It’s really funny to me how Overwatch gives the tip of “oh a well-balanced team is more likely to win!!!!!!!!” but you look at their character select screen and it’s like
, a host asks people on the street who made a certain historical discovery, letting them choose between the woman who actually did it and a fictional man.
Turns out Domino’s a bit of a badass, and maybe possibly mildly lucky.
I love how she’s written as being constantly super chill about everything 😀
I’ve seen written somewhere that it was super refreshing to have a BLACK WOMAN move about the world without a care, without being afraid or on her guard, knowing that, even scary stuff happens, things will sort themselves out for her eventually.
Maybe that’s what privilege feels like.
Yes, and it’s wonderful that she was written like that and that audiences didn’t have to worry about her dying. However, as a result of her character being so lucky that she didn’t have to worry about that in the fictional context, her costume was so figure-hugging that padding it was impossible and her stunt double literally died. Ryan Reynolds was enormously negligent here. Having the character project bravado because the character is immortal doesn’t mean the actress was, and in prioritising this he cost a stunt double their life.
can we stop saying that words like dumb and stupid are ableist slurs or ableist language please I’m autistic and that’s just… not what the fuck a slur is bye
A slur is when a word’s principal colloquial usage is intended to target a certain group in a violent manner and stupid and dumb are used in relation to disability like 0.1% of the time. It’s almost always referring to people who say shit completely out of their lane and realm of expertise and it’s actually useful language. It’s like, I’ve been called disgusting for being gay b4 but disgusting is mainly intended to refer to other stuff and it’s not homophobic to use it in a context that has nothing to do with gay ppl. Tired of seeing ppl getting hassled over insulting an idea using the only language that can describe the negative quality of the idea. Like, guys. R***rded is a slur. Stupid and dumb are not damn slurs.
I’m Autistic and Schizophrenic and I think both ND and NT ppl should reblog this if they want
co signed by a disabled person cos people always Surprisingly Forget we are actually one of the main targets of ableism and discrimination. wild
simon: I was closeted and not ready to come out and martin was threatening to out me to the entire school if I didn’t help him slightly inconvenience you
simon’s friends: okay but wHY
simon:
Leah: you were setting me up to get my heart broken!
Simon, a clueless gay who had no idea she was in love with him:
martin: I didn’t think people still did shit like that
simon, a gay with common sense and eyes:
Simon: *literally gets bullied and shunned by the whole school for being gay*
The whole school: *shows up to the Ferris wheel to cheer Simon on now that he decides to be confident*
Simon:
SImon: Outed for being gay and having his entire intimate thoughts and feelings published for the world to see, losing someone he cared about
We know she’s just mad cause they have more melanin than she’s used to seeing
Lol I used to work at target and know for a fact that that’s literally one aisle sandwiched between several containing several an array of bland white dolls why would you fake a struggle like this?? It’s so flawed 😩😂
^^^^^^^
White girls are so pathetic
And…there’s absolutely no reason she couldn’t’ve bought one of those for her cousin, anyway? (I mean, no reason beyond “that cousin is probably being raised just like her and would do terrible things to the doll”)
i found this post on facebook this morning and went to My Generation to tally their dolls by skin color just to see how absolutely out of proportion the OP was blowing things.
they have 106 dolls total on target’s website. 87 of these dolls are white. 46 of those white dolls are blonde. counting all their total dolls of color, you get 19 (and that’s being generous and tallying any exceptionally tan ones). only one of these dolls resembles someone east asian.
so yeah, this lady only found 8 dolls (two of which are from seperate brands) and she’s still steamed when the brand she was looking at has 87 white dolls for her racist ass to choose from.
I really want a movie where there’s this Dark Brooding Male Hero who’s like, a total badass, and during all the fight scenes he keeps getting flashbacks to happy images of his wife, and like his whole narrative is framed around his wife, and all the other heroes on his team know that he’s got this passion and vengeance and think it all has to do with his dead wife… but then near the end of the movie his wife shows up and he’s like “hey babe” they’re all shocked and they’re like, “Wait I thought all your power and passion came from avenging your dead wife?” and he’s like “no bro, I just really love my wife, she’s really cool, she’s what keeps me going” like… a reverse fridge

Steve Rogers, who has recently woken up in the twenty-first century, googles “advice for the modern era” and accidentally discovers My Brother, My Brother and Me.
“We asked you to send in questions related to World War II and Superheroes, because this week our special guestspert is… Captain America??? How did we get Captain America on the show???”
“Please, call me Steve.”
“I legally don’t think I can do that, sorry.”
G: Rogers, can I call you Rogers, Rogers?

G: –NO!!! Fuck. Oh shit, I said fuck in front of Mister Captain Rogers, FUCK
