The nerdbros got real mad about that hijabi "extra" in S4 so not only did they bring her back in S5 but now there's also this guy.

Highkey repulsed that the official line up so far is 6 female characters and 20 male characters. Like is this a joke? And the Xmen line up has only 1 female character.

Listen, I get thematically why Sonic and Shadow’s fights are always relatively close, but just once I want Sonic to yeet Shadow back into orbit. It would be soooo funny.

I just cannot get over the incel stink on Jae’s early romance event. “After your sex is audio broadcast to everyone without you knowing, everyone is really impressed and tells you how good at the sex you are. Your dad is finally proud of you.”

There's something very interesting (in a negative way) going on with the portrayal of female characters in the live action ATLA show, especially when compared to the original cartoon
it's like you can practically feel the conversations that executives had behind the scenes to make it more appealing and "feminist" from their ideals rather than just sticking to the original show's portrayals or exploring things in a more explicitly feminist way
like "how do we make it so the 'woke' think its feminist without agitating the incel women hating nerd crowd"

the fact that these middle-aged men project their fantasies on galadriel is so obvious bc why the fuck would anyone care this much if she "cheated" on her husband? are YOU her husband? why do you care if she is "tarnished" by having feelings for the dark lord? do you think she is an actual saint of a real religion?
they are obsessed with reducing galadriel to the role of wife/mother and keeping her confined in it and defined by it bc they decided she is their tradwife fantasy. BUT WHY? sure, she is wiser and calmer later in life, but she isn't this domestic housewife. she has always been an ambitious politician first and foremost with tolkien, so where does this mischaracterization come from?
galadriel is in fact everything these kinds of men hate. a witch ✅ a man-maiden ✅ an amazonian ✅ her greatest desire being power ✅ ambitious "career" woman ✅ isn't defined by wifehood and motherhood ✅ all men are seduced by her beauty ✅
celeborn is like a presidential candidate's trophy husband. and sauron is her opponent candidate (not her "abuser"), lol. galadriel's story isn't that of a divine feminine saint tradwife stay-at-home mom, so why are you forcing this persona on her?
yeah, tolkien is rolling in his grave. he made extra sure that galadriel isn't defined by being celeborn's wife/celebrian's mother and is an ambitious powerful figure but these "lore purists" completely strip her off of that and reduce her to something she never was...
like, seriously, tolkien made sure that c+c don't get in the way of galadriel's story by making them non-entity npcs in the background of gal's lore, but now these nerdbros are making sure that galadriel's story is thought of as being about nothing more than her being a wife/mother.

A short little rundown of many (though not all) current manufactured controversies that the Capital G Gamers™ keyboard warriors talked themselves into* being mad about. All pertaining the issue of female video game characters not being "feminine enough" for the nerdbro tastes.
~Ozzie
*Once again, we can not stress it enough that people making those arguments are so irony-poisoned that telling apart trolls from dorks genuinely mad about the stupidest things is seeking a distinction without difference.

Thunderbolts*
This was exactly what I wanted, which feels weird, but I'll take it!
It had heart, humor (and not the usual quippy MCU kind). It had something to say, and something pretty meaningful at that. It dealt with mental health in a way even the more stereotypical nerdbros might like.
Also a different kind of final fight than your typical MCU movie.
For those worrying about how Bucky's treated: not to fret! While it's not his movie, Yelena's definitely the lead, he is the wiser, respected(!) leader. This movie also finally agrees with how fans interpret Bucky and what happened to him, IMO.
I feel like he should have gotten a bit more attention, especially considering the topic, but then I'm biased. There was one moment especially when he mentions his past where I was like, 'show, don't tell, people'.
Definitely stay for both post-credit scenes, which shouldn't be a problem because the main credits look pretty cool. The 2nd post-credit scene is where I have some questions though, no doubt intentional on Marvel's part. But I'll put that behind a cut.
The 2nd post-credit scene is funny and confirms we need more of this team. But apparently Sam Wilson disagrees?
Why?! I know it's because Doomsday is coming and that means Battleworld and they need to be at each other's throats before they can team up. But I would like an in universe explanation as well.
Because unless we get more info, Sam just seems petty which wouldn't fit what we know of him. Obviously we did just see this team form and we don't know who's on his, but the copyright thing? I like Bucky, and this team, and this movie (more than Joaquin or Brave New World), so I'm probably biased, but I don't see why Sam would be so against it.
I'm sure the SamBucky shippers will get some great fic out of this. But I am disappointed to be right: back when FATWS aired and the ship got so much attention, I knew they'd 'break them up' somehow.
Anyway, I really hope this team has a future and they don't all die in the big 2-parter.

Now I'm not saying that Elon Musk is definitely a case of "Those who do not pay attention in history class are doomed to repeat it in summer school" as I believe the famous quote goes (My Girlfriend: THATS NOT THE FUCKIN QUOTE SAMANTHA)
But also uhhhhhhh
Their teachings claimed a nuclear apocalypse was predicted to occur soon, as the result of a conspiracy involving Jewish financiers, Freemasons, and war profiteers.
Tumblr media
Antisemitic conspiracy theories
attracted a considerable number of graduates from Japan's elite universities
Rich nerdbros
Tumblr media
attempted to tie its religious ideas to popular anime and manga themes, including space missions, powerful weapons, world conspiracies, and the quest for ultimate truth
All of this shit
Tumblr media
claims of curing physical illnesses with health improvement techniques, realizing life goals by improving intelligence and positive thinking, and concentrating on what was important at the expense of leisure.
Creepy Handmaids Tale shit
Tumblr media
In the early days, Aum was able to recruit a variety of people ranging from bureaucrats to personnel from the Japanese Self-Defense Forces and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police.
Connections to the government, millitary and police
Tumblr media
I guess what I'm saying is, if/when the day comes that Elon Musk and his DOGE cult do a sarin gas attack?
Well
All the red flags were right there

It's especially funny given all the screaming they're doing on Peggy/Steggy posts. Do they not see how silly it looks? Or do they think Fiege makes all the fandom's gifsets too?
I get they're forever bitter that she ~stole~ Steve away or whatever, but her popularity isn't a conspiracy, despite what they desperately want to convince themselves.
My favorite thing to do lately is to enjoy all the new Peggy/Steggy content with all my mutuals who also enjoy it, while watching the Peggy antis scream abut how 'not one single person' cares about Peggy or Steggy anymore.

“Hmm since I messed up this RT run maybe I should try a romance other than Yrliet’s, I wonder what Jae’s flags are?” *googles her romance guide* “Oh.”

the erasure of jewish identities of superheroes bother me so much… that is core symbolism and representation and the creations of JEWISH PEOPLE as a result of what jewish people have gone through. how are you gonna pretend they dont exist.
the christian-ification of superman is my 13th reason. there’s no way you, as an appropriator of jewish beliefs as is, is going to take the most obvious Moses allegory ever and pretend like acktually that’s jesus. and give him BLUE EYES. the excuse from nerdbros is always some shitty word salad about “every character has multiple iterations so there’s no TRUE canon” and then get mad when there’s a black spiderman. it’s the same bullshit when you say scarlet witch is roma and more recently also jewish. like the mcu literally decided that judaism is the same as christianity so the son of a rabbi is like the son of a priest and therefore has religious trauma when the character in question canonically only had religious adjacent trauma because of antisemitic crimes against him, as if daredevil isn’t RIGHT THERE. he has enough catholic guilt to cover it. but no, we’re going to fuck up an infamously jewish character for the hell of it. the absolute disrespect shown to not only jewish characters, but the jews who created them, is insane. there’s no way you can claim to love and respect stan lee and then pull that fucking shit.

Can you imagine how hard the nerdbros will cry if they make Lara Croft canon bisexual? It’ll be hilarious. I’m crossing my fingers.
Like we know they TRIED to make lara and sam canon but got turned down! It’s ten years later! Not only would it be a great opportunity to tell a story that they couldn’t ten years ago, but it would also make incels cry!!! I think that’s a win win situation

i read a few people say that they are worried that if the viewership and ratings for s2 are better than they were for s1, the showrunners may conclude that less galadriel and haladriel is a good idea and cater to the nerdbro incels. and tbh, i'm also worried about that, with them doing an interview with notr (who is really anti-galadriel/haladriel) and reddit. but i'm hoping that it's just them trying to reach as many people as possible and ultimately doesn't say much about their demographic aim.
I doubt it. Amazon approved the whole 5 season plan and they aren't changing it overall. Plus, we just saw they already have mostly written s3 while s2 was airing. Most streaming shows don't really change things since they aren't on that often and don't have an many episodes as the prime-time broadcast US show or soap operas. The latter 2 can and do change storylines depending on what the audience says or if there's a ratings drop. I'm not worried about it at all and majority of the show's general audience aren't shippers or haters and I've seen more positive things from the general audience, which is what matters most.

Are you ready boys and girls? It’s almost time to spin the wheel of “bullshit culture war talking points the nerdbros are going to use as a pretext to review bomb Agatha All Along as if the real reason isn’t their deathly allergy that isn’t mediocre white masculinity!” We’ve all been waiting patiently and now it’s time to Spin! That! Wheel! [wheel spinning noises] Well would you look at that, it looks like the wheel has landed on “Agatha All Along is anti-Christian because it promotes witchcraft!” Join us next time for Wheel of Bullshit Culture Wars and remember, woke is a meaningless adjective that means nothing in our hellscape discourse!
