Damn, Thor has some ears.

I’m Asian American male. Born and raised here by immigrant parents. Honestly I never felt like that girl. I loved marvel comics as a kid and never really gave it a thought that they weren’t Asian. I wanted to be gene Simmons from kiss and wolverine and never thought I can’t becaus I’m not white. My identity stems…
Exactly. I’m of Asian descent and I grew up watching TOS. I never aspired to be like Sulu because he was Japanese, I aspired to be like Kirk because he was cool. It seems pretty narcisistic and reductive for people to need self-validation on that level of Mary Sue-ism. If the colour of one’s skin really doesn’t…
I have no opinion on Ghost in the Machine, I never read it and most likely will never see the movie. I’m a white male in America - nearly everything is made to appeal to me in one way or another. My thoughts on this video:
Now, I’ve never been a minority, but I would suspect that if you feel that you are “the other”, say, because you’re a minority in a media culture that exists to please the majority, any sort of representation that acknowledges your existence must be satisfying. It feels like being part of society instead of something…
The only problem is this mistaken and culturally-poisonous viewpoint that someone needs to look the same as you do in order or identify with them.
Woo, Launchpad is back!
Still waiting for the Covenant to show up.
Between the cloaked figure with what looks like a plasma caster and the same figure walking through what looks like an Engineer’s necropolis, Shaw may be playing a role in this story similar to Lawerence Fishburne’s in the last Predator movie.
Dammit all, I like Mon-El. He’s a fish out of water who’s just trying to find his way. Yes, he’s bro-ey. That’s hardly unreasonable when you’re the prince of the Kryptoninan bad boys. And his relationship with Kara makes perfect sense when you consider that he’s from a hierarchy where strength is respected above…
Nothing can ever be worse than Red Tornado.
I come back to this same point any time we talk about the feminist narrative of Supergirl - or the overwhelming awesomeness of Mon el and how easily he does everything: The narrative of Supergirl does not and can not KNOW it is a narrative. Mon el and Mxy going after Kara and her reaction to them can’t avoid being…
I grew up a white evangelical and I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees this. I shed my faith for a number of reasons, but I can’t help but feel like the attitudes of those around me were a huge part of why I couldn’t stand it anymore. Honestly, there’s so much good, positive stuff in the Bible, stuff that I think…
The be even more specific, it’s white evangelicals. They don’t break down these approval ratings into specific religious categories, but, if you look at the exit polling from the election, it was white evangelicals that supported Trump at the highest rate. 83% of white evangelicals voted for him, which is a higher…
That is one lucky chair.
Id say more more disturbing than Fitz cutting his own wrist was Simmons stabbing him over and over while he was pleading with her to stop. That shit was fuuucked up.
The star of last night’s episode of Agents of SHIELD wasn’t the action or the classic “robot decides mankind is too…
Yeah...my alternative fact of the day is that he’s a good writer.
Chuck Wendig is a fantastic writer... from a certain point of view.
Please, let's not call this "rape." I'm sure that birth can sometimes be traumatic, but calling it "rape" does a real disservice to survivors.
