Not “Only my reading of canon is correct” or “Interpretations are subjective and all valid” but a secret third thing, “More than one interpretation can be valid but there’s a reason your English teacher had you cite quotes and examples in your papers, you have to have a strong argument that your interpretation is actually supported by the text or it is just wrong and I’m fine with telling you it’s wrong, actually.”
I’m doing a Philosophy paper on Asexuality. Please reblog if you think Love without Sex is possible! I really need the data. Like if you think love has to have sex.

How does one send an evil boop??? Asking for a friend
Evil Boop????? What!?!!
I find it kind of stupid how 'half full' vs 'half empty' is framed as an optimist/pessimist thing. If it starts full and gets halfway drained, it's half empty. If it starts empty and gets halfway filled, it's half full. If you don't know the starting state it's both simultaneously.

Not to be obnoxious, but like, I always say this! First, to get this out of the way, the only one I might argue on is Kamala, just because I'm pretty sure there have been team ups and stuff, but also because the young avengers each stand for someone who has lost something. Nate feels like he's going to lose his future, his choice. He stands for people who are shoved in a box and left to rot. Cassie is for those who have lost their tether, who need to climb away from their pain. Kate is for the people who feel like they don't have tge right to feel this way, who feel wrong about their pain. Eli stands for those wronged by rascism, and Kamala could fit there, because unfortunately there are people who ignore that rascism is a lot more than just being mean to black people. Billy and Teddy are those who feel like who they love is wrong, and personally I feel like tommy represents people with mental health struggles that most overlook, such as ADHD. Even Vision 2.0, he represents the people living in a shadow, expected to be someone/thing they're not. They're also teenagers. They're YOUNG. They were there to remind everyone that we struggle too, that pain can take many forms and to believe in the kids. Yelena is a fully grown adult. Peter, while he starts at 17, is about a good 5-7 years older than the original team when they first start out. I don't know enough about Harley to point anything specific out, but riri, she's part of her own group, doing their own thing to help young readers feel comfortable. Let different teams be different and let each hero be one in their own respective right. Everything these characters do shapes us, but we need to respect where they fit in, and what the catagories we want them to fill actually mean and do for the people who read these and connect, who find a little bit of themselves on those pages. Billy eas the first Jewish Queer character I had seen, and i felt seen. And when I first read Ms. Marvel, I saw a young girl about my age struggling with the same mental health struggles and persevering. These characters are special each in their own right, don't take that away by doing the very thing all of them fight against, don't stick them in a box they don't fit in. Let them thrive, and let them stay special ♥️
MCU Young Avengers blogs are why I'm heterophobic actually
You're right and you should say it.
just your friendly neighborhood gremlin probably won't post too much, just because I don't really know what I have to offer to the platform. my goal is to be as chaotic and funny as possible, while still spreading knowledge about my special interests. Said interests include, but are not limited to: The Scarlet Witch, Young Avengers, Keeper of the Lost Cities, words, etymology, random knowledge that I don't know what to do with, wonder woman, Hellenistic Polytheism, writing, art, and other things that relate to the above topics please message me if you have any questions about the above topics, or wish to be friends! 😃❤️ thanks, Seraphina ❤️
