On Tuesday’s episode of ABC’s The View, Marvel Comics announced that the character of Thor is now female thanks to a switch in possession of the Mjölnir.
The title, not the person under the mask, is switching gender because of who now holds the hammer.
“It’s a huge day in the Marvel Universe. Thor, the God of Thunder, he messed up, and he’s no longer worthy to hold that damn hammer of his,” said Whoopi Goldberg in an announcement set up by Marvel this morning. “For the first time in history, that hammer is being held by a woman. That’s right. Thor is a woman.”
Thor series writer Jason Arron stressed in a follow up statement that this is the new Thor. “This is not She-Thor. This is not Lady Thor. This is not Thorita. This is THOR. This is the THOR of the Marvel Universe. But it’s unlike any Thor we’ve ever seen before.”
Added Marvel in a statement, “no longer is the classic Thunder God able to hold the mighty hammer, Mjölnir, and a brand new female hero will emerge worthy of the name THOR.”
The new series, Marvel says, will “speak directly to an audience that long was not the target for super hero comic books in America: women and girls.”
OH MY GOD IM SO EXCITED

Can somebody please explain to my why everyone gets an extra hour in the ball pit???
It’s not everyone, just the people who paid to see nightvale preform at dashcon as compensation for nightvale canceling months in advance.
What if everyone is colourblind to a specific colour? Like what id something that I usually see as grey is like, a sort of greenish purple, but since I always aociated it with grey, that’s what I call it.
What did 
The same thing 
ask-factory-scootaloo asked: The ultimate problem with Down With Molestia is that it was just a get quick rich and get internet famous ploy from it's starter. It was learned that PinkiePony, the one who started it, took all the money meant to go to charity and put it all in her bank account. When confronted, she said hackers put it there. The money stayed in her bank account.
Wow. What a bitch.
It really sheds some light though on why she was attacking a pretty safe for work considerying the name tumblr blog rather than helping out rape victims.
Like, literally all discrimination is is making a big deal out of stuff. And if you really wanna change things you can’t do that.
Like, when integration was happening, there was a trend in movies where you always had a black person there. It was to show kids and adults that hey, look, they’re there, and no one cares. So, why should we? And it ya know WORKED.
So, logically, if I meet you and call you “her” and you say “I prefer he.” And not go “Fuck you! You don’t know my preferred pronoun!” (Which I HAVE had happen.) we wouldn’t have an issue.
In media there’s a trend of having homosexuals in movies, which is good but this generation is mostly online. So, if people on the Internet would stop making a big deal out of everything and whining about “Priviledge” and being hypocritical douchebags then we wouldn’t have a fucking issue!
Yes. Instead of raging at the people who don’t know you and your gender, you should politely let them know. You should only get mad if they go out of their way to call you the wrong gender, but that’s just because they are trying to be an asshole.
