Seriously, is there anyone who isn’t in love with Michelle Obama?

Four-year-old comic book fan Anthony Smith is deaf in his right ear and has hearing damage in his left. He also refused to wear his hearing aid (which he calls “Blue Ear” because it is blue), because “superheroes don’t wear hearing aids.” So in a long-shot attempt to help her son, Anthony’s mom emailed Marvel for ideas.

“She didn’t know a specific person to write to here at Marvel, and even figured it might get caught in our spam filters, but she sent it in anyway, because that’s the kind of great parent Christina is,” said Marvel editor Bill Rosemann. “And it was her inspiring effort to help her son that touched so many of us here. As a fellow parent of a toddler, I can understand where she’s coming from, so I forwarded the email around the rest of Editorial, asking what we could do to help, and like when Cap yells, ‘Avengers Assemble,’ the gang leapt into action.”

Not only did Anthony receive an image of the superheroHawkeye,who lost 80 percent of his hearing back in the ’80s and wore hearing aids — Anthony also received a drawing, by Nelson Ribeiro in Collected Editions, of a brand-new superhero: “Blue Ear.”

Now, with his hearing aid back in, Anthony is able to “fight battles and help people.” His preschool, for hearing-impaired kids, recently hosted a superhero week to inspire the students to overcome their limitations.

DON’T miss the video. It’s the best thing you’ll see all day.

Gotta hand it to Marvel, you guys did good. So awesome!

Guys. I am so fucked.
I am not in shape enough nor do I have the skills for this show.
I have got to get my booty in gear. Pronto.

You know that moment when you’re reading a book and you just have to stop and bite your lip and squeal or sigh or close your eyes and wrinkle your nose and forehead and press the book against your heart and just like sit there and try to soak up the gorgeous literature via osmosis?

That’s my favorite part of reading.

It's really hard for kids to accept the idea of same-sex parents

  • The four year-old I'm babysitting: I'll be Mommy and you be Daddy
  • Me: Why don't we both be Mommy, then they can have two
  • Four year-old: Okay
  • The world: OH NO WHAT HAVE YOU DONE THIS CHILD WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!

googling lyrics even if you know them before you use them in a text post so you don’t embarrass yourself in front of the internet

Human beings, right? We’re people. Which means that we deserve each other’s respect.
