can this just go viral already, it deserved better
Honestly, I think people seriously misinterpret Kylo Ren’s role as a villain, and not in a “he’s so misunderstood” Draco in leather pants kind of way.
He’s fascinating because he’s one of the few fictional villains that has some stuff in common with some of the real men who do dangerous and deadly things– he’s posturing, he feels persecuted, he’s explosive and uncontrolled, when he tries to look like a cool villain and give off that glib/‘badass’ vibe, it feels forced and awkward, it’s easy to laugh at him, but then he does something incredibly evil and reminds you that pathetic wannabes can be really scary dudes, too. He reminds me of school shooters, domestic abusers, extremely vitriolic alt-right internet trolls.
He doesn’t represent some grand vision or evil master plan like Voldemort. It’s all about outwardly channeling his inner turmoil and rage into self-aggrandizement, getting control over other people because he can’t control himself. He has thoughts, feelings, weaknesses, and at least a little bit of good in him. That doesn’t make him a misunderstood hero. The fact that he’s human and three dimensional and has people who care about him is part of what makes him more like the real evil that walks among us every day in the world.
People are always saying, “Kylo Ren is such a pathetic villain, he’s a whiny emo trying to dress up like a cool bad guy,” but that is lampshaded IN-universe, that people think that’s lame, too, even Snoke. People keep thinking that Kylo was supposed to be a cool villain like Darth Vader and that the movies failed miserably in portraying him as one, but I don’t see how.
White dudes are just pissed that they don’t have any heroes to identify with in the new trilogy, but see a lot of themselves in Kylo Ben, so rather than admit that they can be (and usually are) the villains in other people’s stories, they feel the need to justify that the one character they identify with is actually a hero…
Huh, it’s almost like it kinda hurts to only be represented by villains in blockbuster movies or something…
*sips this scalding hot tea*
he dumb as hell
What if Present Mic and Aizawa were already married and the class 1-A students just didn’t know?
The other teacher knew, in fact most of them went to the wedding. It’s also not like Mic and Aizawa were deliberately keeping it secret. In fact Mic having a husband was common knowledge, his husband just apparently didn’t make public appearances which no one really thought much about. Hero’s families staying out of the public eye was normal. Aizawa on the other hand simply didn’t like to talk about his private life with his students. Some of them noticed the ring on his finger during class, and rumors about whether or not he was married started going around the class but no one really figured it out.
Until one day it’s a Monday morning and everyone is groggily sitting down when suddenly they hear the school intercom beep on and a loud announcer voice yell “GOOOOOD MORNING U.A HIGH SCHOOL. I JUST WANTED TO TAKE THIS MOMENT TO GIVE A VERY HAPPY FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY TO MY BELOVED HUSBAND SHOUTA AIZAWA!”
The entire class stops dead.
Looks at Aizawa.
And loses their collective minds.
Space is the Place.

Commission for @allmyfavoritethings724! Bucky and a VERY NEW AND TINY FUBAR!!!! (And the rest of his litter!)
COMMISSION SALE (DEC 7th – DEC 22nd 2017)
Two full-body flat-color characters, simple background, for just $20!!!
The world’s tiniest dragon must defend his hoard, a single gold coin, from those who would steal it.
Suggestion: The dragon’s definition of “steal” is somewhat loose. It still allows the coin to be used and bartered and change hands–but on one condition: the dragon must be with it at all times.
They become a familiar sight in the marketplace.
“Here’s your change, ma’am. One gold piece.” The merchant holds out a palm, on top of which rests a tiny, brilliantly colored creature clutching a single gold coin.
“That’s a dragon,” you say dumbly. “One piece… and a dragon.”
“Yes.”
You cautiously reach out and attempt to take your change. You tug. It holds. You tug harder. The dragon lets loose a tiny, protective growl.
“Ma’am–no, ma’am, you have to take the dragon, too.”
“Sorry?”
The seller notes your dubious expression. “Not from around here, are ya?” They shrug. “Them’s the rules. Take the coin, take the dragon.”
They wait expectantly. Wondering how the world has so suddenly gone mad, you slowly, slowly hold out your hand.
The dragon perks right up. It scampers from their palm to yours with the coin clamped in its jaws and scales your sleeve with sharp little claws.
“Have a nice day, ma’am,” the merchant says. “Spend him soon, now, you hear? At another booth, if you can. He likes to travel.”
From its perch upon your shoulder, the dragon lets out a happy trill.
Bonus: the coin eventually passes to the rogue in a group of travelling adventurers. The dragon becomes the mascot of the entire group, and they lay out a small pile of coins for him to sleep on every night, clutching his coin like a teddy bear.
This is so pure I am in love

A kid at work has decided that they don’t want to play with the kitchen set, and don’t want to play Barbies, but would instead rather take the them-sized stove and the Barbie-sized stove and pretend that they’re mommy and baby stoves.
The baby stove is currently at stove school, which is for stoves.
The mommy stove is at work, and apparently makes soup for a living, which I know because this kid is has been chanting, “I MAKE SOUP AND I DO IT ALL DAY / EVERY SINGLE SOUP SECOND, EVERY SINGLE SOUP WAY,” louder and louder and higher and higher to the point where it’s now either being sung by the world’s loudest mouse or the world’s most out-of-breath six-year-old.
