Reblog to let prev know their presence is wanted

DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE dir. Shawn Levy (2024)

and its spiced up with fanon cannibalized characterization

Brilliant Minds said "forcing someone to stay alive when there is no reasonable meaning in forcing them to keep living is cruel, and honoring a patient's wishes means that you have to sometimes have to let them do things that you cannot agree with" and it fucked.

at some point you have to realize that you actually have to read to understand the nuance of anything. we as a society are obsessed with summarization, likely as a result of the speed demanded by capital. from headlines to social media (twitter being especially egregious with the character limit), people take in fragments of knowledge and run with them, twisting their meaning into a kaleidoscope that dilutes the message into nothing. yes, brevity is good, but sometimes the message, even when communicated with utmost brevity, requires a 300 page book. sorry.

this post is apparently going around terf circles now so i feel like i should let y'all know that you are agreeing with a transsexual lesbian who fucks nasty. get the fuck off my post and also your "feminism" is anything but.

reblog this version, cowards

We are ancient, but we still fucking REMEMBER.

i'm a big fan of tv shows where they do an episode from the POV of a side character and they're living in a completely different genre than the main character

Sebastian Stan as Jefferson/The Mad Hatter

ONCE UPON A TIME S1-S3

Superheroes then spent the intervening 80 years being mainstream entertainment in the US in a turbulent political climate where they were tied to comic books morality cencorship, and in a time when the mainstream Liberal position was that it was actually OK to bomb countries if they are trying to become communist, and equating counter-culture with crime and a threat to order.

originalism that ignores decades of built in cultural context is useless. this is the same shit arguing not liking country music is racist because it has origins in black music, and ignoring how the country mysic industry positioned itself firmly behing Barry Goldwater and Richard Nixon.

the UK far right will fucking cite the spirit of the Normandy invasion while arguing against refugees arriving in the UK. do you not understand cultural signifiers can and regularly get recuperated?

this reminds me of this visual essay by joey devilla

BRILLIANT MINDS • S1E08 ↳ “The Lovesick Widow”

stop letting miserable people on the internet convince you that you must have a concrete, well-constructed opinion on everything that has ever existed.

BRILLIANT MINDS • S1E07 ↳ “The Man From Grozny”

#me meeting anyone I dislike again

I can't keep having the same conversations about love languages, mbti, iq, bmi, "brain fully formed at 25" and shit over and over again...

these things exist on a spectrum from untrue to straightforwardly racist btw. so if we could retire them forever that'd be nice.
