Do you want to hear about some real Hollywood...
I’m about to ruin your whole fucking night.
I have this friend, Elsa. Okay, so we’re friends in the loosest sense of the word. We were closer, but we’ve been drifting, and I’ve let it happen because she was never the type of person I wanted to stay connected with anyway, you know? She’s one of those girls that means well, but she tries to smooth my rough edges. She...
Woman: Can I have birth control?
Government: No.
Woman: I got pregnant because I didn't have birth control and I don't want the fetus. Can I have an abortion?
Government: No.
Woman: I gave birth to my child but since I wasn't expecting it, I can't afford daycare. Can I have help paying for it?
Government: No.

A stiff wind is blowing through New York, bending the buildings and rustling the glass. You can almost hear it howling through the canyons of the avenues.

Dude: So, yeah, isn’t that cool? It’s a combo lighter/flask.
Leah: That’s cool, but we don’t really have need for it in the store. If you want to send us an e-mail with your other products-
Dude: I don’t do e-mail. I don’t believe in computers.
Leah: (flummoxed) We take comics and cds, so if you want to bring those in to-
Dude: I don’t do cds. I...

Do you know why dogs bark at the mailman?
It’s a reinforced behavior. They bark because they feel a threat to your threshold, so they try and yap to scare them away, and then, you know what? The postal worker leaves. The dog won. The behavior is validated.
So I just want you to know that all the dogs who bark at mailmen are defending their home every single day, and every single day, the threat goes away. Puppy victory.

No, but seriously, who is the creative director...
And I’m actually kind of pleased with Black Widow’s costume, but like, seriously, just picture the creative team responsible for this poster, because I imagine a bunch of white dudes sitting at a round table discussing poses and showing sketches.
and then obviously some guy was like
Well, let’s turn Black Widow around, gents.
Show everyone the goods.
Show

Dad: Rob Liefeld is apparently really nice to all of his fans.
Me: Yea because he only has about two.
Anonymous asked: I think there's one point you didn't note, and it's the standard female body-type in comics, the unrealistic proportions and fixation on large breasts on virtually any woman that isn't teenaged or underage. I agree on costume design, but I also think the unrealistic ways female bodies are portrayed in comics also play into the costume's design.

Let me organize some thoughts on hypersexualized...
People keep asking me about what a GOOD SUPERWOMAN costume looks like as a basis for comparison, and about clarification for the constraints of objectification in comics. First of all, I’m not really here to educate you and I’m uncomfortable being a source of information. Do you know what my qualifications are for this discussion? I’m a girl and I work in a comic book shop....
ganitsirk asked: I wouuuuuld but they're all tagged weird shit like "benedict cumonherbitchtits" and "ALL THE CREYS ALL THE CREYS" because what's really making me tired of the show are the obsessive people in the fandom who ship everything that moves. Or doesn't. Sherlock and the lamp in episode two? SHIPPED SOMEWHERE. Lestrade and his donut? GOTTA BE AT LEAST 5 FANFICS ABOUT...
Whenever I start to feel too good about myself,
I remember that we are effectively vessels for water that have evolved to walk upright and transport water from one place to another.
Despite being water, we act like little floating islands looking for a bigger land mass to connect to. We spend our lives basically blind, staggering with swagger or strutting in a show of false bravado on broken afternoons to pretend like we actually mean...
Today's homeless-in-Hollywood encounter:
He is tanned and carrying a skateboard. He stands in the doorway to my shop.
Him: Hey, can you spare a couple dollars?
Leah: No.
Him: How much is a drink?
Leah: $1.
Him: (grabs a coke, sees I'm writing something) OOOH, what is that? Can I write something here? Can I write "23"?
Leah: No, this is a till log for my boss.
Him: THIS IS FOR YOUR BOSS! *drops a fistful of change everywhere on the counter*
Leah: Have a nice day.
Him: JESUS, YOU TOO

lavisant asked: So who is your favorite X-Man or X-Woman? :)
Anonymous asked: Do you hate him because he is only 5'5" with a 5 inch uncircumcised Wolverweenie?
thegeek531 asked: So, Ive told you how you are beautiful before. I hope you know enough of me to know that I see more than just your physical side. Because I have a word for that as well- Awesome. Because you are brilliant, witty, verbose, funny, fierce, geeky, quirky, and adamant. (that last one means you are like Wolverine.) ;-)

The other day I made a remark to one of my male friends that a particular girl I had just seen had a particularly nice portion of her physical anatomy. This prompted his girlfriend to shoot me a hateful glare and respond with:

To say that I cannot understand something because of my gender is a sexist...

Oppression’s obviously a real thing but far too many people on here seem to think it’s interchangeable with “everyone is reacting negatively to the fact that I’m a bigoted asshole”
The subjectivity of opinions and the entitlement to your own beliefs are valid
But one can also observe if the aforementioned opinions and beliefs are devoid of basic human decency and that’s just...
