Do the modern costumes still have the boning and insane tailoring? I’d love one of the vintage ones, just to wear under dresses sans tail.

It looks like he just squirts a mound of that tinted clearasil zit stopper and smears it over as much as his face as he can. But not near the eyes—that burns!

He looks like a human cyst. A human tooth abscess. His own evil is literally curdling him.

Henson should have received the nom over Stone by miles just for the “not cos we wear skirts, but cos we wear glasses” line, but also should have received it over Streep. She was average in a pretty mediocre biopic. Just because Stone or Streep were in a movie, it doesn’t mean they require a nomination. It’s so…

I loved Hidden Figures and made everyone I know watch it, but Moonlight has to win Best Picture. I haven’t ever seen a movie like it. It was so delicate and beautiful and life-affirming, and IMO it was a technical masterpiece.

I definitely had a fab childhood and my parents, especially my mom, sacrificed a lot to further our education, but the enforced gender stuff was just. so. weird.

If I had even a ghost of a chance towards damehood, I’d still demand (do they let you demand) the knighthood instead because I wanna be a fucking knight.

It is a devastating book. I like Peggy as a writer, but couldn’t get through some of her non-speculative fiction (it was kind of a snore). But she really excels at uncomfortably real dystopias.
I thought the movie with Natasha Richardson was pretty fab (and young Aidan Turner omg), but the 90s was a different time. I…

I’ve noticed that the greatest scaremongers (middle aged moms, aging uncles, and grandpas) about the internet are the ones posting memes about being winos and racist rants. Teens are all posting their art or photos of their hobbies and discussing how political policy will affect them and their friends.

Honestly, I used the internet when I bought myself a laptop as a teen (saving up my hard-earned babysitting and retail-hell dollars) to look up cheats for PC games and teach myself sex ed from Scarleteen because no one would tell me anything. Just talk to your kids. If your kids don’t feel they trust you enough to…

I remember winning a big contest for public speaking at the district level (after winning school, municipality, region levels), and my parents forbade me at each level from talking about it. They carted me around the friggin province to go to these things, but we were all to pretend they weren’t happening.…

Even my 101% in high school chemistry (I aced the tests and labs and got the bonus points too) and 98% in math weren’t enough to convince my family that I am good at math, because I failed 1 test in grade 2 and occasionally asked for homework help when I didn’t understand something. I remember my mother and my brother…

Holy shitballs, that is terrifying.

I hope anyone liking this post-march isn’t doing so in response to Kara’s post. Critique amongst feminists isn’t opposition: it’s critique.

This was cute, but if it’s gonna be a regular series:
1. clean up the background
2. get some lights

I watched a documentary recently about the women’s lib movement in the 70s, and angry conservative white dudes were saying the EXACT same thing forty years ago. They couldn’t fathom a reason for women to march.

Not gonna lie, I love it.

That is really good news!

Honestly, George looks more pregnant than she does.
Like, stop it InTouch, this is creepy.
