Actually Only Maybe 30% of the Feelings

@allofthefeelings / allofthefeelings.tumblr.com

I work with children's books. I sleep a lot. I like to collage. When I'm not doing any of those things, I'm probably here. (30-something, Jewish, queer, cis, she/her pronouns,)

After three days of intermittently working, my laptop is officially not charging at all, despite it being officially repaired last week and me making several frantic calls this weekend, so the radio silence will continue until I get a functional personal computer.

And yes, I am using the last *checks* 41% of my battery in part to post this.

Everything going okay? I figured you'd be flailing over the BW movie, and I was looking forward to reading your thoughts in depth, but you've been mostly on radio silence. Which is totally fine! I know how Everything Just Keeps Happening, and it can be overwhelming. I just wanted to check in to see how you are.

Aw, anon, thank you for checking in!

My personal laptop has been having issues up for a while, which meant I could only use it for short periods of time before attempting to pose it like a contortionist so it could regain battery power, but I got a new work laptop this month so I finally caved and sent my personal one in to be repaired and I just got it back! IT IS VERY EXCITING. (It's currently having the exact same issues despite officially being Repaired but I have decided I get to take some time to use it before calling the warranty people because I have been Fandom Computerless for too long and I missed it.)

I have also been in a period of really bad anxiety which was telling me, among other things, that I Did Not Understand Black Widow so I Should Not Speak On It, but TBH not being ABLE to discuss it in depth has made me want to talk about it that much more, so hopefully this weekend I'll be unloading a bunch on @alloftheblackwidowfeelings. I am 100% reading a bunch of things into the movie that aren't there into it, but I am trying to give myself grace to just go with it, because if you only get one movie featuring your fave, you might as well milk it for all it's worth, right?

My only other real plan for between after-work today and Erev Rosh Hashanah on Monday is to see Shang-Chi, once I get over my subway flooding paranoia, which is... I would really like for NYC to not have flooded twice in two months so I could just go to a Marvel movie without a This Many Days Since A Terrifying Natural Disaster countdown in my head as well as my COVID anxiety around the number of unmasked people on the subway, but we live in 2021! so here we are!

Anyway, Black Widow thoughts this weekend seem likely. But over there so I don't bother anyone who doesn't hear it. And thank you again for being concerned. <3

@intosnarkness and @allofthefeelings present a musing: on the fate of children’s characters in the MCU

  • Gusto Gummi: Snapped because Thanos is homophobic.
  • Gargamel: see Gus
  • Pokey the clay horse: survives
  • Arthur from the tv show Arthur: replaced by John Legend after his family got snapped cause he’s better than Clint Barton at this
  • The Kids from Recess: in a reverse of his homophobia, Gretchen and Spinelli make it
  • Mrs. Frizzle: leaves her kids in the ocean. They make it back cause they’re think it’s a test.
  • Gritty: appears to avenge the other mascots

A RASH OF PEOPLE REBLOGGING THE SESAME STREET THANOS SNAP POST, ALL OF WHOM ARE COWARDS LACKING IMAGINATION: “I can’t believe anyone thought to write THIS crossover.

INTOSNARKNESS AND ME, IMMEDIATELY: “Hold our birdseed milkshakes.”

SHE MADE IT EVEN WORSE: the @sidewaystime and @allofthefeelings story

god, Melina is a GIFT.

I’m proud of us for having made it so swiftly to our greatest hits:

  • WHAT IF NICK FURY [redacted] [redacted]
  • BABY BUG HAS GRANDPARENTS
  • CROSSOVER WITH CAPTAIN MARVEL Y/MFY
  • MELINA/LAURA BARTON CRACK SHIPPING

Today has just been the KROQ 90s weekend of our headcanoning, hasn’t it?
