Kamala apologizing for potential copyright infringement for basing her codename off of Carol’s is way funnier when you remember it wasn’t even Carol’s to start with

In the universe of the film, there is ABSOLUTELY a contingent of fans that fervently ship Argylle/Wyatt and have the dominant ship on AO3 and trade elaborate fan theories about their hidden relationship and are convinced they’re meant to be endgame but the publishers won’t allow it. Of course, they go totally BALLISTIC when they learn they’re based on the author and her boyfriend.

#argylle #argylle spoilers #my only real complaint with argylle is that we were robbed of a henry cavill/john cena kiss #there’s so much fun to be had with the universe of this film especially in regards to the book fandom #i like to believe aidan stirs up ship drama on fandom forums and social media #the minute rachel’s spy past gets declassified it’s OVER for her in fandom lol #i can appreciate not everyone being into the film’s bait and switch #but i can’t help but love a spy film that lets the female lead be a whole women struggling to define herself #while also kicking ass and having a sweet goofy guy be head over heels for her #this really is the kind of movie that fandom could have soooo much fun with #don’t even get me started on elly/rachel projecting all of her badass spy escapades on a super manly fit dude #like if he’s done everything she’s done…girl memory-holed her own bisexuality lol

Our first teaser for the Six Triple Eight movie was included in Netflix's 2024 upcoming releases promo!!

For those who don't know, the Six Triple Eight is about the 6888th Central Postal Battalion which was the all POC regiment of the Women's Army Corps during World War II. They served in England sorting through the massive backlog of mail that had accumulated. Receiving mail from home was such an important morale boost for the men and high morale wins wars so sorting this mail was a priority. It was a nearly impossible task that the Army predicted would take them years to accomplish but they completed the task in half the time, processing 17 million pieces of mail and sending them to soldiers awaiting news from home. They worked in cold, dirty, dark rat infested aircraft hangars with broken windows. They were so good at their work that the unit was sent to several other areas to do the same thing. The unit was active from 1945 to 1946 and consisted of 855 women under the Command of Major Charity Adams, Captains Mary F. Kearney and Bernice G. Henderson. Their nickname was “Six-Triple Eight" and their motto was “No Mail, Low Morale."

I'm so excited for this film, you have no idea. An entire movie completely focused on telling the story of women. And not just women, black women! It's so exciting! And it looks fantastic just from this short teaser. I know the historical consultant of the show personally and she knows WAC history better than anyone and it definitely shows. The uniforms are pretty perfect. The only mistake I've seen so far, which is in a behind the scenes photo, is the utility bag (their purse) is on the wrong side. But that's a nit picky complaint from me I can overlook. But even the shots are so good!! They're recreating at least one original image I can think of. Which is so cool. God I'm so excited!!!!

Here are some original images of the 6888

"In the mid-1700s, a seawoman in Iceland named Björg Einarsdóttir composed a poem teasing men on her boat for their weak rowing:

Do row better my dear man, Fear not to hurt the ocean. Set your shoulders if you can Into harder motion.

Einarsdóttir was not only a talented poet but an excellent fisher. She often caught more fish than other crew members, and people believed that her ability to lure the animals was supernatural. When she was dying, she reportedly passed on this uncanny skill to a farmer by writing a poem about him catching trout.

Her work at sea may seem unusual. After all, fishing is generally considered a man’s job. But recent work by an American researcher, Margaret Willson, suggests that Einarsdóttir was one of hundreds of Icelandic women in the 18th and 19th centuries who braved towering waves and icy waters to catch fish. Willson’s team combed through historical archives and publications to gather examples ranging from a female captain who led crews made up entirely of women, to expectant mothers who rowed late into pregnancy.

The sea “wasn’t a male space,” says Willson, a cultural anthropologist at the University of Washington in Seattle and a former seawoman. “It was not a feminist act in any way for them to go to sea.” It was just part of everyday life."

I wanna be the woman that everyone stares at whether out of love, hate, or envy. I wanna be the woman who goes for walks every morning with her dog before stopping to grab a quick coffee at a small, cozy café. I wanna be the woman the barista falls in love with at first sight even though I'm a hot, sweaty mess. I wanna be the woman servers want to return every night just to see her. I wanna be the woman who goes to a fine-dinning restaurant by herself because she doesn't need anyone to treat her; she treats herself. I wanna be that woman.

On a conscious level, I am aware this trope has deeply problematic implications. Primally, though, it fucks.

#tv tropes #fandoms all #my life #mine #// #Queercoded villains. Femme Fatale. That thing where some signifier of femininity is ripped away to reveal a terrible monster-something. #Perpetuating the myth of ‘’deviancy’’. Demonizing women’s sexuality. Transphobic. #Way more fun than any other character in the film. Smarter than you+badass & loving it. BOSS MOVE QUEEN!

She’s done!

As part of my new left-handed life I challenged myself to do a standard fantasy character illustration; I produced this through a few hours a night of work over two weeks; I'd guess there's maybe 30 hours of work here total. Nowhere near my usual speed, but a result I am certainly happy with!

Shoutout specifically to procreate and @maxulichney's glorious retro and watercolour brushes; they make messy markmaking fun again!

Gonna print myself a copy for my wall; she is now my patron saint of Relearning Skills with the Non-Dominant Hand Through Sheer Endurance and Liberal Use of the Undo Command.

Fun fact: to sign it, I zoomed in till the signature could fill my 12"ipad screen, wedged the pen into my tightly braced right hand, and used my whole arm to draw it. That's right, folks, my shoulder's still got it!

Mira

I'm watching Monsters Abound play 40k Space Marine. I have not been shy about my general ambivalence toward astartes, but I was curious. And I was rewarded:

Lieutenant Miranda 'Mira' Nero of the Astra Militarum. Instant crush.

I'm sure there is a deeply routed psychological trauma behind the reason for my attraction towards fictional women of authority who could and would kill me, but I think it's probably better if I don't know what it is
