For context: This guy is a ex cop who is there to expose the fact that police heavily manipulate these statistics to cover up the truth. He aint a bad person who is lying, he is a good person who is pointing out that the police is lying.

This is both entertaining and really important.

Yo if you’ll reblog the boob campaign, you can damn well reblog Deadpool discussing bollocks.

Deadpool is canonically riddled with cancer this is actually such an appropriate campaign

Reasons to love Pepper Potts:

she’s a strong woman who’s been successfully independent for most of her life

she’s both smart and wise about the company

she doesn’t neglect her mental health when Tony isn’t good for her at the moment

when Tony switches gears out of the blue, changing the company’s goal completely, she goes along with it

when given the company, she does her very best with it

she is incredibly patient with Tony

although she gets tired of his ways, she trusts Tony, even when she doesn’t understand what he’s thinking

she doesn’t let her relationship with him change her views of her position there at the company, and continues to work just as hard as before

what happens to her is scary, but she recognizes that it isn’t Tony’s fault and that she signed up for this sort of thing when she started working for him

although he doesn’t like it and most of us don’t, she knows the suits are damaging his health and their relationship; she’s brave to speak up about it and try to settle things rather than simply leaving him or letting things deteriorate

she’s got a good personality that drives the story forwards

throughout all the years of problems, she stays with Tony in some way, whether it’s by his side or with the company, and she’s still with him in Infinity War, so many years after this movie franchise began

• she’s a born leader. when thrust into precarious situations, her first instinct is to take charge of the situation. despite not being a superhero herself, she actually utilises the resources in her control to make the best of a situation; she leads shield agents to regular cops and directs them on what to do

• pepper is a strategic thinker, and whenever an issue occurs, not only does she take charge, her priority is the civilians (just like tony). this is pepper in im2, giving instructions to the local cops in order to help stop the damage:

Pepper: When they get here, I think you should station them at the south, east, and both west exits.

Cop: We shut down the 7th train in and out of willets point already.

Pepper: Well, have the city buses there to ferry people to operating lines.

• pepper actually stays back at the expo during vanko’s attack (despite there being no immediate need to do so), because she wanted to wait until ALL of the civilians were cleared.

• she’s NOT written in the typical rom-com way of “PA in love with asshole boss” (in mcu). in fact, it’s the opposite, while she may have feelings for tony prior to im1, at no point is she shown to be endlessly pining for him or being jealous of other women.

• in her relationship with tony, it is NOT her who has a hard time getting tony (the-playboy-billionaire) to commit, it’s the reverse. tony is the one begging her to marry him, to prepone their marriage, to have a kid etc. it’s such a wonderful trope reversal.

• she actually runs the largest tech conglomerate on earth (in tony’s own words). the only one who invests more time and energy into stark industries is JARVIS – a literal AI.

• she’s fricking incredibly brave. she went to obadiah’s office to steal information from right under his nose. she is no superhero, doesn’t know combat, isn’t a trained superspy, she’s just a civilian, who does it because it needed to be done.

• she is quite ready to kill someone she loves for the greater good. she did it back in im1, when there was no earth in danger, no alien attacks, but the only consequence was that obie might escape with arc-reactor technology. as peggy carter said, she respects the dignity of tony’s choice.

• she actually killed two out of three of the villains of iron man. it seems that she does take out the trash.

• she also planned to invite avengers into her home. (as you can see pepper & tony together planned the remodel of avengers tower with rooms for each avenger. and the stark tower was pep’s & tony’s home first.)

• she actually believes in the goodness of people. she consoles maya hansen and tells her not to be so hard on herself. this is tony’s ex-girlfriend, and also someone who works for a terrorist (both of which pepper knows at this point), but even so, pepper sees the best in maya.

Pepper: You can’t be too hard on yourself, Maya. I mean, you gave your research to a think tank.

Maya: Yeah, but killian built that think tank on military contracts.

Pepper: that’s exactly what we used to do. So, don’t judge yourself.

• also, notice how pepper uses “we”, and not “tony” or “stark industries”. that’s why tony & pepper make a good pair, because their values match – they hold themselves accountable. pepper takes responsibility for obie double-dealing weapons – despite the fact that neither pepper nor tony knew about it, despite the fact that she was “just a PA” when it happened.

• pepper believes in teams, she doesn’t say it as a catch-phrase, but it is evident in her actions – a failure on the part of the team (SI’s weapons manufacturing) will be shouldered by each member of the team (both pepper and tony).

• also, when pepper is ambushed killian, her first instinct is to tell maya to save herself. she’s genuinely concerned about others (just as much as tony).

• she’s not the emotional sounding board of the hero. pepper does try to help tony the best she can. she is one of the few (along with Rhodey & happy) who recognise that tony is having mental health issues, and she encourages him to sort it out. but the moment it seems to harm her, she steps back. i know that the fandom considers pepperony “toxic” or even “abusive”, simply because pepper doesn’t play the role of therapist for tony. but after a parade of female characters who cure male characters depression/ptsd/or general funk through the “power of love”, i for one am sure glad that we have a heroine who doesn’t act as a therapist or emotional sounding board to a grown man.

tonystark5ever

if anyone is worthy of tony, she is, that’s about the highest complement i’ve got. I think rdj had about as much input and put as much thought into her character as tony himself because he always considered them a set and never tony in isolation because there is no iron man without pepper

“There’s messages in every game. Like Pac-Man. Do you know what “Pac” stands for? P. A. C. Program and Control. He’s Program and Control Man. The whole thing’s a metaphor. He thinks he’s got free will, but really he’s trapped in a maze, in a system. All he can do is consume. He’s pursued by demons that are probably just in his own head, and even if he does manage to escape by slipping out one side of the maze, what happens? He pops right back in the other side. People think it’s a happy game. It’s not a happy game, it’s a fucking nightmare world, and the worst thing is it’s real and we live in it.”

Steve: Last time you said you’re gonna build a farm, it’s for Pepper.

Tony: Yeah. Last time, I thought I was straight. *laughs while Steve looks at him smiling*

Stephen, on the distance learning how to take care of a goat from Bucky: BITE ME AGAIN, YOU FOUL BEAST!

Bucky hugging his goat gift from Wakanda: SAY THAT AGAIN ONE MORE TIME, POTTER I DARE YOU!

Tony: Damn, I love him. *Looking at Stephen carrying a bucket by magic*

Steve: Yeah. *watching Bucky comforting the goat*

I feel like the bandersnatch ending with Stefan discovering he’s on a movie set would’ve had more impact if the woman called him Fionn instead of mike.

What she says: I’m fine

What she means: People thinks there’s one reality, but there’s loads of them, all snaking off, like roots. And what we do on one path affects what happens on the other paths. Time is a construct. People think you can’t go back and change things, but you can, that’s what flashbacks are, they’re invitations to go back and make different choices. When you make a decision, you think it’s you doing it, but it’s not. It’s the spirit out there that’s connected to our world that decides what we do and we just have to go along for the ride. Mirrors let you move through time. The government monitors people, they pay people to be you relatives and they put drugs in your food and they film you. There’s messages in every game. Like Pac-Man. Do you know what PAC stands for? P-A-C: “program and control.” He’s Program and Control Man the whole things a metaphor, he thinks he’s got free will but really he’s trapped in a maze, in a system, all he can do is consume, he’s pursued by demons that are probably just in his own head, and even if he does manage to escape by slipping out one side of the maze, what happens? He comes right back in the other side. People think it’s a happy game, it’s not a happy game, it’s a fucking nightmare world and the worst thing is it’s real and we live in it. It’s all code. If you listen closely, you can hear the numbers. There’s a cosmic flowchart that dictates where you can and where you can’t go. I’ve given you the knowledge. I’ve set you free. Do you understand? I’ll show you what I mean. Come with me. We’re on one path. Right now, me and you. And how one path ends is immaterial. It’s how our decisions along the path affect the whole that matters, do you believe me?

not to be fake deep but like average poor kids deserve affordable higher education too lmao. we shouldn’t be expected to get a perfect ACT, work 40 hours a week, do another 20 hours of extra circulars, be on the honor roll, take only AP classes, have a 4.5 GPA just to have a CHANCE at being able to afford college. esp when avrage rich kids can go wherever the fuck they want with a subpar GPA and test scores.

itsallratherstrange-blog

Also

Poor kids in Britain need more chances to get into Oxbridge. Most high schools don’t offer the chance to normal students as they aren’t normally seen as those who go to Oxford and Cambridge, compaired to private and grammar schools where nearly everyone is offered the opportunity

@staff Not exactly the “welcome back to the app store” you were expecting huh

xancredible27

THIS is the kind of protest that tumblr will care about sooner or later. Leave bad ratings and reviews on apple or in the google play store. Lower their rating so hard that it damages their userbase.

Logging off for a single day isn’t of interest to tumblr. I’m not saying y’all shouldn’t protest in any way you can or want, but logging off the site for just one day isn’t going to bother tumblr because tumblr doesn’t CARE about your symbolic protest. Tumblr has proven time and again that it doesn’t CARE about its userbase. We’re still using the site and we won’t stop using the site any time soon because there’s no alternative. But that’s what we’d have to do to hopefully force tumblr to change anything. And they still won’t do it because their policy change isn’t about family values or what the userbase allegedly wants. It’s about money.

So, unless you stop using the site and app permanently, or for a long period of time, this isn’t going to matter to tumblr. And when you do, you need to do it in big numbers.

Leaving them bad reviews in the apple app store or on google play (where it’ll be harder because the current average rating is 4.4 stars and you need to edit or leave a LOT of bad reviews to drastically lower that), is going to do more to damage their reputation and thus do more to compromise their profit.
