I cannot fully express how much I love this yes yes YES.

I GET TO BE AN ART DIRECTOR AT A CAMP THIS YEAR I HAVE BLUE HAIR I AM LIVING MY WILDEST "who cares i can't wait to be this lady" dreams at 21.

Mm: so: minor fiddly point: the actor playing Dong, Ki Hong Lee, isn't an unknown at all; he's really well known in teenage girl circles for playing Minho in The Maze Runner.

I think that's a fair-critique-of-the-critique (whoah), but I think the problem is that these casting and representation choices don't exist inside of a vacuum— I think some people are worried about the distinctness (ethnically/culturally/nationally) of Asian people being lost and other people are worried about Asian

I think that's a really fair critique, but I still really like Dong? I think he's a

I grew up without a lot of money and so my parents didn't have the resources to put me in something like ballet even though it was something I desperately wanted and now I'm old (21) and I'm also fat and I really can't watch ballet without crying because I'll never really float or fly like that, I'll never be wispy

Oh my god black honey. A friend of mine wore it as part of a Halloween costume and I was like "oh man, is that Clinique Black Honey," and she was like how did you do that and I explained that I had been lusting after some for a while and she gave me what was left in the tube that she had stolen from her sister. And

oh my god this is why my college doesn't have varsity sports anymore.

OH TO BE A FLY ON THE MERYL STREEP/JLO WALL.

Malcolm X's Islamic faith continues to be one of the most alienating aspects of his activism- I know so many people who do not support him as a thinker or leader because "he wasn't with Christ." No problem with the way he advocated for violence- it's that he wasn't a Christian. Your comment's great, and I'm so glad it

I'm betting they're using syphilis as the example disease because if they say "HIV" outright everyone will know what this is actually about...

I'm betting "syphilis" is the example disease because if they come out and say "HIV" outright, then people will see this for what it is.

The photos look shitty because they have her in a ton of makeup that doesn't seem to be right for her skin tone and they have her in very harsh lighting. Like, yeah, Bey has pores and looks human and I have no doubt that these photos are unretouched but also they have her in conditions that will make anyone look like a

sounds like you got some stuff by arthur court- hang onto it for a while. it's good stuff, well made, and some people are REALLY into it.
