This is part 1 of 4 in our POC photoshoot in cooperation with @haenuli . In one day we shot 16 looks with 4 models. It was crazy!

More photos from part 1, and all 4 sets, can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/LEMillerPhoto/ Why did we do it? This is what the models had to say: @loliville : I felt frustrated at the lack of representation, but also that someone was telling these girls and guys that they couldn’t wear lolita because of something as petty as melanin distribution. Who does that? @taratiki17 : I have been into lolita for a few years now and even though I really love it there was always that feeling that I could never really do it justice because of my skin tone or race. After a while, when I began to take more photos and share them with others, I started getting a lot of positive feedback from many people, but mainly African American women saying how inspired they were to see a representation of themselves in the lolita community. There’s something about seeing someone who has similar characteristics as yourself being featured in something you love that gives you a boost of confidence to say “I can do it too”! I’ve felt that feeling myself and will always try to give that same inspiration to others who really need it! 

Britney: This shoot was done in response to the lack of representation of darker skinned people within the lolita community. We would like to challenge the perception that Lolitas all fit one “mold” and hope to open the door for others in the community to come out and show our diversity. @kawaiilifetv: All of these beautiful photos came as the result of hearing that women of color “can not wear lolita”. That women of color were too afraid to wear this obscure yet beautiful fashion because of the hate that they could possibly get from the color of their skin. Well here we are breaking the mold, and I hope we inspire everyone else who are second guessing themselves to break it too.

Ok, ok, so I know I promised you losers I’d made some Free!-licious mackerel, but alas, I felt like it’d taste better if I marinated it for a day or two, so while I’m letting that sit, I thought I’d do another popular anime-tastic recipe called drumroll pls  TAKO-FUCKIN-YAKI For those of you who are unaware of this delicious fuckin summer treat, it’s basically like…a ball thing that’s filled with pieces of octopus and stuff, and then it’s covered in tonkatsu sauce and kewpie mayo and furikake and bonito flakes and seaweed and it’s just so fuckin hella delicious jesus christ im crying just thinking about these lil balls of perfection. So yeah. lets make some fuckin takoyaki balls motherfucker. OH YEAH. PS: if you don’t have a takoyaki pan, don’t flip a shit, just get innovative and heat up a fuckin metal mini muffin tin, or use a cake pop or donut hole maker/pan thing if you have it. Any sort of pan that has remotely round filly things is gonna work fine for your takoyaki.

~

Takoyaki (serves: shit I think like about 20 pieces. maybe more. it serves anime. that’s what it serves. just all sorts of anime. fukin. god just read the recipe)

-

Ingredients-

  • 1 cup Seafood/fish/veggie stock 
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup plus 1 Tbsp all purpose flour
  • Octopus tentacles cut into lil cute chunky chunks
  • Veggie oil (for nonstick pan purposes)
  • 3 Tbsp tonkatsu sauce
  • Furikake
  • Some Kewpie mayo*
  • Dried green seaweed flakes
  • Dried bonito flakes

*I’ll say this once and I’ll say it a thousand fucking times. These recipes require KEWPIE mayo. Not regular mayo. Not home made mayo (though that is fun to make), not the mayo that comes from yo mama’s bootay. KEWPIE. FUCKIN. MAYO. The taste between kewpie mayo and regular mayo are totally different (cough kewpie is better cough) and you’re not gonna have a good time if you use anything other than kewpie.

Where can you get Kewpie mayo? Your local asian grocery store, sometimes even a regular grocery store. Fuck, get it online. But you can’t sub it out for regular mayo, friend. Don’t do it.

~

Procedure-

  • Put the stock, egg, salt, soy sauce, and flour in a bowl and mix that shit up. Heat up your takoyaki pan until it’s hella hot.
  • Now, get your lil octo-chunks and the batter, and using a tablespoon, pour the batter halfway into the thing, then put an octo-chunk in, and then fill it up till it reaches the top.
  • Let that shit cook for like 3 minutes or until it’s browned a bit on the bottom and the top is like, cooked a bit around the edges.
  • Then, using chopsticks or hella big toothpicks, flip it over. You are not going to get this right on the first try unless you’re the second coming of our Lord and Savior Godoka. It’ll take a few tries, but u got dis friend.
  • Once you’re done with all the takoyaki, put them in a bowl or whatever and make the tonkatsu sauce. Using a teaspoon, ladle the sauce over the takoyaki.
  • Then, sprinkle the furikake over all of the balls. After that, add the mayo by just kinda drizzling it over the takoyaki.
  • After that, top it with the seaweed flakes, followed by the bonito flakes.
  • Share these with your anime boo while you’re watching some anime fireworks at the anime summer festival or some shit idk.

~ Yeah. That’s really all there is to it. See, cooking sounds or looks hard or whatever, but like if you just take things step by step, you realize it’s all actually super duper easy, even the super cool and fancy looking shit.

So yeah. Embrace your inner anime and make these lil octo-balls of happiness 24/7 while watching some beautiful harem bullshit show.

Later, nerds.

How to Cast Young Han Solo

All right Disney, listen up:

1) Forget casting some charisma-free, milquetoast professional actor. 

2) Get in your car, and start driving around LA construction sites. 

3) Find the hottest guy there hammering nails.

4) Ask if he wants to be an actor.

5) If he shrugs and says, “Yeah, sure, I guess.”

6) CAST HIM

“My mother boils seawater. It sits all afternoon simmering on the stovetop, almost two gallons in a big soup pot. The windows steam up and the house smells like a storm. In the evening, a crust of salt is all that’s left at the bottom of the pot. My mother scrapes it out with a spoon. We each lick a fingertip and dip them in the salt and it’s softer than you’d think, less like sand and more like snow. We lay our fingertips on our tongues, right in the middle. It tastes like salt but like something else, too—wide, and dark. It tastes like drowning, or like falling asleep on the shore and only waking up when the tide has come up to your feet and you wonder if you’d gone on sleeping, would you have sunk?”
