If you can talk up and down until you're blue about the CEO, who was responsible for denying so many people health care by the way, who was shot and say "But his wife and kids, his family!", keep that same energy for the victims and their families of the Madison school shooting that happened recently other than just saying "We're sending our thoughts and prayers," because no one wants to hear it anymore. If you campaign for gun reform regarding the wealthy elite, do the same for students and teachers, or just tell the CEOs the same thing you tell them, that it's just "a way of life."

Little kids will either make or break your day and, sadly, I've been on the latter end more than I count. I'll never forget when I was sick one day during school, and the closest bathroom was the lower grade one, and after coming out of there all I heard from those kids was "That's the girl that threw up." I wanted to end it right then and there.

Rewatching AOS reminds so much of how Marvel fucked up, not only, Steve's storyline and his character arc but Peggy's as well, even if I don't like her like that. Like, they both moved on and had their own lives, but Endgame came and RUINED IT!

Some of y'all were dogging on Sharon and Steve talking about "He kissed his niece!" when she wasn't even that because he and Peggy only went on one date and definitely weren't married but now? Imagine him when Sharon, who is now his actual niece, is born! Like why put him in that situation?

And it's so weird that people say "Let Steve be selfish!" because, while he most definitely should be allowed to address his needs, what Endgame did was something totally different because there's so much weight with that choice that it really outweighs it in the end. He has all the knowledge from before, so he would have to live with that because, by Endgame's rules you can't really change anything and it would just cause a bunch of problems. Also, there's, not only, a version of him still stuck in the ice but also Peggy had a life after him! I'm not sure if she had kids but she definitely moved on, and Steve derailing that isn't something I can't see him doing bc if he knows that Peggy moved on he definitely would not impose himself just for his own sake like----

I've said it once and I'll say again, please understand the meaning an context of certain phrases before you use them, especially when I'm forms of activism. For example, if you are not black or the person you are trying to draw awareness for is not black, please do not use SayHerName as a slogan for your cause. This slogan was purposely created to draw attention to missing or unjustly slain black women who go unnoticed. It's disrespectful to use it outside of its context, especially if it's something trivial like stan culture.

Some yte Glinda stans talking a little too strongly poc fans who don't like or criticize her character for my liking. If they aren't being pretentious, then they're acting downright rude all because they said that their white fave is an opp and uses the system to her benefit, which she does y'all just can't handle the truth!

Wicked is heavily riddled with allegories, and Glinda represents yte feminism, respectability politics, and performative activism and to ignore this or make people seem stupid for pointing these out shows that you're missing the point of both the movie and musical.

Spoilers for Wicked 2024:
            
            
            
            
            Many her relationships in movie felt very transactional, to her benefit. With Elphaba it's very ironic how she only starts being friendly towards her AFTER she finds out that Elphaba put in a good word for her, which is, mind you, after she gave Elphie that hat that she hated and invited her to a party to be embarrassed with it (that Popular sequenced should've included an apology for that shit). A lot of scenes where Elphie is the focus, Glinda inserts herself in which is in character for her, from scenes with Fiyero to her being quite willing to jump on that train and go to Oz. She was definitely wrong for the Boq and Nessa situation too, but for another time. I hate how some infantilize Glinda and act like she doesn't know what she's doing, or is some helpless victim. Glinda literally states in her music that she knows the rules and roles in society and uses it to her benefit, especially to get what she wants (something that she's used to getting). It's okay to admit these things!

If I were to write a Fast and Furious fic, specifically a Brian O'Connor, should it be set during the first or second movie? 

-angxlpurity

If it’s just for one movie/book, set it in the second movie. If you plan on doing more than one movie/book, start from the beginning, in the first movie.

We need to get rid of ChatGPT and AI in general because I'm tired of working my ass off, to the bone, to make a flawless paper and checking every nook and cranny to make sure it's accurately cited, only for my teacher to respond "The AI checker says this piece is AI, so I have to deduct points." Ma'am, AI couldn't come up with that shit if it tried!

@toujoursdk I actually might start doing that when I return for next semester, bc this one class I had kept getting on my nerves because the teacher would occasionally find "ai' but I knew it was wrong & original, but just didn't have the strength to argue by that point it was so frustrating
