Lady Captain America and Lady Thor
Art by Yasmine Putri
One of the few female versions I’ve seen that portray the strength of the characters instead of being a vehicle to show Cap with a midriff or Thor with tremendous cleavage.
Hell yes.
That’s probably the best female Cap i’ve ever seen
-Yes. Me likey very much.

"Yes, false rape accusations happen. Run the protocol anyway. I’ve heard that perhaps the military has the highest number of ‘em. True or not, RUN THE PROTOCOL ANYWAY. Because in 15 years of investigating rape accusations, I can count those that panned out as false on one hand. Meanwhile, the one time I almost skipped the protocol, the one time I almost didn’t believe a petty officer, because I was naive as an investigator and a young woman, because her commanding officer described her as “a party girl, always late, always out drinking, don’t bother with this one”, she turned out to be the victim of one of the most brutal assaults I’ve ever investigated. She shouldn’t have still been -alive-, let alone up and making the accusation. So let me repeat: five false accounts in fifteen years. And one time I almost failed a woman ‘cause of the bullshit way it’s normal to talk about us. Take your shipmates’ word, and then run the protocol. Every. Single. Time."

Hidden Architecture
As part of an advertising campaign for the Schusev State Museum of Architecture in Moscow, Saatchi & Saatchi Russia put together a creative team to assemble the deep, labyrinthine roots of some iconic buildings; the shoulders of giants that all current architecture stands atop of.

Pros-and-cons of Sherlock and Elementary, rebloggable by request
Pretty much this. Of course, most of the issues against Elementary aren’t issues for me as I live in NZ. The “Ms Watson” thing doesn’t bother me either (my mother is a practicing GP, but outside her office she is never referred to as “Dr Genner”, so I fail to see why this should be an issue at all). Good summary though!
