Sometimes the help you need isn’t the help you want. Call 1-800-273-8255 if you’re thinking of suicide.

This comic meant a whole lot to me. It was sincere in its depiction and treated the issue through the eyes of a grounded person. Not some godly hero saying everything is better than it seems, but a person trying his best before bringing her somewhere who can actually help.

Bieng at the right place, right time, and in deadpools sense the wrong roof can always help. Talk to friends and loved ones and if u think they are falling talking can always help. U don't need to help but u can just hear them out and then help them find the help they need.

Nerdy Fact #1434: Wonder Woman was originally based on two women: the wife of creator William Marston and one of his former students that both he and his wife had sexual encounters with.

(Source.)

How about you actually name ‘em?

Elizabeth Holloway Marston and Olive Byrne were among a number of women who contributed to the original Wonder Woman, and they’re fascinating people in their own right.

Elizabeth Holloway Marston was a brilliant woman. She earned three university degrees in psychology and law at a time when few women received any tertiary education. She was a successful career woman who assisted her husband with his work and was frequently the breadwinner of the family.

The main reason she was able to continue working after having children? Olive Byrne, who was not simply a casual “sexual encounter”, but the Marstons’ lover and life partner. To enable Elizabeth to work, Olive stayed at home and raised both her and Elizabeth’s children. She also wrote for Family Circle and contributed to Marston’s research.

Elizabeth is credited with pushing her husband to create a female superhero, and after his death she worked hard to preserve his vision for the character, urging DC to employ her as the comic’s editor (she was ignored).

Wonder Woman’s bracelet’s are Olive’s bracelets: Olive was known for wearing a pair of wide silver bracelets, and Marston had these in mind when he envisioned Diana’s bullet-deflecting accessories.

Marston died in 1947, but Elizabeth and Olive continued to live together until the end of their lives.

Wait. Clarification please. Are you telling me that the creator of Wonder WOMAN WAS IN A POLY-AMOROUS RELATIONSHIP?

themyskira

Yep! They were in a poly relationship and had four children together, two by Elizabeth and two by Olive.

(And for those who’ve asked about sources, the Marstons’ story is covered in detail in The Secret History of Wonder Woman by Jill Lepore and Wonder Woman: The Complete History by Les Daniels)

Wonder Woman was inspired and shaped by not only a man who was incredibly progressive and awesome by todays standards let alone the standards of the day he lived in but also by a fierce, intelligent and awesome bisexual woman

This is one of the many reasons why the ways DC has ruined Wonder Woman in their pursuit of making the book as backwards and heteronormative as possible pisses me off…

scots-dragon

Not a fierce and intelligent and awesome bisexual woman.

Two fierce and intelligent and awesome bisexual women.

thefingerfuckingfemalefury

You are correct :D

Imagine growing up in that house

“Mom wants to see you.”

“Psychology mom or bracelet mom?”

“Bracelet mom.”

themyskira

According to Lepore, the kids called Elizabeth “Keetie” and Olive “Dotsie”!

themetaisawesome

That is adorable.

I have reblogged this before and will continue to do it until the day I die. The origin story of WW comics is as fucking great as the character herself.

Fun fact: Olive’s bracelets were a gift from William and Elizabeth, and were basically an alternative to a wedding ring, since she couldn’t legally marry them. Diana’s bracelets, 70+ years later, are a symbol of that relationship.

Another fun fact: There’s a movie coming out about their relationship, starring Luke Evans and Rebecca Hall and Bella Heathcote that was written AND directed by a woman (Angela Robinson)

1) they expensive bruh 2) none of us kno the dif btwn a fucking diamond and some fancy ass glass ur capitalist rock hierarchy has no control over us

4) we get excited when our date buys us an appetizer, we don’t even comprehend people buying us rocks that would force us into debt for ten years

wildhaunt

5) They aren’t actually that rare and the price is artificially inflated.

6) There are so many more interesting rocks out there that are much nicer to look at

7) IF YOU BUY ME A FUCKING $1 000 000 SHINY ROCK I’LL PUNCH YOU IN THE JAW AND REPLACE YOUR FALLEN TEETH WITH IT

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MANY VIDEOGAMES AND CUPCAKES YOU CAN BUY WITH A FUCKING DIAMOND’S MONEY WORTH HENRY

BUY ME A CHERRY POP RING U ASS

wishtrogen-deactivated20190223

8) if there so valuable, then how come they’re so common in grinding and other abrasive tooling? The industry is controlled by a handful of people, the diamonds are mined by slaves, prisoners and extremely poor people. They are severely punished if caught stealing. And the millennials are becoming increasingly more aware of how this world works than the generation before them. They cherish food on the table, clothes on their backs, music, art, travel, social justice, and a clean earth far more than some petty, dormant and useless rock.

9) The artificially created diamond market intended (very successfully) to convince people that the diamond was a high status symbol of success in both economic and family life. It specifically catered to a very heterosexual, middle class & upper class, nuclear family lifestyle which at the time was still the primary source from which capitalism could extract labour.

Then the middle class began to collapse, the boomers left us with a ruined economy, and we are waking up to the fact that this entire system has overwhelmingly failed us and only seeks to exploit us.

What fucking use would we have for that system’s monstrously overpriced status symbols? “Keeping up with the Jonses” means something very different when the “Jonses” are, just like you, simply trying to survive and get their basic needs met.

The only diamonds important to me are the ones from my mother’s engagement ring, which she reset and gave to me in a necklace. Because they are meaningful to me in a deeply personal way, and didn’t cost my lo

thecuban-aries

Only diamond I need is on the ring that I have from my parents. I was born in April. The month is represented by the diamond and I have always us an appreciation for precious stones and gemstones. Diamonds are overpriced and I will most likely get a small but beautiful ring in the future for whomever I decide to marry. But it may not be a diamond in the ring. I'm 22 and I will not be burning my money for a stone.

My friend is an older guy, very successful businessman. But he doesn’t dress that way on the weekends. He decides to buy himself a Rolex, and goes to this big fancy watch store in his standard ratty jeans. The salesman figures him for a bum, and treats him with disdain throughout the entire conversation, like my friend is wasting his time. But my friend lets it roll off his back, gets the info he needs, decides on the watch he wants, and leaves. He goes directly to his bank, withdraws a big stack of cash. Walks back into the store, and makes a beeline for “his” salesman. The guy is practically rolling his eyes at him—until my friend pulls out the cash. He points to his selection and says, “I would like to buy that watch … FROM HIM.” And my friend points to the salesman standing next to the jerk.

Ratty Jeans: About Twenty Bucks. New Rolex: About Fifteen Grand. Look on the asshole salesman’s face as he watches his jumbo commission go bye bye? PRICELESS!

I have been here, multiple times! By referring to the order as a “Little Rosa”, you don’t have to make as big a deal out of the fact that you’re seeking help.

And believe it or not, it gets better. Rosa’s also gives out sweatshirts to the homeless (or sells them to the general public) that has information on local soup kitchens and even computer training in the area, on an insert sewn inside the sweatshirt.
