really not a fan of how ‘realism’ in fantasy and other genres is often synonymous with ‘shitty to women and poc’
This scene is seriously the cutest thing ever.
#Remember when there was a non-human person who hadnt talked to anyone of her species in decades #And her only companion was the man she loved and who ignored her or bossed her around and was rude to her #And Martha met her and the Doctor and Jack were busy doing ‘important shit’ #But Martha was the one who took the time to chat with her #To learn more about her language and culture #Who befriended her #Encouraged her to open up and joked with her and made her laugh #And then because of that discovered what they needed to know BEFORE EVERYONE ELSE#remember that #Remember that time Martha Jones was better than you #God bless Martha Jones
martha <3
Remember how Doctor Who fans all hated Martha for some reason. When the “worst” she did was has feelings for their white fav. She never even acted on those feelings, never broke up any ship, and even at a point came out and explained why she needed to move on from the toxic cycle of getting hung up on someone who didn’t return her feelings. Also she was a badass without getting a sue inserted backstory to match in with the Doctor’s history or putting other characters down or having to constantly show them up.
martha was too good for us
if it ends up being biden v trump we gotta start burnin shit down
No. We don’t.
What we have to do is fucking GROW UP.
There’s not one single thing in the world (outside of the choice of what’s for dinner) that gives “us” 100% of what we want 100% of the time. This is especially true for politics.
Do you know what Biden is?
An acceptable (note: not perfect. not necessarily desirable.) compromise candidate who can pull the largest number of people behind him.
Do you know what Biden is? A candidate who can carry the Midwest and Rust Belt states, the flyover states that went to Trump and guaranteed his victory.
He’s a candidate with experience. He’s a candidate who has been in the trenches for decades, has seen social challenges and changes, who has been wrong in the past (but right for the time he was in, wrong when viewed with today’s lens) and has apologized for the “mistakes” he has made.
He’s lost his son and grieved deeply.
Would I like to see other candidates? sure. I particularly like Mayor Pete Buttigieg. But when the time comes to enter the voting booth? Vote for the party (that’d be Democrat) if you can’t vote for the candidates, because it’s better to have Biden than Trump.
The next time someone rudely asks me “so… what are you?” as a way of trying to figure out my race, I’m gonna answer as nervously as possible with “hahah ahah ahaha… human? liKE YOU?” and then walk about 3 feet away from them before stage whispering into my watch “I fear the humans are beginning to catch on. I believe it’s now time to proceed with Plan E.”
What amuses me is the Plan E part. That means several other plans have failed. You are a terrible secret agent.
[sweats and whispers into watch] “They’re definitely onto us.”
fun morning doodle based off a tweet on my feed this morning lol
She is Ready To Fite
ever since milo told me about jake gyllenhaals cats instagram yesterday i literally havent felt any peace at all

edward elric is so edgy and so pained and so hostile all the time and everyone buys it because he lost his family and some of his limbs and meanwhile al is in the corner having lost his entire body giggling to himself because he fit 3 whole cats in his stomach and nobody caught him yet
ya’ll were really gonna let me live my life in ignorance thinking mr. rogers was straight???
oh whoops, did we forget to tell you? there’s a quote in The Good Neighbor where Mr. Rogers talked about being attracted to both men and women
FRED ROGERS I LOVE YOU EVEN MORE
WOOOO
I know we are all feeling bad for Taika right now but honestly my heart breaks for him because he tried SO HARD to get a scene with bisexual Valkyrie on screen only for it to be chucked out, and now the Russos get to claim that their pathetic little cameo piece was the first on screen LGBT character in the mcu
reblogging with my own tags because you know what? I’m right and I should say it.
How obvious is it that men are making these decisions,,
ALSO, THE BILL STATES MISCARRIAGES CAN GET A PREGNANT PERSON JAILED
This is not the first nor the last state we will see trying to overturn Roe V Wade
Call your state senators! Get this shit to stop!
The handmaids tale is so creative with its depiction of rich straight Christian white men thinking the rules apply to everyone but them, like where did they even get that idea
lesbian privilege, as told by kate mckinnon.

“He’s not racist he just thinks it’s funny to say racist things to see people’s reactions!” Yeah that’s a racist
White ppl was really mad about this post
Wait, are you telling me that saying racist things is racist?
what if in the english dub gaara looked like this
yashamaru: gaara…. the monster that only live laugh loves itself….
i like how writing realistic worlds and characters is so important for so many writers to the point where they agonize over it. meanwhile lemony snicket was just like “death to reality. im gonna write this whole ass series and with god as my witness, absolutely fucking NOBODY is gonna act like a person.”
Daniel Handler, after downing whatever the hell he was on: The baby has piranha teeth and can take a trained swordswoman in a fight.
All of us: Fucking genius.
readers: what time and place is this set in? Daniel Handler: Yes.
natural selection has failed the ninja world
do you think naruto has to count tails every time he retreats into his subconscious to ensure that yes, he is speaking to the ninetails, and that a squid hasn’t somehow snuck in there
