everyone on this app is really pro body positivity until it comes to comparing the uk and us versions of a show

#this applies to a lot of them but most recently its shameless #i saw a side by side 'which do you prefer?' type thing and all the comments were like 'omg why do they look like that 😳'#but I'm so sick of this faux-acceptance up until someone's got stick-out ears or crooked teeth or a big nose #then it's all 'ooh the brits get such weird looking actors lol' like no fuck off #body positive #body posititivity #shameless #shameless uk #shameless us #us reboots #american reboots #mine

maffhew who refuses to say runebergin torttu because he knows hes gonna butcher it so bad he might be kicked out of the country the second he tries and staunchly avoids that by going "the one dessert that barky is going to have to explain 😃"

sasha who gets faced with the most generic description of everything hes ever eaten in his life so far because of maffhew and going "???... oh you mean runebergin torttu!"

"he did good he liked the food and he likes the finland so far so its good" sasha says with so much pride now that all the anxiety has left his system that his husband teammate is enjoying his country and doesnt hate it

media availability | 10.29.24 (x)(x)

the smile of a man who knowlingly doomed his husband and said husband using all his brain power to context clues his way to whatever the fuck he just got asked that his brain is running hotter than a mid 2012 macbook air thats somehow still alive in the year of the lord 2024 but girl does she chug along shes louder than a fighter jet

No matter what universe, cartoons, comics or video games, Donald will always be the best parent to his nephews, Huey, Dewey and Louie. Happy 90th birthday to the best uncle, as well as a happy belated father's day.

Please like and reblog if you support that Donald Duck is also a great parent, father and uncle to his nephews.

P.S. The second image is a redraw of Carl Barks Golden Helmet by Patrick Block, and the fourth image is artwork by the genius Lara Molinari who painted Duck Avenger (Paperinik) with his nephews as him.

Made a faintly insane list of of every animated movie I have good enough memories of to feel confident ranking, although some of them I would probably move around if I saw them more recently....

#Apparently “It's Such a Beautiful Day” is my favorite American Animated Movie which is not something i REALIZED before I made this...#movies i haven't seen since i was a little kid aren't on here which excludes a lot of Disney Classics. I have seen more animovies than this #i made up the word animovies to fit that sentence in that tag #also i watched all of the nge reboot movies but it was several years ago and I genuinely do not remember anything that happened in them #i remember not liking them compared to the tone of the series or original movie or thinking they contributed much #despite ostensibly fleshing out the world more #the lower you go on this list the more deranged it looks #i am not actually a big Pixar stan or anything. i do feel like this list makes LUCA being my highest ranked Pixar movie make sense tho..#like. contextualizes that choice by laying bare my Proclivities #i have not watched as much complete and utter dogshit slop as Emily #i DID make her watch Igor (2008) tho it was like... not actually terrible but i went in with my expectations on the ground #i made this list when we were watching strange world and strange world didn't end up on this list on account of me not actually paying #enough attention on account of the deep thought i was putting into this instead #texting #off topic #I have not been having an easy time doing creative things so you get movie and book opinions #i feel vaguely apologetic for some of the choices in this. but not really. It's ranked 100% by how much i enjoyed it there is no pretense o #objectivity

watching the 1996 doctor who tv movie with friends should be compulsory actually. its god awful but twigs and i had a right laugh about it

#“as the 21st century dawns the seventh doctor becomes the eighth in san francisco” is SUCH a synopsis #it really shows that this was meant to be an american reboot but ToT #why does the master love leather so much #why do the restraints look like that #“thats PIMP. master.” -me & thetwiggiesttwig #in contrast scream of the shalka is so good #doctor who #eighth doctor #doctor who tv movie

Soap for the character ask game?

EEEEE thank you!!!!! so for this i'm going to focus specifically on captain 🧼 mactavish from MW2/MW3:

✨how I feel about this character✨

i'm sure its no surprise but i am a big fan of captain mactavish 🧼 i definitely ????? at the abrupt jump from him being a sergeant in MW to him being a captain in MW2 because in terms of actual military structure thats...insane in a 5 year time span (which is the canonical amount of time between the MW and MW2 campaigns) BUT! 1. that was infinity ward's doing, not soap himself and 2. its a video game franchise and hes sexy and cool so i know it really doesnt matter <3 i do also appreciate his more stern attitude and obvious focus on getting things done and being efficient about it (i have played cliffhanger soooooo many times just because i love his dialogue so much because it is an excellent example of this, that and the gulag just HRGHHH)

✨all the people I ship romantically with this character✨

just ghost and roach :3 i love soapghostroach (my forever OT3), soaproach, and soapghost (and roachghost but this post is about soap lol)

✨my non-romantic OTP for this character✨

nikolai! in addition to all the events of the games, the additional trauma bond they would have from the very ending of MW2 when he saves them after shepherds betrayal when soap is so near death and nik swoops in to save his life? i think the two of them would be very close friends c: i like to imagine that they send each other holiday & birthday gifts/cards and stuff like that even if they dont always spend lots of time together on a regular basis, but they're still very important to each other. that kinda friendship <3

✨my unpopular opinion about this character✨

honestly i dont know if i really have any unpopular opinions about him. i do very firmly headcanon him as being mixed (specifically to me hes scottish & puerto rican) and transgender, but thats more just headcanons

✨one thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon✨

this probably sounds silly and i know i just said it doesnt matter but the only thing i ever get hung up on about with him is his rank thing. i wish that in in CoD 4: MW they had either started him off as a lieutenant (the actual rank under captain) or had him just be a staff sergeant (the actual rank after sergeant) in the later games. going from being a sergeant to a captain would mean that he did the 2 years of officers school which includes earning a whole ass degree (which is a requirement for becoming a commissioned officer in the british military as well as the us military), graduated as a lieutenant, and then been promoted to captain.......all within five years??? it just doesn't make a lot of sense 😅 the idea of him being a mustang is pretty appealing and honestly now that im talking about it the fanfic potential there.................hmmmmm *opening ideas document* anyway i pick this because [SPOILERS FOR THE OG MW2 AND MW3 CAMPAIGNS!]

i dont mind his death in MW3 because IMO he would be crushed by survivors guilt after ghost & roach's deaths at the end of MW2, so i see him dying as hopefully an opportunity to be with them in an afterlife or even a reincarnation scenario if one is inclined! and for me him roach and ghost all dying solidifies them as my OT3 because i really dont think they all could have lived without each other anyway. thats honestly my biggest beef with the reboot trilogy; not only did they deny soap captaincy, they fucking took roach away and then they left ghost a fucking war widow at the end of MWIII and for fucking what????????? FOR WHAT, SLEDGEHAMMER??????

#sincerely thank you so much i genuinely love talking about this stuff so much this was so endlessly fun for me to write <33333333 :hugs:#i do have some probably less popular opinions about reboot sergeant mactavish but im just not that into the reboot franchise so eh #except reboot gaz. he is everything to me #also sry im one of those guys whos unfortunately had so much direct contact w the military in my life that that shit drives me fucking nuts #and if it seems like theres someone from the og games im pointedly not mentioning in this post. there is #also sorry mustang is 100% an american term for a service member that enlists and then after being enlisted goes through their branches OCS #and then becomes a commissioned officer but i have no idea if theres an equivalent nickname for that in the british royal army sorry #and also yeah so when you see me writing captain mactavish speaking spanish. that is why #hardstyle answers #captain john soap mactavish #captain mactavish #09 MW2 #not strictly roach content

instead of supporting disney's latest cash grab can i suggest watching The 7D instead? it's a spinoff series that came out 9 years ago that disney cancelled prematurely during season 2. it's hilarious and well animated and some of the writers worked on Animaniacs so that's how you KNOW its good.
