it’s a misspelling of what I believe to be the Russian equivalent of FUBAR which I discovered while reading a Stucky fic back in 2017ish??

THEY GOT RID OF HIM AND I DO CARE. I DO CARE

We’ve all been wearing masks for the last few years to prevent the spread of covid-19 and still could recognize each other, or at least the people that we saw daily, and yet no one has addressed superhero masks that cover like their eyebrows and the bridge of their nose. By those half mask standards, I have a secret identity too. We all do. Except the Karens who wouldn’t wear masks. They’re the villains who want attention from the media. #artimitateslife #andlifeimitatesart
But like seriously, superhero masks are something we should just call plot holes by 2020 after the coronavirus mask mandates. Just think about the whole love square in Miraculous Ladybug. Listen, Marinette, if I can recognize my crush when the bottom half of their face is covered then you should be able to recognize Adrien in what is essentially a pair of sunglasses. Guess you haven’t longingly stared into his eyes as much as the show would have us believe.
There’s also Steve not recognizing Bucky on the bridge before his muzzle fell off (though I will give him a break because his bf HAD been dead for over seventy years to his knowledge) so from now on I will be imagining that the Russos just forgot to show us Steve’s inner monologue of “isn’t that Bucky?? No Bucky is dead :( wait but what if it is Bucky?? I mean Coulson came back. And Loki. Loki has come back many times. Wait okay no I think I’d recognize that icey blue glare from decades away, that’s the Bucky look for ‘Steve I told you not to do the thing why did you do the thing I’m gonna kill you’ except this time he’s actually trying to kill me,,,, oh is hIS MASK FALLING OFF oh is that his mask there on the ground oH I KNEW IT WAS “Bucky??”
And I know people have talked about why it actually would make sense that the lack of glasses would make it hard for the world to know that Superman is Clark Kent but I’m gonna bring this one up anyways because guys we can all recognize one of our coworkers without their glasses on there is NO WAY that Lois Lane a woman who’s PROFESSION is deduction of events which she then reports to the general public cannot recognize her coworker in a costume. If you saw the lady who works at the front desk in a cheerleader outfit you’d still know it was her, but Lois can’t for some reason do the same with Clark?? She does her journalism all day with her right hand man Clark by her side RIGHT UP UNTIL she reports on Superman (which she does quite often, might I add) who is just Clark in spandex and No Glasses™️ and you’re telling me that this lady has no idea they’re the same person??? She works with one of them all day and then is gazing at reporting on the other one the rest of the time and has no idea??? Also I get that Clark is the alias and he’s actually Superman the man from Krypton which is why he makes less effort to conceal his face as Superman because that’s him and Clark covers up with glasses because it’s a clever plot device to show which one is his true self, but can we talk about how he MAKES LESS EFFORT TO CONCEAL HIMSELF AS SUPERMAN AND YET ALL THE PEOPLE HE KNOWS AS CLARK STILL DO NOT KNOW HE IS SUPERMAN???
I’M OFFICIALLY COMING FOR ALL COMIC BOOK ARTISTS, DIRECTORS, ANIMATORS, AND PRODUCERS WHO DON’T COVER THEIR CHARACTERS ENTIRE FACE AND PRETEND THEIR IDENTITY IS STILL IN TACT. IF THE PANDEMIC HAS PROVEN ONE THING ITS THAT IF YOU KNOW A FACE YOU KNOW THAT FACE AND HALF A MASK DOES NOT CHANGE THAT SEND TWEET
the bullseye themed chain is a contender that rivals the Swedes’s; consider target
there are very few department stores in which you can have a comfortable overnight stay in. walmart technically is well supplied for a sleepover, but it’s actual interiority (the germs, messes, depressing tiled flooring, very warehouse-like arrangement) makes it hostile to the intimacy of a slumber party. ikea on the other hand? it’s like being in a series of miniature homes that have been stripped of walls and ceilings. the displays are segmented into rooms, but they’re still ensnared in a wider matrix of observable private spaces from wherever you’re standing. to have an ikea go from “a place to shop” to “a place to stay in” reveals the luxurious comfort of it’s delightfully cluttered landscape. those people who were stuck in that denmark ikea overnight are the only people on this earth who are getting raptured. the rest of us are going to hell.
This is somehow both 8yo me and the reason 8yo me slept in bathtubs fighting for my life three nights straight after my dad forced my sleep paralysis having self to watch M Night Shamalan’s 2002 film, Signs, for the first time
The X-Files (1996)
“I am not throwing away my shot,” said Alexander Hamilton who famously died because he threw away his shot in a duel against Aaron Burr
Yo so I fuck w/ this movie,,,, but the BOOB TREE???? What was THAT! And like the boob bird dog thing and the old magic tree stump witch’s relationship was randomly intense for a kids movie. But the bull king chasing a wave of unicorns was a twist I’ve never forgotten so I will still give The Last Unicorn (1982) a raving review despite the weirdly sexual trauma it no doubt instilled within me
the last unicorn lived in a lilac wood, and she lived all alone
Loki and Sylvie both wanted to see what was beyond the TVA. Sylvie because she wanted to destroy it, and Loki, because he wanted to rule it. So if Sylvie’s goal was to take down the dictator and create the power void, Loki’s was to fill the void.
They’re the gambit.
Gosh, I really love it when people draw mermaid less conventionally pretty and instead they’re draw more like something that could actually live underwater and have gills and tails that could actually propel them underwater because then they’re gorgeous and terrifying

And after they told me they saw it without volume I was like, “But there are scenes where the characters and aliens DO talk and make noises and the noises are plot relevant,” to which they replied, “Yeah it got confusing at times, but overall it was still a pretty good movie.”
So that’s an idiots review of John Kraniski’s A Quiet Place
My favorite thing about the quiet place sequel coming out is being reminded that I know someone who watched the entire first movie without realizing the volume on their phone wasn’t on and still liked the movie
I’m really grateful for how randomly invested I was in Greek mythology, because I feel like it really desensitized me to nudity in the world in general (especially considering how literally advertisers take “sex sells” in America), but more specifically in art. I know there are a lot of people who might not be able to appreciate drawings, paintings, or statues because of the nudity so I’m proud of younger me for just not caring because now I get to see cool art like this and instead of turning into some like middle aged prudish Karen I can just see this and be like, “Wow the person who made this is talented! I really like this style!” So yeah, art is better if you don’t instill mental restrictions to the art that you consume. Haha sorry rant over, but yeah, this is pretty!
statues from Musée d’Orsay I drew a while ago
The way that Margot gave Harley characterization past “the Joker’s sexy insane girlfriend” in a movie that tried so hard to keep her in that role is so important to me. She literally is taking off a collar and becoming her own person in this scene. And in that last gif you can see Harley make the decision to be happy, to not let anyone keep her or her mood down. Margot really gave us a scene where Harley chooses to take control of her life, we’re so blessed.

Pinterest has spoken.
T’Challa Udaku and Steve Rogers are the two bigggest simps in the MCU.
Way back in 2018, I saved the lyrics “Can't I make you understand? You're having delusions of grandeur,” from Defying Gravity, Wicked, in a Google Doc of all my favorite quotes. However, upon rewatching all the Star Wars movies this year, I realized that I might not be the first person to like the line... looking at you Stephen Schwartz
“You get killed? Walk it off.” Was directly foreshadowing Pietro ‘I can run really fast’ Maximoff’s death
There were also at least two times where a single bullet was enough to give Quicksilver pause, which foreshadowed how he was going to die
What, you didn’t see that coming?
I don’t like the picture on the right because his wrist is visible, but I just wanted to point out that the little wing symbol is on his new arm too 🥺
So last night I had this dream where I was looking at a gif set of Steve and Bucky kissing as Steve died, and it was super sweet and dream-me was all like “Awww, I’m glad that they at least made it canon before he died.” And then I woke up all happy that Stucky was canon. And then this hide wave of sadness hit me when I remembered that it’s not. That wasn’t real. That didn’t happen. It was just a dream. Endgame didn’t end with Tony getting to watch his daughter grow up, obviously. And Steve didn’t take the gauntlet from T’Challa and do the snap. And in Steve’s dying moments his century-long relationship with his one true love wasn’t confirmed with a kiss. No, it ended with him leaving Bucky and then not even giving him a glance while talking to Sam about how he ditched them for a girl in the forties. So yes, Erica, one COULD say that I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning
Title: Matchmaking
Summary: “Look, that was not my fault,” says a deep voice, crackling over the mic. Bucky jumps and clutches at his chest, heart pounding.
“Holy shit, you’re using the in game chat?” Bucky croaks. No one uses Destiny’s in game chat.
