mcu releasing cacw like: “sorry mackie ur character who is actually a crucial part of the cap storyline historically can’t get any significant screentime in cap 3 yeah we know it’s the final movie sorry we had to have an endless fucking montage of maria stark trauma porn bc it actually wasn’t already clear tony was emotionally unstable and had mommy and daddy issues followed by the wandavision cooking special for,,,,,, reasons,,,,,,,,,,,, and oh yeah did we forget to mention this is actually another avengers movie and the first spiderman??? best we can do is a scene where sam’s mean to bucky lol …… what about steve rogers??? wait whos that uhhhh is he even in this script?”
(it’s bc they didn’t care about developing sam at all until he was their “only” option for cap and could safely not be shipped with steve if they ever actually interacted wait what huh who said that)

Ringo wrote a song - part one (part two, part three)
While in Auckland, New Zealand, the Beatles talk to Bob Rogers about Ringo's songwriting, 25th June 1964
George: As far as Ringo and I are concerned, we'll leave the songwriting to...
Paul: Oh! Excuse me...
Ringo: Err, excuse me, Paul is going to sing the one I've written!
Paul: Now, I can't… I can't quite remember it…
Ringo: Well I'll—
Paul: But even so—
Ringo: Just for a plug, Paul
Paul: We've just… Ringo has written one, called 'Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue'… a beautiful melody
Ringo: No—
Paul: A sincere thought
Ringo: That’s it, yes
Paul: 'Don't Pass Me By', it's called
Ringo: Don't miss… that's what it's called
George: But Elvis killed it
Ringo: Elvis killed it… what?
Bob: What?
George: When he did it
Bob: Elvis killed it?
Ringo: No, he didn't
Paul: No, but you really… this is Ringo's first venture into songwriting
John: Are you going to sing it for us now, Ringo?
Ringo: I'm not going to sing it, Paul's going to sing it
Paul: {singing} Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue, yeah-yeah
Ringo: It's got a blues feeling
Paul: Blues feeling, you know. {singing} Now, darlin', I know
John: I thought it was going to be Crumbly & Western?
Ringo: It was going to be a Western—
John: Crumbly & West… one of those
Ringo: —but Paul gave it the nicest Blues feeling man, and it knocked me out
John: It knocked you out, even though you wrote it?
Ringo: In fact, I'm going to get a tape of him singing it for me very own
Bob: Are the Beatles going to record it?
Ringo: I don't know...
Paul: You never know
Ringo: I don't think so, actually — I keep trying to push it on them every time we make a record
John: And we always try and do it, but unluckily, there's never quite enough time to fit Ringo's song on… because he never finishes it.
Ringo: Is it finished?
Paul: It's finished
Ringo: We finished it

Monument at the Top of Rogers Pass Marking Completion in 1962 of the Transcanada Highway (Canada 1), Glacier National Park, British Columbia, 2019.
Additional stretches of the road were completed later, but opening of the Rogers Pass road made it possible to drive from the Atlantic to the Pacific without leaving Canada. I fondly remember a trans-Canada trip in that year.

roger who's nickname for buggy was "junebug" cause they found him in june and his hair is the same color.... buggy who hates it at first until he's climbing into his captain's bed at night bc of a nightmare and his captain says ever so softly, "oh junebug, c'mere"..... the nickname getting adopted by everyone on the crew until nobody calls him buggy anymore..... them meeting up with thr whitebeard pirates and getting irrationally jealous when the whitebeards use the nickname bc that's their nickname and who the fuck do these people think they are getting so close to their junebug.... rouge who has never met buggy calling him junebug in her head.... roger whose last words to buggy that fateful day before loguetown was "you shine like the sun, junebug. never stop"..... buggy who waits for years after the execution for a call from one of his former crew members, hoping every time the den-den one day it'll be rayleigh or seagull or gaban or sunbell on the other side with a familiar "hey junebug", except no one ever calls and the years go by and buggy slowly learns to stop waits, and gives on being the roger's junebug and learns how to be buggy the clown, buggy the genius jester, buggy the immortal, everything and anything other than junebug
