you really only have to do a full face for like two of them - one with normal brows, and one with angry brows for when you’re planning to eat someone. the rest of the heads you can get off with a foundation and a little blush or highlighter. they’ll be too busy fleeing for their lives to really notice.

apparently redbacks and black widows are the same genus, latrodectae, and use the same kind of venom, latrotoxin, which requires medical attention in only about 20% of cases. and since the advent of effective antivenoms in the 80s, there are no confirmed deaths from either. in fact, sometimes they apparently don’t…

does that work well? at 32 i still have breakouts on the regular but between stubble and the older acne scarring (whoa folks, take a line, there’s enough of me to go around), i don’t know how well makeup would work?

i don’t know how you all manage. if i ran that country we’d have the fire helicopters going 24/7, just dropping buckets of raid on the countryside.

i did not understand that reference. i would absolutely watch an action movie in which keanu is killed and his dog goes on a revenge-killing spree, but the opposite is just cruel and perverse

contrast with the lawsuit against azucar bakery. some prick tried to order a cake with hate speech on it, hoping to make the left look hypocritical, but the bakery was fully willing to sell them a cake and even the materials to put their hate speech on said cake - they just refused to write it. and they got sued…

when i was a child i was deathly afraid of any and all spiders, back when i thought the black widow was the deadliest spider known to man

which is yes a somewhat unpleasant thought but it gave her the setup for this fantastic scorched-earth burn, so yanno, silver linings and that

i was like 23. someone very dear to me was like 29 or 30. it’s nbd. honestly, looking back over my history of perversion, the sex was only worth the effort it took to have it about 8-12% of the time.

fair!

i only sided with the winning team once, and i owe that to mizz sasha fierce

mirren definitely wins in the acting skill category - not that bjork is bad, but it’s helen mirren. but in terms of the combination of acting talent and suitability to the role, i would say that’s about a dead tie.

it’s entirely possible the top ones are decoy eyes - but who’s going to be fooled if you only do up the one pair? you gotta get some fake lashes to go with your fake eyes, or the birds will see right through it

that’s fair. they’re both good choices. unlike groundhog which is barely mythical at all. a little magical thinking does not a myth make!

ooh but if bjork came back to acting for the role of a lifetime as a russian witch who eats people, then it starts to be more of a conflict...

if we’re going to fantasy cast then i have to imagine helen mirren as the mothwoman and that’s an open and shut case, for me

mac would be in love - they could sell twice the eye shadow!

i was all set to suck some marrow out of dudes’ femurs with baba yaga, but then you went and sold me on the actual hypothetical aesthetic of mothwoman.

rape cases cost schools money. whether it’s the students who won’t go there because they heard about it, or an actual lawsuit for mishandling a case, or because a college employee was the perpetrator, or because the perpetrator is suing the school for expelling him. even if the school wins a case, it still costs them…
