Another social media platform. Another place for me to post my picture with Chris Evans.
The United States of Captain America will always be one of my favorite comic runs—and I'm not just saying that because it gave me a Filipina American Cap in Arielle Agbayani. 🇵🇭

For @bamsmackpow.bsky.social, I wrote about the importance of the 2021 miniseries: bamsmackpow.com/why-marvel-u...
Why this Captain America comic series is more important than ever
The United States of Captain America miniseries from Marvel Comics is a worthwhile read that showcases the Captain America legacy through diversity and unity.

There are people who met Enver Gjokaj tonight, and I wasn't one of them.

Why are Peacemaker, Invasion, and Law and Order: SVU all at the same time on Thursdays? How am I supposed to decide whether to watch John Cena, Enver Gjokaj, or Corey Cott first?

Happy 12-year anniversary to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.! 🎉 Whether you've seen it countless times or have yet to check it out, #AgentsofSHIELD is worth the adventure.

7 Reasons to Add Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to Your Watch List
Canon status aside, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is still a worthwhile watch that deserves respect and recognition.

Being a writer who's just a silly little fangirl is fun, because all the Steve Rogers "When Did You Get Hot?" edits I've watched on TikTok haven't just been leisurely viewing—it was all research! 🤭🫡

My latest for @fangirlish.bsky.social: fangirlish.me/3VKckqk
The Internet Has Deemed This New Sabrina Carpenter Track as *the* Steve Rogers Song
We can't help but think of Steve Rogers whenever we listen to "When Did You Get Hot?" from Sabrina Carpenter's new album, "Man Best Friend."

Two years since one of the best experiences of my life—getting to meet and interview Gabriel Luna! 🥲

Obligatory promo of my Gabriel Luna piece for @pocculture.bsky.social from two years ago, which remains one of my favorite articles I've ever written!

The chaotic Krypto was fun to watch in #Superman, but it's how Clark responded to him that stands out to me.

For @bamsmackpow.bsky.social, I wrote about how Superman and Krypto's relationship characterizes Clark's heroism and humanity.

How Superman and Krypto’s relationship defines Clark Kent’s heroism
Cute and chaotic, Krypto is more than just a fan-favorite sidekick. His role helps characterize the kind of hero — and human — that Superman has become.

Daisy and Sousa are not only one of my favorite parts of #AgentsofSHIELD but also my all-time favorite ship and OTP. Interestingly enough, that made this both easy and difficult to write. But I'm so happy I got to write about Dousy in celebration of their upcoming five-year anniversary. 💙💜
From crackship to canon to endgame, Daisy and Sousa remain one of the most rewarding parts of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 7 even five years after the show ended.

We revisit their story HERE: https://fangirlish.me/46c3w35
Daisy & Sousa Remain One of the Most Rewarding Parts of 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'
From crack ship to endgame, Daisy Johnson and Daniel Sousa's love story was a wonderful narrative for the final season of "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

I saw an early screening of #Superman last night, and I really loved it! I don't think it's perfect, but it's a great movie that's full of hope. There are plenty of things that fellow geeks will enjoy.

Always honored to be on Podcast-616!

I somehow managed to not mention the Bulls, but I did to give extra love to Chicago, point out Rogers: The Musical, and made In the Heights relevant to the conversation. 😅
Podcast-616 is back with our coverage of #Ironheart episodes 1x01-1x03. Joining @angryscotsman81.bsky.social and @thenerdyblogger.bsky.social is a gal who knows a thing or 2 about Riri's hometown of #Chicago, @wijangco12.bsky.social! Part of @filmstoriespodnet.bsky.social. pod.link/1548188581/e...

Happy birthday to Daisy Johnson, who I know is being spoiled and properly celebrated by her husband Daniel Sousa! 🎉 #AgentsofSHIELD

I was watching The Avengers on TV earlier during dinner, and when Enver Gjokaj came on the screen, my brother was like, "Look, there's your boyfriend," and I wasn't about to argue. 🤷🏻‍♀️😅

In true Ashley fashion, I wrote about #AgentsofSHIELD for my first article at @bamsmackpow.bsky.social!

In honor of season 7's fifth anniversary, I wanted to revisit it and discuss why it was the ending the show deserved.

‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ season 7 is the ending the show deserved
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 7 deserves love as an ending that honors the show and gives its characters satisfying growth and well-earned happiness.

#Thunderbolts* made me laugh, cry, and yell because of all the chaos and emotion it featured, and I had a great time doing so—even if it sometimes hit close to home.

Since getting laid off from my job two months ago, I've been very unmotivated to write. But I'm trying to get back into it, starting with fun stuff for my blog.

First up, something in honor of #CaptainAmerica: The Winter Soldier's 11th anniversary.

Episode 6 of #DaredevilBornAgain was SO well done. The way Matt's fight and Fisk's fight paralleled and wove into each other was brilliant!
