[jewvian]

Okay so was anyone gonna tell me Tatiana Maslany is married, for a while now, to someone who isn't Tom Cullen or was I supposed to randomly find out about it after reading an article about this year's Tony awards?

[idiotlosingsanity]

As you were saying?

Feeling kinda cute. Might do your wife or you

No one is cute with sunglasses on, take them off and say that again.

"Even when Tony is evil, he is still a hero." What?

"Everyone except Tony is evil 😈 and he never did anything wrong in his life 🥺."

There is so much to unpack here, but my favorite part is how they looked at that theater alleyway scene and somehow thought STEVE was the bad guy.

I guess in these people's minds Tony actually somehow didn't have enough narrative protection.

This one is so fucking funny to me because the third comment down is flatout admitting that these morons refuse to step outside their echo chambers to even check if what they keep parroting is actually true.

TIL Tony actually didn't have enough screentime in the MCU.

I'm sorry; did this person just try to say without the tiniest hint of irony that the only character in Endgame who wasn't being selfish... was Tony?

HOW BACKWARDS CAN YOU POSSIBLY GET?!?

So yeah, these are some of the absolute highlights (or lowlights) of a Tony-worshipping cult on Ao3. They've mostly quieted down now, but I'm sure they'll come out of the woodwork to seethe when RDoomJ shows up because makes their precious baby billionaire look bad.

Oh good grief.

These people are delusional.

"Weapons dealing is a legitimate profession but assassins and terrorists are given a pass!"- was the best one for me.

Arms dealing is also one of the single most harmful professions. Arms dealers facilitate genocides all over the world. Most of the so callled "terrorists" used Tony's weapons- because most "terrorists" were one rebel groups America approved of. Like The Taliban were once fighting Russia with America's blessing and weapons.

These are the same people who think something being legal amounts to it being morally valid. The Nazis passed laws which enabled them to genocide people which means by their logic, the Holocaust was "legitimate" right?

In many countries across the world, its legal to marry a 10-year-old. In many countries its illegal to be gay, and its legal to beat your wife. In many countries, its legal to execute somebody for being a different religion, or kill your daughter for going out with somebody you don't like.

Does that make any of those things morally valid? Heck, no!

ALso "Steve covered up the Stark's' death"

Lol, Steve didn't "cover up" shit. Zemo was literally able to find out what happened through the files Natasha leake- it was publicly available information.

If anybody covered it up, it was the government after it happened. Steve had nothing to do with that. If anything he bought it out.

The point about narcissism though: I love it what they say that too. It shows how little Tony fans know about pyschology and mental health, because its not actually possible for a person to *pretend* to be a narcissist.

You either are a narcissist or you are not. Just like its not possible to pretend to be bipolar or have anxiety.

Tony Stark also displays no symptoms of PTSD or depression. Where are the self-image problems suggestive of depression? The feelings of guilt or helplesness? Lack of motivation?

If anything these symptoms are far more evident in Bucky then in Tony. Tony Stans just like to headcanon that he has PTSD and tell everybody he does because it sounds better then him being a narcissist.

[shipperoffanonships]

Tony Stark: I hereby reinstate 'Prima Nocta'.

Tony stans: LOL he's so witty and funny-

Well, you idiots, here's what "Prima Nocta" means:

A term derived from medieval legends and historical myths. It refers to the supposed right of a feudal lord to take the virginity of a vassal's bride on her wedding night.

OK, it's not accepted to be a true practice BUT YOU GET THE POINT.

[labyrinthofcrystals]

Sometimes I think about this interaction and the fact that they keep responding like this even after I told them I was 15 when endgame came out/when Tony died. Like hello. How is that normal behavior. I mean, even if it was a "joke", wouldn't you stop after learning you'd be curb stomping a child?! At that point, it's not even funny.

I understand if you don't like Tony Stark but literally in what world is it ok to physically assault & harass someone over it like oh my god. I sincerely hope this person is just an ass & not all Anti Tony Stark ppl are like this.

[fandom-rants]

Just saw a post where someone said that the hottest thing they'd ever seen was when Steve and Bucky beat up Tony Stark, and I gotta say... all I can think of is someone bragging about getting off on watching someone nearly get killed, and I'm just like... ...uh... I am concerned about the safety of those around you...

[chaos0pikachu]

Hello!

For the ask game:

🤍: Which character is not as morally bad as everyone else seems to think?

Hands down jin guangyao from mdzs

Firstly I'm not talking about The Untamed b/c I don't really like or vibe with the show's narrative and find it an utterly poor adaption of the book series. Secondly no I'm not saying JGY is 100% good or whatever, rather that fandom imo makes him irredeemably mustache twirling evil~~~ which misses the god damn point of the series

like @thatswhatsushesaid and others can speak more specifically on the hows, and whys of JGY not being a Children's Cartoon Villain for me it really comes down a few factors of: fandom being we piss on the poor when it comes to discussions and thematics about classism, discussions around non-anglo cultures, the untamed canon mixing with the novel canon to much (they're separate and should stay separate), and in general viewing media in a strict binary of good vs evil

So yeah, JGY isn't a "good" person but jesus fuck on a cracker there's very few chars in MDZS that are "good" people and the novel becomes so much less interesting when you apply those binaries to it. If I wanted kids cartoon morality I'd watch Avatar but fans can't be normal about that either!

Aang gets so much shit from people it's actually wild. The amount of "Aang isn't as good as ppl think" takes is baffling. "He should have killed Ozai" baby wake up and smell the Nickelodeon they were never gonna have their protagonist of their show meant for 8 yr olds murder a man in cold blood in the 7pm timeslot what do you think are you watching? Korra was aimed at an older audience (clearly teens) and she didn't even kill bitches, Amon blew himself up. Why do villains always die off screen or ambiguously in kids shows? Because it's to keep parents off the networks back about violence.

Hell you see this happening in blockbusters, lots of MCU villains die not at the hands of the heroes but via other circumstances, like Red Skull getting sucked into cube space in Captain America, or Erik killing himself in Black Panther, etc it's cause it looks "bad" to have your hero you have to sell toys to parents murdering characters on screen.

Also since I talked about 616!Steve and MCU!Tony in the other ask, I'ma throw in 616!Scott Summers lol Scott got so much hate (and still does!) from fans but he's a vastly interesting character when written well. With comics, the way they're written, and the way they're produced it's just a fact you're gonna get extremely inconsistent characterization overall but the throughline of Scott's char is very strong imo in the comics he's not just a "stick in the mud" or outright morally evil~~ I feel like as knowledge and education about systemic oppression has become more talked about folks have noticed that Scott makes points. And while not always right or justified, his label as a mutant terrorist begins to be viewed more as a freedom fighter (which lots of fans always saw or have seen combine with ppl being more critical of Charles and his misshapen MLK basis as ppl learn more about MLK and Malcolm X's actual politics).

Anyway everyone follow blacknerdproblems the biggest Scott Summer's stans

Ask game: unpopular opinion edition <3

[the-ultimate-romanian]

Adopted Devil Au

Yes, Dante's outfit is inspired by reboot Dante's outfit :))

Devil May Cry x Gravity Falls au where after the demon attack in Redgrave, Dante stumbles upon Gravity Falls (specifically the Mystery Shack) during a harsh winter in search for a warm place to stay and Stan - who knows how hard it is to be homeless and alone during the winter due to his own past w/ homelessness - takes Dante in until it gets warm enough to drive him to an orphanage (that never happens lol).

Dante stays with Stan and in exchange Dante promised to help Stan around the Mystery Shack (basically doing Wendy and Soos' jobs before he moved out). At 1st Dante was skeptical and cautious as he didn't know why this random old dude would let him stay in his house, so he kept identity hidden -by telling him his name is Anthony "Tony" Redgrave -until he decided that Stan was being genuine.

I do want to mention that Dante was in no way forced to stay at the Mystery Shack, he could have left whenever he wanted, after all he was carrying around a huge ass sword (aka the Rebellion)

Lil Dante at the Mystery Shack's door :3

Best WTF moments:

The Swedish cast pushing Jesus into Jerusalem in a shopping cart

The fighter pilots swooping at Judas after Blood Money in 1973. What WAS that. How did they get that.

That is all lol. Every time we watch even a clip of a new production my mother and I spend 2-3 hours discussing how it fits into our rankings, so this could change.

[le-trash-prince]

Okay since it’s been a couple episodes since the last time I took a look at Jeff’s visions, I figured I’d break down the few missing pieces we have left, based on what onscreen info we already have.

Cut for speculation, not-technically spoilers but possibly spoilery

Okay first off... it's Tony stabbing/shooting time hell yeah. (I never really doubted that this was Tony but I do like to be certain)

The plaid patterning and buttons on this suit from Jeff's vision match what he wears at the end of ep 12/beginning of ep 13. With the wound hidden, we can't tell what weapon was used (forensic scientists chime in), but with all of the shooting going on in the preview, it's most likely a bullet wound. Even though in my heart I wish it were Kenta's knife, but I will bow to reason this time.

HOWEVER.

He's wearing a different suit in this part of the vision. I can't get a clear view of the fabric, but the buttons are clearly plain buttons that match the color of his vest.

So I do think that whatever wound he receives in the first part of ep 13 won't be anywhere near-fatal, since he's apparently going to recover enough to swing a fucking sword. BOO.

Possible scenarios:

he gets hit in a non-fatal area on purpose in order to frame X-Hunter in front of the media (I'm not leaning towards this one)

he's a powered Alpha/Enigma with a self-healing ability

If he's using the sword on Kenta I'm flying through my screen to end him.

Those are all my thoughts on that part.

Next up we have the mysterious cameraman, who is revealed to be one of the press at the auction. (So, not a surprise extra cast member acting as Jeff's spy, which is a possibility I threw out in my earlier post. And by Jeff's spy I mean the one he said coordinated Kim's release. WHICH REALLY ONLY LEAVES KENTA AT THIS POINT. I'm going to keep saying this until they give us that fucking flashback.)

If we're taking the onscreen visions to be literal representations of what Jeff sees, then Jeff either would not have known what this was, or done some major conjecturing. But if the visions are more a symbolic representation, then we can assume that Jeff knew he was going to have a chance to reveal Tony in front of the media, especially since he saw himself at the auction, and he's apparently got a speech prepared for this moment.

Next up is Winner... Winner stans look away it's not pretty...

:(

This one probably needs no explanation. We all know it's Kim rescuing his babies, right? Maybe he survives this.... but it looks pretty bad to me. I’m not ready for it tbh :(

The only other thing we haven’t seen yet is this microscopey looking shot. My best guess is we may get some explanation from Babe’s dad on the special powers, but I really have no idea what I’m looking at here lol.

That's all from me from this week. There's a shot of Babe and Charlie in Tony's office, but it doesn't tell us anything we don't know from the preview.

I would like to go back at some point and do comparison shots of everything Jeff saw in his visions with what actually happened.

Thoughts? Anything I missed?
