I'm still mad with Libba Brey for murdering Mabel.

I am a BIG fan of all the workers fighting to unionize, fighting for better conditions and pay, striking, and standing in solidarity this summer.

May this rising sea work to lift all boats and, remember, don’t be a scab!

found this informative, about how studios are going to attempt to use influencers (particularly small ones) to try to cross pickets by paying a lot for movie promos, and that SAG-AFTRA likely will not let you in if you do this. my suspicion is they're hoping people won't understand the implications so wanted to spread the word!!

I feel like a subtitle to Captain America: Civil War could be Bucky and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.

the reason bucky barnes and maria hill weren't allowed to meet and be friends in the mcu is because together their combined queer energy would rival the yellowstone supervalcano

fantasy story that starts with a typical Chosen One prophecy, and devolves into a convoluted legal battle with the prophecee suing the propheter for slander and harassment

glass onion was amazing and I wouldn’t change anything about it. BUT I do think it would have been hilarious if there was a post credit scene with all of them getting covid, because of course miles’ gun vax thing doesn’t work.

Boromir: Oh, we're like a big happy family! I'm the dad and Aragorn's the mom!

Aragorn: Why am I the mom? What gender roles are we pushing here?

Frodo: I know they're probably thinking I'm like the kid, but I'm not. I'll be the gay, emo cousin.

Pippin: I will be the kid! The hotshot! Whose only dream... is to be a star...

Gimli: I feel like I'd be a fresh outta jail uncle.

Legolas: And I'm the sassy aunt, who talks shit about everybody.

Cops are trained to be bad. Anyone who insists on being good is not welcome.

"Walkable city" is not "City where to have to walk everywhere."

"Walkable city" is.

Sidewalks big enough to fit you, your stroller, your wheelchair, your guide dog, or anything else you need when you're getting from one place to another.

Safe crosswalks frequent enough so you don't need to walk in traffic.

Bike lanes to keep bikes out of foot traffic and car traffic.

Accessible and affordable public transit.

Cities where the essentials are close enough you can travel on foot (or in wheelchair)

Cities where it's reasonable to be able to get from point a to point b without requiring you, yourself, to drive

People get so caught up in the "Walkable" part of the term and like to spout "Walkable cities are abelist because not everyone can walk".

Bitch. The modern city structure is abelist because not everyone can drive. And classist because not everyone can afford a car and it's pretty damn impossible to get a job if you don't have a car.

Walkable cities are cities where people can reasonably get from pointA to pointB without requiring a motor vehicle.

"But fae. Disabled people have issues using the paths in modern cities." Bitch abled people can barely use the paths in modern cities. That's kind of the fucking problem.

Also walkable cities have fucking benches. Not only for disabled people. But sometimes you just twist your ankle and need to sit for a moment.

"Put fae. If you have benches, homeless people will sleep on them."

Then get fucking housing for the homeless. Problem solved. They'll sleep in their nice warm homes instead of on the benches.

Disheartening to see the same people who say “Don’t give money to JKR’s antisemitic shitpile of a game” uncritically enjoying and sharing Avatar content. Does genocide not matter unless it’s happening to you? Does the concept of “Don’t fund white supremacy” have a cut-off for how much white supremacy is Enough To Matter? Everyone rightfully lost their mind over how disgusting the concept of Nazi Romeo And Death Camp Prisoner Juliet was, but you’re happy to make James “Maybe the ongoing native american genocide wouldn’t be happening if they’d just try harder sweaty :)” Cameron’s Blue Pocahontas 2: White Saviour Complex Boogaloo the sixth-highest-grossing film of all time in the wake of a Supreme Court battle surrounding the re-legalisation of the kidnapping and forcible Christian conversion of our children at the end of a year where they also took steps to strip what little authority our tribes have over our own sovereign land.

I expect this from white people. Not people who know so deeply and intimately how genocide and ongoing violence and bigotry affect a marginalised community.

I’m not mad, I’m just disappointed, etc.
