I am a sad little author (recently published) and aspiring photojournalist...hopefully concert photographer. She/her

Help us by spreading information

[newsfromstolenland]

non-muslims: please don't overcorrect for islamophobia by ignoring what is happening in iran right now (women being killed for not wearing or improperly wearing their hijab)

supporting the freedom to choose to wear a hijab means also supporting the freedom to choose not to

jîna mahsa amini was arrested and killed for "improperly" wearing her hijab. there are massive protests happening and police are killing protestors. spread the word.

[newsfromstolenland]

this is the edited version of the original post, because I originally referred to her as mahsa amini.

her name was jîna mahsa amini. she was kurdish, and her death was partially due to the ethnic cleansing of kurdish people.

please reblog this version instead. allow her the dignity of sharing her kurdish name.

This show was the funniest fucking thing

If I remember correctly it eventually got out.

Apparently this was a rehearsal for the scene, so the extinguisher was a prop one (hence the moment Miranda sassy looks at the camera/crew for how he was acting her in panic), so they went on to it.

But someone had switched the extinguisher to the actual fire thrower that would be used on the scene (I dont remember if was proposital or not or simply a mistake because they were meant to be identical).

So this is their actual reaction, cause when he pressed the valve, he really wasnt expecting to fire come out, neither was Miranda, so their reaction is 100% genuine and they did freak out as on tape.

The thing went out so well they were unable to reenact their reactions or surprise as the first time on rehearsal, so the rehearsal scene was kept and put it into the actual episode.

[zordonmlw7]

Are you telling me Miranda was eating that carrot with whip cream for fun and not because the scene called for it.

[mutopians]

reasons why it's very frustrating to be someone who wants to work in a creative industry right now:

warner brothers/hbo/discovery decided to scrap the batgirl movie in post-production before anyone outside of its test audiences could actually see the film

the same company also decided to remove 36 titles from its streaming platform hbo max, several of which were hbo max originals and can no longer be viewed outside of pirating sites, which means the creators will no longer be able to get paid for their work

simon & schuster and penguin random house are in the process of merging. if the DOJ trial doesn't stop the merger, we're going down from having a big five to a big four in the publisher world, with the two of the biggest publishing houses merging.

Barnes & Noble recently decided to stop stocking new middle school books unless they know they're going to be major bestsellers, which multiple new authors didn't find out until weeks before their debuts. B&N accounts for a large chunk of publishing sales for said authors, and limiting what books are available there means debuting authors are mostly screwed unless they put together a massive marketing campaign on their own.

I reblogged this last month, tagged it, and said “might as well see if it works.” I used this video as a reference to find all the forms that i needed (which is A LOT, especially if you’re a dependent) and sent them through the mail, not really allowing myself to hope.

dude.

$2,714 of medical debt from my top surgery - gone. im shaking this was such a weight on me for 2 years and it fucking worked. what the fuck.

re-reblogging and thinking about when i have another collection agency calling that i can just do this

[queeranarchism]

#my wife is on the SOR for being gay #no joke #she hit on a girl in a straight bar once #in 1997 #and while the girl was into it #the off duty cop sitting nearby was not #and so he arrested her for ‘soliciting homosexual activity’ #which in our state was still a felony #in 1997 (and would remain so until Lawrence v Texas in 2003) #and since ‘soliciting homosexual activity’ was a felony and a sex crime #she got put on The List #she is still on there to this day #because it costs MONEY to ask a judge to take you off #and she has tried four times#since 2003 #to get taken off the SOR #but every time the judge has said something like ‘no you pled guilty to the crime i can’t possibly take you off the sex offender registry’ #with no acknowledgement of what the actual crime was #(the crime of being a butch lesbian hitting on a cute girl who was into it) #(in 1997)

Reposting these tags with consent from the person that wrote them. The post about the Sex Offenders Registry is locked, but these tags are too important to go unnoticed.

Younger queer people need to realize that the SOR being used against queer people simply for being queer isn’t some ancient history thing. It still impacts queer people today. And it can quite easily be used that way again.

Leverage: Redemption episode where it becomes clear someone needs to go undercover as a stripper and there’s an awkward moment of looking around before a scene change of Harry in body glitter, a bowtie, and rip-off pants.

[what---i-dated-a]

#this is ‘Eliot is secretly a world class pole dancer because of course he is’ erasure

No no no see that’s what makes it great, what happens is, they do the con, and about halfway through AFTER Harry has had to fumble his way through at least one dance, one of the other strippers recognizes Eliot and is like “Oh hey! How’ve you been?”

He absolutely could have done it but he chose to keep mum because they wanted to haze the newbie.

Alternatively, he starts critiquing/gently correcting Harry’s attempts at Doing Stripper Things and when they’re all like “?????”

“What? I dated a stripper.”

Bonus:

Parker/Hardison: A stripper?

Eliot: Okay a couple strippers.

Parker/Hardison: Uh-huh.

[what---i-dated-a]

#just because eliot can doesn’t mean he’s gonna because making harry flail is much funnier#Eliot knows exactly which brands of body glitter are the best and he has Opinions okay

[toomuchtoomuchtomention]

“they prefer the term dancers or, for the specialists, acrobatic pole artists. It’s a skill.”

ra ra rasputin is objectively the funniest song ever written it's like "rasputin was an advisor to the romanovs and honestly he was a bit of a power-hungry conman (oof)... but you're not here for a history lesson! you want to know how much he fucked, don't you? well i'll tell you: he fucked. he fucked often and severely."
