Haha. Fair enough I guess!

I’m just picturing a plated meatloaf getting a tight zoom on a stage at the 50 yard line and her at home doing the Leo pointing meme.

She has never not been the lady yelling on daytime tv that Santa is white. Crazy she briefly convinced anyone she wasn’t this.

The showtime miniseries was better and more honest and, of course, far less seen.

There should be a meatloaf? What?!?

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.

But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

My local DMV runs smoothly. Haven’t spent more than 15 minutes in the place the last half dozen trips I’ve taken there. Used to be a mess. Reorganizing it to better allocate resources across the county solved a lot of problems, and we did that without selling our souls to Nazi robots. Imagine that!

It’s a divergence from the source material, but an interesting and timely commentary on the creep of authoritarianism within overzealous government bureaucracy. A counterbalance to some of the pro military industrial complex messaging Marvel is forced to place on their scripts by US Defense Deprt.

After that didn’t get the greenlight, they used the Stark Drones from Far From Home as a pretext to turn them into an agency (possibly because SWARD in WandaVision was a flop).

Canonically the accords were repealed during the five years between infinity war and end game. They aren’t legal anymore in universe. Also, Damage Control did start out as a clean up org (see Spider-Man: Homecoming) and ABC even developed a pilot for an ongoing sitcom based on the idea.
