Whoo, super long nose tutorial! I’m sure there’s heaps I didn’t mention in this but this is generally how I approach it - the main thing is to check out references and try and draw different noses, it’ll help you create more diverse characters and have fun with it without being afraid of drawing the nose (since it’s genuinely one of my favourite things to draw).

OH MY GOD APPARENTLY TAKING AN ARROW TO THE KNEE WAS AN OLD NORDIC SLANG FOR GETTING MARRIED

I THOUGHT THAT ALL THOSE GUYS IN SKYRIM HAD LITERALLY BEEN SHOT IN THEIR KNEES WITH ARROWS BUT I GUESS NOT

And at that moment, the foundation of that entire meme became something like this:

The winner has 24 hours to respond, if they don’t, I’ll draw again.

The giveaway ends 11:59pm est, October 31st.

Really need this

batmansymbol

one of the most important things to me about harry potter is its portrayal of happiness. in the harry potter world, happiness isn’t just a feeling—it’s a weapon. look at how harry and his friends fight: with riddikulus, laughter stymies a creature made of fear; with expecto patronum, the very memory of happiness beats back the grim forces of depression.

the weaponization of positivity stretches beyond that. fred and george weasley’s inventions, meant for laughter, turn into arms against umbridge’s regime. and after their departure from hogwarts, their joke shop becomes not only the single bright spot in diagon alley (literally & figuratively) but a hub of defensive magic. the whole weasleys’ wizard wheezes narrative serves as maybe the clearest example in the series that happiness can act as both shield and sword.

there is something deeply empowering in a depiction of happiness as something so tangible and usable. as a profoundly depressed person, i often feel myself scrounging for happy memories and clutching them close; i find myself grasping for laughter in the dark. the physicalization of expecto patronum is not a quantum leap from reality. the boggart’s laughter as combat fuel, the weasleys’ levity as not just a choice but a difficult and defiant one—it’s all familiar.

the series has its share of darkness, but it revels most in the light. it lets us believe that the act of joy is not small, trivial, or inconsequential. happiness is something not just to be lived—it is to be wielded, on your own behalf and the behalves of the people around you, to battle against the world’s heavier elements. harry potter teaches us this.

Ottawa sends body bags to Manitoba reserves

Expecting flu assistance, reserves get body bags from Ottawa

kokoona-deactivated20160520

When white Canadians say “stop talking about American politics, we need to talk about Canadian politics” but haven’t reblogged this, haven’t talked about this, and continue to exist in a vacuum of silencing their First Nations / Métis / Inuit Indigenous conversation, I wonder what their motives really are. Stand up and speak out.

LIGHT SPRITE GIVEAWAY

I’m going to tell you a story. Once upon a time, I was a wee frightened child of twenty-something, and I had nary a single light sprite to my name. A beautiful heroine heard my pathetic weeping and gifted one to me. I kept this light sprite. I hoarded it like I hoard old books and the pre-chewed gum of celebrities. And then I decided to quit. Flight Rising, not hoarding delicious celebrity gum. And I thought, I shall pass on the tradition and share this light sprite with an equally sad and pathetic tumblrer. AND SO, WITHOUT FURTHER ADO THE RULES 1. YOU MUST NOT ALREADY HAVE A LIGHT SPRITE*. I will check and I will publicly shame you if you don’t follow this rule. This isn’t to add to your light sprite collection, yo.

2. You must reblog this with your USERNAME.

Those be the rules. I will be choosing this based purely on how I feel about it. This isn’t chance. This is whim and fancy. It ends when I feel like it. IT BEGINS NOW. NOW, I SAY.

Oh, and side note. I don’t care if you follow me or not, that won’t affect my choice. So don’t follow me because you think I give away lots of free stuff, because I don’t. I am a bitter and angry old woman who has not yet learned the value of generosity… or love. *and don’t give me this “oh, I’m entering for a friend” ridiculousness. If they play FR they have keyboards and the ability to type their own username.

I need help.

This is hard, and I rarely ask for any kind of help with money, yet in this case I need it.

I need help in paying a $500 USD bill on an overdrawn account. I have two weeks to do this, otherwise I lose my next pay to this monster. I am on thin enough ice IRL that not having money to pay board would be a unmitigated disaster, and likely turn the abuse I - and my SO - already face worse.

The overdrawn is though no fault of my own; my bank account should not have been able to allow that to happen but did due to some error in the system, and while the bank could help, the only real option is one that is *incredibly awkward* due to my IRL situation. My SO has already helped - the bill was a lot higher than this - yet he’s unable to help further due to his own financial obligations.

my paypal is [email protected]

Any little bit will help and I will repay anyone who wants it as soon as possible.

Thank you.
