Hey.

She is a walking, waving and (occasionally) talking advertisement for Imperialism and conservative politics and I blame her (and every “southern belle” in the USA) for providing a “good,” white, female face to mask the hideous slaughter and injustice carried out in her name.

You’re treating her as if she was an ignorant child. Every single Royal can, at any moment in time, abdicate. Unlike the victims of colonialism she wasn’t oppressed. She enjoyed great wealth and privilege as a result of her position. Something she could have renounced at any time. Instead, she continued to enjoy her

I just about took a spit take when I read that line, assuming time really is meaningless now. But then I looked up the premier date and realized it was just very wrong.

The first MCU musical? I’m sorry, have you forgotten Rogers: The Musical already?

Also that Amulet’s... uh, amulet is passed down through generations. I think the very family-oriented story that they’re telling in this show, and in particular with Kamala’s maligned (and probably misunderstood) great grandmother, that this just fits more. So it’s kind of cool that they’re keeping the major character

the experiences that tenser experiences are trans experiences. it’s not really ‘stretching the metaphor’ if the first line that is said to this character is “there’s a new hormone in your system.” like... that’s what happens when trans people medically transition, it’s not a stretch if it’s obvious.

I am very rarely in the business of telling people they are wrong, but I feel like I need to make an exception here.

I love so much about this show, but I don’t want to do a whole essay, so instead:

It is most definitely NOT “one of the best sci-fi movies of 2022.” It is the single best movie of 2022 regardless of genre and nothing else comes close.

Damien Wayne was right there!

he’s not gonna fuck you, dude

He’s not one of you, either, and he will never know who you are, which makes your delusion all the more sad  

one of the most innovative men to ever live.

Yawn, another (liberal) author for a video game website trying to take a hit at one of the most innovative men to ever live.”

Never takes long for a Musk bro to show up and post something cringy and hilarious.   

Inquisitors are explicitly not Sith.  Sidious and Vader are the only Sith.

They absolutely insist on getting squished by my Wasp every single time I requisition one.

Emily blunt was never gonna be Sue Storm.  They cast Jim as Reed so they can cast Pam as Sue, Dwight as Johnny, and Michael as the voice of a CGI Ben and do a work place comedy on D+

This is even worse than that. There’s just no real way you’re getting even a studio flat for £758 within reasonable commuting range of the parts of London the Royals hang out in. £1000+ would be more likely.
