Ngl y’all writing about what a white feminist Wendy is while being two white women writing about your favs being into raceplay feels a little like projection
someone sent me an anon asking if the canonically racist and deplorable character would do something racist and deplorable so i said “probably.” how you saw this as “projecting” onto my “fav” is absolutely WILD and beyond me.
also wendy in this au is a white feminist journalist because everyone is at their worst here! in this specific au, i believe that wendy at her worst would be a liberal vox journalist. and i’m not gonna lie, i think a lot of these kinds of asks are very disingenuous and willfully misinterpreting things, especially considering how many times both of us have explained this au on our blogs time and time again.

U. S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, 64 – Massachusetts Democrat
Ms. Warren is another influencial radical, second-wave feminist who thrives on irrational lies and is incapable of connecting-the-dots in order to determine the falsehoods that underpin her bizarre assumptions. And the reason? She has adopted the Marxist infused ideology of radical, second-wave feminism, as her bible.
Radical, second-wave feminism is notoriously successful at diffusing the truth, especially for women who are susceptible to their socialist way of thinking. And in 1970, Ms. Warren was that perfect young, female patsy – white, middle-class and one of the oldest female baby boomers, having been born in 1949.
Ms. Warren followed radical feminism’s handbook almost from Day 1. She married her high school sweetheart Jim Warren in 1968, just as feminism was coming of age. But soon after having her two de rigueur children, Warren began to veer away from home.
Soon after graduating from Rutgers University Law School, she began teaching law at Rutgers in 1977, divorced her inconvenient engineer husband in 1978, married another lawyer, Bruce Mann (but kept her surname) and never looked back.
Concerning her first marriage (to the now deceased Jim Warren) she would say that he was “not a bad guy.” But, it was the 1970s and she was the mom, which, thanks to radical, second-wave feminism, was no longer enough.
Later, Warren would again write about her first husband, “He had married a nineteen-year-old girl, and she hadn’t grown into the woman we had both expected. I was very, very sorry, but I couldn’t change what I had become (a radical, second-wave feminist). I was supposed to be the Betty Crocker award winner, but I set things on fire.” Typical snarky feminist remark.
Concerning her second marriage —- as soon as her Aunt Bee agreed to come and care for her two little children (so that Warren could keep teaching law), she filed for divorce. Not surprisingly, Warren was already involved with Bruce Mann. They had met earlier at a reception for a conference on law and economics in Florida.
Elizabeth Warren and Bruce Mann’s wedding day
The very timid Mann, who had never been married, was immediately smittened by the outgoing Warren and would soon begin to fly to Warren’s home on the weekends. Elizabeth Warren and Bruce Mann would be married within six months of her ­divorce. And, Aunt Bee? She would stay for the next 15 years.
So, in less than 10 years, Warren was transformed, by radical feminism, from a stay-at-home mom to a full-blown radical, second-wave feminist. She was the product of the feminist-imbued 1970s, jettisoning the traditional values of her Christian faith along the way and adopting radical feminism’s ideology in its place, becoming a liberated, self-centered, free-love, divorced, “career” woman instead.
According the radical feminism, Warren “had it all” – a “career” at a university that was looking for female law professors, a wimpy man (wife) waiting in the wings, and a babysitter for her inconvenient children. So now, it was truly, all-about-her.
In 1995, after having taught law at universities in Texas, Michigan and Pennsylvania, the final transition to official radical, second-wave feminist would come when she began to vote Democrat. Somehow, I find it hard to believe that this was a coincidence, as she was made the Leo Gottlieb Professor of Law at Harvard University at the exact same time. So now, she was now a full-fledged, radical, feminist “believer.”
Scott Brown
By 2011, Warren was no longer content to spread feminist ideology, just to the young. She decided to expand her sphere of influence and enter politics. She chose to run, as a Democrat, for one of the two U.S. Senate seats in Massachusetts. This race would be against Republican Senator Scott Brown, who won a special election in 2010 to complete the remainder of the term of deceased Ted Kennedy.
Unfortunately, the highly touted Scott Brown, who was the first Republican elected to the U. S. Senate from Massachusetts since 1972, blew his credibility when he crossed party lines on many major issues. He voted for the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” the START Treaty and a $13 billion payroll-tax exemption for employers willing to hire unemployed workers.
Brown also voted against Republican Paul Ryan’s plan to overhaul Medicare. And then voted to support taxpayer funding for Planned Parenthood and the two month extension of unemployment benefits.  All of which a majority of Republicans, especially the leadership, opposed. As a result, Brown’s strong support from the Tea Party, in his 2010 bid for Kennedy’s seat, all but disappeared and Warren won the 2012 election by a margin of 53% to 47%.

Elizabeth Warren and her husband Bruce Mann
Warren’s campaign would begin to expose her devious nature and her inability to stick with the truth.
1.  It began with her daughter, Amelia Warren Tyagi’s, efforts to manipulate the race. Her company, Demos.org sued the state of Massachusetts to enforce the National Voter Registration Act. The state settled and mailed voter registration forms to welfare recipients. Sen. Brown claimed this was done to boost Democrat voter numbers and to increase the turnout for Warren.

Pauline Reed Herring and her daughter Elizabeth
2.  Then it was revealed that she had lied on employment forms and law teaching directories when she claimed to have Native American (Cherokee and Delaware) ancestry on her mother’s (Pauline Reed Herring) side of the family. It would soon be shown that her claims were based only on family lore and that there was no documentation, or evidence, to prove her assertions. In fact, no one who attended her mother’s funeral in 1995, or her three older brothers, or her two children have come forward to corroborate Ms. Warren’s, “I’m a minority. Give me special treatment”, story.
3.  Warren also took liberties with the truth when she claimed to be the “first nursing mother to take a bar exam in the state of New Jersey.” Oh please. How pathetic that she resorts to fabrications on this low level. She reminds me of Texas gubernatorial candidate Sen. Wendy Davis’s pathetic pattern of inconsequential lies.
4.  Once elected, Warren’s one-sided, radical, second-wave feminist views on capitalism, and the Christian businessmen whose monumental efforts sustain it, would continue to color her politics when she was quoted as saying – “You Didn’t Built It.”
“I hear all this, you know, ‘Well, this is class warfare, this is whatever.’ No. There is nobody in this country who got rich on his own — nobody. You built a factory out there? Good for you. But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on the roads the rest of us paid for. You hired workers the rest of us paid to educate. You were safe in your factory because of police-forces and fire-forces that the rest of us paid for. You didn’t have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory — and hire someone to protect against this — because of the work the rest of us did. Now look, you built a factory and it turned into something terrific, or a great idea. God bless — keep a big hunk of it. But part of the underlying social contract is, you take a hunk of that and pay forward for the next kid who comes along.”
Obviously, every American is provided with those same “advantages” and yet very few men are capable of creating a thriving, successful business. And their success has nothing to do with the roads and everything to do with the talent, tenacity, trustworthiness, character, ambition, honesty and the drive each man brings to his business every day! Only a radical, second-wave feminist, who has been trained to abhor strong men in general, and strong, successful, Christian men in particular, could come to such an outlandish, irrational, and socialist conclusion.
Bill Gates – Microsoft
Donald Trump
Steve Jobs – Apple
5.  Now lets talk about Warren’s minimum wage IQ. I can’t even decipher her twisted views on this topic. But basically she thinks that the minimum wage should be around $22.00 per hour, based on “economic developments” since the 1960s. And since it’s only $7.25, she claims the missing $14.75 was “stolen” by those baaaadd male employers. If you want to torture yourself with her reasoning, click here Realclearpolitics.com
Larry Summers
6.  Now let’s move on to why the Catholic Church will never allow women to become priests. Simply put, women can’t keep a confidence. And Ms. Warren’s stunning, and naive revelation, about her conversation with Larry Summers, shows that she doesn’t even know enough to keep a confidence (given to her as a newbie) by very big “insider”. The very same Larry Summers, who at the time was the director of the National Economic Council and a top economic adviser to President Obama. She wrote the following in her book:
“After dinner, “Larry leaned back in his chair and offered me some advice. I had a choice. I could be an insider or I could be an outsider. Outsiders can say whatever they want. But people on the inside don’t listen to them. Insiders, however, get lots of access and a chance to push their ideas. People — powerful people — listen to what they have to say. But insiders also understand one unbreakable rule: They don’t criticize other insiders.”
Granted, I’m not the least bit impressed with Mr. Summers legacy, but, as a Progressive, Ms. Warren should be. So, why did she do it?
Well, being a feminist first, this deliberate betrayal has to have its roots in radical feminism once again. Hummm? But, of course! This Larry Summers is the very same Larry Summers who was ousted as President of Harvard (while Ms. Warren was employed there) because he had the unmitigated gall to speak the truth about the statistical disparity between men and women and their mathematical abilities. This is what he said while speaking at the National Bureau of Economic Research conference in 2005:
“It does appear that on many, many different human attributes—height, weight, propensity for criminality, overall IQ, mathematical ability, scientific ability—there is relatively clear evidence that whatever the difference in means—which can be debated—there is a difference in the standard deviation, and variability of a male and a female population.”
Remember, radical feminists are feminists first and foremost and they reserve their greatest ire for those who refuse to maintain the smoke screen of lies surrounding their ideology, especially when it comes to the radical feminist high jinx, concerning the “equality of the sexes.” Mr. Summers overlooked this little detail and now we know why Warren threw him under the bus.
7.  Now for her claim that interest rates on government issued student loans are “morally wrong.” Despite Ms. Warren’s claim that she is a consumer finance expert, she fails to connect the dots on the simple fact that if the kids, who take out the loans, don’t pay something for the privilege, the taxpayers will have to pick up the slack! AGAIN! Considering the fact that, even with the kids interest payments included, the government’s student loan “program” is already one billion dollars in debt, Warren’s comment is upside-down, off-the-charts, socialist, STUPID!
8. In her misguided efforts to get the minimum wage raised again, Warren tweeted that it “no longer keeps a mom and her baby out of poverty.” What? It never kept single mothers (aka. radical feminists) out of poverty because it was never intended to support a mother and her children. Moms and their children are not a viable economic unit under any circumstances. That’s why God invented fathers! The minimum wage was originally intended for entry-level jobs for unskilled teenagers, period. And for Warren to claim otherwise is just plain dishonest (something at which she excels).
Sen. Elizabeth Warren
It is rumored that Warren is considering a run for the Presidency in 2016. She better reconsider because there’s just too many of her own quotes to use against her. Shall we continue?
The following is a list of more preposterous quotes from Warren which were put together by thedailybanter.com in 2013.
1. “People feel like the system is rigged against them, and here is the painful part, they’re right. The system is rigged.” (It is rigged against average people – by politicians like radical feminist, and socialist, Elizabeth Warren. kqd)
2. “If there had been a Financial Product Safety Commission in place 10 years ago, the current financial crisis would have been averted.” (OMG. What a simpleton. The financial crisis was deliberately caused by financial ditz’ s Sen. Chuck Schumer, Sen. Chris Dodd and Rep. Barney Frank (Heads of Federal Banking Committee) who relaxed the banking regs which caused a feeding frenzy in the industry.kqd)
Sen. Chuck Schumer, 64 NY
Sen. Chris Dodd – Conn, (D)
Rep. Barney Frank – Mass. (D)
3. “You built a factory out there, good for you. But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on the roads that the rest of us paid for. You hired workers that the rest of us paid to educate. You were safe in your factory because of police forces and fire forces that the rest of us paid for.” (Duh, again. kqd)
4. “Look around. Oil companies guzzle down the billions in profits. Billionaires pay a lower tax rate than their secretaries, and Wall Street CEOs, the same ones the direct our economy and destroyed millions of jobs still strut around Congress, no shame, demanding favors, and acting like we should thank them. Does anyone here have a problem with that?” (WHAT? Radical feminist ideology again. Capitalists don’t destroy jobs, they create them!!! Plus, they are the primary supply line for the taxes on which the government functions! What an arrogant dope! kqd)
75,000 employees
255,000 employees
4,700 gas stations
5. “I do not understand how it is that financial institutions could think that they could take taxpayer money and then turn around and act like it’s business as usual. I don’t understand how they can’t see that the world has changed in a fundamental way, that it is not business as usual when you take taxpayer dollars.” (Well, maybe this would be true, if it weren’t for the fact that the incompetent, meddling GOVERNMENT REGULATORS initiated the meltdown that the banking industry endured. kqd)
Sen. Chuck Schumer, 64 NY
Sen. Chris Dodd – Conn, (D)
Rep. Barney Frank – Mass. (D)
Mitt Romney – Former Massachusetts Governor, Christian and co-founder of Bain Capitol Investment Firm
6. “Mitt Romney is the guy who said corporations are people. No, Governor Romney, corporations are not people.” (OK. I’m not even going to respond to this totally absurd comment. kqd)
7. “You didn’t have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything in your factory and hire someone to protect against this because of the work the rest of us did.” (A repeat. For radical, second-wave feminists, the “battle” never ends – radical feminist vs. Christian men, over and over again. kqd)
8. “In a democracy, hostage tactics are the last resort for those who can’t win their fights through elections, can’t win their fights in Congress, can’t win their fights for the presidency, and can’t win their fights in the courts. For this right-wing minority, hostage taking is all they have left, a last gasp for those who cannot cope with the realities of our democracy.” (Hostage tactics? Cannot cope with the realities of our democracy? Come on. I don’t think so. Warren and her ilk are the ones who are trashing democracy. It’s very difficult to win when the system is rigged against the productive Christian businessmen, by influential lesbian-led, radical, second-wave feminists, like political hack Ms. Warren, and her socialist cohorts, who are in cahoots with atheists like the vindictive, litigious Atty. Mikey Weinstein. It’s time for Christian men to FIGHT BACK. kqd)
9. “If you’re caught with an ounce of cocaine, the chances are good you’re going to jail….Evidently, if you launder nearly a billion dollars for drug cartels and violate our international sanctions, your company pays a fine and you go home and sleep in your own bed at night.” (Only if he’s, i.e. a friend of Democrat Eric Holder/Bill Clinton. kqd)
Eric Holder
Bill Clinton
Marc Rich
10. “Nobody’s safe. Health insurance? That didn’t protect 1 million Americans who were financially ruined by illness or medical bills last year.” (OMG! Alert! Alert! Nobody’s safe! – The truth is that nobody’s safe because radical, second-wave feminist Elizabeth Warren is roaming the halls of Congress and, the truth is, she knows EXACTLY what she’s up to! Beware. If the Christian men don’t stop her soon, she’ll throw us all under the bus! kqd) Current EVEntS – Radical, Second-Wave Feminist Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Mass (D) – Just Doesn’t Get It, or Does She? U. S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, 64 - Massachusetts Democrat Ms. Warren is another influencial radical, second-wave feminist who thrives on irrational lies and is incapable of connecting-the-dots in order to determine the falsehoods that underpin her bizarre assumptions.

Right : A just claim or title, whether legal, prescriptive, or moral which is due to anyone by just claim, legal guarantees, moral principles
Privilege : a right or immunity granted as a peculiar benefit, advantage, or favor : prerogative
  The concept of “Privilege” was forcibly impressed across western societies by the Elite. it started in their Ivy league schools. Then it was downloaded through the rest of the university system and now reaches into our primary schools.
Privilege can been framed in terms of your race, your physical ability and appearance, the language you speak or any other characteristic those wielding it wish to apply. The Ideology is designed expressly for balkanizing society into ever smaller designated groups , each pitted against each other to earn or remove the “Privilege” of exercising rights that are actually theirs inherently.
It is enforced daily though main stream media and entertainment. It is enforced in every businesses and bureaucratic office in the land by the humorless enforcers of “diversity” units now mandatory in all organized societal activity.  Any who dare to question its precepts are labelled “racist” “right wing” or the now meaningless epithet “Nazi”.
Privilege Ideology purports to be about righting historical injustice and creating a “More Just and Equitable world”. Its real purpose is the polar opposite.
By framing the full enjoyment of basic rights as “Privilege” this dark ideology’s sole aim is to normalize the idea that the Rights we enjoy are held from someone and can then be naturally removed at will.
Human progress toward tolerant pluralistic societies was made possible by the acceptance of the idea that no one should be judged for any inherent trait. Privilege turns this on its head insisting vehemently that your Race, Sexuality, level of physical ability, are no longer immutable and inherent traits of an individual that should not be used to judge their character, or likely behavior.  Instead they are all signs of Privilege.
Tumblr media
If you possess traits that the new modern Machiavellian Caste system deems unworthy then those of the approved Caste may destroy your livelihood, your children’s sense of self worth destroy your possessions and even take your life and be utterly correct under the new morality imparted by Privilege theory.
https://twitter.com/3TW_3470/status/1267887412480544768
Instead of casting the full enjoyment of full democratic , social and economic rights as the norm and ensuring every member of society experiences this norm everything becomes a race to the bottom. Those that enjoy the “privilege” of their full rights must divest them. Your right to speech, employment, education and belief are subsumed to the ideology. Any deviation is brutally enforced by the Intersectional Inquisition, as Wendy Mesley recently learned.
Thought itself is the next step.
As I write this only those who comply to the Ideologies of privilege and victim hood are allowed to gather in their thousands without being legally sanctioned.  No one who is not part of the selected ideological caste may visit their elderly, celebrate any life events with friends and family or gather for any event of our actual culture or societal heritage. In Nova Scotia the families of those gunned down in a horrible massacre recently were not allowed to bury their dead. This was always the goal.
Tumblr media
Privilege ideology has created a generation that truly believes they somehow are undeserving of their own basic rights. Centuries of struggle and progress toward our relatively short experiment in human freedom and full franchise democracy are under threat.
   This very deliberate conditioning has been drilled into the children of the West for a decade in Universities and schools. Any faculty or administrators that question are purged.
Lowrey boils her views on feminism down to a few key ideas: men cannot get pregnant, lesbians don’t have penises and that biological sex is real. She has in the past written for Feminist Current, a feminist blog headed by Meghan Murphy and had a sign on her office door explaining her views.”
Read more…
   The message has been repeated ad nauseam by the media. Constant repetition of a theme is key to ideological conditioning
This was not a matter these ideas welling up organically from the society they were inserted by the same corporate and oligarchical actors that inserted it into the education system. The steep rise you see here is manufactured
Instead of appreciating the hard earned democratic and social rights of the most pluralistic democracy the world has ever known Canada’s youth have been conditioned to believe these Rights are “Privileges” granted by their technocratic betters.
Tumblr media
Think of what perfect preparation for the “covid lockdown” Privilege has been. The idea that the exercise of your rights is inherently evil because it may “harm” a “marginalized ” group has been used to lockdown half the population of the earth. Whether by chance or design “Privilege ” helped create an intellectual frame where these draconian measures was even remotely possible.
This racist concept is genocidal in its scope with calls to end “whiteness” . Make no mistake this is a call to genocide, and the brainwashed youth are heeding it as we can see in our streets.
The ideology viciously creates a hierarchy of the “other”. Your place in the hierarchy is determined by the edict of academic institutions funded by the Oligarchs and their corporate henchmen. The legacy Private Foundations of the Oligarchs who funded Eugenics and the Nazi Party now fund Social Justice. They will assign you your place.
We must destroy this dark ideology and cast its proselytizers onto the ash-heap of history.
So how do i help fight this you may ask, well good reader:
In Canada the curriculum being taught in K-12 can easily be taken in front of your provincial human rights board. This ideology requires the acceptance of collective guilt and punishment and is almost wholly predicated on advocating hatred toward an identifiable group and culture. Most Human Rights boards in Canada must pro forma accept complaints. File often.
The Ideology is also in contravention of the Genocide Convention, which is also Canadian criminal Law
  File a notice of criminal complaint with your local crown prosecutor against your provincial ministry and minister of education for incitement to genocide.
Occupy our schools and Universities. Attend your children’s classes, if they resist legally force them to allow you.
Begin class action Law suits against Teachers professional Organizations and Unions. They ceaselessly talk about redistributing wealth , lets redistribute their billion dollar pension funds.
Use the Freedom of speech your ancestors died for, speak out , hold public meetings. Confront the “activists” who enforce this discipline in their communities and workplaces.
Demand that Local police and Courts stop enforcing Ideology in place of the Law.
  William Ray
    The Foul Lie and Draconian Purpose of “Privilege” Theory Right : A just claim or title, whether legal, prescriptive, or moral which is due to anyone by just claim,

This ones a lil bit slow but last Tuesday we went to see Captain Marvel, we ended up going to the 10pm showing and I was surprised that there was only a hand full of ppl there not counting the ppl I was with but I figured the majority of the ppl were probably at the 9:30 show. also I was super happy that yes they did have cups and buckets! you can see them here http://naughtygirl286.tumblr.com/post/183557649895/the-theater-exclusive-collectors-cup-and-popcorn
also they did have alot of stuff there for this they had Funko pop figures, a variety of key chains, some change/coin purses and even oddly enough Captain Marvel Socks! lol but I just stuck with my Cup and Bucket :)
But as for the movie itself I would have to say it was pretty great! I don't see what the problem ppl are have with it is. the movie is pretty cool and had humor and nice action and I did feel it had alot of heart in alot of places.
I in fact am happy it didn't turn out how I thought it would and was actually really enjoyable.
I loved the Stan Lee opening logo he deserved that and so much more and I like how they put the "THANK YOU STAN" after it which was awesome! also his Cameo in the movie was good with him reading the Mallrats script I had to laugh at that.
I would have to say I did like Jude Law in this as Yon-Rogg I originally from the first trailer thought he was going to be Mar-Vell being that in the comics and other media Mar-Vell was a guy which of course at the time made sense to me but that is not how it turned out he in turn was cast as Yon-Rogg which made a bit more sense in the scope of the movie and Mar-Vell was someone different and it was quite the twist being that they gender swapped Dr. Walter Lawson aka Mar-Vell to Annette Bening as Dr. Wendy Lawson aka Mar-Vell. I kinda don't like stuff like this being I like to kinda have things similar to the comics but then again this of course take place in a parallel world separate to the Comics 616 so I could accept it and not much more was changed I felt   the origin as a whole was similar enough so the comics that it worked in the movies story.
Now as for Brie Larson herself I can't say I have anything against her and I thought she did really good in this I think alot of the humor came from her and the situations she was put in in the movie and as for how she played the character   it seems to have been like this conflict between her humanity and who she was vs. Who she is and was told who she had to be which was interesting. but the one thing I didn't like her doing is like going on rants or whatever on the press tours saying stuff like White Men are Evil and going on about how you hate men and don't want them watching the movie and all that stuff. Thats not right! you have to sell this movie to everyone and be like everyone is welcome and go see it! you can't be talking down to ppl when you need them to go see your stuff Like take Wonder Woman as a good example that in my opinion was marked towards everyone and you didn't see Gal Gadot bad mouthing anyone on the press tour like everyone sees Brie Larson as some kind of hateful monster but I think she should take some pointers from Gal Gadot on how to act when on the press tours.
I did like the Fury/Captain Marvel relationship  I felt they had really good chemistry and alot of the humor in the movie comes from them bouncing off of each other with lots of good quips and jabs and joking comments they were a good pair on screen
Also yes another I guess you would say "actor" that stole the show is of course Goose the Cat and I have to say alot of his stuff was also both cute and funny
Also being that this take place long before Iron Man and we get to see a some what young Nick Furry we find out why he is close to Agent Coulson as well as how he loses his eye which of course is not the same as in the comics
One thing I loved about it was they introduced the Kree/Skrull war into the Cinematic Universe which I was excited about and was happy to see them do that being it is kind of a big deal in the Comics Universe and I have to say I loved the look of the Skrulls the make-up and everything was perfect!! I even like the shapeshifting visual effect   but the only thing that I kinda didn't like was that they made the Skrulls more like a sympathetic character in this when they are more villainous in the comics and that is what I was kinda looking forward to seeing.
Now I also heard alot of ppl saying this this movie promotes the hatred of men I can honestly say I didn't feel it did? true there were I guess you some jokes at Fury's expense and maybe men in general but I can't say they were "Man Hating" ones also there was a scene with a biker shortly after Captain Marvel arrives on Earth where he tells her to smile which I rolled my eyes at that being that is a reference to the "street harassment" uber feminist always claim they experience every minute of every day. The one thing I didn't like tho was the choice of music in this at times like in the pretty much the "End Battle" where she's fighting off Jude Law's Yon-Rogg and the other Kree Soliders the No Doubt song "Just A Girl" is blaring in the background it feels forced, out of place and just doesn't fit the scene and just feels like it is this over the top song for this moment they could have put any other song in there and it would have been a better choice. I just feel that this was a overtly Feminist choice and I have to say this sequence was ruined by feminism! lol but seriously I didn't feel that this promoted hatred of men, but if you want to see one I would suggest the 2016 Ghostbusters that movie blatantly flaunted its hatred of men
But anyway I thought the visual Effects were pretty good and Now after seeing this what Fury said at the end of the first Iron Man kinda takes on a bit of a different meaning now.
and Yes there is a mid credits scene that kinda deals with Avengers: End Game and then there is a end credits scene that is kinda funny that deals with Goose the Cat
but in the end I thought it was pretty great sure there were alot of good things about it and some bad things but I think it balances out. So if you want to go see it then go see it, the only opinion on this movie that matters is your own.

A Movie-able Feast Criterion Channel Has a Smorgasbord of Great Food Movies Right Now added to Google Docs
A Movie-able Feast Criterion Channel Has a Smorgasbord of Great Food Movies Right Now
 Photo-illustration: Eater
From ramen adventure “Tampopo” to the sinful meals of “Babette’s Feast,” these streaming movies will leave you hungry
In 2018, when it was announced that FilmStruck would shut down, cinephiles (myself included) let out a collective wail — and with good reason: it was the exclusive home of The Criterion Collection. Amid the outcry, Criterion and former corporate parent Warner Bros. carved out a deal that would allow the films on FilmStruck to be made available through the Criterion Channel. Since its debut last year, the platform has boasted an impressive rotation of programming, as well as access to its permanent collection.
As many of us continue to shelter in place, we increasingly miss the things that make us happy, from dining out to traveling. But if you let it, a movie can scratch that itch, or at least get close. The beauty of the Criterion Collection is that its curated films are guaranteed to delight. You can marvel at the grandeur and energy of New York City, observe sweeping romances set in Italy, follow a family’s adventures in Taipei, and more from the comfort of your couch. And if you’re feeling famished, you can indulge in a sensory meal, too. While no platform is without its share of food movies (you can watch Eat Drink Man Woman on Amazon Prime and Fantastic Mr. Fox is scheduled to debut on Disney+ later this month), I believe that Criterion Channel is the best hub offering a consistent number of works that glorify food on film. Here now is a list of the best food movies on the platform:
Babette’s Feast (1988)
Babette’s Feast is a celebration of cooking and what it means to be a cook. Set in a small village on the desolate coast of 19th century Denmark, the film follows sisters Martina And Philippa over the course of several decades. As the daughters of a devout clergyman who preached salvation through self-denial, the two sisters sacrificed everything to faith and duty, keeping their father’s teachings alive long after his death. But with the arrival of Babette, a French refuge of the Paris Commune, life in the village begins to change.
Best food scene: Apologies in advance for not picking the titular feast, but watching the arrival of Babette’s ingredients in the days leading up to the meal is just fantastic. The white-haired villagers can only watch in horror as Babette leads a procession of red wine, live quails, and more exotic ingredients to her kitchen. For years, these people have denied themselves countless pleasures and the thought of indulging in this meal (Martine refers to it as a “witch’s sabbath”) means exposing themselves to dangerous forces (turtle soup! caviar blini! cake!) that may bring evil upon them. It makes the events that unfold over the course of Babette’s feast that much more delightful to watch.
Daisies (1966)
Vera Chytilovà’s Daisies is considered one of the great works of feminist cinema — and it’s as relevant today as it was more than 50 years ago on its release. The absurdist farce follows the adventures of two dangerously bored young women, Marie I and Marie II, who set out to create mischief because the world is ruined and values are worthless. What follows is a series of strange but delightful pranks, including a number of dinner dates with stale old men, during which they insult them while eating a lot of food.
Best food scene: The two Maries, in search of nourishment, stumble upon a feast. They indulge in the finest of foods and then — food fight! The scene is no more than three minutes but it escalates from pastries flying across the room to the Maries destroying the banquet hall and dancing on the table, pressing their high heels into roast chickens.
Garlic is as Good as Ten Mothers (1980)
It is a truth universally acknowledged that the base to all good food is garlic. Without it, you don’t bring out the true flavor of food. Les Blank’s mouthwatering documentary, Garlic Is as Good as Ten Mothers, is a love letter to the stinking rose. Featuring interviews from Chez Panisse owner Alice Waters to members of the garlic appreciation society Lovers of the Stinking Rose, Blank’s documentary is a 50-minute foray into the history and consumption of garlic in the United States.
Best food scene: The documentary is intercut with a variety of cooking scenes. My favorite one features legendary Flamenco dancer and singer Anzonini del Puerto, who prepares sausage links from start to finish. Closeups of each step — cloves of garlic grinded repeatedly in a mortar and pestle, ground beef hand mixed with vibrant spices and red wine — guided by the sounds of a flamenco band in the background will leave you feeling hungry.
Life Is Sweet (1990)
Mike Leigh’s bittersweet comedy is a portrait of working class malaise in suburban London and at the center of it all is a loving family of four. Andy is a cook who purchases a rundown food truck from his drinking buddy on a whim and his wife, Wendy, is sensibly skeptical. Their twin daughters have varying opinions: Natalie thinks it’s fine as long as it makes him happy while Nicola dismisses the idea. If you’re looking for something wonderfully optimistic, this is it.
Best food scene: The disastrous opening of family friend Aubrey’s the Regret Rien, a French restaurant promising “tres exclusive” fare. Oh yeah, it’s as bad as it sounds.
The Secret of the Grain (2007)
At the center of Abdellatif Kechiche’s film is a story that explores the modern day immigrant experience. Slimane Beiji is the divorced patriarch of a Franco-Arabic family living in Sete. After being forced out of his job at the local shipyard, he is determined to leave his family a legacy and follows his dream of opening a port side restaurant — a meeting place where members of their community can gather — that specializes in his ex-wife’s fish couscous, a meal that she prepares for her friends and family every Sunday. What follows is a restaurant opening that becomes a family affair.
Best food scene: The last 40 minutes of this film — the night of the restaurant’s soft opening — is incredible. When the screen finally cuts to black, you will sit there wondering what happens to these characters the morning after. I’m still thinking about it.
Still Walking (2008)
Hirokazu Kore-eda’s gentle, human drama Still Walking follows the Yokoyama family over the course of one summer day as they gather for a commemorative ritual to mark the anniversary of the death of the eldest son, Junpei. Unlike the narratives of most family reunion dramas (A Christmas Tale, Rachel Getting Married), Still Walking isn’t particularly eventful. While there is an undeniable cloud of melancholy, the Yokoyamas do not exchange explosive accusations or drop any bombshells. Rather than focus on big dramatic moments, Kore-eda relies on simple moments (looking through old family photos, cooking and eating together) to paint his portrait of a grieving family.
Best food scene: When the family prepares corn tempura together, the sound of batter sizzling in oil reaches the far corners of the house and the grandchildren come running into the kitchen to indulge in their grandmother’s cooking.
Tampopo (1985)
The premise of Juzo Itami’s Tampopo is simple: Two Japanese drivers help a restaurant owner learn how to cook great ramen — but the overall film is one hell of a ride. On the surface, Tampopo plays like a satire of Clint Eastwood’s spaghetti Westerns, but deep down it’s a surreal yet heartwarming exploration of the human appetite and the joys of nourishment. Make sure the volume is up nice and high because many of these scenes are ASMR at its finest
Best food scene: Tampopo’s narrative is interspersed with a number of stories, each one exploring a character’s relationship with food. The focus of one of these stories is a young gangster and his mistress. For this couple, food plays an important role in the bedroom. You might be wondering, “Like whipped cream?” Sure, they use whipped cream. But in perhaps the most erotic food scene ever filmed, the two pass a raw yolk from his mouth to hers back and forth until, finally, it bursts.

Instead of telling women who could get pregnant not to drink, try trusting them

Say it together now: Women know their bodies. Women can be trusted with their bodies.
It’s not every day that a reputable study comes along to support these obvious truths, given that women, of course, still routinely hear patronizing messages including from the medical community about things like menstruation, birth control, abortion and childbirth.
Now a new study provides strong evidence that medical guidelines issued last year about pregnancy and alcohol use underestimated women.

The research, published Thursday in Obstetrics and Gynecology,essentially finds that women actually know how to make decisions about their bodies. The study was spurred by controversial recommendations issued last year by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which advised women planning to get pregnant and sexually active women who don’t use effective contraception not to drink alcohol because of the chance of a fetus developing fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs).
The blowback was mighty, with critics arguing the recommendations could basically apply to all women capable of conceiving. The logic of the guidance also implied that women might not change their alcohol use once learning they were expecting, so they shouldn’t drink at all.
Though there are debates about the effects of moderate versus heavy drinking during pregnancy, the CDC states that there is no safe time to drink during pregnancy, nor a safe amount.
The controversy caught the attention of Katherine Hartmann, deputy director of the Institute for Medicine and Public Health at Vanderbilt University. An obstetrician and researcher, she’d already been conducting a study on early pregnancy that happened to include information on alcohol use. So she took a second look at her data to see if women continued to use alcohol during pregnancy.
Lo and behold, she found the opposite. More than half of all women reported that they drank in their first trimester, but ninety percent of them stopped once realizing they were pregnant. Even most who kept indulging quickly reduced their intake from two drinks a week to less than one.
Overall, women who planned their pregnancies had 31 percent lower odds of drinking around the time of conception and during early pregnancy compared to women who’d become unexpectedly pregnant.
“I take heart that this data tells me women are aware of their bodies,” Hartmann said. “They are making good decisions … We just found it so heartening that behavior immediately changed.”
When Hartmann took a closer look at those who continued to drink, she made a surprising discovery. Women who were older, white, college-educated, made more money and were pregnant with their first child, were the most likely to throw one back.
“I take heart that this data tells me women are aware of their bodies.”
That’s important because the CDC’s recommendations hinted that some women weren’t being careful enough, and in the history of moralizing about motherhood, it’s often low-income, women of color who are the targets for such blame.
While Hartmann’s study isn’t nationally representative she used a demographically diverse sample of 5,036 women from eight communities in three states her findings provide the basis for some real talk about who may be at most risk.
Women younger than 21 also used alcohol while pregnant, and though rare in the sample, episodes of binge drinking were associated with being younger, unmarried, a past or current smoker and using illicit drugs.
The solution to the larger problem of preventing FASDs, says Hartmann, isn’t to unrealistically expect tens of millions of women of reproductive age to stop drinking because they might get pregnant. A more strategic approach to reduce drinking and the risk of FASDs would be to target the six million women who are planning pregnancies or having sex without contraception with more practical interventions.
Since women appear to stop or reduce alcohol consumption once they see a positive pregnancy test, Hartmann says it would be wise to emphasize testing as early as possible.
So if you’re hoping to get pregnant but still nursing that glass of pinot at the end of the day, don’t put off peeing on a stick if your period doesn’t arrive on time. The same approach goes for women who aren’t planning a pregnancy but have sex without reliable contraception and miss a period.
An obvious policy solution, says Hartmann, is ensuring that every woman has access to affordable birth control. She also urges physicians to ditch their preconceived notions about who might be more likely to drink during pregnancy and instead screen all of their patients.
The CDC, which reviewed Hartmann’s study Thursday, said in a statement that the agency “encourages women to talk to their healthcare provider about their plans for pregnancy, their alcohol use, and ways to prevent pregnancy if they are not planning to get pregnant.”
Wendy Kline, the who researches the history of medicine at Purdue University, criticized the CDC’s guidelines last year but welcomed the conclusions made by Hartmann and her co-authors.
“In general, I think this is a more intelligent response.”
“In general, I think this is a more intelligent response,” says Kline, who was not involved in the new study.
As for why some white, educated, middle-class women may not strictly follow the guidelines after learning of their pregnancy, Kline speculates that could be a “political act” rooted in their belief of reproductive choice. In other words, they may see it as preserving their individual autonomy versus being reduced to an incubator.
For those women, exercising their personal rights could include having a glass of wine at the end of a stressful day without being made to feel guilty. They may also see high-profile debates over the science of drinking during pregnancy, or look at European women who drink moderately without fear of FASDs, and feel like the risk is overstated.
Regardless of their rationale, Hartmann’s study is an important reminder that women can act quickly and decisively when it comes to drinking during pregnancy, and public health officials might consider coming up with messages that show more trust in their ability to do just that.
