So I really wanted to Nerd War with this guy online but I also didn't want to be a total asshole, so I've decided to take my answer and put it here.
Here's the sitch:
My sister posts on Facbook: Can I just live in the Marvel Universe?
To which I reply: Can I come too?
And then one of her friends posts: Um, literally metahuman disaster happens almost daily in the MCU, almost every city has been destroyed at some point and literally everything is fucked most of the time. You SURE?
And now my rant to put him straight: You make a good point; however, I have to
call you out on a technicality. MCU is the dedicated initalism for Marvel
CINEMATIC universe, and barring Fury’s Big Week which was actually a comic book
subsidiary for the cinematic universe, therefore rendering it nonapplicable to
my proceeding point, the timeline of the movies doesn’t have catastrophic
events occurring daily. Although you are correct in pointing out the dangers of
such a universe. However, I raise you that we have brewing wars, ebola, and
increasing amounts of pollution and waste, so at least in MCU you’d have a
higher chance of dying of something cooler.
That is all.

Okay… so...
Let's face it. This is just another way for me to put down my thoughts. I know the title says My Mind on Tuesday, but that doesn't mean I'll only update on Tuesday. Hell, I can barely keep a schedule for things that require a schedule, like classes, or when my plants need to be watered. There are days when I don't remember to eat dinner.
No, My Mind on Tuesday actually comes from a painting I did in high school. I had art class on Tuesdays and one class we could work on whatever so I did this God-awful painting that was red and turquoise and had like blades of green and purple grass on the bottom. I thought it was messy and bordered on stupid, but a few people liked it enough to ask me what I was going to call it. I just shrugged and said, "My Mind on Tuesday." So that's where it comes from and I felt like keeping it because, why not? It's a neat title.
So what will this blog be? It'll most likely be incomprehensible drabbles of stories I'm writing, or issues I'm facing, or just plain pointless shit. I'm not sure. But I liked the idea of having a place to rant (even if nobody sees it) and Facebook is getting too crowded and Tumblr is a little too overwhelming, so I chose this.
I'll leave it at that for now.
