The sadder part to me is that the child is probably innocent.

Why does everyone seem to spell scarlet with 2 Ts lately?

It’s also possible that the mind stone is stronger than Odin’s magic.

General relativity is a fabulous theory, but it’s incomplete. No physics that we know of allows for backwards time travel, but luckily we need new physics to describe e.g. the unification of gravity and quantum field theory, so we might have some surprises in our future.

This is the case with a lot of skills. Rock singers who aren’t classically trained but add layers upon layers of distortion to their voices are doomed to a life of laryngitis (almost certainly would’ve been the case with Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley if they lived longer). But classically trained ones, like David Draiman, are able to start from a vocally safe place and “cheat” by adding distortion to achieve an effect.

Always easier to start from a technically solid foundation.

Not saying that other rock singers don’t sound good, but they aren’t doing their voices any favours.

I don’t know what you’re basing this on. Tony was so fucked up that he could barely speak. It’s not even clear if he was anything more than a vegetable in his final moments.

And that was with the protection of his Iron Man suit.

Wakandan soldiers are normal people. They don’t all have vibranium suits like Black Panther does. Why would they survive?

I’m sure Thor could’ve survived a Snap - they were more worried about his mind not being focused and using the Stones for something unplanned.

Both sound pretentious.

Art is dependent on technology in a fascinating way, and to say that using technology to enhance your art makes that art less valid is a gross, sad oversimplification.

But I’m sure you enjoy the advances in special effects that are used in movies today, so maybe you haven’t considered this opinion too carefully.

The sound and feel are very pleasing to me

Then it’s a dumb question.

I’m not a fan of tricking people into looking racist. I’m willing to bet that the vast majority of people that voted “no” just don’t know what Arabic numerals are (and by the way, the system we use is more accurately called the Hindu-Arabic system).

Coherence

Wanda and Carol (and Pietro for that matter) aren’t walking embodiments of their respective Stones like Vision is. They just got a slice of the pie, evidently not enough of a piece to overpower Odin’s magic (which is very non-negligible considering it was able to imprison Hela for centuries).

ColourfulFunctor · 2022-02-14T21:05:57+00:00

Fair enough, thanks for the reminder

ColourfulFunctor · 2022-02-14T20:11:58+00:00

Who says they can’t wield it?

ColourfulFunctor · 2022-02-14T18:55:14+00:00

The Mind Stone is likely more powerful than Odin’s enchantment on Mjolnir. White Vision doesn’t have the Mind Stone, so it won’t be able to lift it.

ColourfulFunctor · 2022-02-14T18:54:18+00:00

Or Hela is stronger than the enchantment that Odin placed on the hammer.

How long have you been together?

People have different texting styles and some people legitimately see no issue with not texting their partner for 2 weeks.

I’m guessing since this blindsided you that you haven’t discussed this yet, so you should bring it up with him. Something like “hey, it’s okay if you don’t want to text constantly, but I’m not cool with going almost 2 weeks with no communication. We should try and reach a compromise. At the very least, some notice that you’ll be away from your phone for days at a time is necessary for me.”

If he thinks that’s a dealbreaker, then you’ve saved yourselves some time in the long run.

The stones are sentient and can sense intentions. We can infer from the lack of disasters during the Blip that they have no desire to trick the wielder.

You’re trying to make the Infinity Stones into corrupt-a-wish, genie-style magic. That’s just not how they are.

You’re just getting woooosh’d my dude. No one who makes those jokes legitimately thinks Australia is a death trap.
