Confessions of a Dreamer

Genuinely, thank you so much for this.

whenever i look into a historical monarch who doesn’t get talked about much and is just kind of a blank spot in my understanding of the historical narrative, 95% of the time what i find is pure white hot blistering capability. a pencil pusher for the ages. a 39 year reign with no more than three hours of sleep a night. there aren’t any good stories from his reign because he systematically caught and stopped all catastrophic good stories before they could start. you shrimply must respect it

Yes I think that Baran Al-Hashimi has the most gorgeous cursive you have ever seen in your entire life but her actual handwriting is chicken scartch. Fully illegible. Yes I think she is a Do Not Disturb warrior and only has three tabs open at any given time and they're ALL for a research article. If she wants to buy something online or Google a fact or quote she is opening that tab, doing her business, and immediately deleting it. Yes I think she has one of those privacy screen protectors that turns black when you tilt the phone and yes I think her phone brightness is always at 0% and Trinity launches some crazy rumors about what she's doing on that phone because why tf is it so locked down. And also I firmly believe she can type 130 wpm and is definitely smug about it and it most certainly sounds like rain pummeling a metal tin when Dr. Al-Hashimi gets near a keyboard because she's smashing the fuck out of those keys and yes I believe the med students come up with some kickass nicknames for her because of that

that scene in cap 2 when nick fury took that sharp turn and lost the fake cops after him and the gunshots subsided and his gps thing was like ‘getting you to a secure location’ and you really thought, you Really Thought!!!! he was Safe But then it got TOO quiet and fucking ominous music started playing in the background and the previously unfocused camera focused on this dude, decked in ALL Black, in the middle of the fucking street, holding a fucking Bazooka, and He BLOWS up furys suv, sees it coming straight for him, and takes ONE(1) nonchalant step to the Side???: UNPARALLELED 

#CA:TWS does a really good job of establishing characters’ competence BEFORE they tangle with the WS #Fury evades a coordinated death squad before the WS almost casually blows his car to shit #Steve takes out an entire elevator of STRIKE guys bare-handed before he fights the Soldier and barely holds his own #this also makes Pierce a FUCKLOAD scarier for being someone willing to slap the Soldier around #that movie did a really good job establishing characters’ skill/power levels by showing rather than telling #and they converted those insights directly into suspense in a way the MCU has never done again     (via galwednesday)

once I snorted a fat line of nuance and everything started depending. watch out

*through gritted teeth* no one has ever loathed themself into getting better, you have to love yourself a little to change
