You know what? This trailer isn’t terrible. I’m still afraid that they’re gonna cram way too much in too short a time frame with no cohesive structure… or maybe they’ve learned from past mistakes and stick to only shooting one major story for the one film, instead of six major stories for the one film… we’ll see.

As I’ve said in the past… whether or not I actually go out of my way to see this will depend entirely on how good Wonder Woman is. If Wonder Woman is good, then I’ll give Justice League a chance. If Wonder Woman is bad, then maybe I’ll catch Justice League on TV… maybe…

Oh and no, the main villain here is not Darkseid. The main villain is connected to Darkseid, but it’s not Darkseid.

Because I still want a cohesive Justice League DC Cinematic Universe, my fingers are crossed. But my expectations are as low as it’s possible for them to get, so…

What do you do and/or enjoy for self care? Let me know in the comments!

Two snipers have shot 10 cops, 3 of whom have died, at a Black Lives Matter rally in Dallas, TX. I’m doing my best to keep up with updates, but I have work early and have to go to bed, although I am utterly terrified right now.

It was only a matter of time before people snapped, and we’ve been well passed the breaking point for a long time.

That is not to excuse what has happened. Even if the two snipers turn out to be white, right-wing militants, this will be blamed on Black Lives Matter. This has shifted the narrative in a horrible way.

This is not good. If you are a person of color, especially if you are black, for the love of everything please please please stay safe. Please stay safe. This is not good.

Also, please use this thread to curate updates to the story. Through comments at the TWiBNation and TBGWT Facebook groups (who are reporting through Twitter), it’s become obvious that the story the media is reporting is not accurate to what eyewitnesses are reporting. So please post all updates here.

Thank you.

And again… please… stay safe.

(Oh… and note that I’m turning off first-time moderation for the sake of this post. It will be off until I put up my next post, unless that post is also time-sensitive. Be aware that any posts that are racist, that blame BLM, that blame black people, that critique this move [unless it’s framed within a critique of the police who started this], etc, will be deleted and the commenter banned. But also be aware that I need to go to bed [it’s 12:48am for me and I have work in the morning], so I won’t be back to this post for a while).

I am proud to be friends with Tony. He’s just an awesome person all around. Plus, he blogs at the Orbit. 

Tony does a lot to bring his world to us, but sometimes that means that we need to give back. I want Tony to make rent this month, so help him out.
