The new ghostbusters movie is almost out and it’s super important to keep in mind that even if it does end up being awful, that doesn’t somehow mean that geek culture doesn’t have a huge problem with sexism.

Because, let’s be fucking honest- the backlash and whining over this movie started even before anyone knew a single thing about it besides that it would be an all-female remake. That single detail was enough to make a lot of people angry. That’s what the problem is.

It’s 2016 and I am still trying to figure out why in God’s name so many people hate Ronald Weasley.

Because just-

For a moment, just think.

Harry Potter and Ron Weasley both have what the other desperately wants and needs. It’s right there in the Mirror of Erised from the VERY FIRST BOOK.

Harry is desperate for a family, a loving, caring FAMILY.

Ron is desperate to just be freaking NOTICED for once.

Ron is a part of the most incredible loving family ever.

Harry is famous before he can walk and talk, and gets bowed to by strangers in a shop.

One of the things that makes their friendship so beautiful is this stupid IRONY, and how they are friends despite this.

But Harry cannot ever give Ron what Ron needs. All Harry can do is make the matter WORSE, however hard he tries to do the opposite, because he’s HARRY JAMES POTTER and any friend of his is not going to get a look in, no matter whether they deserve it.

And then we have Ron, who is able to provide for Harry the next best thing to a family of his own, a chance to become part of a family who will treat him as if the only difference between them and him is red hair and freckles.

And Ron knows that if he does this, if he gives Harry what he needs, it will make his own need EVEN MORE UNATTAINABLE.

Because the fact that he has so many brothers and sisters is what gives him that need in the first place.

And welcoming ANOTHER damn brother?

An extraordinarily FAMOUS extra brother?

Can we just consider how selfless an action that is?

And yet he still does it, he still writes to his mum for a Christmas present for Harry, he still invites him to his overcrowded, rickety house ever summer, he STILL flies a car to SURREY just to give his friend a family, the thing he so desperately needs.

Just-

How can you hate someone like that?

How?

Captain America Civil War: a summary

[starkked]

United we stand. Divided we fall.

[armandyke]

Wouldn’t it be great if Civil War involved absolutely no romantic subplot whatsoever?

[riltmegoria]

Hate to disappoint you but it’s quite obviously Steve and Bucky

[armandyke]

Buddy that’s not a subplot that’s the main storyline

[sgtbuck]

“The relationship between the three characters is more so a bond of kindred friendship. My respect for Cap helps me to help him find Bucky because I know how much that means to him, knowing where he’s come from and everything and what he’s gone through to this point. It’s more so of an understanding and respect than it is three guys chumming around having a good time.” - Anthony Mackie on Falcon in Captain America: Civil War.

A brilliant metaphor

[garudass-deactivated20200602]

6. Cycle lanes are built just for you, and then the cars drive in those too.

[kristen-the-rageful-deactivated]

7. And you can’t go out at night because cars will run right over you.

8. You better watch out for the drunk ones

[mekahmagick]

9. Even if you DO use the cycle lane because it is “Safer for you” A lot of times there are obstacles and other things in the way to make it more difficult to navigate.

[cyrreblogs]

10. Sometimes cars will honk or swerve at you for their entertainment and the drivers will laugh when you react defensively, because they’re safe in their car and don’t realize how dangerous that looks to you on your bike.

11. Some places have much better cycling lanes than others, which is good for those places! But it doesn’t fix the unequally-shared-road problem and really underlines how cyclist-unfriendly other places are.

12. The Door Zone in general. Will every parked car slam a door open directly into your path as you’re passing? No, of course not. Do you have to watch every parked car for opening doors anyways? Yes! Because even one surprise crash into a suddenly appearing door can lead to injury, sometimes serious, or even death.
