Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

(Again, spoilers for Loki.)

Ha! I love Lokigator saying "I ate them too."

Black Widow was good! Maybe in the 50th percentile of Marvel films. The stakes in terms of both action and drama were a little muted, though.

Like most Marvel movies, it was too long, and sitting in the theater I was distressed because I couldn’t summon a progress bar along the bottom of the screen to see how much time was left.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I appreciate that fandom, instead of referring to him as Alligator Loki, has decided on Croki.

Someone on Tumblr referred to alligator!Loki as "Florida Loki," and I may never stop laughing.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Loki has definitely been my favorite of the 3 series so far and it was probably the one I was least interested in when they announced them. Classic Loki filled me with so much glee. My dad had a bunch of different giant paperback collections of Silver Age comics that I used to read when I was a kid (I don't think he has them anymore, but I don't know what happened to them) and Thor made up a good number of them.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

IJWTS I am here for Disney Robin Hood Asgard

And I am grateful for being told that was Frog Thor because I couldn't see who that was on my little screen, just that there was motion.

I had it in my head that the smoke monster would somehow be disappointing because Lost, but no, not at all

I was TOTALLY thinking "Is this the island from Lost???"

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

The explanation of the Void doesn't line up with what we're seeing—it's clearly just the variant people/items that are pruned that are ending up there to be disintegrated by the smoke monster, not the entire divergent universes. Maybe once the reset charges eliminate those, the timelines just sort of merge back into the Sacred Timeline?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Hahahaha I have so effectively erased Lost from my memory that my instinctual reference for the smoke monster was the evil cloud from the 1980s Care Bears movie and/or Ferngully.

I enjoyed Black Widow.
