Dorothy Dene (1859-1899), born Ada Alice Pullen, was an English stage actress and artist’s model for the painter Frederick Leighton and some of his associates. Dene was considered to have a classical face and figure and a flawless complexion. Her height was above average and she had long arms, large violet eyes and abundant golden chestnut hair.

Now that Britney Spears is free, she’s inevitably going to do something weird and off-putting because she was in a long term traumatic situation with very little control of her life and getting your shit together is hard in the best of times and that does shit to a person and I’m genuinely afraid the public who has been rooting for her for so long is going to turn on her and even start questioning whether or not it’s good for her to be free of the conservatorship and people are gonna need to remember that the answer to that question is unequivocally yes

Weimao (veiled hat) Taobao Recs

@slynil​​ asked for Taobao recs for buying weimao/帷帽 (veiled hats) on this post. Thanks for the question! There are actually lots of options on Taobao if you use the keywords “帷帽 汉服” (“weimao hanfu”). Here are some of my recs:

1. 格格间 原创汉元素 - Weimao come in different styles. This weimao works if you’re looking for the flat kind with a hole at the center, through which you can poke out your hair:

And here’s one from the same shop that comes with just fringe if you want to forgo the veil:

2.  霜翎阁 汉服配饰小铺 - This shop carries many options if you want to bling out your weimao with decorative tassels and beads:

3.  子颂东方美学 游园惊梦 - For a particularly feminine option, this pink weimao comes with a turquoise ribbon and ornamental flowers:

4. 鸾缕芳泽国风服饰 - For extra drama, you can go with this covered weimao (more of a mili, actually) that comes with an ultra-long veil:

5.  乔织丨原创汉服设计 - This black weimao fits the bill if you’re looking for the authentic Tang dynasty style with a raised top:

6.  青泠谷 原创汉服店 - Another option for the traditional Tang dynasty-style weimao:

7.  观止织造 原创设计汉服 - If you’re looking for color options beyond black, this Tang-style weimao comes in white as well:

If any followers have additional recs, please share! Hope this helps ^^

man you guys have got to stop getting mad at people for tagging your post as whatever annoying thing. tags used to be sacred. you weren't supposed to see it. it's the culture. "Stop tagging this as [character]". No!! You have no right to make demands on me!! I can do whatever I want in the tags. Just cause Tumblr decided to set up a camera in my house and broadcast it live doesn't mean you get to make fun of me for going "wheee!!!" when I get into bed it's my fucking house and my fucking business!!!!!

"Cult" is difficult to define and there are absolutely some groups that get unfairly maligned as cults, but cultlike groups are far far more common than most people are aware of.

???????????????????

[planetquest]

yeah basically a bunch of their music videos starting from i need u (2015) have contained a running story with the members playing different characters. i dont remember much about it because a) im not as big of a bts fan anymore and b) their recent mvs havent referenced it but this article has decent rundowns of each of the characters (uhh tw for mentions of car crashes, family death, hospitalization, abuse, murder, and suicide) https://www.koreaboo.com/lists/heres-brief-explanation-character-bts-universe/

Great post guys hit the showers

ever since sites like the new york times caught on to the private browsing trick to get around their bullshit paywall, i’ve been using the google translate trick instead. google translate isn’t restricted to text you paste; you can also paste in a url and it will generate a link to a translated version of the webpage you wanted. it’s this service you’ll be using

go to google translate and paste the url of the paywalled article you’re trying to read on the lefthand side (where you’d normally paste foreign text). set the “from” language (the one on the left side) to russian, arabic, japanese, etc. – any language that doesn’t use the latin alphabet. set the “to” language (the one on the right side) to english. it will generate a url on the right, and you can click it and enjoy

(the reason you want to pick a language that doesn’t use the latin alphabet is that false cognates are inevitable. if you don’t want to read an article that’s mostly intelligible but every instance of the word “after” is changed to “anus”, for example, you don’t want to go with german)

this DOES NOT work with every paywall! i just tested it on a number of sites, and it doesn’t work on wall street journal. but it does work on the new york times, the la times, the washington post, and the san diego union-tribune. i make no guarantees!

hope people find this helpful!

I just.

You don’t need a reason to not like a ship.  You don’t need a reason not to ship a ship, canon or otherwise.  You don’t have to prove it’s “problematic” or “abusive” or any of that shit.

You’re allowed to just not like it.  You can literally just say “eh, I don’t like it, it’s just not my thing” and that’s valid.  You don’t have to explain it or excuse it.  Just say you don’t like it and move the fuck on, for fuck’s sake.

I am BEGGING y’all.
