The M C U Whitewashed Wanda And Pietro Maximoff, Their Parents, And Wanda’s Kids. In The Source Material,

Hey I just got some new followers and I don’t have the time/energy to message everyone individually, so here is a big annoying public reminder:

The M C U whitewashed Wanda and Pietro Maximoff, their parents, and Wanda’s kids. In the source material, these characters are consistently– albeit imperfectly– written and portrayed as members of the Romani diaspora, which is a racialized ethnic group that originated in South Asia, and their backstory makes explicit reference to systemic anti-Romani racism in Europe. Adapting these characters with white actors, while still using pejorative language and imagery, is racist. It is erasure. That’s not up for debate. 

I am an American of Cale Romani descent. The content that I create and curate on this blog is meant to bring authenticity to characters which are otherwise deeply flawed representations of my community. I do not want M C U or Wanda//Vision fans on my blog unless you are here to learn about Romani history and anti-Romani racism in pop culture. Check these links: [x][x][x]

COMMUNITY 3x04: Remedial Chaos Theory

Something very familiar and heartbreaking about Ashton saying that what you do for family is let them go when they don't want to stick around anymore. When you're no longer useful.

"I would have done the same" was just him trying to say "I'm not better than them" but those are not the same messages. They think themselves harsher and more pragmatic than they are.

the funniest thing in the entire pirates of the caribbean series is definitely that one scene in At World’s End where they have parlay but davy jones is part of it, and rather than have him stand in the shallows or something they get a big bucket of water and have in stand on it on shore

who thought of that idea? who thought “put davy jones in a bucket of water” and had the guts to suggest it aloud? and then who went “hey that sounds like a great idea!”

at some point someone told davy jones their idea was for him to stand in a bucket of water and he agreed to it

30 days OC challenge.

I could not find a 30 day challenge I liked, so I made one. You can just use the bolded word, or get inspiration from the following ideas. Descriptions, drabbles, dialogue, drawings. No rules, do what feels most comfortable for you. I haven't numbered these, you can do that yourself, in the order you want to.

First meeting. A new friend, sibling, business partner? First impression of someone? Or perhaps someone else's first impression of your OC?

Memories. Good or bad, one or many. One almost forgotten or maybe one they want to make?

Inventory. Special items, a random collection, only the necessities? Or maybe an item they lost?

Fighting. Skills or magic? A general description or perhaps a favourite spell? A special style or move? A situation where it was used?

Anger. What makes your OC angry? Do they fight or is it silent anger?

Formal wear or event. Anything from acquiring formal wear to wearing it to the event itself.

Romance. Is it something they want? What is romance? Small moments or a full blown fairy tale?

Friendship. An old friend or one you just met? What does friendship mean to your OC?

Sickness. A small flu or a chronic illness? How does your OC deal with being sick? Or when someone else is?

Hurt. Emotional or physical.

Travel. A journey they will always remember? One they want to take? Or perhaps somewhere in the middle?

Shoes. Yes, shoes. Anything to do with shoes. Or the lack of.

Sleeping. How do they sleep? Dreams they remember? Have they slept somewhere unusual?

Darkness. Dark night, mood, mind, location, fear. Take your pick.

First light. An early morning. Why are they awake? Lounging on a bed or already on the move?

Above-average. Does your OC excel in something? Do they have special features? How about in the opinion of others?

Water. Rain, river, lake, a bucket of water? Get soaked.

Air. Flying, high spaces, wind, breathing.

Symbols. Does your OC have symbolic features? Do they like symbols? Or maybe they are the symbol.

Fire. Stories around a campfire. Cozy fireplace. Accidents. Or maybe a fiery nature?

Earth. Getting your hands dirty. Life and death. Or maybe just lying on a grassy hill.

Jewelry. Do they have heirlooms? Buying jewelry as a gift? Wearing them?

Hobbies. Physical or mental? Creative, entertaining, useful?

Sensitive. Do they have subjects they avoid. Are they ticklish? Or maybe sensitive to the feelings of others?

Happiness. What makes your OC laugh? A situation they felt happy in?

Keepsakes. Items that have special meaning? A gift? Something they found?

Soft. Clothing, touch, mood, texture.

Embarrassment. Does your OC get embarrassed easily? Maybe they are the cause? Do they like to embarrass others?

Intimate. What things do they consider intimate? Are they willing to share those? With whom?

Imagination. Use it.

That's it. 30 things, 30 days. I will do it too, after I get back home from my trip. Feel free to use on any fandom~

Funny how depending on who's saying it and where, the words "dark fantasy" could mean that the work contains a hardcore questionably ethical kink scenario, or it could mean that at some point there might be some kind of a Skeleton King.
