Thoughts that I keep under lock & key... Home of Loki fanfiction and meta, ACOTAR stuff (mainly Elriel), nerdy stuff, mythology, and a few random things that please me.

this is a reminder that asexual means little to no sexual attraction. Because even though I can understand that asexual can be used as an umbrella term, I've seen so many people mistake it for being aroace (which is little to no sexual AND romantic attraction) and I can't help but feel like some of my identity keeps being misunderstood. If you don't want to say aroace that's fine, I just want to remind people that they aren't the same thing
I think he'd like the Ghibli movies. Howl's Moving Castle, Spirited Away, Ponyo, Princess Mononoke, Castle in the sky, etc. They explore both deep dark and lighthearted aspects of life.
Also, HTTYD movies.
I'm bored, so let's share some headcanons.
Mcu characters' favorite animated movie, because why not.
I'll start:
Loki - Lilo and Stitch (because Ohana + I think he would relate to the main characters)
Thor - Frozen (I think he would kinn Anna, so to him it would be a universe in which he and people he loves have a happy ending)
gotta say, as a chinese american person, seeing people claim jews aren't oppressed because they're wealthier/more educated than other demographics is fucking wild
y'all, being a model minority does not actually mean that those people are "basically white" or that they don't face discrimination. it's not true for (east) asian people and it's not true for jewish people
I know I said I would try to be more positive and concentrate on the meta that matters to me, but I can't with Twitter today when I've had to read from several people that "only one of the Thor films wasn't a flop."
Regardless of your personal feelings, they all made money back and Thor 2011 generally received good reviews, The Dark World was mixed but slightly favouring the positive side even then (guess which character was usually the reason for that!) Even L&T got positive reviews (though I personally haven't watched that one so can't comment further.)
So by no measure does any of that equal financial nor critical flop. At worst you can call the critical response to TDW lukewarm. It still made money. It was also made during the worst era for executive meddling at Marvel, which explains the uneven writing.
I swear the caping like its your full time job for Ragnarok like it's the only one that counts needs to be studied.
Me: Hindutva is not casteist, many hindutva ideologues worked to remove casteism from society and even our PM is not from the upper caste.
Leftie bigot: so you are trying to say that there’s no caste based discrimination in India because our PM is not upper caste??! 🤡
Me: nooooo!!! Can’t you rea—
Leftie bigot: people of the world!! Look this is a hindutva nationalist who denies casteism and is casteist and is an upper caste privileged white person!!!
Me: but—
Leftie bigot: Shut up you hindutva sanghi fascist!!
Me: but I’m not white?!!! Or upper caste??!!!
Leftie bigot: *blocks and runs away*
Leftie bigot: *makes a post on their blog about how to recognise Hindutva nationalism* “If you see them do this — Run!!!”
