Love super chill amy

One of the things I hate most about people saying Captain America is a “bland patriotic golden boy who’s just the good guy” is that it completely erases such a huge part of Steve, which is his hope : Steven Grant Rogers is someone who has had everything and everyone stripped away from him, and has lived through more sorrow and pain and grief than it’s humanly possible, and yet, YET, who chooses to keep seeing the good in people, chooses to still fight for mankind because he firmly believes that there’s something worth saving, even though his own life has gone to shit : He lost his parents, his childhood best friend (oh sorry, first he lost Bucky and then he learned that he didn’t actually die, but was tortured and brainwashed for years by the very organization he fought to eliminate, destroying his life in doing so, organization who, by the way, thrived for decades when Steve was frozen, powerless against life moving on and taking all his friends away, one by one)
So yeah, Steve is a hero, not because he got some serum from a german scientist, nor because he wears an american flag on his suit, but because he gets back up. When the world hits him, over and over and over, he gets back up, because others need him. When the void in his life gets so big it feels like it could swallow him, he gets back up, because there are still people who can’t defend themselves. When he feels so very alone and out of time, he gets back up, because he has to, because this isn’t about him, this has never been about him, this is about his hope for humanity, and what he always believed it could be. Steve fights for Greater Good, but he also fights for you. Even if you don’t believe in yourself, when you’ve given up, Steve has hope. When the world is telling him to stay down and stop fighting, he gets back up.
He gets back up, and that’s what heroes do.
Steve: *sees Trump is president* *calls Thor*
Thor: Captain! What a surprise! It’s been so long, we must catch up over a strong glass of mead. How is Earth? Is it-
Steve: yeah yeah everything is great, can you put Loki on please?
YES
when the mcu tries to gently Just Good Pals steve and bucky i want to laugh at them because, like. they were the ones who structured their arc, from the very beginning, as a story about leaving a plucky sweetheart behind in the states when you ship out. it could have been lifted wholesale from practically any wartime romance filmed between 1940 and 1950. “i just wish they’d take me into the army too– i’d go with you, show that fuhrer a thing or two– just promise me you’ll take care!” “darling, don’t worry, you can do your part right here at home– it’s ever so important to the war effort!” it’s the theme of fucking “tender comrade” and “since you went away” and “mrs. miniver” and i could go on and on
the part where steve gets turned into a tall dangerous hillshire farms beef log is the surprising science fiction twist; but the part where he grumps about being Left Behind by a uniformed hottie is 1000% period-accurate romantic dramedy that could have been screenwritten by david o. selznick. i’m sorry mcu i don’t make the fucking rules. this is just how it is. give them their v-e day kiss already and let me rest
😭 Best friends
I’ll be there for you, ‘cause you’re there for me too.

The scene that killed me
Klaus and Ben combining their powers (1x10)
Like, this is Loki
And this is Tom. They have different colored hair.
This is Castiel
And this is Misha. They wear different clothes.
This is Tony Stark
And this is Robert Downey Jr. They have different names.
Simple
your condom breaks
you feel a lump on your breast
your friends are ignoring you
you’re stranded on an island
you got rejected by a crush
you get into a car accident
you got stung by a bee/wasp
you got fired from your job
you’re in an earthquake
your tattoo gets infected
your house is on fire
you’re lost in the woods
you get arrested abroad
you get robbed
your partner cheated on you
you’re on a ship that’s sinking
you fall into ice
you’re stuck in an elevator
you hit a deer with your car
you have food poisoning
your pet passed away
you fall off of a horse
you or your friend has alcohol poisoning
you have toxic shock syndrome
your house has a gas leak
