"Very different to be a minority, but not be treated as a minority right off the bat. I'd say now people are very aware of my race because they made it such a big issue when I moved to the UK. But before that...most people didn't treat me like a 'Black woman.' So that talk didn't have to happen for me."
Meghan Markle in Harry & Meghan (2022). Dir. Liz Garbus
You matter.
Find something to help you to keep moving forward.
Like being there for someone you know or haven't met yet, even the mindset of living out your worst enemies.
I don't want more people to die from this, so if you keep fighting, I will too.
I love you ❤
I know the future looks bleak but if we stick together and stay alive then we can make positive change. It won't be easy and there will be so many days where you question if it is even worth fighting but it will eventually pay off. I promise. Stay strong, stay alive, and stick together. 💙

You know, I struggle with my first and only language English, and it especially shows when I am in a panic.
One time my friends mom who mainly speaks Spanish was driving us to our musical practice. When we got out of her car she was driving away when I panicked and tried to scream
"Stop your mom! My phone is in her car! "
But what came out was
"STOP YOUR MOM! MY CAR IS IN YOUR PHONE! "
And if that wasn't embarrassing enough, right afterward I realized that was holding my phone in the hand I was using to point at the car.
Not only did my friends die of laughter, they do what good friends do, never drop it.
I'm so done with it. I can't with it anymore, it's just shock value at this point. You can get away with it a few times without it ruining the story, but by building the whole franchise off of it, you have created a disaster. Not only did their trash writing kill an interesting character who needed more depth and is way smarter than portrayed (she knows better than that, she has been on earth, she knows what shes doing, she shouldn't be fucking dying in the first episode like an absolute dumbass, that's not her fucking character) Maria, but they took a potentially good storyline of fury not being the same as before and instead dumbed it down and used the blip as the reasoning. I'm tired of them causing more questions than answers provided. It's just lazy and truly undermines the hard work of other workers who are forced to work out this shit.
I'm just so over it. Fuck the mcu
the fact that marvel PROMOTED maria hill as one of the proganists of secret invasion, made a individual poster of he character, released the first images of the show with her in it, even dropped a marvel's legends episode just for her for in the end FUCKING KILL her character in the first episode of secret invasion and credit the actress in the end as a "special guest" is so fucking foul of them... this is my villain origin story
“you see, that’s what abuse does to you, you know. it made me this sticking plaster for all of life’s weirdos. this open wound for them to sniff at. I knew she was mad and I knew she was dangerous. but she flattered me and that was enough.”

when a Netflix show gives you an answer that therapy hasn’t been able to give, you need to hit pause and contemplate a bit. why have I always attracted the crazy ones? the ones that any “normal” person would see from afar and turn the other way. why have I, though, ran up to them and invited them in? why have I sat nights studying their hearts and minds and telling them they are not shitty people when all evidence tells otherwise. why did I make myself some sort of remand home? why didn’t I believe people when they told me how horrible they were as people? when they showed me? how is it that I always managed to attract them? a sticking plaster for all of life’s weirdos. how to stop being one? but also if you believe you are one of them too, wouldn’t you want to be around them? because you know you don’t belong with the “normal” ones. they don’t get the messy parts, the deranged parts, the problematic, concerning, twisty parts of you. the crazies do. they see those parts of you and they don’t make you feel bad about it and they validate you. so maybe that’s why you let them sniff at you like an open wound. but you know there has to be a difference, a clear demarcation between crazies and weirdos with a good heart and kind soul and those with a rotten heart and a bloody soul. I know there is. I am that difference.
What an unsurprising & completely expected turn of events that literally everyone saw coming 😮

I was just rewatching Frozen II and I have a few thoughts regarding Elsa being the 5th spirit.
When this movie first came out I thought it was stupid that ice was the fifth element, however that isn't exactly true. Elsa is, not ice. Firstly she is a connection between the spirits and humans as she is the only human spirit. Secondly, her powers have some elements of each of the spirits. While her connection to water is obvious, she is also connected to fire, air, and earth. This might be a stretch but her ability to make snow and ice fly is her connection to air. Her ability to melt her creations is her connection to fire, along with her being able to help tame the wild nature of fire. The earth one could be a lot of things but I would say her being able to create structures could be one or how she can create life since there are multiple earth giants, this one I'm still kinda working out. However this kinda connects to the third reason it works. That she has the ability to create life, unlike any of the others. I don't understand the earth giants, but it seems like it's just them representing the live earth. Elsa has created multiple forms of life and have protected them.
But idk. This is all just a theory, a FILM THEORY!!! Thanks for reading.
