nah since marvel is trending again I’m going to say it again louder for the people in back — canon steve rogers would never have chosen an “idyllic 1950s white pickett fence life” because the only place that man belonged was a picket LINE. the whole point of his character was that his work was never done. there was always going to be another oppressor, another bully, another person who takes advantage of the underprivileged for him to stand up to. from the moment he gained consciousness he, a chronically ill son of a working class mother living below the poverty line, used his voice and his body to protect & fight for what he believed in. I’m not sure there was ever a time pre-super soldier serum where he didn’t have a black eye. he could put the shield down all he wanted but he could never retire from being steve rogers — someone who never once turned a blind eye, who never once wanted a “reward” for his work, who never once abandoned his friends. this isn’t up for debate. this is almost a century of comic book & film/animated precedent. he may have been a man out of time, but in his words “it’s tempting to want to live in the past. it’s familiar, it’s comfortable. but it’s where fossils come from”
percy shoving annabeth and grover down the stairs so that he can stay and hold off the monsters exactly like thalia did and i bet that's all either of them can think about and just like last time they cant DO anything even though this time theyre older and they SHOULD be able to STOP it or HELP or do SOMETHING but theyre just as powerless as they were all those years ago watching a forbidden kid give their life to protect them because of the gods' pride and jealousy
harry muttering to himself as he tries to pick a lock, remembering what parker taught him: not too much pressure on the wrench. nice and easy, like you're holding a woman's hand. gentle, gentle...
me: parker can give that instruction because she has held women's hands because she's bi
If I think too long about Parker constantly poking Eliot's wounds I go insane. Something something he sees himself as this unredeemable monster but she isn't afraid of him in the slightest and she shows him again and again that she's not scared because she knows him, she knows he's a good man despite what he used to do, even if he doesn't see that.

So, as a cook and a former intense athlete, I have to be hella conscious about keeping in shape and not gaining a shit ton of weight by inhaling everything I eat 24/7. This is why, when I can, I like to work with healthier shit to combat all the creamy, sugar and fat filled delicacies I make like 24/7. For everyone like me who’s working on staying in shape or being healthy, this recipes for you, my precious weeb losers. Based on the Honey Lemon Slices from Kuroko no Basuke (my current obsession), I decided to do my own take on this insanely good for you Japanese treat. OH. AND FUN FACT ABOUT THESE. IT’S A SNACK AND A DRINK ALL IN ONE. You’ll find out what I’m talking about later.
~ Honey Lemon Slices (serves: an entire fucking basketball team ayyoo)
-
Ingredients-
2 lemons
enough honey to fully cover all the lemons*
½ tsp cinnamon
½ tsp ginger
7 mint leaves (for later)
4 cups water (for later)
*So fun fact for all your plebs out there: there’s like 5 million types of honeys that vary in not only flavor, but texture. For this recipe, I used a creamy clover honey mixed with a more transparent, thick chestnut honey to combat the sweetness with some bitterness from the chestnut. Use whatever the fuck you want, but if you’re using a raw, or creamy honey, mix it with some water to make it more liquidy and stuff.
~ Procedure-
Thinly slice the lemons, making sure you’re using basically everything but the ends and REMOVE ALL THE SEEDS HOLY SHIT.
Once they’re all sliced, mix your honey with the cinnamon and ginger until it’s all combined. Then, take a glass tupperware container thing and cover the bottom with a thin layer of your honey mixture.
On top of that, add one layer of lemon slices, and then just alternate between honey and lemon slices until you finished all the lemon slices.
Once that’s done, pour in the remainder of your honey mixture so that it completely covers the lemons, and then cover that with a lid and throw it in the fridge.
Keep it chilled for at least 2 days, and no more than 3 days. Try and shake or mix the container at least twice a day so that the lemon juices can mix with the honey.
Once that’s all done, throw it in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes so that they’re hella chilled, and then remove the lemon slices from the container.
After they’re all plated and shit, combine 4 cups of water, 7 mint leaves, and hell, some ice cubes, with the liquid in the tupperware container.
Defeat your basketball foes with your incredible jumps and your moe qualities.
~ TADAH MOTHERFUCKER. You just made a hella healthy treat for you and your shit weeb friends to eat and drink while you’re watching kawaii dudes dripping glittery sparkle sweat all over the B-Ball courts.
Make this during the summer when you want something cold, sweet and healthy to devour, make em when you’re sick to get some radical antioxidants and vitamin C or whatever, just make them all the fucking time I dare you, you pieces of shit. ALRIGHTY. THAT’S ALL FOR THIS RECIPE. STAY TUNED FOR MORE RECIPES THAT WILL DEFINITELY NOT INVOLVE KUROKO NO BASUKE IN SOME WAY (maybe probably i think sort of) Later, nerds.
don’t think this rap talk means i’ve taken my eyes off of rafah.
I saw a comment on tiktok before watching todays episode of Wolfpack and someone was like “I used to really like Harlan but what he did was inexcusable” and I was worried because I really like Harlan (love the entire pack) and then I watched and I burst out laughing when I realized the “inexcusable” thing he did was have sex with some random girls boyfriend in her house. He’s funny, mean, and gay and you think I’m gonna root against him? 🤨
Eliot: ... overconfidence will kill you faster than a bullet any day. Fear's good. Hardison: Oh, I have fear. And doubt. And really serious regrets. I should be fine.
Random stuff I love. Currently obsessed with Lockwood and co. Pls go stream it on Netflix we need season 2!!
