okay so I know that the reason there’s a “stark tower” in the MCU is because in 2012 no one knew that “guy with big new york tower with his name on it” was going to have different connotations in fewer than ten years, but I choose to believe that it’s because donald trump just straight up doesn’t exist in the MCU
They have superheroes and no Trump? They must be living in the Good Place
pros of living in the MCU:
superheroes
no Trump
Wakanda exists

A French tourist who accidentally crossed the border into the US from Canada during an evening jog was sent to a detention centre 125 miles away and held for two weeks until she was released.
Cedella Roman, 19, who is mixed race, was apprehended by US border patrol guards in White Rock, near Vancouver, after illegally entering the country.
She said she had not seen any signs marking the border as she ran along the beach before she went down a path to take a photo of the setting sun when two male officers arrested her.
“[The border guard] started telling me that I had crossed the border illegally and told him that I really did not do it on purpose,” she told Radio Canada.
She was threatened with a five-year ban from the US as the officers explained to her that they could not release her because she had been caught on surveillance cameras.
“I thought, maybe I’ve crossed the border, but maybe they’ll just fine me or they’ll say ‘come back to Canada’ or berate me a little bit,” she said.
Ms Roman had been in Canada since September 2017, spending time with her mother and learning English.
She did not have any identification on her when she was stopped, which further complicated her situation.
She was then transferred to a detention centre in Tacoma, a Department of Homeland Security holding facility, 125 miles south of where she first encountered the officers.
“They put me in the caged vehicles and brought me into their facility,” she said. “They asked me to remove all my belongings, as well as my jewellery; they searched me completely.
“That’s where I realised it was really serious and I started to cry a little.”
At the centre, Ms Roman rang her mother who brought her passport and study permits to prove her identity and right to be in Canada.
Staff at the centre, however, said the Canadian immigration authorities would have to validate the documents before she could be released, which led to a two-week stay at the facility.
“It was just unfair that there was nothing, no sign at the border,” said Christiane Ferne, Cedella’s mother. “It’s like a trap … anybody can be caught at the border like this.”
She was released on June 6 once authorities were satisfied her story was true.
A spokesman for the US Border Services declined to comment on Ms Roman’s case but told Radio Canada that crossing the US border at a place other than a customs post was illegal.
“The regulation applies even if the person claims to have crossed the border accidentally,” the statement said.
Last year, 288 people were arrested for illegally entering the US from the Blaine area of Washington State.

This is not news, but it is an important read, especially for people who were previously unaware of the trend of neo-Nazis stealing pagan symbols for their own.
If you are an anti-racist, anti-fascist pagan, keep doing what you are doing, you are keeping the fight alive
If you are an anti-racist, anti-fascist person who is not a pagan, help us spread the word of this, stand in solidarity with us as we kick the fascists out of our communities
If you are a fascist pagan, fuck off, this faith is a peaceful one
No platforms for fascists.

Uh… there was absolutely no need to be rude in that message?
Why the fuck off? Sure they’re bigoted/racist/homophobic but they were polite and civil, why couldn’t it just have been said ‘we don’t have anyone to share your views, thank you for contacting us and bye’?
Shut the fuck up geek nobody needs to treat assholes politely
Abhorrent, vile bigotry wrapped in “ please and thank yous” isnt polite. Its disgusting.
Racist language is not civil. Ever. By definition. Try again.
So Grandpa worked for the United Auto Workers back in the day, and frequently ended up on strike, and quickly developed a reputation as That Guy Who Feeds Strays, then later as That Guy Who Takes In Your Unwanted Pets.
Which is how mom grew up in a house with multiple dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and the occasional large insect as pets. It is also how Grandpa came home with a small gray-and white cat that was so dumb they actually named him Stupid.
Stupid was many varieties of stupid. He’d be walking along the edge of the table, apparently forget what he was doing, start listing to the side, and fall off. He’d get up onto the roof to chase birds- and run full-speed straight off the roof. He’d try to climb the walls to get at the canary, then try to spider-man his way across the ceiling, but would forget how gravity works and pancake himself on the floor while Tweety Bird laughed tried to crap on him.
Besides the clumsiness, Stupid also would try to fight his reflection, fight the two much larger and more collected cats, fight the Saint Bernard, and one one notably nearly fatal occasion, tried to fight a visiting boa constrictor.
He had a tremendous fondness for fruits, particularly banana, to the point where he’d get trapped in the refrigerator trying to get to them.
Stupid was tremendously affectionate though, and would sleep in great-Grandpa Adam’s lap while he was “having lunch with the queen” in his later years, bring mom her stuffed animals when she cried, and sat with Aunt Alice the whole time she had chicken pox.
When he was about 10, Stupid got out of the house and disappeared into the woods, and when he didn’t return after the entire month of January, the family assumed he’d probably gone to Dumb Kitty Heaven where the tables are low and the birds can’t fly. And they were probably right.
That spring however, a little gray and white kitten with identical markings turned up in the yard, and Grandpa, the sap, insisted that the family take it in. The kitten walked off tables, fought the bathroom mirror, ran off the roof, and got trapped in the fridge after eating three bananas.
I enjoyed the hell out of it!!! I’m not usually one to read OC insert fics, they’re just not my usual cup of tea, but I really really liked this one!!! I can’t wait for the next part!!
I’m really glad! Honestly this series is just proof that if you are 100% self-indulgent about a thing and put your all into it, then it’ll probably turn out nice!
And I’m hoping to get more of it written, especially with the dating sim getting me back in the grunkle mood, heh.
Truuuuuth
I’ve played through it, both sides. It’s amazing. It’s cute, well written, and just a damn good time ahhhh I love it!!
