I love WandaVision and TFATWS but I've come to realize that both shows assume that Team Cap went on their separate lives completely after everything they went through together in Civil War until Infinity War. The Avengers had different dynamics over the years but Team Cap, at least, in my opinion, is found family. This means Clint, Sam, Bucky and Wanda (and maybe Scott too) would keep tabs on each other after being pardoned and going separate ways, even with Steve and Nat gone... ESPECIALLY with Steve and Nat gone.
This is true for Sam and Bucky since we did have TFATWS, although Bucky did cut off communication with Sam for a while. This should be true also for Wanda and Clint, because on top of their history in Age of Ultron and Civil War, they both shared grief for loved ones and even shared a scene in Endgame. I don't think Clint would leave her completely alone because 1. she doesn't have anyone left but her found family which is the rest of Team Cap and 2. Clint understands what it's like to lose everything. He'd be there for her like how Nat was there for him when he lost his family. I also think Sam would also go his way to reach out to Wanda, because Steve was like a big brother or protector to her. And Sam would occasionally check in on Scott Lang and Clint too because he knows Steve would do the same and heart is what they have in common.
My point being, for sure they would catch wind of what was happening to Wanda in New Jersey. If Clint did keep close tabs on Wanda. Sam has government connections too. They would have helped her or attempted to communicate with her if they were busy elsewhere.
I know the shows were meant to focus on the titular characters and introduce new characters, but I wish they would show that they are still somehow connected to each other. They did go through so much together in the past years. Short cameos or even post-credit scenes would suffice so they stay true to character, sequence and connection of the characters. I mean, even fans think Tom Holland should have had a cameo because Peter Parker would have helped Sam, Bucky, John and Sharon in New York since he himself is around the area.
Well of course, we can't fully blame Marvel bc even most of the planned cameos were cut due to restrictions in the production. 🤷🏻‍♀️

how to cheat the system
alias beating a huge struggle with studying & handing in assignments on time
I have always been the girl to start studying the night before a smaller exam, the one who handed assignments in late/on time but they were made last minute and never turned out quite alright.
and yet, here I am done with a 80 page assignment 4 days before the deadline. and I want to show you some of the things that has worked for me (a 23 yo mentally ill individual) and that were always displayed as "the wrong way" to study & write.
I'm hoping you'll learn something from this post, so here we go...
tips and tricks to help with procastination & "laziness"
1. the voices in our heads
are you always overthinking? are "the voices" in your head speaking nonsense all the time? or maybe you are just bouncing all over the place and don't know, where/how to start?
maybe you need to turn these voices off. I usually choose some music and plug my earphones in if I want to focus fully on the project I'm doing. it's great to choose something that will put you in the right mindset. a tv show/channel can also help if you can focus with all of the talking (and speaking from experience, there are days when it's the only thing helping)
maybe choose your favourite playlist and blast those happy songs. or go on youtube and search up one of those specific playlists for an undisturbed hour, like "POV you're having a storke in a well-lit room at 1:38 am"
I think this is my fav, if you're interested (sorry, it's mcyt themed).
2. getting started
this is the biggest thing in my life! like I mentioned above, I never knew how to start my projects. there is two ways I was able to get through difficult tasks, my mindset being the thing that it depended on.
a. just start at the very start and follow the tasks/questions as they come after each other. sometimes it's easier not to complain about certain parts but to power through everything.
b. choose the easiest parts, or the ones that you like and would love to do first. than make a new order in which you're getting them done. this is a bit dangerous, because you might leave the hardest ones to the end by accident, but never worry, the deadline is coming up and that will take care of the problem, lol.
actually you can start the project easier if you think of them as a fun activity, like timing the first session, which I'll talk in more detail about int the next section.
3. time management
just like an infant, I have no clue about time management. I have time blindness and I never know where/when I am.
so I made this technique to be able to predict the time a certain project will take. this is usually great for the bigger, more complex ones.
start by doing a little section of the assignment. for example, I had 10 parts to do in this essay. I chose a medium length one to start with and I measured the time I spent on it (of course with the length of the POV playlists). I multiplied it with 10, give or take the easier/more difficult ones and I could plan my sessions.
adhd + struggling with anxiety (at least I think this is the one behind this from the endless list of my mental diseases) makes it really hard for me to do anything if I have an appointment (even if it's in 6 hours or so). to deal with this, making a few alarms and knowing if you have enough time for a part of the project is enough can help to get work done even when it's usually not working out that way for you.
4. motivation / keeping up
I always struggled with the right motivation. I hated school through my entire life and struggling with mental illnesses didn't help either. I never really knew how to motivate myself, because "sitting down and just doing it" never seemed to work for me.
actually, it's different for everyone, but for me the things I love the most worked really well.
to be exact, circling studying for 1 hour straight, and playing 30-60 minutes of minecraft after it worked wonders. some days when I didn't have the energy for this, I watched a youtube video/part of a livestream instead, to relax a bit.
(if it was a really hard day, I actually started with minecraft, but maybe don't try this if you don't get bored easily/don't have as much self-control!)
I have no clue how I ended up doing my essay getting to a higher level of my educator career modell while listening to sad playlists & playing videogames, but oh well...
I hope these tips can help! stay strong, it will get easier.
actually I'm making a mental health awareness post to go with this, so stay tuned.
