Just another self-indulgent blog. I'm a 21 year old angry psych student, part-time receptionist and lazy witch (ask me off anon about my witch blog). Muchly queer, mostly harmless. I mostly reblog art and fandom things. Avatar is a painting by Françoise Nielly. he/him
ancient writers and historians: cleopatra wasn’t especially beautiful, caesar and antony were attracted to her because she was so charismatic and intelligent
all subsequent artists, filmmakers, game developers, etc:
In a movie when a man looks lovingly at a woman with visible emotion on his face that’s gay subtext bc everyone knows straight men aren’t capable of that so that man is automatically bisexual
hey guys, can you please help me take my two month old cat to the vet? He turns 3 months on January 2 and he’s already set for vaccines and such but ever since yesterday this goodboy hasn’t been eating and this morning he’s been lethargic; I have tried everything to get him to eat, tried changing brands wet and dry, and it’s been making me so anxious, I really am a little short rn and I’d appreciate any help I can get.. A reblog is massively appreciated too
It’s Christmas night. The festivities are over, and you walk into a neighboring dimension to unwind. You find me sitting at a piano that plays forwards and backwards at the same time, playing a Christmas song that doesn’t exist in your world.
joss whedon: loki tortures and murders people for fun, and, despite being the god of CHAOS, is a fascist who says things like “it’s the unspoken truth of humanity that you crave subjugation”
taika waititi: loki is an annoying little shit who day-drinks, puts on theater about himself, and fucks his way to the top
joss whedon: loki and thor are gods, so they always talk proper and posh and in cryptic riddles so for no reason. it makes them seem more powerful and mystical.
taiki waititi: one time when they were kids loki turned into a snake because he knows thor loves snakes and then thor went to pick up the snake and then loki turned back into himself and screamed “yueagh, it’s me!” and then he stabbed thor
Taika Waititi has a deeper understanding of Norse mythological accuracy than Joss lol
It’s because Joss Whedon looks at all mythology and religion through a Christian-atheist lens. You can see it in Buffy and even a little in Firefly too. Even when he writes about other religions and their deities and practices, it still comes back to Christianity.
He wrote Thor and Loki as modern Western Christianity would portray Jesus and the Devil as opposed to how they actually are in mythology or the comics
That…is a really good addition as to why Whedon gets Thor and Loki
wrong and why Taika did a far better job with their
characters/personalities in Ragnarok
