it remains like. funny but in a "lmao look at that moron" way that the argument against the gods continues to be some nebulous concept of freedom when like. the god of freedom was like "I would like you to save me, but ultimately it is your choice" and the party is actively debating a decision that the gods are not forcing them to do and do not themselves agree upon. I mean it's telling because the people saying this in the story and in the fandom are the people who think freedom means unanimous support of their own personal opinions and perspective and desires but really like, what exactly have the gods prevented anyone from doing since the Divine Gate went up. the only person who really has a case of the gods forcing them into something is Opal, and like, that's what happens when you put in the spider queen's vestige and make pacts with her over the course of months, it's no different than any warlock pact with an evil entity, Delilah or Uk'otoa would do the same and they're not on the chopping block.

something about foreshadowing being more prominent the second time around reading a story but in a way that the meaning is changed forever and you can never view a story the same as you once did before. do you know what i mean.

In a fascinating turn of events, I came to the conclusion that instead of doing the work that I was planning to do today, I would spend today animating this painting I never finished.

...Please squint a little if you want to look at it, the posterisation ate the colours and I don't have the skill to figure out how to make it not do that.

I’ve seen some people complaining about Channing Tatum/his accent in Deadpool & Wolverine, and I just want to set a few things straight.

Channing has been on the docket to play Gambit since 2005, but each and every time, the character was cut from the script, he had a prior contract, or the director kept getting replaced until the project was scrapped 4 years later with the Fox/Disney merger.

He has family in Louisiana and grew up in the bayous (albeit in rural Alabama). This character has meant something to him since CHILDHOOD when it comes to representation in media.

Gambit doesn’t speak SAE (Standard American English). He’s a street urchin from Acadia/New Orleans. He grew up speaking Cajun (a mix of Southern American, Canadian French, and España Spanish grammar applied to a mostly English vocabulary) and Louisiana French (an offshoot of Canadian French from Acadians).

Every person I’ve seen online who ACTUALLY GREW UP around people who speak Cajun, Creole, and/or Louisiana French has said that his accent is SPOT ON, maybe even a little too clear.

All this to say: if you can’t understand Gambit in Deadpool & Wolverine, you’re not supposed to. That’s the bit: unless you’re used to those dialects and accents, you’re shit outta luck trying to parse it out without help. Hell, even Rogue, who grew up in the South, doesn’t know what he’s saying half the time.

does this to you

I think the first step towards the life you want is often to just say yes to more things. Accept that coffee invitation from your coworker even if it seems awkward. Sign up for that free class at the library that you're not sure you'll like. Join that club. Book that tour. Say yes to as many things as you can and kill the part of your brain that gut-reacts with a no.

one of the highlights of this film is the students not recognizing their "good-looking" sensei without his blindfold (￣▽￣)
