I don’t think I’ve ever gotten this much of a response on my art on tumblr before. Thanks everyone <3 Even my mama loves the mirrors, she doesn’t even like anime but said she’d totally hang the Sailor Moon one up because it’s so pretty :)
Anyhow, getting all packed up and ready to go to Daisho Con tomorrow, let’s hope that the mirror and everything else is well received there ^^

blurred lines is catchy in the way ring around the rosie is catchy before you find out it’s about the plague
SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT
Oh. My. God. This is the perfect explanation. I actually really like the music and beat to the song, and just the sound of it, but then… the lyrics… and just… it’s like you’re in the car nodding your head to the music and then, “I got somethin’ that’ll surely tear your ass in two,” and you just kinda stop like, “… wha-?”
“I know you want it~”
And suddenly you can’t groove to the beat anymore because you can’t believe you just heard that.
I INTERRUPT THIS PROGRAM TO SHOW YOU A BRILLIANT VIDEO THAT USES DIFFERENT SCENES OF THE ANIME TO CREATE A DIFFERENT TIMELINE IN LIKE 4 MINUTES
THIS IS AMAZING WOW YOU GOTTA WATCH THIS IT’S STILL SO TRAGIC
Holy…
;__;

Makeup from the photoshoot I did today with the talented Eric James.
It’s technically a high-fashion reimagining of Sailor Uranus, but it also really just makes me think of Kanji Tatsumi~
That moment when your friends take really hot pictures and the friend crushes begins <3
holy fuck
Well…that escalated quickly.
I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT
but it turned out to be everything i wanted
Wow.
*slow clap*
remember on ff.net when the authors used to have arguments with the characters in the authors notes
I am so guilty of doing this it’s not even funny. Oh man, those were the days.
Only white women have the privilege of reclaiming the word ‘slut’ without facing any real social penalty. Miley Cyrus, for instance, is being hailed as a woman who is in control and liberated, unlike her black counterpart Rihanna. Rihanna does not get worshiped for owning her sexuality or her agency. Rihanna gets pity, scathing criticism, and popular feminist magazines wanting to ‘save’ her from exercising choices they do not agree with. Many mainstream feminists feel entitled to police Rihanna’s black female body; even Lena Dunham could not resist. However, if you look closely you can see that Miley has been feverishly studying and has been influenced by the Rihanna’s bad girl playbook.
White women may also be allowed to transcend their ‘sluttiness’ when they feel the need to do so. Both Angelina Jolie and Madonna have been able to shed their past bad girl images seamlessly. Whiteness affords white women the ability to try on different identities while their racial privilege remains intact. Because in a society that values whiteness over all else, to be white is to be human and all non-white persons must audition for their humanity.
The bodies of black women are highly politicized and critiqued no matter who they belong to, from the first lady to ‘the help.’ The physical movements and choices of black women are always viewed through a filter of suspicion. In order for me to claim my right to be a ‘slut,’ I first must win the battle to be able to fully claim my humanity.
