Seeing biblical teachings being reversed into conservative teachings is one of the funniest things holy shit. Like this makes it painfully clear that Jesus taught the exact opposite of all these things yet conservatives in the US wanna call themselves “men of god”.

Wanna hear a shitty movie idea?

It’s a crime/comedy movie about two rivaling crime robbing syndicates trying to beat each other to the same deals. Pretty generic, right?

The twist is that they don’t really know anyone on the other side of the war and one day, the top agents go to steal the prize jewel, run into each other and end in a fight that results in their masks being taken off.

Turns out, the two groups are clones of each other and all the main ones are played by actors that are always confused because they look so similar.

Tom Hardy and Logan Marshal Green

Jeffery Dean Morgan and Javier Bardem

Amy Adams and Isla Fisher

Keira Knightly and Natalie Portman

The teams even have their own janitors/voice of reason!

Rupert Grint and Ed Sheeran

And, of course, the leader of both gangs and eventual main villain are Elijah Woods and Daniel Radcliffe.

Someone tell Dan and Elijah. These assholes are the kind of tiny men who would make it happen and we all know it.

after seeing Birds of Prey, I have decided that women can commit egregious acts of violence against men.

some man online: “arya’s a mary sue. rey’s a mary sue. i simply don’t believe a young girl could be that skilled.”

what they expect me to say: “well, no, actually, canon supports it, because if you look back as far as season three, she’s been training for–”

what i’m actually gonna say: “good. good. about fucking time. in the next movie i hope rey blows up a dreadnought with finger lightning that she learned earlier that day. i hope she rips palpatine’s spine out with her bare hands while everybody claps”

Neither of those are coherent reasons beyond whining “I want! I want! I want!”

Whoosh, their point really went over your head

the point of “I want it! I don’t care that it’s sloppily made! I want it, I want it, I want it!”?

white straight cis men: [getting to eat candy exclusively for like seventy years, just drowning in candy, candy, putting up billboards with pictures of candy]

anybody else: may i also please… have some candy

you, an intellectual: candy rots your teeth. what are you, some kind of fucking baby

pyjama-llama

how’s that in any way, shape or form related to wanting fiction to be well made, and not just a strawman made by you so that you can mock someone who dislikes sloppy writing and doesn’t mind bad ideas being criticized?

robotmango

hey, if it’s asking questions time, here are some of mine:

what’s “sloppily made” or a “bad idea” about a trained girl assassin doing an assassination?

what’s “sloppily made” or a “bad idea” about a girl discovering she can use a quasi-magical force in a universe where quasi-magical forces exist?

what’s “sloppily made” or a “bad idea” about having a gay superhero in a story that takes place in a world where gay people exist?

what’s so hard to understand about my original post? is it not obvious that i’m making a joke? a joke about the way that gatekeepers expect us to be constantly proving the “quality” and “merits” of us getting any scraps of representation at all? when we should not have to fucking do that?

i’m tired of being forced to do fandom homework for gatekeepers. i shouldn’t have to write a dissertation on arya’s training with the faceless men to establish the validity of her actions to people who’ve been watching the fucking show all along but just have such misogyny-soaked brains that they can’t recognize the difference between “bad writing” and “my own shitty internal bias.” there is PLENTY of shitty writing on game of thrones: nearly all of it! but this was a logical plot development, and yet fandom still lost its collective shit, because skilled women are somehow the most fantastical element of a fucking ice zombie story.

that dude asking “well why should there be a gay avenger?” is a perfect example: he wants his homework done for him. he wants an essay in 12-point font with one-inch margins outlining Ten Solid Reasons for the inclusion of a gay avenger and their Relevance to the Plot, but i will tell you what he deserves, which is to be told to fuck off. there should be a fucking gay avenger because there are fucking gay people alive on earth and that is IT. we’re alive in the world, and so we deserve stories. stories about people like us. it’s that simple.

the point of my original post is that i am done politely providing footnoted essays on why there should be heroic lead characters that i identify with. “rey’s a mary sue” is not a statement that deserves to be refuted with evidence, it deserves to be fucking laughed at, and i was.

so i didn’t build a strawman for you: you carried one in here. feel free to escort it back out.

pyjama-liama

You’re right. I wasn’t thinking critically and had already made up my mind not to listen to you.

The more I thought about it the more I understood that holding minority representation to higher standards of subjective quality was unnecessary and childish in and of itself. If I wasn’t personally impressed by the movie, I didn’t have to watch it.

And I actually have no idea where I got the point that wanting something isn’t enough reason to want it. It doesn’t make any sense.

Furthermore, I see now that representation is uneven and it doesn’t add up that this would be because white, straight, male representation just happens to always be better. It was my own internalized bias that led me to believe this without logical support.

And above all, my refusal to understand simple concepts doesn’t place the onus on you to explain why you want something. It’s on me to think about different perspectives. That’s how we grow as people. Insisting on remaining stagnant stifles that intellectual growth.

I apologize for being dismissive of you. What I said was smug and had no basis in logical thought. Going forward I’ll try to think more critically about the reasons for my opinions before I speak.

#that fucking awesome moment when your best friend stays at school for christmas because he knows you’ve got nothing to go home to and he wants you to be happy

#people who hate ron must also hate friendship and love

the thing to remember is that ron has always been not-quite the most ANYTHING in his family. he doesn’t remember being the youngest because ginny’s only a year younger. he’s not the only girl. he’s not the smartest, the cleverest, the tallest, the strongest, he’s not even the most freckly or redheaded! he doesn’t have any particular standout skills, (except perhaps chess, and my particular headcanon is that Molly taught him that.) What Ron DOES have is Harry. For whatever twist of reason, Harry latched on to Ron right away and NEEDED him, terribly a lot. Harry is likely the first thing, person or plant or animal or semi-aware magical object, that Ron has EVER voluntarily chose to spend his energy on. Harry shows Ron that he’s valuable and unique. To Harry, there’s Ron, and then there’s all these other people over here doing stuff that is inexplicable and sometimes fascinating but also scary. So Ron doesn’t like Christmas at home all that much because it’s all a big mess of people who are better at things than he is. But Christmas at Hogwarts with Harry means that Ron is able to be the best friend of them all. It’s selfish, but it’s also clear from the moment Harry steps into his life that the thing that makes Ron special from the rest of his family isn’t his sense of humor, his bravery, his intelligence, his strength. It’s his friendship. Ron is the best at being a friend. And that’s what Harry gives him - a way to stand out.

remember when jared leto absolutely terrorized his suicide squad castmates and turned himself into a laughing stock bc he misinterpreted what method acting is, only to have 7 minutes of screen time and be cut from most of the film’s promotional material? i know it was a while ago now but i dnt think anything more satisfying will happen in our lifetime

bi-furiosity

ok but the full extent of margot robbie’s vindication is frankly legendary. she wanted a better chance to relish her role as Harley so, like an absolute icon, she went to warner brothers and pitched a movie to then. now we’re getting an r rated girl gang movie about harley getting out of her shitty relationship w/ joker and going on a chaotic ass roadtrip with a bunch of other female heroes. it’s going to be the first superhero movie directed by a woman of color and there are multiple major characters of color, including a Latina lesbian. can you believe margot robbie obliterated jared leto’s tired ass joker with one fell swoop?

raptorific

and two really important updates: 1. all planned future appearances of Jared Leto as the joker (Joker solo movie, Joker/Harley movie, etc) have been indefinitely tabled, including his planned appearances in the Suicide Squad sequel, where he’s pretty much the only cast member of the first movie not returning 2. The Joker is confirmed to have a cameo in Margot’s Birds of Prey movie (likely for the scene where she leaves him). They’ve opted to use a body double for the part rather than inviting Leto to reprise his role

polyamory is neither inherently abusive or radical it’s literally just dating multiple people at once. this has pros and cons and risk factors specific to it just like monogamy does. that’s it. not that deep, no need to apply all sorts of symbolism to it
