Because seemingly no form of discrimination against men/boys exists ever. /sarcasm

Is the draft not misandristic then? Is male genital mutilation not misandristic then?

Is male SA/CSA victims/survivors OFTEN not being taken seriously enough by the law not misandristic then? Is all that just misogyny for you? It only affects men negatively, but it's still somehow misogyny for you.

I'm sick of society denying the reality of misandry.

Europeans are mad when Americans are so US-centric like our society didn't make us this way and constantly reinforce it in every system we have.

Me after seeing dozens of trending tweets like “#notmyariel” and “#notmymj” and now it’s FINALLY directed at a white persons casting with “#notmymario”

Well Rama, what do you think of The Croods?

Rama: One word: Adventurous! Because this is great movie i watched as a little kid, and everything is plain adventurous!

The Croods was released on the 22nd of March (American release date) and the 28th of March (Australian released date). It was produced by DreamWorks Animation SKG and distributed by 20th Century Fox, it is one of DreamWorks Animation's computer animated movies.

Eep (Emma Stone) is a girl in a family of Neanderthal Cavemen (Homo sapiens neanderthalensis) living and hunting in pre-historic times, talking about how her family is one of the few to survive, mainly due to the strict rules of her overprotective father, Grug (Nicolas Cage). In their cave home, Grug tells a story to the family, which includes his wife Ugga (Catherine Keener), his daughter Sandy (Randy Thom), his son Thunk (Clark Duke), and his mother-in-law Gran (Cloris Leachman) with a character who mirrors Eep's curious nature. He uses this story to warn the family that exploration and 'new things' pose a threat to their survival, and says to never not be afraid. This irritates the bored and adventurous Eep, and when the family falls asleep after dark, she ignores her father's advice and leaves the cave when she sees a light moving outside. Seeking the light's source, she meets Guy. Guy is a cro-magnon and is afraid of the dark. He gives Eep a shell to call him when Eep refuses to leave with him because of the end of the world. Grug comes and brings Eep back to the cave after they barely escaped from a Bear Owl and got Eep grounded for leaving the cave. the earth quake erupts and destorys the cave and the croods are forced to jump off a cliff to escape a bear owl.

The Croods encounter a "Macawnivore" (a large, macaw-colored machairodont later called 'Chunky') and attacked by a swarm of "Piranhakeets" (deadly red-furred, piranha-like birds). In panic, Eep sounds a horn similar to that which Guy gave her. Guy hears this and rushes to her. Thinking quickly, he creates a torch of fire, which scares the birds away. The other Croods are captivated by the fire, having never seen it before. They steal Guy's torch and accidentally set the land around them in flames. Some giant corn is also lit, which rockets up to the sky, prompting a display of fireworks. Popcorn then falls on them.

During the next day, Guy attempts to run away but then gets caught by Eep. After being told by Gran that the family needed his fire, Grug bottles him in a hollow log to carry him in, then suggests that they take solitude in the cave of a nearby mountain mentioned by Guy. Guy is forcibly persuaded to lead the way and learns of the Croods' way of living, which he thinks of as unusual. After an unsuccessful hunting attempt, Guy, his 'pet' sloth, Belt (Chris Sanders), and Eep build a puppet to fool and lure a Turkey Fish. After the attempt failed, Eep saves Grug from running towards the trap Guy and her set, whilst trying to Eep. The Turkey Fish gets going into the sky and falls to its doom. After that, the family greedily devours the Turkey Fish while Guy terrifyingly watches them while eating his food like a 'proper human'. Grug then tells another of his morale-lowering tales, this time mirroring the events of their day. Guy then tells a story of his own about a paradise he nicknames "Tomorrow".

The next day, the family reaches a path coated in spiked rocks. A freed Guy presents one of his inventions called shoes. He makes some out of all the resources he can find for each family member. This gains him some respect from the others except for Grug, who feels jealous of Guy's cleverness. During the journey however, Grug gets unlucky while attempting to break Guy and Eep up. After Guy's ideas help the Croods on their journey, the family members gain something. Ugga, Gran, and Sandy have their first idea to get past carnivorous plants by hiding under flower heads as they pass, Thunk encounters a Crocopup he calls Douglas, and Eep and Guy grow closer while Grug is stranded in a ravine, forcing Ugga to go back for him. The next day, Grug shows the others some of his ideas (like a snapshot that involves the family being slammed with a flat rock), which fail and humiliate him. They soon reach the mountain, where Grug is unable to convince the family that settling in a nearby cave is a better option. Angry, he attacks Guy. The two become stuck in tar and Guy reveals his family died drowning in it and their last words inspired his traditions of "Tomorrow." Grug has a change of heart towards Guy, and he and Guy trick Chunky into freeing them by pretending to be a female "Macawnivore" in trouble.

As they are about to reach their destination, an earthquake opens a deep ravine in their path. Grug throws each of them across the gap and reconciles with Eep while creating the first hug with her. Grug then throws her across the ravine and is left behind. He takes shelter in a cave and makes a torch. After seeing a blank rock face, he paints a large cave-drawing of the Croods and Guy together. He then encounters Chunky, who attacks him until Grug's torch is accidentally blown out, panicking them both. The newly reformed Chunky lies near Grug, who has an idea. He uses a skeleton carried by the Piranhakeets to transport himself, Chunky, Douglas, and several other animals across the ravine, barely escaping the oncoming "end" destruction. He and the rest of the family settle down in a paradise-like environment. Grug becomes less protective, letting the family be more adventurous and risk-taking, thus bringing happiness to them all.

And that's how the movie is, if there's any special movie involving The Croods, i'm going to watch it. Also, people said it will be The Croods: A New Age, which it already released on November 25, 2020. I can't wait to watch every single best movies from companies! ^_^

Rating: 10/10. (Best movie).

Hi i loooove your blog! And the jokerxharley content, i still love em together! Do u think there's still a chance dc might let them get back together in the comics, maybe or in the games coming up?

Firstly, thank you so much for enjoying my blog! It really means a world to me. <3<3 

Secondly, despite not knowing who you really are, I can already say I like you because you’re referring to the ship as jokerxharley and not j*rley (and I strongly believe that awfully stupid ship name popped up right after the Suicide Squad movie but we don’t talk about it...).

I think it’s just a matter of time when things come full circle considering the twisted relationships between the two clowns. I’ve said that many times that Harley Quinn is a massively popular and entertaining character everyone seems to love and adore but she’s simply pointless without the Joker. We’ve seen a lot of attempts on making the character independent in various Harley Quinn stand-alone comics, tv series, and finally the Birds of Prey movie where Harley becomes fully emancipated, which sadly gets rather boring after first fifteen minutes of watching or reading because you know Joker won’t make an appearance. We all know main the reason why it’s done is to “tick certain boxes” but we don’t talk about. My point is, the character of Harleen Quinzel/Harley Quinn was created especially for the Joker as his accomplice and future partner in crime who willingly decided to stay with him, who willingly helped him escape Arkham Asylum, etc. I don’t think Mr. Paul Dini and Mr. Bruce Timm were thinking about box ticking at all while creating Harley Quinn and that gave them freedom that is essential when true art is considered. 

As for the latest comics featuring the ship, I quite enjoyed their dynamic in Batman: White Knight, Harleen. I don’t really care about the Punchline love triangle that’s happening at the moment, I think it’s just a phase. I really hope Joker returns in Harley Quinn Season 3. If he doesn’t, I quit watching it lol.

Okay so I’ve never actually watched Love Never Dies, but I’ve read the plot synopsis on Wikipedia, and to be honest, I probably will never watch or listen to it. I’m sure the music is good and all, but the plot makes me uncomfortable. Everything just seems really out of character for like, everyone. (Besides maybe Erik/ The Phantom, cuz I can see it taking a long time for him to get over Christine.)

But like, Christine cheating on Raoul for the Phantom the night before their wedding? Raoul being cold to his son? Meg hating Christine? It just doesn’t sit right with me tbh.

I love Erik/The Phantom, and even though I wanted he and Christine to end up together, I respect the narrative choice, and I see now how much Christine loves Raoul. I think Christine loves Erik/The Phantom too, but in a Father Figure/ Teacher kind of way.

TLDR; Love Never Dies makes me uncomfortable and I’ll probably never watch it or consider it canon.

Unpopular (apparently) opinion

under cut so ppl don’t get butt hurt. also TW for homophobia hypocrisy in the RPC NBphobia and OMFG!!!!!!!! OPINIONS.

You don’t wanna play Cheryl Blossom as a lesbian? You say its okay to play her differently because she’s ‘not lesbian in the comics’? fine! Go ahead! BUT FUCKING DON’T SAY ITS HER FROM THE SHOW SAY ITS HER FROM THE COMICS. PLS DON’T SAY SHE’S CANON-DIVERGENT FROM THE SHOW BECAUSE TAKING AWAY HER SEXUALITY IS LIKE MISGENDERING A TRANS* CHARACTER TO BE CIS ITS OFFENSIVE. wanna use someone that ppl will recognize as Cheryl? HERE’S THE COMICS TO CAP AND READ (just be warned ads on there get really nsfw) or check out @peppermintstranger for some other redhead options. But bashing lesbians who are speaking up about the underlying homophobia within not letting Cheryl be lesbian on here is not okay. In fact, its just as homophobic. Why? Because you are speaking over a demographic that is routinely and systematically talked over/erased/sexualized/ignored in the RPC and IRL. Lesbians should not have to be afraid or reluctant to play characters with their orientation in fear of not getting interaction because of it. IDGAF if you’re bi, pan, het, or any other sexuality outside of lesbian, if your page is full of ‘i’m accepting and supportive of everyone and all orientations! uwu’ type stuff, then only M/M or F/M pairings? I call absolute BULL-FUCKING-SHIT. That’s HH, Hypocritical Homophobia (or Homophobic Hypocrisy, either one works well) and i don’t want to have you on my dash. As a nonbinary person who writes a nonbinary character, i’ve dealt with similar issues in people not wanting to write with Jay because they don’t see ship potential EVEN IF I DON’T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT A SHIP. Or, people saying they’re much less likely to write ships with NB character ‘because reasons’. If you’ve had bad experiences with a NB or lesbian character being force shipped with yours, you can work past that cos woooooooooo boi force shipping is not great but once it happens you can pick up the signs of it and IDK... be mature and actually stop someone instead of being petty and passive or passive aggressive? TALK TO PEOPLE WORK SHIT OUT ITS EASY AND I CAN GIVE PEOPLE DBT TIPS ON INTERPERSONAL EFFECTIVENESS IF NEED BE. seriously, IM me if you want them and i’ll get them for you.

TLDR PLEASE JUST LET LESBIANS HAVE ONE CHARACTER WITH Y’ALL SHITTING ALL OVER THEM AND MAKING IT HARDER FOR THEM TO LIVE HAPPILY. OKAY THANKS.

ALSO LESBIANS THIS BI NONBINARY FOLK GOT YA BACK

@magmaichor are there people up here in 2018 who still use fanart willy nilly and tell the artists “uwu well its fanart so you dont own it i can do what it want” we are really still doing that

I don’t even know, I’ve honestly seen a few things in the past about art discussions, but it came back up again and I just decided to take it upon myself to say something about it now because???? I haven’t in the past?? Though I haven’t had issues personally on tumblr, apparently its a big problem? Like I mean, come on, it’s common sense. if you misses stuff, i get it but if you are asked to take stuff down, be the good person? take it?? down??

Then again anybody who doesn’t do that and doesn’t comply is an asshole anyway and shouldn’t really be welcomed with open arms. because that right there shows signs of toxicity and I get tf out when i see stuff like that.
