everybody keeps talking about how terrible texas is and yet i keep seeing posts about these republican legislators ~not representing the majority~ and how senator wendy davis is ~giving the people a voice~ and suddenly i’m extremely confused as to why you all hate texas so much???

yes, our government officials are pretty misled as to where the people’s wants lie, but that’s only thanks to the fact that with the majority of the state’s districts are red (most of which are faaaaaar less densely populated than cities like houston and dallas). the larger metropolitans (four of which are in america’s top 11 most populated cities) are just as blue as other liberal cities like portland and new york city. and just because a county is red doesn’t mean most of the city or area’s citizens are conservative, there’s also such a thing as gerrymandering. 

i know texas is known for our crazy conservative constituants, but as you’re all saying FUCK YEAH WOMEN i’m left wondering why you still see us as these crazies? all i see so far are a bunch of people truly fighting against the shitty system we call our government… which is more than a lot of states can say for themselves, and i think that in itself makes texas pretty fucking awesome. 

now i know i’m not very good with words, but before you make another post or tag another one of your reblogs with ‘wow never going to texas lol’ or ‘those texans are such n00bz’ i’d like you to see that those people aren’t fighting in the capital aren’t just women asking for the right to their own body, but texans trying to utilize their right of free speech to overturn something that they don’t believe in… which is supposedly the entire basis of our government.

You know who that is?

That’s fucking Senator Wendy Davis (D-TX), who is currently in the middle of filibustering a bill that would effectively close down most abortion clinics in the state of Texas.

The only way to block the bill would be to stall it, and the only way to stall it is to filibuster it. 

Which means my girl Wendy has to speak non-stop. Without pausing to eat or go to the bathroom, or leaning on anything. She started at 11:18am CDT today and must go until midnight.

That’s about 13 hours in total.

LIKE. A. BOSS.

GET IT, GIRL.

Somebody save me

[gailsimone]

That is the Superman I like to write. No idea what is ‘corny’ or ‘old-fashioned’ about it.

Could we not have used a hero like this during recent tragedies?

I submit that Superman saving this child is a huge part of why I love him.

Great piece of art, too.

The problem with trying to cram a million years of comic backstory into measly fourteen, especially if your character is Tony Stark or a version thereof, is that it makes Tony look really unreliable, both as a businessman and a hero.

  Massive wall of text under the cut.

And this is leaving so much stuff out.  He's thirty-five. Been sober six-ish years in Fraction's run. That means everything from Circuits Maximus on, I think, is crammed into six years. Extremis/Civil War/Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. is crammed into one.

So, yeah, all of this? If you try to fit it into into fourteen years, he hasn't been able to STEADILY keep any business with his name attached running very long. Why do people think he's such a great businessman? And yes, this is for RP purposes, so it doesn't have to follow things exactly, or at all, I suppose, but holy crap. What even. I hate the sliding timeline so much. I hate it.

Allow me to weep a tear over how perfect this is

I can’t even crack it open to read it because nothing will live up to the expectations stirred up by this cover

And since this is a trilogy, that means there are two more of these books floating out there somewhere, waiting to be found.

[metalpjsofdeatharchive]

I own this! I, uh, actually waited for each book to be published and bought them when they first came out. They're a lot of fun. :D

Wouldn’t it be awesome if bad guys used Tony as a power source?

I wouldn’t mind reading fic about this sort of thing.

A comma splice walks into a bar, it has a drink and then leaves.

A question mark walks into a bar?

Two quotation marks “Walk into” a bar.

A gerund and an infinitive walk into a bar, drinking to drink.

The bar was walked into by a passive voice.

Three intransitive verbs walk into a bar. They sit. They drink. They leave.

subway??? no man this is domway. we tell you how you want your sandwich and u shut up and eat it.

[yaggol-deactivated20150816]

This is domway, where we pre-negotiate how the sandwich will be made with your full understanding of the ingredients and their usual consequences. If the worst happens and you don’t like the sandwich you can use a safeword, we’ll remove it and immediately stop lunch. Then we’ll remake it for you the way you like, with plenty of communication to avoid those ingredients in the future. That way you can build a foundation of trust with us, and enjoy yourself by safely giving yourselves into the hands of other sandwich-makers who have proven their responsibility and compassion with your dietary needs.
