I know that it’s weird going from a cage in the S.H.I.E.L.D. labs to my living quarters. I get that. I do. But you can’t just leap off every surface in the room and wreck all my stuff, Niels.
I understand. You’re scared and confused. Come here. Come on.
There. Yeah, I understand. You find yourself in a strange place in a strange world. You don’t know how to fit in or what to do next. Tell me about it.
Tell you what, I’ll raise my body temp just a little. So I’m warm and cozy. You like that? There. Nice cat.

I wish the writers/director would stop adding things. Every time I start to come to terms with Steve’s ending they open their big fat mouths and make me mad all over again.

Right?! God do I feel you, Anon. They really do need to just stop talking. I know of a few musicians who used to refuse to put song lyrics on their cd covers (random cd reference, I’m old, lol) because they wanted the listener to interpret and experience each song through their own lenses. I wish film makers/writers would do the same, honestly. Because the ones that dictate every single aspect and nuance of a story to us take away the entire point behind symbolism and allegorical storytelling. And in the case of the Russos and Markus and McFeely, they’re contradicting each other, which just makes things all the more exasperating.

The European Southern Observatory (ESO) just released an absolutely beautiful photo taken by the Very Large Telescope of the reflection nebula NGC 2023 roughly 1,500 light-years from earth. (image credit: ESO)

I feel like I make a different post saying the same thing about the same subject at least once per week, but I can’t help but be really annoyed/disturbed by the whole “give me a happy ending, give me positive feelings, I got into this work of fiction to try and get the satisfaction I don’t find in real life and I DEMAND you give it to me otherwise your work is GARBAGE” trend.

Oh man yeah. I cannot STAND the way people conflate “good writing” with “things that suit me personally.” Idk if they realize that satisfaction and catharsis come from different places for different people. If every story was like a fluffy fanfic, someone like me would be bored to tears by all media ever.
