Just An Old Fan

Multi fandom. I also love the 80s : Music, movies, and tv. I am an adult and refuse to censor myself or validate whiny children on Tumblr.

Now that we’re all talking about Endgame...

I can side-eye Steve’s ending. Look, we all know that Steve Rogers deserves to Rest, and most of us were hoping to see him somehow survive that movie. However, there is not enough suspension of disbelief on this earth for me to believe that Steve “I will punch injustice directly in the face” Rogers is going to spend seventy years playing house and meekly trying not to put a hair on history’s head out of place while atrocities (that he knows about!) happen. 

Like I’m really supposed to pretend Steve’s gonna chill and raise 2.5 kids while the US government does McCarthyism and Jim Crow? The dude that has been punching up since he was 5′6 of health problems and rage is just…gonna spend a bunch of time trying to teach some toddler to say “grandpa” while the US military dumps Agent Orange on civilians? Like, he’s canonically a military history nerd who has polished up on every shitty thing that happened while he was taking his ice bath, and he’s just…gonna watch it all, quietly, while being like, “Hey Peggy! Sorry I zapped your original family out of existence! This one’s good, too, right?!”  

To say nothing of Bucky Barnes, the person he broke every rule for, over and over again. Steve “I’ll walk to Austria!!!!” Rogers is going to knowingly chill while Bucky is brainwashed and tortured for seventy years? 

Yeah, no. Back to pretending this movie doesn’t exist!

The end of Endgame really really was OOC Steve. It’s just awful.

Call me old-fashioned but can we please leave all the ship shaming out of fandom spaces?

Ships don't need to be canon

Ships don't need to be implied in canon to be shippable (hell, the characters don't even need to have met in canon)

Ships can be morally questionable to downright wrong when you look at them from a real life perspective

Ships can involve an adult character and a minor character (which btw isn't inherently wrong also in real life, it always depends on the context)

Ships can involve real life people and there's nothing wrong with that (rpf is a thing ok?)

Ships can have different sexualities than what the characters have in canon (which is probably the origin of shipping altogether)

I could go on like this forever and my point is everything is, can, and should be possible when it comes shipping. Shipping is after all just a fantasy and it often is, can, and should be a space to explore things you maybe can't, wouldn't or don't want to explore in real life.

And I'm not saying you can't have an opinion on a certain ship but if you don't like it, just don't say that it's wrong and that people who ship it are gross, ok?

Not to be messy but-

A fan of the man you called racist over a shag marry kill game exposed your fave as an actual racist? Sounds like karma to me but okay

[myownclouds]

The only reason the hudcons released those screenshots is they were mad that Hudson pissed all over their ship.

And now they want “grace.” No, fuck you. You spent months calling a queer man a predator and calling him racist over a FMK game because you were too stupid to understand the game was about FICTIONAL CHARACTERS. So all the hudcels and hudcons can go choke.

Ilya & Shane HEATED RIVALRY — 1.05

[hrgifs]

Ilya gave in and reached for him. As soon as he had Shane in his arms, he was done for. He leaned forward and took his mouth. It felt different this time, as he wrapped his arms around Shane’s back and pulled him close against his body. Shane’s hands cradled Ilya’s face as he kissed him with the force of everything they had almost said out loud.
