I loved this scene, it’s one of my faves after “Avengers...Assemble!”. BUT DO NOT GIVE THE RUSSOS PRAISE FOR IT.
We were promised “our first open lgbt character” and all we got was that five seconds of Joe Russo being an openly gay man. That? Is not what you hype up the community with. That? Was pathetic. They had the nerve to bait us with that sham of a “spoiler”!
As amazing as this scene was, it was still being used to pull the wool over eyes to “prove” that ‘HeY wE cAn Be InClUsIVE!’
I know the MCU is getting there, but that was atrocious.
In conclusion; GIVE US A FUCKING FEMALE AVENGERS MOVIE!
#A-Force
Ship or not, I think they deserve to be domestic and talk shit.
Also breaking the chain of “all Asians are the same” by changing Noriko to Quyn, because the actress is Vietnamese not Japanese.
A gay Italian character who is not stereotyped.
A gay Arab character who is also not stereotyped.
Neither of them fetishized.
Both of them bad ass as fuck.
And they’re in one of the healthiest relationships, queer or not, I’ve ever seen in an action movie.
Two female leads, one of them Black, neither of them sexualized.
Not even ONCE.
Both of them bad ass as fuck.
And they both have space to be their own characters, with their own arcs.
Directed by a Black woman.
Edited by a Black woman.
Actual MAIN //obviously// Gay characters in a superhero/comic movie? (Not relegated to cameo status, take notes Marvel!)
I’m sorry I can’t shut up about this movie.
I’m just so fucking INTO everything it’s about!
(Edit: I was too excited to think while I wrote this and but now it’s doing numbers and everyone is yelling at me asking what the name of the movie is lol. It’s The Old Guard, it’s on Netflix and came out a week ago.)
Anybody else discover their sexuality through this pairing???? Just me? Okay.
i thank Fuller every day for this pairing
C’mon guys every little bit helps! ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
Hello 👋🏽 I am a physically disabled black woman, an artist, and the sole caretaker of my autistic brother.
Last year, our home was sold from underneath us after our father passed away and my brother and I were left with almost nothing, and nowhere to go. We lost everything. And since, have been struggling every single day to survive and keep a roof over our heads.
We are fighting the system for assistance for my brother, but have been denied twice despite full proof of the extent of disability.
But we don't want to give up. We're raising funds for housing so that we can keep trying to survive together. Black Disabled Lives Matter. We should be allowed the same tools to live as everyone else. So we ask for your help.
Please help us, share our GoFundMe, share our story, donate if you can. Help us keep a roof over our heads so that we can KEEP TRYING.
Thank you 🙏🏽💜
Was OK, am OK, and always will be better than OK if my best friend came out as trans. And she's beautiful!
let’s see how many transphobics we can weed out
Shuri’s feet didn’t touch the ground!! 😭
I was severely bullied by girls of color throughout my school life from 3rd-10th grade. They targeted me and made my life hell enough that I nearly attempted suicide. The group changed over the years but the ringleader remained the same. She was black and came from New Orleans after hurricane Katrina and the only thing I did to kick start her aggression towards me was to say hi, and ask if she remembered me from our summer school class (btw we were both in special needs for different things).
I was a sheltered child and did not understand the racially divided area she came from. And since I grew up in the Texas school curriculum, I harbored prejudices I didn’t even realize had been taught to me. I’m an adult and in college, now. I have come to fully comprehend how my ignorance must’ve harmed her over the years.
Does this excuse everything she did to me? No.
Do I hold anymore ill feelings towards her? Sometimes.
DO I THINK SHE DESERVES TO BE OPPRESSED AND THREATENED BY OUR COUNTRIES SYSTEMATIC RACISM??? FUCK, NO!!!
This country still insists on indoctrinating our youth with dangerous and appalling biases, and keeping us ignorant of what our citizens of color go through daily. I’m learning things now in college that I should’ve been taught as a child!
Not gonna argue with anyone about the Asian Lives Matter movement. If you think me supporting the movement makes me a uncle tom, that's your opinion. I know it's not true and this isn't the first and won't be the last time that I will get called these names.
I've dealt with several racist Asians in my life. I've always been angry at the person, not everyone who shares their ethnicity. Just like I hate being grouped in with all black woman across the USA, I'm not gonna do that to people of other ethnicities.
I don't care what a Korean American said to you 5 years ago, when you went in their store. That does not justify people attacking and killing random Asian people, they see on the streets. What I'm doing is called being an ally. If you don't wanna be one that's fine, but don't attack me for being a decent human being and speaking out when I see Asians getting attacked for no reason.
Motherhood is not specific to a race or nation. There is no proper religion to follow in order to be a mother. Motherhood is above all else it’s very own Creed.
I have come to the conclusion that there are no k drams out there that will not leave me in fuckin g tears! FUCK! And I thought the BBC was bad! This is about you, writers of MOON LOVERS: SCARLET HEART REYEO. Is a simple fluffy happy ending too much to ask for? You've turned me into sopping mess! I'm a horror movie buff for crying out loud! Fuck! Who introduced me to this genre? You're dead to me!
