The more I watch the scene with Phillips telling Steve they’re not going to rescue anyone, the more I feel Phillips is playing him. “Nope, we’re not going to go after them, because - and let me point out very clearly and specifically on this map exactly where they are - it is in dangerous territory and I will not order anyone to go in there”.
“Incidentally, Rogers, I know you have hero-issues coming out the wazoo and you want to be respected as a soldier and a man, so I will diss you to your face, call you a chorus girl, and basically wind you up to the point that you do something damned reckless and stupid without orders, because you’re the kind of dumbass hero who will jump on a grenade for your fellow-man or chase down an armed man while unarmed and barefoot in your shorts and I know this because I watched you do it before.”
“And Carter, if you’re about to say something, just don’t, because no one needs to know that I know exactly what I’m doing. It’s called ‘dance, monkey, dance’. And if he dies, wasn’t on my orders.”
You notice that he’s not exactly surprised about Steve being Captain Dumbass Hero. You’ll notice he’s also not massively surprised when Steve returns.
Colonel Chester Phillips. Didn’t get to be head of the SSR because he’s just a pretty face.
Importing this, since Phillips needs more love.

Well, it’s not trying to prevent self-abuse anymore.

geekgirl76 replied to your post “punchholesinthesky replied to your post “I just came across your…”Someday someone will do a proper study of the Georgian garden hermitage… I HAVE to assume the tree lady went and lived in the back 40 of someone’s fancy garden, and not just up in a random oak or something.
That was my thought too – that she “lived in a tree” in the sense that some wealthy patron hired her to be a hermit on their land out of sympathy.
BUT NO. I can’t find any original sources for any of it, but the sources I HAVE been able to find indicate she went back to the town she grew up in, moved the fuck into the INSIDE OF A TREE, and slept on a straw bale for the next 40 years. Apparently even when she traveled she’d sleep in an outbuilding or a barn.
She appears to have been a bit weird even before the breakup, but once they broke up, it seems to have been some kind of “I’m so sad GUESS I’LL LIVE IN THIS TREE” thing. But I feel like maybe she got to liking it, because sleeping on straw for forty years over a breakup with a dude is commitment.
terrie01 replied to your post “punchholesinthesky replied to your post “I just came across your…”Minnesota is isolated? I am very confused by this statement. People do realize that there’s more than Chicago and corn fields between the east coast and the Rockies, right?
Honestly, I often wonder. But while Minnesota may not in reality be isolated, a lot of people perceive it as such, I think because it’s kind of up in a weird corner with the Dakotas.
As someone who has lived in Minnesota and listened to reports of those that lived in the Dakotas and Nebraska, there are reasons for the perception.
But every time I hear about the real estate chicanery out on the west coast, couldn’t they move some of those jobs inland and stop with the micro apartments?
