As I keep struggling to recover from depression, this blog has become more of a personal outlet that chronicles socio-political news and opinions. All other activity has come to a halt since even the upkeep of this, whatever this is, seems to become more difficult. I appreciate anyone who seems to have stuck with me, nonetheless. Be safe, everyone.

This is what I identified this blog as some months ago:

Multi-fandumb blog featuring NSFW content, shippy fanart (mostly queer), Lady Gaga, Homestuck, the occasional animu, and other things, such as lotsa art (sometimes even of the ''fine art'' variety, oooh), shit humour, beautiful people and cool-looking animals. Basically, you'll be confronted with an accumulation of a bunch of crap that I like.

This blog lacks any sort of organisation or meaningful intent. Also, I don't know how to use tags appropriately.

Random bouts of fandom whiplash.

How much does Saudi Arabia hate women? So much so that 15 girls died in a school fire in Mecca in 2002, after “morality police” barred them from fleeing the burning building — and kept firefighters from rescuing them — because the girls were not wearing headscarves and cloaks required in public. And nothing happened. No one was put on trial. Parents were silenced.

reality tv show where they take out trans and non binary people and buy them a whole new wardrobe to help them feel comfortable and fit their representation

Hosted by Carmen Carrera and Laverne Cox.

THE POST GOT BETTER

Would be pretty bangin’ since Laverne already did a similar show where she provided ladies with fashion advice. Carmen, as a fashion model, could also share some knowledge on how to walk with confidence, I presume. Would be even better if some non-binary and transmasculine people joined.

“Strong Women & the Creators That Empower Them” -WonderCon 4-18-14

There’s a thing that creeps into this conversation … that if you complain about the depiction of women [in comics], it becomes, ‘Well, but ladies — the dudes are idealized too.’ And the thing is that the dudes are idealized for strength and the women are idealized for sexual availability. It’s very, very different. The women’s costumes are cut in such a way that I could give a cervical exam to 90% of our heroines. And I don’t have a degree! So if I can find it, that’s impressive.

Just, you know, for clarity’s sake: I said “I don’t have a MEDICAL degree.”  I do have a degree.  But nothing at the University of Texas Department of Theatre and Dance prepared me for locating a cervix.

i trusted you

Do not trust people like me. I will take you to museums, and parks, and monuments, and kiss you in every beautiful place, so that you can never go back to them without tasting me like blood in your mouth. I will destroy you in the most beautiful way possible. And when I leave you will finally understand, why storms are named after people

i don’t know about you, but i grew up seeing mostly white dolls that looked nothing like me. in fact, even the few black dolls i saw looked nothing like me. they had super straight hair, and sometimes blue or green eyes. where was the barbie doll with brown eyes and beautiful curly, kinky hair?

well now, i found a DIY tutorial that allows you to make even the doll with the finest hair, look a little more like you.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

  • A doll
  • End papers (sold at beauty supply shops)
  • Pipe cleaners
  • Scissors
  • Boiling water


Note about end papers: If you start with a doll that has long hair and you plan to make a style similar to the style shown in my picture, you won’t need end papers, they’re optional. But if you start with a doll that has shorter hair and don’t plan to cut it any further, end papers will be essential.

1. Cut pipe cleaners into two-inch pieces and bend each one in half. They will look like little “V” shapes.

2. Section off a piece of hair and twist it into a tight spiral. The smaller the sections, the tighter the curls will be.

3. Wrap the spiral in an end paper (optional)

4. Place a pipe cleaner onto the scalp and pull the twisted section into the crook of the pipe cleaner. Be sure to keep the hair spiraled tightly as you zig-zag it.

5. When you finish zig-zagging each section, twist the pipe cleaner ends around each other to lock everything into place.

6. Once you have all the sections in pipe cleaners, dip the head in boiling water for the count of ten.
7. Wait for the head to cool – usually a few hours, but overnight is best. Rinse in cold water and place doll in freezer if you want to speed things up.
8. Take the pipe cleaners out.
9. If you have length to spare, trim each section to get rid of straight ends or strays.

feel free to leave it like this, or pick it out and make your doll’s fro as big as you desire. i don’t know about you, but i’m definitely going to be doing a few of these for my little cousin, who is currently very insecure about her own beautiful curly hair.

Wow!

These are the latest screenshots from the website I’m working on creating: It is set to be the only website where people can easily find black hair stylist in their area and a directory of online black hair resources (youtube channels, natural hair recipes, tutorials, online stores, etc) in one place that members can add to

I’m asking everyone and anyone to contribute to the indiegogo campaign to help cover the last design and development cost and I want to stress that every little bit helps - there’s no such thing as “just” $1 or “just” a reblog.

Also, I hope to have the site up by mid August. If you would like to be notified of the exact date you can submit your email: here

THANK YOU in advance!

YOU ARE THE FUTURE.
