things that turned out shockingly better than expected:

i really hope that in the end of age of ultron, after the credits, instead of introducing a new bad guy, its just a 30 second clip of natasha looking at the hammer, checking to see if there is someone arround, and picking it up as if it was as light as a feather, and smirking, then the screen goes black
Ya know what, I’m just gonna “headcanon” that Cap realized he could lift the hammer, but chose not to because he knew it’d be awkward for everyone there.
That’s why it moved slightly, because the hammer…
A Bucky/Darcy drabble.

“Remind me again why I have to pretend to be made of more metal than I already am?”
“Because, Tin Man, this is a group costume, and you’re the perfect fit for the character.”
“Not Stark?”
“One, Stark is not my boyfriend; two, he and Pepper…
someone give me an AU where natasha pretends she doesn’t give a flippity flap about Halloween for months and then the day of she executes a series of expertly planned events to terrify every single one of her teammates
Here’s a basic rule: if you’re reading or watching a Shakespeare play, and you’re not imagining the actors standing in front of a mosh pit of jeering Londoners waiting to throw vegetables at the stage, you’re doing it wrong.
Shakespeare might have written the best works in the English language, or given us profound insight into the nature of humanity, or whatever — but his works wouldn’t have survived to our day if he hadn’t been popular when he was alive, and he wouldn’t have been popular when he was alive if he hadn’t been able to please the crowd. And that includes a lot of dirty jokes. A lot.
Sometimes in incredibly inappropriate places. We’re here to rescue a few of those for you, and retroactively embarrass the heck out of your fourteen-year-old self, who had to stand up in English class and read things that, in retrospect, are absolutely filthy.
This isn’t about the stuff that always does crack fourteen-year-olds up in English class, but is totally innocent: the “bring me my long sword, ho!” sort of thing.
But the kids who lose it every time the word “ho” is uttered are closer to the spirit of Shakespeare than the teacher who demands they treat the words like museum pieces.
Sure, it would be awkward for teachers to explain the Elizabethan double entendres to their students — but pretending they don’t exist makes Shakespeare seem unnecessarily stuffy and difficult.
So we’re going to start with the most obvious innuendoes, and move on to some seriously advanced sex punnery that is probably going to blow your mind.

Friendly reminder that yesterday when my mom took me to Walmart she left me alone in the toilet paper section and this guy started hitting on me and I said “Sorry, I’m a lesbian.” and he was like “Oh my god I’m so sorry I thought you were a boy.”
Soda just spewed out my nose
THAT WAS A PLOT TWIST
That was the best plot twist i’ve read in a long time
marvel give me a short about sharon’s undercover time as a nurse/steve’s neighbor and that one time she had to fight off ninjas from steve’s apartment while he was like, making dinner and sitting alone reading obama’s biography
With the music turned up really loudly because he’s a gentleman and he thought the noises were her having sex.
where is my black widow movie
where is my black widow movie
where is my black widow movie
- where is my black widow movie
WHERE IS MY MOTHERFUCKING BLACK WIDOW MOVIE
okay but why are there no ladyhawke aus of anything ever
because like
- it’s a great movie to begin with
- it’s medieval-fantasy setting which is a fun trope to play with
- it has star-crossed lovers sort of and everyone loves angst
- it has lycanthropy/shape-changing in it with a hella cool twist
- there’s a whole bunch of different kinds of characters so it’d be easy to fit everyone in roles

Repeat ad nauseam until you retire.
I have many pictures of signs warning me not to take pictures.
The thing that sucks about mental illness is that if you aren’t depressed enough, suicidal enough, bad enough, nobody cares. Nobody cares until you reach their standard, and that standard is when your problem is bad enough to effect them
The amount of people who can relate to this makes me equally incredibly sad and immensely angry
people need to fucking pay attention to this post
We call ships ‘she.’ We call our war machines ‘women.’ We compare women to black widows and vipers. And you’re going to tell me it’s not ‘lady-like’ to scream, to take up space, to fight and demand respect and do whatever the hell I want. You’ve looked at nuclear bombs and been so in awe that you could only name them after women. Don’t try to down-play my power.
BOOM.
a fucking pirate king at that
And it’s awesome because she started as this fucking proper Lady who was expected to marry a wealthy and accomplished, but one she did not love, but instead fell for the blacksmith and became a pirate, fucking shit up and taking names.
And she rocked every fucking second of her story, from Lady to Pirate King.
no but people who don’t like pacific rim because it wasn’t logical or scientifically accurate like
yes
we know
we don’t care
it is an homage to that genre. the original godzilla was a dude clearly in a rubber suit stomping cardboard tokyo and we were supposed to just…
in a choice between
iron man 4
or
BLACK WIDOW
the answer is
BLACK WIDOW
What’s even worse is that RDJ would make the same choice
