some people really need to understand that there’s a difference between saying ‘they’re a good character’ and ‘they’re a good person’

THE OLD GUARD (2020) dir. Gina Prince-Bythewood

Sometimes you ship villains because you like their dynamic. Other times, you ship villains because you like the "power couple" trope, or because their aesthetics complement each other, or maybe because even the nastiest scumbags of this world deserve to be loved.

But sometimes, sometimes you ship villains for the sweet, sadistic joy of taking a horrible bastard without a single redeeming quality in sight, ripping his chest open with your bare hands, grabbing his shrivelled up husk of a heart, and forcing it to feel.

Just a simple PSA

Say whatever you want about Zack Snyder, like his work or don’t, but the man is known to always *always* try to cultivate a positive environment on his sets. He’s friendly with his actors, friendly with his crew, isn’t afraid to listen to them and hear their ideas. He’s a genuinely kind person. I mean, there’s a reason so many people LOVE working with him.

And for the past *seven years* he’s been trashed to hell and back because he dared to make a Superman movie some people didn’t like. His family went through the worst kind of tragedy and not only did the bloggers and detractors celebrate it, but they also mocked his attempts to get his true vision of Justice League released after the studios slapped his name on a product that wasn’t even his. Can you imagine being so full of hatred that you have no problem slandering a man’s name if it means him not getting his hands on your favorite fictional characters and then having the NERVE to complain about “tOxIcItY” because he fought for his movie and won?

And now, surprise, surprise, people are finally coming out to talk more openly about the nightmare that was the Justice League production under Whedon’s direction. The man came in as the unwanted director no one wished to work with and instead of being respectful of the situation and trying his best to preserve the work that had been done prior to his arrival, Whedon openly trash talked the director whose movie he was about to destroy and treated everyone on sets like shit. And y'all so desperate to cling onto some delusional and twisted narrative about Snyder that you’re willing to call everyone and their mothers liars instead of admitting that maybe, just *maybe* you could have been wrong.

Amy Adams didn’t even attend the premiere. Ray Fisher was accused of “cloud chasing” for speaking up. Gal and Ezra downright refused to shoot some scenes for Joss. Jason Momoa has always supported Zack. Ben Affleck left because he didn’t want to go through another production from hell and wasn’t in the right state of mind to defend his movie. Henry Cavill had his face literally butchered for the world to see. Junkie XL’s score was thrown to the trash to make place for nostalgia. Etc. Etc. ETC.

Zack Snyder and his cast and crew didn’t deserve this. Fuck you all so much for pretending for so long that they did.

The Anti-Christ came and went, but no one noticed because he wasn’t worse than the current state of the world already is. The rapture followed, but no one went to Heaven, so we didn’t notice that either. We’ve been living in Hell for the last 5 years, and no one has noticed, yet.

Am I wet? Am I on my period? Did I pee my pants?- next on wtf is going on down there.

my therapist: I can't imagine how painful that must have been for you

me: lol so anyway

So, I’ve been pulled over a few times in my life. Not many, but a few. And I’ve also been in a couple of cars that got pulled over. And let me tell you, if you were actually doing something wrong, the officer doesn’t make any small talk, just straight into “I clocked you doing 70 in a 55.” The only time I’ve ever gotten the “do you know why I pulled you over?” was the time when I wasn’t doing anything wrong, and I got let go even though he insisted to the end that I was doing 87 in a 70 (white privilege at work).

“Do you know why I pulled you over?” is a trap. It means there’s a good chance the officer doesn’t actually have a good reason to ticket you, and is trying to get you to waive your 5th Amendment rights and incriminate yourself. If you make a guess, that’s a confession of guilt.

But there’s another trap, that I’ve heard of but haven’t yet experienced. It’s “do you know how fast you were going?” With that one, they’re hoping you’ll say no, because then they can name whatever speed they want – you just said you didn’t know how fast you were going, if you deny the speed they name then you’re lying to them.

This about the sandwich?

No matter what a post on tumblr tries to tell you, your moral and ethical stances will never be determined by what you reblog and what you scroll past. Don’t let manipulation tactics force you into doing anything you don’t want to do.

Pretty sure the overlap between people who don’t wear masks and the people who don’t use their fucking turn signal is a circle.

I hope Wikipedia doesnt go bankrupt it will feel like the end times . I think I will literally panic

hatred of terfs isn't a love for trans women, hatred of nazis isn't a love for jewish people, hatred of the police isn't a love for black people. you should always be emphasising your support and love for the oppressed before you talk about your hatred of the oppressor.

posting my writing always feels as if i threw a stone at someone’s window and ran away

on the bus home a random dude started talking to this lady who was minding her own business like "hey you're wearing a mask" and she was like "I sure am, why aren't you" and he said "I don't need one, it's too hot out there" and she said, I swear to you, in a tone that somehow managed to be humorous yet pointed, "it'd be hotter in hell"

she is my hero

oh i am ABSOLUTELY messed up but it did make me funny
