Loki: I Really Want Someone To Pay Attention To Me All Day Long.

no, YOU’RE looking at him respectfully. i’m objectifying him to filth we’re built different

the mcu is back to being earth-199999,,, ive finally won

I've also posted my Wanda photos on my new Instagram page, robin.ecarlate, and I included this write up about the character, her history, and what sort things people are participating in/perpetuating by dressing up as the Scarlet Witch for Halloween this year.

Me first seeing the movie: Ha, The Grandmaster is hilarious and That Scene where he winked at Loki, and Thor had a beat of blissful ignorance before succumbing to a minor collapse of mind at the image thus created, was A++, one of my favorite things. Also showing off the differences between Loki and Thor’s approaches to surviving on a hostile planet–Thor punching people spectacularly and Loki cozying up to people spectacularly–was a great use of The Grandmaster to give the mains characterization. Frostmaster is not really on my radar, though. I don’t get it, really??? It’s a bit silly? Loki probs just strung him along to keep the interest.

Me a week after seeing the movie: Hmm, but ~actual~ sugar-baby Loki is a nice image. HMMmmm. And let’s be real, Jeff Goldblum was enjoyable as heck every minute he was present, I want more. I kind of like the thought that these ridiculous losers had a good time together off-screen. Like, these two gorgeous fails are the only ones getting the good sex in this film while Thor and Bruce are off almost dying, because that’s the funniest idea. Also just–for once in his life, Loki’s twisty brain concocting a plan that serves him more well than first assumed, instead of turning into a complete dumpster fire. Picture Thor saying ‘Really???’ with the entirety of his face and, like, soul, and Loki having to respond with a weird flippant shrug and satisfied smile that is never mentioned again. A little crackship that I’m lightly into, OK.

Me now: Wait a second. Wait. These two??? make a disturbing amount of sense??? Both of them are super powerful and could kick ass, but they would rather spend their day lounging around getting served grapes and making fun of people. The Grandmaster would be the only person ever to think Loki’s stab-y tendencies and betrayals are ‘feisty’ and ‘playing hard to get’, respectively, and be totally chill about them. Loki would get pampered by an older man (a balm for this man’s daddy issues tbh), getting all these pretty clothes and such to set his vanity at peace, and be 'the first paramour/main bitch’ instead of second fiddle for a change. Both would be fine with space to themselves to create their own trickery. Morality is p similar and Loki would be a beautiful Saakar royal due to the inherent chaos of the place. Fulfilling philosophical conversation with each other as they sneer at the less witty around them. Both too charming for their own good, to the point where you like them even when you shouldn’t–as if this isn’t a prime power couple staple. Imagine: everyone around them wondering what the heck their relationship even is because it’s so weird and both of them delighting in such gossip. Oh. So I might legit ship this, huh?

he's an irredeemable villain TO YOU. I understand him though

I miss this Nicki.

5 Years ago today, Kanye West dropped ‘Monster’ giving Nicki one of the most acclaimed verses in Hip-Hop History.

I think people need to realize that like, the darker you are the more types of oppression you will face if you are labeled as a non-white group–that’s just how it is. If you are light skinned or white passing, but also a person of color (or black), acknowledging that darker skinned people in your community will be treated worse isn’t taking away from your oppression. We are not saying that you have white privilege or that you don’t face racism or oppression at all. But no matter how you see things or what you think you will ALWAYS be treated better than darker skinned people in your group. Even if it is just a little better, you still will be treated better, will still get better or even representation in general and still be seen as the more acceptable/visible person in that ethnic group. That is how colorism works. It isn’t your fault, but it’s also not your job to ignore that. Colorism isn’t an American centric thing, it exists in EVERY community even those who haven’t had western influence. So that’s just something that needs to be understood. Someone discussing how they face oppression based on being darker skinned isnt taking away from your oppression—

i hope this email finds you a broken husk of a man
