2012 LOKI HAD NO IDEA THAT HE WAS LOVED AND CHERISHED BY HIS MOTHER, FATHER AND BROTHER.

Can you please give me a will to live? Or just remove all of my insecurities depression anxiety?

oh yeah, i forgot to tell you all. i killed god, so i’m God now. lemme know if you want anything

narrator: she was not fine

Okay can someone please help me understand WHAT HAPPENED TO VISION? I mean we saw white vision (which was made of original vision's solid vibranium body) then we saw the talk between 2 vision's and we got our original vision's memories back (white vision becoming real vision With vibranium body) then in the end when hex got demolished we saw vision vanishing????? I mean shouldn't there be a physical lifeless body of SOLID vibranium?? Like in infinity war even when the energy source was destroyed we still saw the body. But here, when hex got over, vision's energy source was also over but we could still have that solid vibranium right??? BUT IT WAS VANISHED????? I'm really confused on this one

I would like to say one thing to the Loki Fandom:

This show is Tom's baby. Yes, many other creators collaborated to make it happen, but if you think for a second the whole thing doesn't rest in his ridiculously handsome hands, you're wrong. He's the title character. The one, the biggest, the brightest Loki. If not for him, this show would not exist.

I say again, this show is his baby. It's his ART.

Remember that when you're publicly shitting on it.

Remember his dedication to the character, and to the Fandom. Remember that playing Loki is a labor of love for him. Remember that acting is his passion.

If you've ever had a passion--created art, or built things, or designed anything--you can put yourself in Tom's (and the other creators') shoes.

How does it feel when somebody nitpicks something you created from your heart and soul? How would it feel if they straight up shit on it, and on you for creating it?

How would you feel if you also had deep affection and appreciation for the people who were shitting on it? How would you feel if you were hoping to please them with your authentic, heartfelt creation--because you and they share a love and passion for the same thing--and they responded with scorn and vitriol, and refused to see the value of what you created, simply because it wasnt exactly what they were hoping for?

Critique is one thing. Constructive criticisms, sure. But damn, you guys are being straight up nasty.

Seriously, people. This is shameful. You can do better.

Hate me in the comments if u like. I said what I said.

I would love to get a hug from you big guy!

i've been seeing all these posts about the vest and how nat wore it in infinity war and how cute it was when yelena got excited about the pockets and all of that is brilliant and wonderful and should be discussed.

however

i can't get over the vest being the first thing yelena bought for herself. how, in the scene where she shows it to nat, nat is clearly underwhelmed by it. it's just a vest. but then yelena explains why it's so important, and then natasha says it's cool. and yelena says, "i knew you thought it was cool", which as a little sister myself, am almost certain translates to "big sister approves of my vest, time to rejoice". and it strikes to the core of yelena's feelings that their family was real and nat really is her big sister and she just wants her big sister to like the vest she bought because it's the first thing that's ever truly been hers, both physically but also as something she chose. her childhood was fake (as natasha keeps insisting) so all yelena has is this vest and the opinion of her not-sister who she still thinks the world of.

and then

at the end of the film, yelena gives natasha the vest. and i truly believe that she's able to do this, to part with her symbol of freedom and autonomy, because she's healed. her family was real, it was real to every member of it. and the red room, the organization that took her mind and personhood from her, is finally destroyed.

yelena looks at her big sister who says she's her big sister, who is insisting that she's going to face this next threat alone, and she's like, "this is a person in need of a cool vest". but maybe she's also like, "this is a way to prevent her from forgetting me again". but also maybe she's really like, "my big sister might need a reminder of her own autonomy, but also that she has a someone who always has her back."

yelena doesn't need the vest anymore, because she can be sure that she's her own person without it. and natasha's been her own person for a while now, and so the vest becomes something different. it's yelena saying that she has nat's back. it's a reminder of family. and it's given casually and effortlessly, because that's how we love when we love unconditionally.

More Beautiful After Being Broken

This is literally the best thing I read about Barbie movie! And it's shocking how people still can't grasp these thoughts after watching the movie cause it was very clearly shown??!!

What About The Kens?

I'm already seeing guys complain about the Barbie movie end, how they wanted Kens to be equal in Barbieland but were only given a small part on the Cabinet.

That's the point.

You're meant to feel bad for the Kens. Believe me, women aren't partying over the 'Returns to Matriarch' ending. Some will be, but the ones who also clocked the meaning behind it won't. Most women will also feel bad for Kens. Because it's an exact parallel to how women are treated in reality.

Men, you're meant to be upset. You're meant to question it. Because you're meant to feel it, and feel what that is like, so you can finally understand women. You're upset at seeing it in a movie, now imagine living it in reality. That's being a woman.

Kens were shit on so you could feel what it was like for women this entire time. Kens were being used as a placement so you could see yourself in a woman's shoes. A world dominated by the opposite sex. When Ken leaves, and sees male presidents (All men) for the first time, men being doctors and lawyers, etc, realising he is more than just a prop for Barbie, that was on purpose. Because that is the feeling that Barbie gave to women. It's why you cheer for him at first before he goes a little overboard.

It's exactly why the real world was an exaggerated Partriarchy and Barbieland an exaggerated Matriarchy. Neither wins. Neither is equal. None of them change for the better. It's why you should want women in the real world to be respected, and Kens in Barbieland to be respected.

The thing is, women also didn't win. Not in the real world. In Barbieland, yes, but not anywhere else. The real world didn't change. But you didn't notice, did you? That Gloria (The mother that helped Barbie) also didn't get a position on the Mattel board? It was still all men? Her idea was ignored until it made a profit, and the men will likely get the credit? She'll still just be the receptionist? The women representing the real world didn't get anymore opportunities, neither did the men in Barbieland.

I was hoping that Gloria would be offered a position on the board, and that the Barbie Cabinet would introduce another entire Cabinet to represent the Kens, but neither happened. They're complete mirrors.

But which one did you actually notice? Which did you actually care about? Now tell me again the ending was unfair. Because it was. For both parties. That's the point.

The difference is, Barbieland is fictional. You will walk out of the theatre with the reassurance that at least it's not real. Women won't. Women can't. Companies not giving women equal opportunities or voices isn't fictional, and that was just one example. There are no women presidents (USA at least) for us to go look at in the real world. We don't have somewhere to go to realise it could be different for us like Ken did. Barbie and make believe is all we had when we were kids, or even now.

You're supposed to be mad, just not at the movie.
