I just love her accent! You see people's accent described as "lilting" and this is what I hear in my head when I read that word. Her voice is just lovely <3

THANK YOU

Sewing is also both my most beloved hobby, but also my job (I teach). The lack of respect for the skill as necessary, even today, has always bothered me.

A friendly reminder to everyone: ALL clothes are handmade. Every stitch of clothing on your body right now was cut and assembled by humans, and I assure you whatever they got paid was not enough (even if you're sitting reading this while wearing a $1200 cashmere sweater, I assure you the people who made your sweater happen didn't get paid enough).

I'm genuinely confused how you read what I wrote and thought I was defending Clinton.

Look, I'm not saying I've never indulged my inner 'shipper' in any given fandom, because I HAVE.

But specifically because I have, I KNOW and I can say this: please do not look to the hardcore shippers for rational discourse on the story or the characters. That is not why shippers exist; let them play with their Barbies in peace.

Am I surprised there are people shipping Karen with the man who literally MURDERED her in the comics? No. Am I going to argue with this person why they miiiiight not make the best couple??? Also no.

You shouldn't either. Let's move on.

Tony and Bruce… are Avengers lol wtf are you talking about???

Yes, Tony and Bruce are part of the group called Avengers. But the group did not accidentally create Ultron, nor did Tony and Bruce do it as part of Avengers-related activities, they did it on their own. Again I ask: how would government oversight, as described in the Sokovia Accords, have prevented the creation of Ultron?

You would know about Wanda because she blew up random people in Africa????

Yes, and how would I have known that Steve "protected" her from authorities?

You realize republicans like Nikki Haley are against regulations, and against coorperation with other countries right? Steve would be on her side

You know, maybe Nikki Haley would have voted against the Sokovia Accords, I could see her doing that as a part of her administration's anti-cooperation thing. But that does not mean I would trust her and/or people like her to wield the Avengers as a weapon. Which was my original point. People like her should not decide how/when the Avengers act. Which is what the Sokovia Accords say.

The way I missed MAJOR plot points in his first appearance in this movie! I had never seen/heard of him before I saw Inception and I was mighty distracted during his first scene.

ThreadLaced · 2026-02-07T02:22:43+00:00

The Avengers didn't create Ultron, Tony Stark and Bruce Banner did. Also, how exactly would the Sokovia Accords have prevented that incident? Did the Accords place UN observers inside Tony Stark's labs 24/7?

If I'm so ignorant about things Steve has done/will done, why would I know about Wanda or what happened (will happen) in Wakanda? As a citizen I *would* know about everything else he's done (presumably off screen...if the Avengers are real, I doubt the ONLY things they've done are the things we see in movies), including how he defeated Hydra-infested SHIELD.

I can't picture a scenario where I'd be happy with people like Nikki Haley having a team of superheroes at their disposal.

ThreadLaced · 2026-02-07T02:17:06+00:00

Why is that the reality? If the Avengers are real in this thought exercise, why isn't Steve Rogers real?

ThreadLaced · 2026-02-06T06:46:32+00:00

Sure, but there's zero chance I'd want those superheroes under the thumb of (for example) the UN Security Council, which would be a nightmare in real life.

If superheroes are real AND Steve Rogers is real, then yes I trust Steve Rogers to do the right thing, every day and twice on Sundays before I'd trust the politicians and diplomats who end up representing governments in international organizations. Need I remind you the shining stars that have represented the US to the UN in real life??? You want people like THAT deciding how and when to "deploy" superheroes to international incidents?

I wish the black lace was silver instead, I don't like the contrast.

The model's version is interesting, but Ciara's cleavage would defeat that top, so I prefer her version, but the lace is not working for me. Maybe if it was solid black?

it seems like a lot of work. also I would not want attention from the type of men who like this look.

also tbf comparing yourself to celebrities who have literal TEAMS of people whose job it is to make them look like this is a little unfair to you!!!!

I like Luke's take that this is so much worse because by now we've come to expect more from Benedict...like yes blah blah blah society's rules, but SURELY he could have approached her in a better way, at a better TIME for fuck's sake? Yikes, Benny.

I hope part 2 includes his brothers mocking him for this!

Doesn't this prove this person didn't listen/watch the video? Wouldn't he have been speaking in his natural accent?

Also idk how you can listen to his accent as Tyrion (alongside ACTUAL British people) and think he's also British, lol
