The Pattern
Top Gun: Maverick (2022)
supervillains fucking hate fighting the x-men because the teams change constantly and sometimes there are??? totally new people there???? fuck there’s a teenager who literally just has eyes all over his body. is he even technically a superhero yet or is he a student. who the fuck knows. how do we counter this shit
When one seems completely non-mutated and they’re like
@melazertyiop
And no matter which team it is, Wolverine is there. Is it the future? Wolverine is there. Is it an alternate reality? Wolverine is there. Is Wolverine dead? Wolverine is there.
Was Wolverine never born in this alternate reality? Wolverine is there.
Does Wolverine only exist as a non corporeal spirit? Wolverine is there.
Is Wolverine only a philosophical construct used to explain our place in an uncaring universe? Wolverine is there.
Is Wolverine only a theological concept used to explain mankind’s struggle against the universe? Wolverine is there.
Is Wolverine there? Another Wolverine is also there.
And let’s not forget when the villains just switch sides. Last week this guy was on your side now he’s next to Wolverine and kicking your ass.
The only constant is Wolverine.
There are three constants in life: death, taxes, and Wolverine.
Death, taxes, and Wolverine. I’m dead

cool advice from dark souls
types of study breaks for every situation
if you realize you’ve been studying for hours: grab a snack to refuel your body and watch a sitcom to refuel your brain. then back to the books.
if you’re feeling stressed out: take some deep breaths, text your friends, maybe stare at a wall for a few minutes. gather yourself.
if you can’t seem to focus: get moving and get outside. take out the garbage, check your mail box, maybe walk your dog. just get moving and get fresh air. it’ll help bring you back.
if there’s something else going on in your life and you can’t get it off your mind: write down what’s going through your head, sort of like a diary entry. it’ll help you work things out.
if you’re just mentally and physically exhausted: set a timer for 25-30 minutes and take a nap. any longer and you’ll hit REM and you’ll wake up feeling just as tired. once you wake up, get some caffeine in you.
if the material is boring as hell: find another way to study. see if there’s a crash course video online about it or draw out what you’re trying to learn in diagrams and pictures to make it fun.
if people around you won’t shut up: listen to some music. soundtrack and classical music is always good because they won’t absorb you as much as music with lyrics. white noise (like ocean waves, rain sounds, etc.) also works.
if you only half understand a concept: call/message a friend who’s not in the class and try to teach the material to them. this will help you mentally work through the material and will help you remember it as well.
i feel like obi-wan was constantly giving cody heart attacks because as the war went on and got more and more dangerous, obi-wan kept deciding “oh, i kinda feel like wearing less aRMOR TODAY”
like honestly, look at this:
early in the clone wars he had chest armor that looks like it probably covers his heart from both the front and the back and also has plating all the way up his arms as well as on his shins. it’s not perfect, but it’s definitely something, especially considering how the majority of the time, the enemy used blasters
after the time skip, apparently obi decided all that plastoid was cramping his style so he got rid of basically all of it except for his forearms. i would love to see his clones’ reaction to finding out their reckless general had now made himself even more of a target.
by ROTS obi-wan decided to basically fuck armor entirely, opting for fabric and leather alone, content in the assumption that the power of the force and pure concentrated sass will save him. he doesn’t even have gloves anymore lol. cody has long given up hope.
and it only gets funnier when you go back even earlier in the war, because he used to wear FULL ARMOR
boy even wore a helmet
no other Jedi did this, Obi-Wan just went full trooper and wore their armor, rode their speeders, wielded their weapons, “Jedi propriety” be damned (and other Jedi did comment on this). Qui-Gon would be so proud.
and then he just starts….stripping as the war goes on
What with his track record with robes, it was only a matter of time before he misplaced all his armor too.
I’m assuming the Jedi Academy accountants were constantly complaining about General Kenobi’s New Robe Budget.
Honestly I expected “win the war by removing more clothing over time” to be more of an Anakin single brain cell plan but you go, Obi Wan, you funky little Anastasia
Listen Anakin learned from someone and that someone was General “I look competent but all my plans involve the words ‘and then I do something SUPER COOL’ Kenobi.
I just found the greatest slide while studying for my entomology exam
I definitely don’t remember this from lecture but I cant stop laughing
the prevalence of discarded beer bottles has actually impacted this species pretty badly because they’re so much bigger and more visible than a real female. They are more attracted to the beer bottles.
it happens with humans, too
I absolutely love that this appears to be a universal sexual phenomenon
Nature is so bloody weird
you cant just say you have a hack for drawing pinstripes and not tell us jude cmon

hulkphobia in millennial society: discuss.
tender hulk is not only stigmatized as a fan creation, but also flat out ignored when in canon. the hulk is a separate entity with his own thoughts, feelings, and ideas, which are separate yet intrinsically connected to bruce banner. the hulk is a protective, caring, emotionally intelligent being who is constantly overlooked and reduced to a big, dumb strongman due to his often impulsive nature and simplistic speech pattern, an act of which is routed in ableism. in this essay i will
just gonna leave these here #gentlehulkiscanon
110% true, gentle Hulk is so important to me. I’ve read a HELL of a lot of Hulk comics and especially in the early ones Hulk never ONCE attacked first. People see him (mostly military) and go omg giant scary monster! And attack him and Hulk OFTEN wonders WHY he is being attacked. He’s stated he doesn’t know why they are doing it and also stated that he WASN’T DOING ANYTHING but of course he will defend himself.
Hulk has also canonly stated “hulk is tired of the guns and the noise and the fighting”
And the few people that approach him nicely he defends the hell out of.
That’s why I love him so much. Hulk is so much more and I could rant for hours. I love this post for being this up
I HONESTLY THOUGHT HULK WAS JUST “RAAAR SMASH” THANK YOU FOR WIPING AWAY MY HORRIBLE PRECONCEPTIONS
Also, surprisingly civic minded at times
Hulk is also not stupid. Banner’s brain is still in there; Hulk is just focused on different things.
I honestly think Taika Watiti did the best job at this in mcu canon. Hulk was emotional, expressive, and insightful. Valkyrie was kind to him, and he made a genuine friend with her.
So many writers and directors have reduced him to “dumb barbarian” when in reality he’s an impulsive adhd guy who only gets let out in times of heightened emotion and tension. When he is in a calm environment? He’s just a big green dude.
IT experts are often described as “computer wizards”, but that’s not particularly accurate. IT experts are clearly priests.
Considered the resident authority on systems you have no first-hand experience with owing to the fact that you’re the only person who understands the documentation (interpretation of sacred texts)
Responsible for communication with vendors and service providers because you know how to phrase requests to get the desired results (intercession with higher powers)
Performance of rote procedures that anyone could carry out, but which are believed to have special power when it’s you specifically performing them (observance of rituals)
Credited with the proper functioning of critical devices even though all you did was poke it a couple of times and shrug, your touch or presence being treated as apotropaic (purification and exorcism)
Devising technical explanations for human error so you high-profile clieants don’t sue your dumb asses (absolution of sins)
Computer Warlocks, who have made foul bargains with unknowable forces.
Those are sales reps.
do you want tech priests because this is how you get tech priests
Not so much. Warhammer 40K tech-priests are definitely inspired by the idea of IT-as-priesthood, you’ll get no argument from me there, but as written, they’re basically just a bunch of 1980s Hollywood stereotypes about computer nerds filtered through a religious lens by someone with a very low opinion of the Catholic Church. An Adeptus Mechanicus written with an eye toward satirising real-world IT culture would look very different!
People who like rocks see cool rocks everywhere. People who like birds see interesting birds everywhere. The tree on your yard could be an exceptional specimen. The world around you could be amazing and magical, but you aren’t enough of a nerd to see it.
I gave my mum Alexandra Horowitz’s On Looking: Eleven Walks Through Expert Eyes for her birthday this year, it’s a book that revolves around this idea: the author invites specialists in different things to walk around a boring city block with her one after the other so they can point out to her the things they see, that she doesn’t notice. There’s an expert in typography talking about what the variety of fonts on urban signs can tell you about the city’s history, an entomologist pointing out all the urban insects no one pays attention to, a geologist, a sound engineer…
dc literally has better villains than marvel because marvel antagonists are always like “i wear ALL BLACK and THREE PIECE SUITS and i kill people because i’m SAD inside” meanwhile everyone in gotham just be off the shits and have an actual aesthetic and presentation
The villain’s in Gotham are better because no one can out do Bruce Wayne in “i wear ALL BLACK and THREE PIECE SUITS and i beat up people because i’m SAD inside” so they had to come up with something else.
this is the only response anyone is allowed to put on this post actually
