I think there’s more going on here than that.

Nicky is quiet and attentive to others and emotionally intelligent, and he is extremely competent at violence; he’s just not quick to anger and he’s not cocky or showy about it. “He thinks you’re a mouse, Nicky,” Joe says about Merrick, and he thinks it’s funny, because he’s seen this so many times before, someone underestimating Nicky because they think he’s soft, and he has most definitely seen that be the last mistake they ever make.

Mmmmm wrong.

Buying something that is commercially produced directly from the producers is the textbook example of not cultural appropriation.

hey uh this went south fucking fast. thoughout the stream, the time allotted for citizens went from 2mins to 30s, with the officials frequently cutting the ever-decreasing time short on individuals. they all just sat there not reacting unless someone dared use a curse or the one occasion where someone mentioned that their locations were public knowledge. At one point a caller asked the panel to raise their hands if they could hear them, and some of the jackasses didn’t respond, but was covered for by the Madam President of the panel saying, lying, quickly “yes we can all hear you”. Throughout, there was the sound of gunshots and they apparently lied about there not being any. Anyway so yeah most of them had their audio just fucking muted and were just blankly staring at their webcams for hours instead of hearing anyone actually criticize them. This is one of the worst excuses of performative fake accountability “we hear you”ing to date.
