I still can’t get over the fact that they didn’t put the boat scene in Anne with an E. It is literally one of the most iconic scenes in the book and the 1985 movie. But worst of all was that they totally teased us by having Anne and Co. literally prepare to get in the boat until Mrs. Barry interrupted them.

Things we should do in English class instead of just Shakespeare:

Compare & contrast a Rick Riordan book, an original Greek myth, and/or a retelling like Song of Achilles

Instead of talking about poetic devices, look for imagery, symbolism, and color theory in comics/graphic novels/Webtoons (Lore Olympus is a great example!!)

Analyze a Broadway musical instead of a Shakespeare play. (There’s SO MUCH to unpack in Dear Evan Hansen)

Have half the class read a book, and the other half listen to the audiobook. Do the audiobook kids have more similar interpretations? How much does the inflection and (unsaid) thoughts of the narrator influence ones takeaway?

10k notes and I’ll show this to my English teacher

Did Thanos get his own theme song and villainy montage? I don't think so. The new Queen villain is here, Agatha Harkness

Me as soon as the post credit scene begins to play:

oh so when wanda maximoff creates an alternate universe to deal with all of her trauma she's "super impressive" and "the most powerful person in the mcu" but when i do it i'm "using unhealthy coping mechanisms" and "should go to therapy" smh so tired of these double standards

Women are not made whole by men. Women are made whole the moment they enter this world.

Me waiting for an end credit scene after both episodes of WandaVision because Marvel has conditioned me to do so:
