We are on strike. I wish it wasn't happening, wish that the producers would negotiate in good faith, and support the strike 100%.
We have not reached an agreement with the studios and streamers. We will be on strike after the contract expires at midnight.
Some wizards kiss wizards.
Petition for Caleb and Essik to flirt every episode. Please.
when are male celebs gonna stop wearing boring ass plain black and white tuxedos and suits to award shows like step it up they all look the same I don’t care who made it. I wanna see some hunger games Capitol style fashion
They need to take a page from John Boyega’s book. That purple suit. Hot damn.
Not forgetting the all red, and the one with the blue blazer…….
In case people missed the red suit and his blue look:
And then the gorgeous purple Decepticon one:
damn son
I see your John Boyega and would also like to add Michael B. Jordan
also, it’s not red carpet but I refuse to ignore these beauties:
Man I almost get personally offended when I see posts about dope ass red carpet suits and I don’t see anyone mention Nick Cannon:
….and its not just the suit, he rocks the iconic shoes and hats too.
Please how can anyone be leaving these out
If I may be so free to add
the lovely
Donnie
Yen.
@looktotheforce
MOC gonna save men’s fashion guys, spread it
May I add NHL defenceman P.K. Subban to this list?
Because daaaaannnngggg
im pretty sure the reason they wear boring suits is that they dont want to overshadow their dates. Or maybe they arent supposed to overshadow them? its stupid either way
Gotta add Riz into the mix because he looks so good always.
Honestly it’s just white guys who dress boring. Black dudes out here dressing flashy as fuck and y'all just ain’t seeing them
^^^
also:
Every single one of these looks is flawless omg
You guys put in Donnie Yen without THESE lovely outfits?
Or how about these that i call Donnie wearing a Couch:
OH COME ON NOW YOU’RE STILL MISSING THE BEST ONE.
MOC dress best
y'all seen my boy rami?
I hate when men only wears the same black suit. THIS IS GOLD!
MOC have been wearing gorgeous and colorful suits to red carpet events for years. white men wear mildly different cuts of the same shit. “male celebs” already did all that. pay attention to something besides white men.
every year I tell y’all to watch the NFL draft even if you don’t know anything about football because it’s full of enormous young men of color playing for the Best Dinner Jacket trophy (while the white dudes are wearing gray, black, or navy blue, because they suck and get drafted by stupid teams)

Miss Piggy On Beauty
What are your top beauty tips?
Start out perfect and don’t change a thing. Always accentuate your best features by pointing at them. And conceal your flaws by sucker punching anyone who has the audacity to mention them.
Never too old to learn from the Muppets.
And this:
“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it may be necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye.” - Miss Piggy
Welcome to the countdown!!!
10 days remain to pitch a story to the 1st ever all non-binary comics anthology, HEARTWOOD: Non-binary Tales of Sylvan Fantasy!
Meanwhile, we’ll be unveiling the pre-selected contributors already confirmed for the anthology!
Say hello to BRIAN WOLF, cartoonist and game-maker extraordinaire known for their adorably queer Tiny Swords franchise!
HEARTWOOD: Non-binary Tales of Sylvan Fantasy is the newest anthology from P&M Press.
Across time and cultures, humanity has spun tales about the forest: tales of caution, adventure, rites of passage, and discovery. Some of those stories persist as the folklore and fairy tales that delight our imaginations today, and the forest remains a symbol for facing the unknown and emerging transformed.
This anthology is for everyone who’s walked through the undergrowth, in the silence of nature, and longed for an adventure of their own to unfold. These stories of modern-day sylvan fantasy will showcase the best non-binary cartoonists of our day, guiding characters like us into the woods and back again.
Submission Period
Submissions will be open to the public from October 16th - November 13th. (A line-up of preselected creators will also be unveiled throughout this period!)
Who Can Participate
We want submissions from people who identify as nonbinary, genderqueer, agender, bigender, neutrois, twospirit, genderfluid, demigender, trans femme or trans masc, and other genders outside the “man or woman” binary.
For team submissions, at least the writer must meet the above criteria. If two submissions are equally matched, the all non-binary team will be prioritized. Use #TeamHeartwood (Tumblr or Twitter) to find teammates!
Age Restrictions
All contributors must be 18 years or older. All content must be suitable for readers as young as 14 years old.

Comics from 4 - 12 pages long
6” x 9” trim size (template provided)

Compensation
Contributors to our first anthology were paid $100/page plus Kickstarter bonuses. In keeping with P&M Press’ founding goal of increasing pay with each successive campaign, HEARTWOOD contributors will be compensated at $105/page plus any Kickstarter bonuses.
Contributors also receive a minimum of 10 complimentary copies of the anthology, royalties on all digital sales, and royalties on any print runs of the anthology after the first printing sells out.
Rights
Creators will cede exclusive first worldwide print and digital rights to their stories for a full calendar year from the date of publication, and non-exclusive worldwide print and digital rights in perpetuity. Ownership remains with the creators.
What We Want
Previously unpublished stories.
Forests. Jungles. Decaying structures reclaimed by nature. Trees, trees, and - oh yeah - more trees! Deep, lush settings that have character. (If you absolutely hate drawing backgrounds/characters interacting with their environment, you may want to sit this one out.)
At least one protagonist must be non-binary.
At least one non-binary protagonist must be human (they can be half magical-species-you-made-up, but their gender should not be portrayed as a “fantastical” result of that).
Stories set now-ish (a hard date isn’t necessary, but keep the human fashion and any tech to post-1990 and pre-2030).
Movement from one space to another (entering, leaving, traveling), literally and/or metaphorically.
Personified aspects of the natural world (e.g. whispering winds, walking plants, talking animals, etc).
Original fantastical creatures/beings.
Discovery and Understanding.
Tests (of will, wits, ethics, etc).
Person Allied With Nature.
A spirit of adventure!
What We DON’T Want
No fan works. No auto-bio. No prose. No one-off illustrations.
Stories that basically amount to “protagonist realizes they are non-binary and explains gender to the other characters/the reader.” Your character can come to understand their gender better by the end of the story, but there should be a plot beyond that.
Meet-cutes. (“Two people meet and crush at first sight, the end.”)
Horror: this includes horror tropes, body horror, classic horror monsters like werewolves or vampires, popular cryptids/urban legends like Slender Man or the Jersey Devil, and so on. Your story can use fear and danger as plot elements, but if instilling fear/existential dread in the reader is the overarching theme, this is the wrong anthology.
Tolkienian fantasy: no elves, dwarves, orcs, etc. We won’t freak out if you make something up that’s very loosely(!) inspired by any of these (unless it replicates the problematic elements of Tolkien’s work, in which case your work will not be accepted).
Cursing is permitted as long as words aren’t used literally (i.e. “Shit, you scared me!” as opposed to “Let’s go shit in the woods!”) and are used very sparingly when used at all. In general, we’d prefer not.
No porn. No references to specific sexual acts. No explicit nudity whether sexual or non-sexual (sorry, folks). “Consensual fade-to-black sex between legal adults” is fine.
No depictions of abuse (sexual, physical, psychological) whether pictorial or written. Characters may vaguely reference (in non-graphic language) abuse that they have suffered in the past if doing so serves the story or is integral to the character (i.e. maybe the story is about a survivor working on their agoraphobia by going on what they believe will be a brief, non-magical hike…).
No gore. People can get hurt, bleed, die, etc, but not in a grossly over-the-top way that fetishizes violence.
No slurs, no racism (not even “fantasy racism”), no misogyny, no transphobia, no ableism, no xenophobia, no white supremacist nonsense in general. (And please, no stories whose sole purpose is to teach that these things are bad.)
Ready? Here’s How To Pitch
Send us an email at [email protected] with the subject line “Heartwood Pitch” that includes the following information/attachments:
The name, pronouns, and role of everyone on your team (or just yourself for solo submissions). Give the name(s) you want used during communications with you, marketing of your contribution, and credits in the book (even if those are all different).
A working title and page count for your comic (doesn’t have to be exact).
A synopsis of your story, including a beginning, middle, and end. Spoil everything, but try to keep it under 500 words.
Preliminary sketches associated with your pitch: character ideas, important creature designs, environment concepts (the latter is especially important if your portfolio lacks strong examples of background art), etc. These don’t need to be final or polished pieces! Just detailed enough to give us an idea.
Links to any relevant publishing credits (whether you’re writing the comic, drawing it, lettering it, or doing everything yourself). Self-published works and webcomics count as credits! Choose examples that best reflect the style you intend to use for this comic. You may simply include a link to your portfolio if you have no pre-existing credits, but please note that folks with sequential storytelling examples will receive preference.
Tell us about yourself, your cultural and artistic background, and why you want to be in HEARTWOOD. Short and sweet is best!

Looking for a reading list of queer authors to get started with? These 100 must-reads by queer authors is a great place to discover new and veteran writers.
“There are far more than 100 books by queer authors, of course, and far more than 100 must-read books by queer authors. This list still feels lacking, partial, but it’s a start, isn’t it?”

hey,
i’m not sure if you guys post this kind of thing, but if you do, i’d appreciate it if you shared! a couple of my amazing tumblr-less friends have written a serialized novel about three black girls who find out they’re witches on their 22nd bday and i’d love some help getting the word out. the novel centers around these girls, but is really about a community of young poc in nyc trying to figure their shit out.
they release new chapters on their website every friday (and dope illustrations on their instagram and twitter, examples in this post). i’m trying to help them spread the word! you can read the chapters at thetypicwitches.com and learn a little more about why they wrote the book here.
the novel follows abbie, a third grade teacher w a corny white bf who’s teaching english in kenya, vic [my personal fave], an ex-sorority girl and pr assistant at calvin klein clarke stein, and delali, a former child star of “georgia on my mind” (think that’s so raven + smart guy + moesha)/current college student. basically the story’s about them learning how to use their powers and consistently messing up in their personal lives
Inktober Day 18 - Rose Tico from The last Jedi Can´t wait to learn more about this resistance girl ♡ aaaand, I think that´s it. I have many more names on my list, but I am at the point where I feel like I want to draw something else now. I hope you enjoyed my 2017 Inktobers, as much as I did drawing them. More next year! : )
Quite honestly the best thing I’ve drawn all week.
