Isn’t it a lovely thought, that when other people see you, they’re entranced by the lines of your cheekbones and the shape of your eyes and the gentle glow of your skin and the sound of your laugh and how that piece of hair always falls just so? Isn’t it lovely that people fall in love with the little things about you that you never even thought to notice?

Badass women, being badass all the damn time. And they really are as diverse in personality/appearance as the colours of a rainbow

One of hardest endings to watch, and yet one of the most meaningful endings to a movie

Looking at some of the comments/rants/discussions I’ve written on reposts, and going, “Huh. I’m not as awkward as I thought. This is quite funny/articulate/presentable.”

When does the underestimation of ourselves end? Who knows? I know I’m going to continue being scathing about my abilities right after I post this. 

Even with all the sentimental one-liners (“believe in yourself”, “you deserve the world”, “be kind to yourself”), its still hard to believe those when your mind is constantly telling you different.

Damn you, brain. Stop making me be embarrassed of myself when I have no reason to be.

You, of all people, deserve a happy ending. Despite everything that happened to you, you aren’t bitter. You aren’t cold. You’ve just retreated a little and been shy, and that’s okay.

I’ve learned that to break that awks moment, you should apparently say something like, “Oh are you walking this way? I can walk with you.” Who knew it was possible

*says goodbye to friend*

*starts walking in the same direction*

*awkwardly tries not to acknowledge their presence*

WATCH: The Oregon Zoo in Portland was closed to the public today due to heavy snow – but the zoo’s residents had a blast.

The most important sentence you’ll read in your life: “Not all disabilities are visible.” Repeat that. Say it to someone else. Have them repeat it & pass it on. Awareness is essential.

I wish mental illness was how it is in the movies; crying in your bathtub at 2 am and doing all of these wild things, and someone coming along to save you. But in reality you just lock yourself in your room all day and stare at the ceiling; and the world keeps moving around you but you just stand still.

One of my top peeves with lets-deviate-from-the-books-as-much-as-possible.

Word.

Ok you know what pisses me off the most about the Agents of SHIELD fandom?

People who are wishing for it to be canceled.

And look, I’ve said the same thing about Arrow and I ignore it when people say it about my favorite shows, but let me tell you a little something.

Agents of SHIELD is the most diverse cast I’ve ever seen. Who is the biggest badass? A middle aged Asian woman. Who was her ex husband? A black man. Who is the young protagonist? Another Asian woman. Who is the big strong mechanic? Another black man. Who are the two Inhumans they recruit? A Colombian who had to learn English and a gay Latino man who frequently spoke Spanish with her.

There’s a lot more, but I think you get my point.

And who’s the main love story? Two white people who aren’t even American. I mean, hell, even their white people are diverse.

And some of you are mad about what happened with Ward and Lincoln, and some of you don’t like where this story is going, but this show has done so much for diversity. I hated how shows like Arrow can be considered diverse just because of one black person. No. Give me my Asians and Hispanics and gays and privileged people and people from the streets and people of all ages and people in interracial relationships.

As a comic book fan who has read Secret Warriors, I love Agents of SHIELD. There were admittedly some things they did I wouldn’t have agreed on, but it’s an interpretation of the story (an actual interpretation and not just shitting on the source material).

If you don’t like the show, fine. Don’t watch it. But don’t you dare call for its cancellation. People on this site are always calling for diversity, and if a show like this is cancelled, they won’t look straight at the story. They’ll look at the people representing it.

This is simply lovely, not to mention it brings up a flood of nostalgia.
