Ahhhh… Twitter.
You.
I mean, would I even say I’m a Twitter fangirl? Why, yes, yes I would.
Fangirl
noun
1. a female fan, especially one who is obsessive about comics, movies, music, or science fiction. Or social media. (I might have added that last part)
You were there to keep us all amused and sane and connected during the great #FacebookDown2019 #InstagramDown2019
And you have always been my favorite social media platform.
To celebrate that fact, t
Also: HI, FRIENDS! Welcome to the new site! More on all this (waves hand majestically around) later…
If you aren’t into Twitter- or abandoned it when Instagram and SnapChat arrived (yep, judging you a little)- then you might not remember how entertaining Tweeps can be.
All I can say is… where have
Sometimes it gets deliciously weird. Sometimes it gets pretty sentimental. Sometimes it gets a bit mean, but that’s when I mute and move on.
Lately it’s been uber entertaining for the Marvel Mom in me. I’m sure you know why!
Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame and omgeeee y’all… we’re all going to need therapy, amirite?
Everyone, meet @VictoriaAveyard
You might know her already, because she’s kinda a big deal.
But even big deals like to help their friends out from time to time.
And Victoria came to the aid of one who needed to catch up on their Marvel movie marathon before Endgame hits the screens on April 26.
And being a good friend, she’s helping out with her version of a Marvel movie list in order– with some added and most excellent commentary.
Like… Ignore Natalie Portman (part 1 and 2).

Some favorites of mine from the list:
- Iron Man 2- trash (PREACH VICTORIA)
- Guardians of the Galaxy- FUN!!
- Guardians of the Galaxy 2- less fun but more Fleetwood Mac
- Avengers Age of Ultron- if James Spader was a robot
- Doctor Strange- if House was a wizard
- Thor: Ragnarok- AAAA-HA, great use of Led Zeppelin, director Taika
- (skip Incredible Hulk)
DYING over here. She’s pretty spot on, I think.
Victoria: I love you. And I love Twitter even more for bringing me THIS.
And now- for real- it’s time for bed. I’ve got some Marvel to catch up on tomorrow!
