This is (one reason) why I love the internet.
I AM SO HAPPY THAT ROAR THE LION BEAR FOUND HIS WAY HOME 🙂
This is the cutest thing! i’mm reblog it again!
For all the crap that happens on the net, with something like this, you’re glad it was discovered.
What a time to be alive
And yet sending supplies was entirely permitted when a group of white men invaded federal land in Oregon and hunkered down in the place with guns.

Dat sister bond that Marvel has an unreasonable hate-on toward.
Cosplay by alola/mostflogged on Twitter. Multiple tweets about her process toward this cosplay given by her on Twitter.
I fucking called it. Fucking. Called. It.
No Polaris anywhere. Not a shred of her. Here’s all the X-Men characters Marvel decided should get to actually exist in the Marvel universe and be used.
Gold
Team: Marc Guggenheim and Ardian Syaf
Cast: Shadowcat (team leader), Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Old Man Logan, and Rachel Grey.Blue
Team: Cullen Bunn
Cast: Jean Grey (team leader), Cyclops, Iceman, Beast and Angel, mentored by Magneto.
The IGN article about Shadowcat leading the Gold team claims that this is her first leadership role, but it’s not. She was headmistress of the Jean Grey school during Schism. She was a tutor for the time-displaced young X-Men. She’s taken on leadership roles before – not as a “temporary stand-in,” but completely in her own right. She got those opportunities before Marvel was willing to grant them for Polaris, and she was created in 1980, a full 12 years after Polaris.
Meanwhile, Magneto gets to mentor the young X-Men in Blue like he’s already done a bajillion fucking times already. This is not new ground. This is something that’s been done over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and
I am so fucking done with this. Marvel can’t be assed to give Polaris anything even remotely resembling a shot at a fair chance to show her stuff and have her potential used. They can’t be assed with even trying to make up for the bullshit they put Polaris through and their consistent, unwavering devotion to being dicks to her.
48 fucking years, and Marvel’s only willing to make Polaris a team leader in the most technical sense, refusing to promote All-New X-Factor and canceling it at a point they’re not willing to do it with the Scarlet Witch solo book. She’s going to have existed for 50 years in 2018, and Marvel’s going to keep acting like she has no worth, because Marvel hates anything the blessed Claremont decided to ruin for no good reason. Two years after Marvel went out of its way to sabotage the only time they ever allowed Polaris to have a team of her own, they bend over backwards to promote Shadowcat as a leader and emphasize how “great” they are for doing so.
In Marvel’s eyes, letting people know Shadowcat is going to lead an X-Men team is something to celebrate, while letting Polaris lead a team is a begrudging chore they can’t wait to dispose of so they can shut down complaints on a technicality.
In short, fuck Marvel, and Disney by extension. Rogue One is the last
thing associated with Disney I’m going to see or buy. After that, if it
isn’t Polaris or doesn’t include her, I’m not touching it. Done with
Marvel. Done with Star Wars. Done with all of it.
Not only does this company not merit my money or support, they clearly don’t want it, either.
Why give anything to a company that clearly hates anything I care about that they have to offer?
It’s the end of X-Men ‘92 as we know it.
It’s the end of the 90s as we know it.
It’s the end of the world as we know it, and we feel fine.

I’d like to contest the “and we feel fine” bit. 😛
