The more I watch the scene with Phillips telling Steve they’re not going to rescue anyone, the more I feel Phillips is playing him. “Nope, we’re not going to go after them, because – and let me point out very clearly and specifically on this map exactly where they are – it is in dangerous territory and I will not order anyone to go in there”.

“Incidentally, Rogers, I know you have hero-issues coming out the wazoo and you want to be respected as a soldier and a man, so I will diss you to your face, call you a chorus girl, and basically wind you up to the point that you do something damned reckless and stupid without orders, because you’re the kind of dumbass hero who will jump on a grenade for your fellow-man or chase down an armed man while unarmed and barefoot in your shorts and I know this because I watched you do it before.”

“And Carter, if you’re about to say something, just don’t, because no one needs to know that I know exactly what I’m doing. It’s called ‘dance, monkey, dance’. And if he dies, wasn’t on my orders.”

You notice that he’s not exactly surprised about Steve being Captain Dumbass Hero. You’ll notice he’s also not massively surprised when Steve returns.

Colonel Chester Phillips. Didn’t get to be head of the SSR because he’s just a pretty face.

Importing this, since Phillips needs more love.

Every Bucky Barnes Line in the MCU

fangirlfiction:

I mean, not that I needed a reason to rewatch the entire Captain America trilogy (+ the other two movies our boy is briefly in), but I gave myself one. And that was to compile every line of dialogue that Bucky Barnes speaks in the MCU. Since we all fell in love with a man who only has 46 minutes of screentime across the MCU, I thought that it might be useful for fanfiction writing. Or just because. 

Also, I included the Winter Soldier’s Russian lines as well. I gave the English translation, what I believe the Russian is, and how to phonetically say the Russian. But please keep in mind, I don’t speak/know Russian and I am relying on a few different translators, so I apologize if I got it wrong!

After hours of hitting pause and play, I present to you, all 116 lines out of Bucky’s mouth, sorted by movie!

Why we’re upset about the purge

If the purge only hit child porn and porn bots we would be perfectly fine with it. But that’s not the case.

We’re upset that after years of us complaining to Staff about the bots and child porn that it took Apple removing the app from the store for them to take action.

We’re upset that many artists, both safe and not safe for work, were purged. Many of them make their livelihoods through their art.

We’re upset Staff continues to lie to us and avoid our questions. It shouldn’t be that hard to tell us the truth.

We’re upset Staff made it impossible to search for NSFW content and the subjects they’ve deemed NSFW even if our settings allow it. For example “Yaoi” is currently one such search that now shows nothing.

We’re upset that despite this all the bots are still here. Many people are saying they’re actually getting worse.

We’re upset that Staff continues to make changes to how the site functions without informing us until it’s too late.

We’re upset that we still don’t know all the details about what blogs get purged and what ones don’t. Some say any blog marked NSFW is a target, others say it only takes an external link in the bio, others say it’s only artists, others say it’s anyone.

We’re not upset they’re trying to get rid of kid porn. We’re upset they’re failing at it in every way possible!

I knew a NSFW wlw blog. Its owner was a great girl who made sure all her content was appropriately tagged and marked as NSFW, she answered all questions truthfully and helped every girl who came to her asking for advice. I didn’t follow her because she posted a lot of porn but I checked her blog once a week to see what she’s up to and, admittedly, enjoy her NSFW posts.

This girl, who was careful and appropriate, who did literally nothing wrong, got purged.

But when I look at a post, its first ten notes are still porn bots.

Fuck you @staff

The very worst part about this kind of thing is that conscientious taggers are always the easiest targets.

The porn bots, who have every reason to lie and mistag and annoyingly insert themselves where they’re not wanted are harder to catch. The nice people who are a benefit to the site get hit instead.
