I think I might have a mission for @memecaptainsteverogers

I haven’t listened because I am very behind on my Radio Shows (podcasts) but I know about this from my intense love of pangolins. It’s a sin and a crime! People don’t even want them as pets, they want them as medicine that doesn’t work. And also food. If you want to eat a creature, farm them! Don’t smuggle it illegally from the wild! Do you want no more dodos? This is how you get no more dodos. 

They’re getting their own back, though. I’m also seeing news that pangolins are supercarriers of coronaviruses, and while they may not have caused COVID-19 they also might have, which means their road to supervillain status is paved before them. Which, if you can’t be good, be good at what you do, I guess. 

August Has No Federal Holiday.

Except it DOES NOW. Due to a legal loophole known as the Because I Said So And If You Disagree Fight Me clause, I have the authority to declare federal holidays.

In my capacity as Captain America I am declaring, henceforth and in perpetuity, that the second Friday in August shall be known as National Parks Rebellion Day. 

Even though it happened in January, the second Friday in August is a much more temperate time to commemorate the glorious rebellion of the National Parks social media accounts against the tyranny of 45. National Parks Rebellion Day encourages all those who are able to visit a National Park, and for those who can’t to celebrate our great outdoors with cookouts, backyard camping, acts of civil disobedience (but not in the parks, pick up your trash you degenerates), and Absolutely No Fireworks, It’s A Fire Hazard And It Upsets People. 

You have over a month to prepare! This August, plan to celebrate a National Park with a park party! We will be having one at Stark Tower and anyone who loves National Parks and Civil Disobedience are welcome. Our theme will be John Muir Would Punch This President Right In His Face. 

Costumes and donations of camping gear for disadvantaged Girl Scouts are strongly encouraged.

National Parks Rebellion Day is a month and a half away! Start planning your parties now! 

The third annual National Parks Rebellion Day is coming! You have a little over a month to prepare. Celebrate our National Parks however you think best, from donating to support them to having a campout or a cookout to Deliberately Not Setting Off Fireworks and Deliberately Picking Up Your Trash. 

The council for advancing National Parks Rebellion Day (ie, me) also encourages those who can to participate in Global Sleep Under The Stars Night, the Saturday before National Parks Rebellion Day. Is it sponsored by a massive corporate entity? Yes! Is it still a really fun idea you can participate in while totally ignoring Eddie Bauer? ALSO YES! 

I Support National Parks Rebellion Day!

May I suggest: adding in the Forest Service and making the Official Date August 9th, which is already a holiday - Smokey Bear’s birthday. Holiday would still be observed on the second Friday.

APPROVED. Smokey the Bear is now an honorary Avenger. He’ll fit right in.

holy ……!

Sandslash is super effective against rock types

They have those claws for ripping into termite mounds to find something to eat. Considering that scientists are currently studying termite mound construction for potential applications in concrete manufacturing, I guess it’s actually pretty logical that a pangolin would be able to tear through concrete given the right leverage and motivation. It being logical does not, however, make it any less fascinating or terrifying to watch.

^It’s also a fair likelihood that it’s why it’s tearing into that wall. Chances are, there are ants in that wall.

Unparallelled magnificence. I love ripping through concrete. Truly the pangolin is my soulmate. 

Noooooooo!

*awestruck* They did it without me. The Pangolins. They achieved supervillainy without me even interfering. Truly they are nature’s perfect beast. 

the only reason anyone should own a fax machine is to use it as a heavy weapon

Hey! Let Doug enjoy his retirement!

….are you talking about the tax machine? Is the fax machine’s name Doug?

Yes! And he worked here loyally long enough that, were he legally recognized as a person, he’d be entitled to the full vested pension, so can we not just chuck him at goons unless absolutely necessary?

It was ONCE and anyway what if Doug WANTS to be a superhero? 

I don’t think being a superhero usually involves getting tossed at bad guys…

Oh, my friend.

You haven’t heard of the Fastball Special.

you’d be singing a different tune if they made pangolin pokemon.

I plan to name my trainer Steve, and the party after either the Howlues or Avengers. No I don’t take creative criticisms .

If they made pangolin pokemon I would fill my ‘dex with them and then unleash them on the world. I would no longer even need a shield. I would be Captain Pangolin.

I’ll need 15 immediately, and we’re going to have to find a way to get them up to about 150 pounds each. 

A Note From Steve Mod

Hello, readers and fellow roleplayers! 

As you all may have noticed, my activity here has dropped off in the past few months, as I’ve been adjusting to a new job, a more active social life, and some other minor life changes. I hate to say it, but I haven’t really been able to devote much time to the Steve Blog, and I’ve felt bad about it, but these things do happen.

This is a sideblog attached to my regular tumblr, so I can’t give it away; anyway, I might still want to post here occasionally when I’m feeling funny :D But I can’t promise any kind of real or regular activity, and it feels selfish to sit on this character when someone else could be having fun with it.

So! While I will keep MemeCaptainSteveRogers and may even post by him occasionally, I want to make sure that folks in the shitmeme know if someone else wants to build a Steve shitmeme blog and start playing in, they’re welcome to do so and I won’t contravene them in the game. 

This has been a ton of fun, you guys, and I’m so glad to have had the opportunity to participate. Thank you all for a great run, and I hope to see you around in the future! 

((Out of character to say your posts have been an absolute joy and I don’t think there will ever be a Steve Rogers quite like you. Thank you for everything and I hope you can come back to it one day. <3))

Aw, thank you! I’ve enjoyed the game immensely and it was always fun playing in with Wanda!
