Trump supporters when people call them out on their racism

Sounds about white

[error-404-fuck-not-found]

y’all, the racist restaurants are outing themselves and you’re really going to give them shit about it?  this is a perfect list of establishments to run into the ground, and they’re handing it to you free of charge.

conversely, if a space is marked “unsafe” on the app, you know it IS safe for anyone with common human decency and can be happy with your dining experience knowing you will be protected by staff and other patrons if a MAGAsshole wanders into your midst.

Anyway, as we enter cold & flu season in the YEAR of corona, this will come in very handy.

This was created by Vox and if you look at small print, you'll find the sources used to create the table.

Obviously there are exceptions and we're getting conflicting and new information about covid-19 all the time but by mid-august, I believe we certainly had observed enough cases for experts to put this together at least.

LMAOOOOOO

[fernacular]

Okay but for anyone who legit wants to know how to calculate it correctly:

The elbow joint on average rests a couple inches higher than the navel, so if you measure how long the distance is from the middle of the shoulder to that point then you have the length of the upper and fore arms!

[fernacular]

So if anyone’s wondering about legs too, the simplest rule of thumb is that the length from the top of the leg to the knee is equal to the distance between the top of the leg and the bottom of the pectorals:

And I wanna stress that when i say “top of the leg” i’m not talking about the crotch (please don’t flag me tumblr it’s an anatomical term) i’m talking about the point where the femur connects to the pelvis, which is higher up on the hips:

It’s easier to see what I’m talking about in this photo of a man squatting: 

So yeah if you use that measurement when using this technique you should get fairly realistically proportioned legs:

But remember! messing with proportions is an important and fun part of character design! Know the rules first so you can then break them however you please!

I only ever saw the part where people started drawing the limbs outrageously long and genuinely wanted to know how to fix that, so I’m really thankful to see the rest.

can we please credit the artist? her name is Bea Camacho this took her eleven hours at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston (x)

also for anyone wondering: “After the piece is finished, Camacho sits inside the cocoon for a few minutes before wriggling out through a small hole, destroying the piece.”

a 2020 mood

[keepcalmandcarriefischer]

The spy chasing me throws a tracking device at my car. The throw is perfectly timed and the small, round device hits the bumper perfectly flush. However, since the tracker is magnetic and my shitty car is plastic, it bounces off

[keepcalmandcarriefischer]

The spy is following me as I walk down the street. I bob in and out of shops. Pause and accelerate my pace randomly. Stop to tie my shoe so he loses sight of me. I stay perfectly out of his reach. This is all due to being sleep deprived, confused, hungry, and lost

[keepcalmandcarriefischer]

The spy freezes my bank account. I do not notice for three weeks and only because Netflix sends me an email about non-payment

[keepcalmandcarriefischer]

The spy chasing me does a stakeout at my house. After 4 days of trying to match my sleeping pattern he has to call HQ for backup

[hubwalker1]

What did you do that requires a spy to follow you so thoroughly?

[keepcalmandcarriefischer]

Honestly I have no idea. My best guess is that it's a misunderstanding

[tallwife]

Is anybody else obsessed with understanding how others perceive you like… who am I in your lives… what kind of person am I… a friend of mine told me once that I’m mysterious and I was like ??????!???)????

[starsabovethegreywaterfalls]

*me handing out a papers* I’m gonna need you all to write a detailed essay of min 45 pages describing exactly how you perceive me and why plus an oral presentation with appropriate soundtrack.

wish women’s fitness was more about boosting our energy and getting our bones and joints ready for our old age and getting strong enough to punch men and less about losing weight while getting a bigger ass

[therowentree]

Wish women's fitness was more about joyfully moving our bodies to heal our minds and less about avoiding the shame of not being fuckable.

So I stumbled through the Barbie aisle at Walmart the other day…

…and y'all, I almost cried. Just look at these. LOOK AT THEM.

So many skin tones!

PLUS SIZED BODY TYPES!

NATURAL HAIR STYLES!!! MULTIPLE SHADES OF DARK SKIN!!!

A WOMAN AS A DOCTOR!!!!!

[nobodybetterhavethisoneoriswear]

I’M NOT DONE, THERE IS A PHOTO LIMIT!

LOOK AT THIS PROFESSIONAL LADY!

SO MANY SKIN TONES AND BODY TYPES AND LOOK AT THAT MERMAN!!!

FRECKLES!!!

Y'all, I’m just…so so happy.

I’m 35 years old and I’ve never seen a Barbie that looked like me, and then there I am as a Barbie in a purple sweater with thick thighs and evenly proportioned boobs and pink hair and a cat.

I can only imagine how other girls must feel.

Nicely done, Mattel. Nicely done!

[immaplatypus]

Mattel also just announced some new Barbie dolls who have wheelchairs or prosthetic limbs!!!

Like screw anything calling this “politically correct,” this is what the real world literally is.  And the world’s population of children is just as diverse as its adults.  Kids deserve to see themselves represented.  As a disabled person myself, I can’t tell you how much this would have meant to me as a little girl.

[freeunicornhug-deactivated20220]

BRO HAVE Y’ALL SEEN THE NEWLY RELEASED ONES

IM SOBBING

[nobodybetterhavethisoneoriswear]

YES YES YES THIS IS PERFECT!!!

[frompawntoqueen]

I only ever saw the one disabled Barbie but their is at least two! And look a ramp!

[thefloatingstone]

the OP was made a year ago so for fun I went to check what they’re new dolls were

Guys… Even being confident there would be even MORE added to the barbie range of dolls…. I was not prepared.

I am about to image spam you so forgive but there’s just SO MUCH

holy shit. I’m like… not even a doll person and so many of these I want!

There’s LITERALLY too many to add

(who is she?)

Plus sized Barbie with DIMPLES

They actually have a barbie with albinism and bothered to give her a proper face-sculpt!

This one looks like she could kill me instantly if she made direct eye-contact

This one’s smile is just KILLING me

Nubian girl because we’re not messing around

Also… this doll does not have any name on the product listing nor on the packaging so this might just be me but…. help me out here guys… is this.. ….is this a non-binary barbie? Am I presuming too much or is that what I’m looking at here??

Also final note. Just to REALLY drill this all home, Barbie has some photos of kids playing with the dolls and

Ironically, Barbie did not come to play around.

Also I’m obsessed with this Sally Ride doll

[the-punning-ubus]

Barbie never played around, barbie played for keeps, why do you think she works so hard in so many fields?

[official-lucifers-child]

if any of y’all think this is overkill:

i babysat the sweetest little girl who was in a hot pink wheelchair. it was almost brand new, and she was just so excited to finally have a good wheelchair!! the day i walked into the house after she’d gotten it, she wheeled over to me with the biggest smile and said “it doesn’t hurt my back anymore!!”

for her birthday, i got her a barbie doll who looked a lot like her (it was the one with vitiligo) and a little barbie wheelchair and a few other accessories because who doesn’t like accessories?

apparently she’d had a white doll for a while and of course loved her doll but when she saw not only the one with vitiligo but also the wheelchair? and she put that little doll into the wheelchair and pushed her around a bit on the table? she looked up at me and burst into tears, grinning from ear to ear, and murmured to me “she’s like me. i didn’t know there were ones like me” and lemme tell you i nearly broke down right then and there and i gave her the warmest smile and hug i could muster up and her parents called me a few months later (i’d stopped babysitting because they didn’t have money to pay and wouldn’t allow me to babysit for little/free like i offered because i knew they both were searching for jobs and couldn’t be around their kid much bc interviews) and they just thanked me, their daughter was “so happy to have a doll like her that she carried the barbie around with her all the time”. they hadn’t been able to afford the doll and were actually saving up for a wheelchair at least.

this isn’t overkill.

this is giving kids a doll like themself. this is showing them that they aren’t weird or irregular or not normal. this is showing kids that others who are different from them, others who do have a prosthetic or a wheelchair or dark skin or vitiligo, that those kids aren’t weird. if a little girl sees a barbie in a wheelchair, she’ll just think “oh that’s my friend!!” and be exposed to the fact that these “different” kids are kids too, friends and acquaintances and not people to be mocked or bullied.

[radiantretriever]

Y'all I know it sounds dumb but I’m literally crying rn. I have Never Never seen a doll that looks like me (black, androgynous, curly hair) but here it is. There’s me. I’m fucking crying over a Barbie

[scorpionchild81]
