one of my favorite posts of all time is the "o the pelican" one. genuinely a modern classic imo deserves to be in a museum

You know, I love the Marvel movies, but they're doing something wrong that the comics did right. The movies are erasing important, distinctive parts of the characters.

Hawkeye is disabled/deaf in the comics, but not in the movies

Loki is genderfluid, yet we've only seen him as male in the movies

Wanda is Jewish and Romani in the comics, but she's played by a white person (don't get me wrong though I love Elizabeth Olsen and think she's doing a great job) and in Captain America: Civil War, Wanda had crosses on her wall in her room, which are clear Christian symbols

Joe Russo played the MCU's "first openly gay character" in Avengers: Endgame and the representation was so small that it was kind of insulting. Now, having said that, this means Marvel's taking a step in the right direction, but given their track record, I'm afraid they're going to straightwash Billy and Tommy Maximoff (if they grow older than children) like they did with Ayo (Black Panther), Mystique (X-men), and Valkyrie (Thor: Ragnarok). Plus, Billy, at least, isn't just a minor gay character. He and his husband are like THE LGBT icons of the Marvel Universe. They have a whole comic line just dedicated to their wedding.

(Plus, back to the Wanda being Jewish thing, you can clearly see Billy wearing a kippah at his wedding in the second picture, which is a Jewish cap. They did, in fact, have a Jewish wedding in the comics. She raised (or rather didn't????) her kids to be Jewish like her.)

I'm sure there are probably several other characters that have characteristics that are being overlooked that I haven't listed here, but these are just the few that I could think of. All I'm saying is I want more than just Tony's PTSD represented. Because that was also a real problem and I'm not ignoring that Marvel did do a good job of showing that. But I want more than that.

In a world where people can enhanced their bodies through breathing method...

or those who gains power through a deal with the fruits of the devil...

or simply born with quirks...

...this simple story starts with a day after school at the park;

I love Academy AU, this is a silly idea I thought of last night.

In Pilgrim Bell, Kaveh Akbar reaches across languages to write "documents of barbarism."

This is also true with filmmakers. Western filmmakers pan their cameras mostly left to right and Iranian filmmakers do right to left.

@snarkyship much thanks for your sweet comment!!💕Your support is deeply appreciated and I will remember this♡(๑′ᴗ‵๑)♡

I aspire to reach your level as well someday, such gorgeous drawings with accurate anatomy and personality that I can interpret through the screen from the expressions and details- agh it brings tears to my eyes!!

I’ve seen a lot of these supportive things aimed towards girls, but not so much for boys

Sending a lil love their way, too💕

Thinking about how Glinda never really hated that hat. She actually really loved it. It was dear to her. Her granny made it for her and probably played pretend with her, making Glinda’s dreams of becoming a sorceress come true. Glinda was just embarrassed when Pfannee and Shen Shen found it, so she pretended to hate it.

Maybe when she said she didn’t hate anyone that much to give it away, she really meant she didn’t love anyone that much— she didn’t trust anyone to understand how she could love a hat so hideous.

Maybe she knew Elphaba would understand. Maybe she knew Elphaba would take care of it.

And maybe Elphaba proved her right. And now, Glinda gets to admire as the most fearless person she has ever met cherishes her hat as dearly as she did.

you can pry starting sentences with 'and' or 'but' out of my cold, dead hands
