Gamer, geek, nerd, blogger, aro ace, and all around proud weirdo. I reblog a lot of Marvel, DC TV, Sense8, Community, and anything else that catches my fancy. I love gifs and those text joke posts. I'm not interested in fandom wars.
Went outside my fandom bubble and saw people being cancelled for shipping two characters who tried to kill each other once damn is this the limit nowadays
Trying to kill each other is a reason to START shipping characters
listen i know sense8 ended a while ago but just imagine for a moment that you are rajan rasal. you have sent your wife away to paris, knowing that this may irreparably harm your relationship, because there are credible threats against you for cooperating in a corruption investigation. some time passes. you go to france to see your wife when you can, to hopefully work things out. you’ve been getting some weird communication from a medical organization looking for her, but she’s a biochemist so that isn’t that weird, right? you show up at the apartment you bought for her. first thing you see is another man walking down the hall in nothing but a towel. is she cheating on you? then you see a woman chopping something in the kitchen. is she super cheating on you + whoashesbisexualididntknowthat.jpg? next you see a large group of people with some intense computer set up and weird conspiracy board. a man comes up to you and addresses you by name and with a very friendly tone but he’s speaking swahili (you don’t speak swahili. does your wife speak swahili?) you mention the medical organization that contacted you about and one of the strangers pulls out a gun. you are given a microscope. your wife tells you that people are trying to kill her but they are different people than the ones trying to kill you. you are escaping across the rooftop when a couple of the group run back inside and the man your wife had been holding hostage escapes. you go back inside shortly thereafter to find a bunch of unconscious police. the rest of the group prepares to leave. no one has explained anything to you. this all happens in about ten minutes.
Under capitalism, income comes from “profits” (money from making or doing things); under feudalism, income is based on “rents” (money from owning things).
When a company ceases to do or make things and its income increases, that company isn’t practicing capitalism (mobilizing capital for production), it’s practicing feudalism (extracting rents from assets).
I think it’s important to know, there’s an older picture of David signing stuff, with his father-in-law WHO WAS THE FIFTH DOCTOR, holding a very similar sign behind David’s back. I don’t have the pic, but you can probably find it if you look a bit.
