it’s facial reconstructions of prehistoric humans!!

like, look at this part-homo sapiens, part-neandertal man from well over 30,000 years ago:

doesn’t he just look like a dude you’d wanna hang out with? like he probably washes dishes in the kitchen with you, and has excellent weed

what a charming fellow. what stories he probably has to tell. i’d definitely go shoot the shit with him on Contemplation Rock after i’d finished my day’s work carving a bone flute for the autumn hunting ceremony, or whatever

people have been people ever since people first became people, i tell you what

they all had lives and histories and families and friends and dumb gossip and games they played and total bullshit in which they believed wholeheartedly

they all argued about the nature of the world, and of themselves

they all sang songs

they all drew pictures

they all buried their dead in graves, and they buried their dead in graves well before they did a lot of that other stuff. they buried their dead with flowers, with panther claws, with the bones of animals they’d killed, with the bones of family members who had died at the same time or earlier. they buried their dead with their arms folded across their chests

they fell in love

they took care of their old and their sick and their disabled, even when it cost them

they made new things, and worried about what the new things meant for people everywhere, as a whole

If It’s Scripted, It Should Be Captioned

Dear Content Creators,

If you’re making a video and following a script, there is absolutely no reason for that video to not have captions included (and I’m not talking about the auto-generated kind). Be kind to your deaf and hard-of hearing audience (or hell, just people who don’t want to turn on the sound) and include the freaking captions!

fewer bisexuals who are suave and seductive

more bisexuals who are incredibly awkward around their same-sex crushes b/c they were never taught how to flirt in gay

every bisexual who reblogged this feels specifically individually targeted by this post

Bold of you to assume I know how to flirt with different-gender crushes in the first place

I just feel really strongly about neutral good Steve in 616 but also part of me wants to be convinced otherwise

Lemme switch out the laundry and I will try.

In the strict Nine Alignment system of D&D, Steve very much falls into Lawful Good. Heck, if he were a player class, it would probably be Paladin, though his deity would probably be something like ‘the American Dream’ (which could be an interesting discussion of theology, much like the Christian God means very different and disparate things to very different and disparate people).

The thing with Lawful Good is that people get hung up on the 'Lawful’ bit of things. Strict adherence to the law for the law’s own sake is the trademark of the Lawful Neutral.

Law is about trustworthiness and honor (check, check), obedience and reliability (erh… and check). It can also however be about close-mindedness (nope), reactionary adherence to tradition (nope), judgmentalness (hell yes) and lack of adaptability (to situations, nope, to his morality, doubleplusyes).

The virtue of Chaos that he holds to is freedom (but that might be more of a domain of his deity than it is a function of his alignment).

However, when you take the definition someone who is neutral in aspect of the Law-Chaos alignment, you get someone who “is honest but can be tempted into lying or deceiving others.” This does not mesh with my reading of Steve at all.

So, QED, Lawful Good.

Now, you’re probably saying “Mr. Booty, what about Civil War? What about the time that Steve was Nomad because he was fed up with the US government?”

I would say that he took those positions not in spite of his alignment but because of his alignment. Now, it’s said as 'Lawful Good’ but Steve is most definitely 100% Good, and probably about 50-75% Lawful. Written law, or its substitute of the execution of the will of the government, in these situations was A) Evil and 2) arguably, not-Lawful. The law is not always Lawful, which is an important thing to realize. I need to reread the Nomad stuff, but the whole reason that Steve stood against the SHRA is that it put otherwise normal people, i.e. the people close to the superhumans, like Aunt May, in harms way, and the SHRA would, by virtue of requiring people with superpowers to register, would make Mutant Registration compulsory, and we all know how he stands and that matter.

Steve may not be 100% Law all the time, but he very much is a Lawful character.
