Knees, always knees. So I dropped to my knees and went down on them both, letting them nut balls deep and swallowing their midnight brew. TWICE!

life on vulcan was so fucked up that some dude preaching "it is what it is" shifted the fundamental philosophy of them as a people

If only Declan Rice hadn't suceeded in heading this Gvardiol shot off the line - it could have been a whole different story for City 😫

You don't do it because you choose it. You do it because you're supposed to. The Universe has a way of course correcting - to ensure what needs to happen will.

i've learned from my hubris and will be making no claims about how season two of OFMD will or will not affect me.

If Kevin Fiege made an announcement tomorrow to say that he was removing all the Hulks (main Hulk, she hulk, red hulk...) I would be looking forward to Cap4 1000% more. Instantly.

The MCU hasn't made one good choice when it comes to Hulks. And frankly, given the level of rushed CGI lately, Hulks are just going to look goofy and bring the tone down.

I want a cool political intrigue, espionage, geopolitics kind of tone to it like CATWS and CACW. You know... a Cap movie. If you're having Sam have a conflict with a President Ross, cool. No need for Red Hulk.

This basically boils down to wanting Sam's movie to focus on Sam. I want this movie to be the best damn thing in Phase 5. I want Sam to win!

Things are what they are and will be what they will be.

Nope now it’s at the point that i’m shocked that people off tt don’t know what’s going down. I have no reach but i’ll sum it up anyway.

SCOTUS is hearing on the constitutionality of the ban as tiktok and creators are arguing that it is a violation of our first amendment rights to free speech, freedom of the press and freedom to assemble.

SCOTUS: tiktok bad, big security concern because china bad!

Tiktok lawyers: if china is such a concern why are you singling us out? Why not SHEIN or temu which collect far more information and are less transparent with their users?

SCOTUS (out loud): well you see we don’t like how users are communicating with each other, it’s making them more anti-american and china could disseminate pro china propaganda (get it? They literally said they do not like how we Speak or how we Assemble. Independent journalists reach their audience on tt meaning they have Press they want to suppress)

Tiktok users: this is fucking bullshit i don’t want to lose this community what should we do? We don’t want to go to meta or x because they both lobbied congress to ban tiktok (free market capitalism amirite? Paying off your local congressmen to suppress the competition is totally what the free market is about) but nothing else is like TikTok

A few users: what about xiaohongshu? It’s the Chinese version of tiktok (not quite, douyin is the chinese tiktok but it’s primarily for younger users so xiaohongshu was chosen)

16 hours later:

Tiktok as a community has chosen to collectively migrate TO a chinese owned app that is purely in Chinese out of utter spite and contempt for meta/x and the gov that is backing them.

My fyp is a mix of “i would rather mail memes to my friends than ever return to instagram reels” and “i will xerox my data to xi jinping myself i do not care i share my ss# with 5 other people anyway” and “im just getting ready for my day with my chinese made coffee maker and my Chinese made blowdryer and my chinese made clothing and listening to a podcast on my chinese made phone and get in my car running on chinese manufactured microchips but logging into a chinese social media? Too much for our gov!” etc.

So the government was scared that tiktok was creating a sense of class consciousness and tried to kill it but by doing so they sent us all to xiaohongshu. And now? Oh it’s adorable seeing this gov-manufactured divide be crossed in such a way.

This is adorable and so not what they were expecting. Im sure they were expecting a reluctant return to reels and shorts to fill the void but tiktokers said fuck that, we will forge connections across the world. Who you tell me is my enemy i will make my friend. That’s pretty damn cool.
