It's Thursday, it's May 2021, let's get some superhero-y comics-y goodness!
(Warning: this post briefly discusses Covid 19/Coronavirus and Lockdowns, and mental health problems)
April was a mixed month.
Not only did we have snow, hail, rain, and blazing warm sunshine on the same day, but the uncertain opening-up after Lockdown etc. still meant that things felt hecka odd.
We're in that odd position where we're (hopefully) beyond the worst of it, but it's also uber-important not to move too fast, y'know?
'Sam scrubbed a hand over his face. “Look, I know you talk like that just to annoy me, that the ‘stoic brainwashed soldier’ thing is just an act-“
“I would never joke about perimeter security.”'
Have we established that I'm trash for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier (TFATWS) yet?
If not, let's establish it right now: I am trash for TFATWS. (Albeit trash that is still critical of their Queerbaiting, but here we are.)
It's Thursday, it's May, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!
(Warning: as you can probably tell from the title, this post discusses Covid 19/Coronavirus, vaccination, needles, and needlephobia.
It also talks about Anxiety and Depression, and mentions being a smol closeted Queer chick, because I'm perfectly capable of going off on tangents.)
I have my vaccine appointment!
At the end of this week, I will be getting my first dose.
(Yes, I am still in my 20s, and Wales started with the over 80s.
The Welsh vaccination programme is working like a well-oiled machine! (I think the small population also probably helps.))
'Dave got off on the 18th floor, looking back to see Klaus with his hand raised in a wave. Dave swore he had the words ‘Good Bye’ written on his palm'
This week's fic is a fun fic based around The Umbrella Academy (TUA)
(Yes, I know I am trash. 😅 We have established this thoroughly by this point. And I don't care.)
It's Thursday, it's the end of April in this year of 2021, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!
