Spotted at the Cathedral of St Michael and St Gudula in Brussels, this inexplicable diorama featuring the three most revered holy women in Catholicism: the Virgin Mary, Asuka Langley Soryu, and Tsumugi Kotobuki (Side Ponytail ver.). No, there is no missing context. I'm as puzzled as you are.

You don't need me to tell you this, but trans athletes deserve the dignity and respect to pursue their athletic hobbies/careers, both casually and professionally. Fuck these eugenicists that say otherwise. And don't even get me started on how much this bullshit is gonna affect cis women of color.

Though it's occasionally been stressful, putting the show together has absolutely been one of the most enjoyable creative endeavours of my life, and I hope it stands as a testament to the love and devotion we have towards this show and these characters.

Hey, it's me, Tom Holland. I'm here to tell you that I personally demanded Marvel make my next Spider-Man adventure a low-key, street-level story about Peter Parker's personal struggles. Anyways, here's a trailer featuring like eight different villains and also The Hulk.
