So, am I alone in hearing, any time "Do They Know It's Christmas?" is played, a segue from the line "Do they know it's Christmas time at all?" right into the horns that then lead into "You're gonna make it after all." in The Mary Tyler Moore Show theme?

What If: Captain America Were Revived Today? #44 (April 1983) by Peter B. Gillis and Sal Buscema; Original Image by John Romita Sr.
In this What If? Marvel tale, Captain America is unfrozen in 1983 rather than the 1960s. Without the leadership of Steve Rogers, The Avengers disband. Meanwhile, a Captain America imposter, who calls himself a "real American," has decided to use his newfound influential media status to publicly support a National Identity Card to "deal with illegal aliens,” to suggest that members of civil rights groups "ought to think seriously as to whether or not their actions contribute to the strengthening of communist enemies," and declare that if those groups tear the country apart with protests, martial law is justified "for the peace to find a solution.”
Neighborhoods with large black populations (e.g., Harlem) are walled off and forced into poverty, and one character even mentions that Jewish people are being “put back into camps.” The right-wing politicians make sure that things like this aren’t shown on television, keeping the majority of the American public ignorant of the horrors committed with their indifferent support. The public are simultaneously told that with some sacrifices, America can be free once again. The fake Captain America confronts a group of peaceful protestors, and he is shot by a sniper (in what reads like an inside job), allowing the police to have “reason” to attack the protestors. The imposter does not die and instead uses the attack to provide more reason for the violent crackdown against protesting groups.
When the true Captain America is unfrozen, he is horrified to see what America has become, especially with his emblem stamped all over it. He immediately seeks out the resistance forces (who clearly represent the Black Panther Party) and joins their cause, stating that "the wrongs [he's] seen will take much more than one man to right -- but [he's] got a name to clear, a costume to unsoil-- and a country to die for!!"
By the time Steve joins them, the resistance only has one chance left to stop the American downfall: a political convention where the "America First" party will be able to secure its support to sweep the national elections and allow them "to return America to the pure and great nation [the] forefathers envisioned."
The resistance strikes just as the convention begins. The Captain America imposter is no match in a fight against the true Captain America -- especially against a Steve Rogers who's fucking pissed. ("Get up so I can knock you down!!")
With the imposter knocked unconscious, Captain America addresses the convention crowd, warning that an America that does not represent all its people does not deserve to exist at all; that liberty can be "as easily snuffed out [in America] as in Nazi Germany" and "as a people, we are no different from them."
The crowd realizes that the man speaking before them is the true Captain America and cheers. Captain America holds his hand up and silences them, stating that he will not allow them the chance to simply replace one idol with another. He alone can’t undo the horrible damage, and he pleads that there’s still a chance for the people to “find America once again.”
Fascism doesn’t change its tune, just its singers.

I feel like the Herbert gets a lot of shit for wearing a suit everywhere, but everyone just ignores the fact that Dan has been wearing the same dry ass white sneakers for 2 movies. Like he wore that shit to serve in a fucking war.

Ghoap secret relationship expect they haven’t been trying to hide it at all. Everyone else is just to oblivious to the obvious pda they two have been displaying.
“Si, I think you just need to fuck me in front of everyone.” Johnny looked into Simon’s eyes, his electrifying blue eyes meeting with the familiar dull color of his lovers pupils. Simon couldn’t help but spit out his tea, an uncomfortable wet spot now staining his jacket. “Huh??” Simon asked, Johnny still holding that determined face. “I said I think yo-“ Simon put a finger up to his lovers mouth, feeling a headache come along due to the stupidity of the others statement. “I heard you already- I’m asking why the fuck we should do that??” Simon said, glaring at the other. “If you fuck me in front of everybody then they’d all know we’re a couple!”
“You just want me to fuck you in front of everyone” Ghost pointed an accusatory finger at soap. Who didn’t try to meet his judging stare.
“So what, maybe I do” Soap mumbled, glancing away to look at a now very interesting dead fly on the wall.
“Look at me when you say that, you brat”
“No, you didn’t even listen to me! Your boyfriend!”

someone said they might be trying to establish a basis to claim that Spock and Chapel were actually in a secret relationship all throughout TOS and that’s actually the most monumentally terrible idea i’ve ever heard
i hate you (whoever you are) for bringing that up in my tags and i also hate myself for never considering that possibility and now i can’t stop thinking about how terrible of an idea that would be if that’s where they’re actually planning on going with this
(even though i don’t think it would actually make any sense for that to be what they’re going for since they would still, presumably, have to break up for long enough for Christine to get engaged to Roger Korby but hey SNW has never let canon get in the way of their bad ideas before)

So i have been visited by the spirit of neurotypicality today and started ironing sheets and tablecloths that were waiting for 2 years to be ironed by me (i wish i was kidding, but it has really been 2 years) + tomorrow i am back at work (hello again, depressive states) and then have a family visit over the weekend, so i will probably not be able to post offerings for a few days! And most likely I'll be less active in general (unless i will be on tumblr instead of working. Again.).
Tbh i miscalculated how much time the ironing is going to take me and thought I'll still have time for today's offering, but well. Time is an illusion anyway, amirite

I wanna thank my irl friends who follow me here and also my beloved mutuals as well as followers who still send me kind messages and try to interact with me and my stuff even if I'm bad at doing it myself.
Honestly, things haven't been that great with me lately, so... it means a lot to me. Honestly. <3
#personal#i had to make the tough decision to drop out of school last week#i didn't exactly want it if i'm being completely honest here#but certain stuff was preventing me from getting further so i knew the teachers are gonna ask me to quit over at our teams meeting#i instantly contacted my nurse about my situation. and she got me a doctor's appointment which was yesterday#where i kind of broke down a little. not because she didn't grant me the sick leave i thought i was going to get#after feeling down and sleeping terribly for weeks#but because she actually *got me*. like. she actually listened to me and figured out some stuff and told me that#what i'm going through and what i've been going through for years would make anyone depressed#so i couldn't help but cry a little because yeah. i'm so tired of never being enough no matter how hard i try#because my brain's wired a certain way and it makes me slow and kinda clumsy and inattentive at times#which. you might guess is not ideal at today's work environment. or studying-wise even#so instead of granting me sick leave (she did say we can change that at anytime though) she told me to wait for that phone call#from the unemployment office. which i should be getting tomorrow. or well. later today#and talk to them about this. to see if they can offer some solutions. or if we can figure something out#'cause i'm getting closer to my 40s and not getting anywhere and it's wearing me out and tiring me out#because i clearly can't help myself or change my ways on my own#i managed to get some work last week though. at the local youth house. one shift though but money still#but i haven't been getting those offers a lot during the past few months so it's not enough to support me obviously#so i definitely need something else. and i hope i can get help. that someone could help me#i should finally get tested for adhd next month too. i don't know if i even have it or if it's gonna change anything but#at least i'd know#anyway i needed to get this off my chest. cause i'm kinda crying a little bit even now just thinking about this whole thing#sorry

Happy 39th anniversary to Top secret! 🕺🎶🐄🪖🎂❤️
This movie gave us Juilliard trained Val Kilmer first appearance on the big screen and blessed us with his face, talent and voice for the first time.

Trivia :While Nick rivers didn't have a lot of character development other than being a pretty face and good voice.. Val fleshed him out by learning the guitar for 4 weeks (and getting brutally pranked by zaz), he based his personality on elvis, James Dean and Marlon Brando. He sang the songs himself and he even got his diving license during the water bar fight scene.
youtube
He also released the top secret album with the character name Nick Rivers on it.

Here's a forward version of the reverse Swedish bookstore scene 😂❤️

Btw : zaz were so impressed by Val's ability to catch the Falling books everytime 🥺❤️😍
