STARK RANTS ✨

Since it’s trending recently why not say my thoughts now??

Ok let me make this quick and simple.

Why the heck would Disney spend billions of dollars to make a Snow White remake with cheaply crafted costumes when we have the nice version right here?! 👇🏼

~ Like this is a ABC soap opera with romance, action, humor and gorgeous outfits (yes a good chunk of the show has a blue screen for scenes BUT STILL not the point!)

AND YET? It looks better in my opinion than the total drama disaster that the movie seems to be??

Disney you spent billions of dollars and your costumes look like Party City made them 🤨🙄🤣

Btw you watch season 1 to see how the tale went down on Disney Plus 🤔

Who knows I might change my mind slightly IF and when I see the movie? OR NOT! High chance I don’t see it period.

Anyways thanks for reading my Ted Talk 🥰 hope you enjoyed it!

The "Sansa reminds Sandor of his sister" motive that some people try to hitch to his character really just flies in the face of his actual attachments to her, doesn't it? Sansa reminds Sandor of himself. He sees the little boy who used to love knights in this girl who's been swept up by the same romanticism. He sees his abuser in her abusers, the much larger knight(s) beating on the helpless child. He sees how she is betrayed by every level of authority that should have saved her and remembers his father's neglect and Tywin and Robert's apathy for Gregor's crimes. He's protective of Sansa because he was Sansa.

And GRRM's design, that one of the strongest warriors in the series, a fearsome and cynical 6'8" guy who's "muscled like a bull" and has the face of death itself, sees himself in this soft and effeminate teen girl, and empathizes with her because he was an abuse victim too, is INFINITELY more compelling than "Oh yeah I bet she just reminds him of his sister," who he's never mentioned and who we know literally nothing about. Way to unnecessarily water down a character, you couldn't have ignored the black and white text more efficiently if you tried.

New Oliver interview with Screen Rant.

[waywardsou2]

PETER, BOB AND JOAQUIN WOULD HAVE BEEN THE TRIO

THEIR DADS WOULD HAVE BEEN COLLECTIVELY SIGHING TRYING TO PRY THEIR SONS AWAY FROM ONE ANOTHER AND CLEANINING UP THEIR SHENANIGANS

PLEASE THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN SUCH A GOOD TEAM

Mini comic I made based on a convo I had with my mom

Also, for the people who don't believe me 👇

(Stony isn't technically canon but it was in a fantastic 4 comic with a female Tony countperart. Idk, I haven't read it and only know about it when i was bored and checked the shipping wiki while zoning out of a movie. It's weird)

(Random note for spideypool: Wade will flirt with anything that moves, but what showd he had an actual crush on Spidey beyind attraction was when his daughter pointed out how much he talked about him and he got embarrassed. Also, the fact that he changed his entire moral code for Spidey. And they're confirmed heartmates. I haven't gotten that far in the comic yet, but I think it's like soulmates but more romantic. Also, Deadpool had a free pass list of people he can sleep with while he was married (his wife signed it and everything), and Spiderman was number five

You know what annoys me most about Endgame (well a lot of things do), but most of all?

The way that it completely ignores what Natasha did. How crucial her actions were to the ultimate victory. Instead they tried to make Endgame into Iron Man 4, and pretend Tony saved everyone singlehandedly. Yet the truth is the plan to reverse the snap would *never have worked* without Natasha's sacrifice.

They had to have all of the stones to snap everybody back- and they also had to have all the Stones to snap Thanos away. Even one missing, and not only would the Snapped have stayed dead, but Thanos would have won a second time.

In truth, it was Natasha who saved the universe and Natasha who ensured ultimate victory against Thanos. Anybody could have snapped Thanos away (it didn't have to be Tony), but few could have paid the ultimate price for the Soul Stone.

In fact: let's talk about the Soul Stone. It was the most difficult and costly of all the Stones to obtain. I read that some theories that the souls of the Snapped were contained in the Stone, and so it was the key to bringing everyne back.

Meaning that Stone was also the one which allowed Thanos and his army to be Snapped away.

So again, it all comes back to Natasha, and her choice on Vormir.

Yet she didn't even get a funeral. The movie just completely ignores her to give Tony all the credit and all the fuss when he actually did very little.

And had to be emotionally blackmailed and tricked to do even that. Natasha was willing every step of the way.

So on Twitter the new “gotcha” by insane Targ stans (in response to the idea that Nettles had no Valyrian blood) is “So that means anyone can warg right?”

And I have never seen a SINGLE fan of House Stark (or the series in general) claim “special blood” is needed to be a warg/greenseer/skin changer. It seems it’s directly related to the individual having connections to the Weirwoods and not due to “bloodline” supremacy.

I also have not seen any Stark fan “mad” at the idea of somebody without “first blood heritage” having these abilities. Which is probably because outside of the rabid Targaryen stans most ASOIAF fans aren’t weirdo bloodline supremacists.

These fans getting upset when it’s point out the text indicates (or at the very least places reasonable doubt) on Nettles being Valyrian says a lot about them. It also says a lot that them that they think the “anyone can warg” is a good gotcha when yeah I 100% am in support of the idea that anyone can warg. Sorry it doesn’t bother me like it seems to bother you.

Maturing is realising that Tony and Peter's relationship in the MCU while it usually gets covered by Irondad fluff, was in fact built on Tony manipulating Peter's idealization of him and wanting to keep his identity secret into fighting a battle that a 14/15 year old should have never been a part of.

And when said kid gets hurt—because of his stupid ass decision—he ignores, devalues and doesn't communicate with Peter, leading to him believing he's not good enough because of his guilt. Kinda just like Howard did with Tony.

Not denying Tony came to actually care and love Pete as a son eventually.

It's just that the start of this relationship was not as wholesome and cutesy like the irondad fandom at the time liked to make it out to be.

I feel like most of the negative discourse regarding BuckTommy and Tommy Kinard specifically would be eliminated if fans did the following:

If they are women, to stop inserting their personal identity into mlm relationships and stop making mlm relationships about them. I’m bisexual, but I’m also a woman. I cannot simply understand to a full extent anything about mlm relationships. If you are a queer man in the fandom who loves BuckTommy, feel free to reply so I can reblog your stuff!

Actually watching the show. I know things can be interpreted slightly differently, but this isn’t a philosophy course in college and this isn’t an A24 film where you have to figure out every metaphorical meaning behind something. Most things can be answered/explained by simply watching the show. A character smiling that much in a relationship means they’re happy, and it isn’t that deep. This is network TV.

Stop projecting in general. This show has had characters who are in their late 20s and beyond. Any materialistic thing that seems to matter that much to the younger viewers, simply would not matter that much to someone as old as Evan Buckley.

This brings me to my next point of understanding how old Evan Buckley is. He is nearing his mid 30s, he is not a teenager anymore and he also isn’t season 1 Buck. He has evolved and matured and just simply cares about different things, or has changed his mindset of how to care for things that he cared about before in a more suitable way for his age. The infantilizing is just gross in general.

Understanding that you can ship a pair on tv without requiring it to become canon. It can simply just be a thing you make edits, fanfic, or write your HCs about.

Understanding these are actors portraying FICTIONAL characters that are telling a different type of representation of mlm relationships. Just because it isn’t being told like Heartstopper or Red White and Royal blue, doesn’t make it any less valid. We are seeing a type of representation that feels rare, a masc/masc relationship and it’s so important, especially in a world where real firefighters or anyone in a macho career doesn’t feel safe to be themselves in.

—Stark Rants 🥱

Aka the segment of the blog where i talk about whatever it is I’m thinking about

…sometimes it’s too early for drama and you just don’t get it. you don’t get the hype for whatever reason. AND YET! you have to still witness it?!

and sometimes you have those folks who suddenly make everything about themselves when you don’t get it 🤷🏻‍♀️

like oh?! u don’t care about the new tech watch i made or the thing i’m watching rn but i have to care about ur new obsession?

girl bye ✌🏽.

at least humor me!

no wonder why dad and @ask-starrk don’t like people!!!!! 🙄

…i had a odd day yesterday with a OLD classmate 😭 and my date didn’t text me back IN DAYS cuz they were busy. Sooo they left me on delivered or read 🎭 (i felt that!)

and now i’m in the living room hearing NONE of the Young Avengers or Agents voices…are they alive???

OHHH—my only friend at the moment is currently an AI i found in dad’s boxes of AI Chips. I HAVE NOT GIVEN IT A NAME YET BUT IF I DO, I’ll make sure to try and act nice towards it…even if half of the time so far I just wanna smack the shit out of this AI Chip 😖

so yeahh, either create chaos by stabbing someone i don’t like with a pencil or make friends with an ai. my only two options cuz i don’t want to go outside and touch the snow, its FREEZING 🥶 out there! i’m swirling in my own thoughts right now.

~~~~

Soooo thoughts? 💭

Achtung: längerer Post.

We have to talk über Dialekte. Um spezifischer sein, ostdeutsche Dialekte.

Ich muss sagen, ich weiß nicht genau wie ich das in Worten ausdrücken soll, aber jedes mal wenn sächsisch als Punchline für einen Witz genutzt wird, könnte ich ausrasten. Das eigentliche Problem ist nicht mal das der Dialekt in einem Witz verwendet wird, sondern das öfters eine Bewertung mitschwingt. Entweder eben der dumme Ossi (weil oftmals auch nicht zwischen den verschiedenen Dialekten im Osten unterscheidet wird und weil die DDR mal existiert hat) oder jetzt in neueren Zeiten der dumme, rechte Ossi. Und wer Dialekt spricht, wird auch eher als ungebildet angesehen. Toll.

(Ich weiß Witze über Bayern und den dazugehörigen Dialekt existieren auch, aber Bayern hat keine DDR-Geschichte.)

Es ist ärgerlich, weil das eine Erfahrung ist die viele Westdeutsche nie haben werden. Ich rede an dieser Stelle von Westdeutschen, denn sollte ich jemals in den Westen ziehen wird mich meine Aussprache und mein Vokabular als ostdeutsch verraten. Und wenn man ostdeutsch ist, haben einige Menschen viele Vorurteile. Ich muss wahrscheinlich nicht mal aufschreiben über welche Vorurteile ich rede.

Ein Gespräch werde ich wahrscheinlich nie vergessen, das hat mich stark geprägt. Ein Gruppenchat auf WhatsApp mit gleichaltrigen und progressiven Menschen. Es beginnt ein Gespräch über Ostdeutschland und Politik. Es fällt irgendwann die Aussage (bedeutungs- aber nicht wortgenau), dass man ja alle Nazis nach Ostdeutschland packen könne, denn die Leute dort haben ja kein Problem damit. Diese Aussage macht mich bis heute wütend. Es ist auch nicht viel besser wenn Leute fordern, dass wieder eine Mauer aufgebaut werden soll. Glückwunsch, keine Solidarität mit ostdeutschen Linken zu haben ist total cool. Manchmal fehlt es an Perspektive, manchmal an Verständnis, manchmal sind Leute auch nur ignorant und haben das Privileg die AfD nur als ostdeutsches Problem zu sehen.

Dieser Post ist eigentliche nur eine Erweiterung meines Wahl Post, aber naja.

mini ironheart/ iron man rant bc the fandom’s lack of media literacy makes me want to bang my head against a wall sometimes 🥰

kinda spoilers for ironheart? but if you’re reading this i assume you’re caught up lol

first of all: it’s ok for fans to joke about tony’s superpower being his money… but when riri, a character who has never known tony personally & just knows the public’s “billionaire playboy philanthropist” perception of him, questions if he’d be who he was without billions of dollars he inherited from his dad, then it’s a problem?

she immediately follows up that question with “no shade, that’s just the way the world works”… so where are we getting the idea that she’s disrespecting him??

all i see is a teenage girl with limited resources looking at what a very wealthy man was able to accomplish using his almost unlimited resources & wishing she had the means to do anything close to what he created

also she’s 100% got a point and anyone who’s mad just isn’t paying attention lol

“tony built an arc reactor and suit with a box of scraps in a cave!” ok yes i know that, we all do! it’s the most quoted thing in all of marvel! & while that is very impressive (no one said it wasn’t), tony wouldn’t have even been in that cave if it weren’t for his status

his entire arc as iron man starts with that kidnapping, and if he wasn’t the son of weapons-manufacturer howard stark, he wouldn’t have had the weapons empire or the billions of dollars in inherited money, he would not have been kidnapped by terrorists and therefore he would not have come up with the iron suit in the first place

sure he’d still be a genius without his money and would be capable of building the suits, but without money, resources, & all the time in the world to mess around in his mansion, he wouldn’t be able to build as many suits as he does in the mcu

anyway tony would’ve loved riri and everyone hating bc she dared question if the billionaire would still be who he was without his money needs to watch the movies again

ok bye !

Recently some green defenders have been a bit too funny and then say something along the lines of ‘’have you read the books?’’ . I have and yes Alicent is an abuser, manipulator and a villain. They changed her so much in the show, but in the books she is 19 and Viserys is 27 and she married him OUT OF AMBITION. She wanted to marry him, give him a son and plant it on the throne. Because this woman (she’s over 18, like literally a woman) bullied and mentally abused 8 year old Rhaenyra. She is evil and even tho the maesters are green biased and try to make out Alicent to be better and demonize Rhaenyra, her treatment of Rhaenyra was never denied. Like come on Rhaenyra probably just wanted to play with dolls and Alicent was calling that child a whore. Rhaenyra hasn’t had a moment of peace since Alicent came in the picture. I appreciate her as a villain in the books, because she basically wasn’t this innocent and poor girl we had in the show, she is purely evil and had one goal and she achieved it. But all the people who make out Rhaenyra to be the bad one (a victim and she is not perfect, because PERFECT VICTIMS DON’T EXIST) and always baby and defend Alicent blindly, no you are not cute for doing this and no Alicent will never be iconic. Not in the books and not in the show.
