friendly reminder that Yeemick the Gerblin called Barry Bluejeans “a mountain of a man” and basically said that he was large enough to ride two horse side by side. friendly reminder that Barry Bluejeans is built like a fucking house.
because of this i expect all future fan art of Barry to make him at least as big as Magnus
barry bluejeans looks like the mountain on game of thrones and lup looks like daenarys but jacked, and honestly I am here for it.
more fan art of blupjeans looking like this pls
this is honestly even better than i imagined. now imagine kravitz in his skeletal form. necromancy is fucking cancelled.
– looks down on you for making mistakes and just being human
– guilt trips you for your wants, needs, or boundaries
– frequently blames you without ever looking at themselves
– pressures or coerces you to do something even when you expressed that you don’t feel comfortable
– gaslights you so you doubt yourself and they can feel “right”
– refuses to take responsibility for their actions
– refuses to listen to you or value your point of view on the matter
– doesn’t respect your boundaries
… you have a right to minimize their involvement, or cut them out of your life. These are red flags to a toxic relationship, and you do not feel safe with the person for a reason. You do not have to stay in the relationship, regardless of what they say. You have every right to consider what is best for you and your mental health. Never forget.
I’m not sure what’s the best part of this video: the fact that she’s in heels, the fact that she does the whole thing looking like she don’t give a fuck, that chick in the back just exercising and enjoying the show, or the fact that both men and women are observing this and the girls are laughing and the guys look concerned/pensive as fuck as they watch all their tactics get shut down like nothing is even happening.
… msties is it just me or is this familiar?
Some of these are moves I haven’t seen before.
Some of this looks similar to the self defense I learned in a course three or four years ago. It’s definitely got some judo in it (arm bars, throws, fighting to and from the ground).
I love this lady. She is rad. I feel like she, much like the rad lady I had as my self defense teacher, would also warn the women that if they don’t think they can gouge out someone’s eyes, don’t start trying because you’ll attack better with something you can follow through on.
crimelords I’m sorry I couldn’t not reblog this for you
Since telling my Mum that I considered myself ace, I already noticed that she was a bit… too interested, if you want to say it like that. Asking for “signs”, or how being ace feels like… I tried to answer her to the best of my ability, giving her links to websites that would explain better as I ever could.
Today she said, very quietly, “Do you think I could be ace, too?”
And I said very carefully “If you think it suits you, I don’t see why not”
And my Mum, my strong, self-confident Mum, who never once has ever felt uncomfortable in her own skin as far as I know, beamed in relief. Relief.
Because she never knew. Because getting married young and bearing children for her husband (meaning sex) was expected of her. Because everyone gave her the feeling as if something would be wrong or broken about her if she didn’t want, didn’t do that.
Because her whole life long, she thought there was something wrong with her.
I’m honestly torn between feeling happy and relieved for her, and angry that humanity has such trouble with showing some understanding to those who don’t fit in the boxes society has designed for all of us.
Update: My
Mum was getting ready for bed when I noticed her humming loudly around her
toothbrush and I asked her what the good mood was about.
She beamed
around a mouth-full of toothpaste and said, very proudly and deliberately, “I
think I like that, being ace.”
And continued
on with her brushing, humming a bit louder.
(Or in
other words, I’m more than a little bit teary eyed.)
I had almost the exact same conversation with my Mom. We were talking about the LGBT acronym and explained that it’s LGBTQ and that some people add the PIA at the end as well. And she asked me “What’s the a?” So when I explained it she said immediately “Me. That’s like me.”
This is why I get so mad at people who think this is all just trendy bs, people just don’t have the vocabulary or permission to describe their lived experience.
This is the most wholesome thing I’ve ever read, bless this post 🙌🏼
As someone not involved in the development of pillowfort but am a web developer, I think you should lower your expectations, but not for the reason you think.
Pillowfort is a baby. A newborn. A smol bab. If you were here during the early days of Tumblr, think of that.
Pillowfort simply cannot be the immediate solution to your woes. It needs to be nurtured and cared for to become a mature and happy adult.
If you want Pillowfort to work, they’ll need feedback, advice, bug reports, etc. This is a chance to make Pillowfort the Ao3 of Fanfiction.net. It’s not gonna happen overnight, you need to give it time and love and it’ll get there.
If you don’t want to pay money to get into the beta, that’s ok. It will be open to the public soon enough and you won’t have to pay a dime. Their financial model moving forward sounds good (a subscription fee for super extra features), but even an Ao3 model would work swell for them probably.
We’re living in an interesting time on the internet. Governments across the world are cracking down on content and yet community run websites are starting to thrive more and more.
Tumblr once upon a time was what Pillowfort is today, but this time, let’s make sure Pillowfort can stay independent from mega corporations.
Very important. Teat your pillowfort with love.
THIS WAS A TYPO AND NOT A JOKE ABOUT BABY PILLOWFORT AND FEMALE PRESENTING NIPPLES
So yes, Zuko’s character development was amazing but we CANNOT ignore the fact that Sokka went from a sexist dudebro to someone who liVEs on respect women juice
suki whipped that man into shape and it was so fun to watch
