yeah, speaking actual long-long term there will absolutely be a new iron man, captain america, thor, etc...it might be in 15-20 years but it’s coming eventually and they’re doing the proper table setting now.

While it is a somewhat minor detail, I’m really struggling with that pants steaming part. Not even because it’s creepy behaviour, but because that sounds horribly uncomfortable for the person wearing the pants. Like I read that sentence over several times as I couldn’t understand why someone would do that.

Or as I like to refer to them, “Herbert the Lesser” and “Earth’s Worst Living Science Fiction Writer.”

My two immediate reactions from just glancing at the Top Ten:

She threw enough shade to combat climate warming.

Wow, that was the most polite “This person suuuuucks” I’ve ever read in my life.

People are fucking weird on social media. Either tagging people in on things which will clearly make them uncomfortable or just amplifying shit in the worst way possible.

I thought the spirit of Halloween was Paul Rudd looking even babier-faced than usual:

“Shatner and I will go to space... ensign O’Malley: you go work in the distribution factory.”

Aren’t these people a little old to be acting like Hot Topic customers?

Why? Why do you care? It’s a made up space ship show about made up space ship people, on a made up space ship. What difference does it make if they cast actors that don’t necessarily look like the made up cartoon space ship people for the real life made up space ship people?

If the show is good, the show is good. If…

Had the change not been made: “there is something to be said for the fact that Marvel refused to replace a man with a woman in its promotional materials, especially in light of Scarlett Johansson’s lawsuit and Disney’s tone-deaf media response.”

I was worried the world had passed me by, but then I read literally every comment on this terrible thing that I’m sorry to admit I wasted time reading, and it appears that everyone has had the same basic reaction, which seems to be some form of “I can’t believe I wasted a part of my life reading and thinking about…

DID YOU FUCK MY MOM?!
