EPISODE 2 REVIEW Marveling over Ms Marvel

EPISODE 2 MS MARVEL REVIEW

Like Kamala's bracelet unlocked some power within her, I think Ms. Marvel has unlocked the reviewing power within me.



This is my second review for the new marvel show, and frankly, I'm surprised by my initiative. Woohoo, go me I guess. 


Welp, onto the meat, ngl, I was rolling my eyes when Kamran showed up and I thought the show was going the route of 'cool guy, girl, nerd' love triangle. Sooo, expectations pleasantly subverted. 

(Text in image: I spent way too long on this to express my mild distaste for unnecessary love triangles) 



And also, is it just me who thinks the detective guy is the same one from No Way Home? That guy who tricked Ned? Comment below and tell me if you think they're the same. Nevertheless, he's established himself as the 'un trustworthy authority' so let's see if his (and the lady detective's) goals are nefarious. 


There's a conflict building with Bruno and Caltech, and I stg, if he stays and his reason is smth like "it's cuz I love you, Kamala." I am going to scream SIIIIIIIMP at the TV. Isn't the whole point of a coming-of-age story to.... Come of age??? 


It was entertaining to watch Kamala use her powers, since she still is an amateur and you can definitely see yourself doing the same things she does. I've always loved it when media show an amateur hero trying stuff out, no fancy flips or fancy assassin training, because I could definitely nod along and say "yep, that's what I would've done/how I would've acted."


Overall, the ending of the episode provided an intriguing cliffhanger, and I eagerly await more.

In Defence of Media Trials

 So, I was at a debate today, with the topic being "Trial By Media".  Ofc, my partner and I both wanted to speak 'against' , because???? What could you write 'for' the topic???? Apparently, I was going to find out... We decided that a coin toss was fair, and whoever won got 'against'.  I think you can guess who won.... I struggled writing the content, due to there (obviously) being nothing in defense of this issue. So, I had to get creative, read "in between the lines" etc etc. We won third and I'm proud of bringing up points that no one thought of, so I thought I'd share my content, cuz I think it's pretty solid. Tell me what y'all think in the comments ___________________________ Imagine this- 25th May 2020, it's a normal day in America, you go out with a 20 dollar bill to buy something, when suddenly, everything escalates. The cops are called on you, approach your car with guns drawn, 3 of them hold you down as 1 kneels...

The Warm Months at the End of The Year

-
A poem.   Do you know the difference between warmth and heat? Here are the seasons, Delhi an entity unto its own- its summers hot. Chappal melting to the road, flesh more sweat than skin. Hot says the dog panting in the shade. Hot says the rasp of a construction worker. Hot says the girl fanning her face on her room's floor. It's not warm. Not yet. When summers go, then comes the in between. Humidity sticking in your lungs, slap away the mosquitoes, laugh as your friend's hair sticks up, pout when they laugh at yours. The rains are cool, but it's not warm. Not yet. This is warmth- The end of November, the chill sneaking pollution into my lungs. The heat is no more, and now I can appreciate being warm. The thick blankets being removed from the closet, me pressing my cold feet to your calf. Sit by the road in a patch of sunlight, my face a sunflower seeking the light. The heat will return, but for now, Warmth is this- Napping on a grassy hill as the cold sits pleasa...
