I'm probably not going to put this on the official etsy just because I don't think anyone will take me seriously if I use a photo with the words "Enjolras, pierced by [redacted] balls" as *actual* marketing material but I figured tumblr les mis might get a kick out of my painfully symbolic les mis bracelet on an amusingly positioned extract of the text

(text is my two volume everyman's library les mis from 1947, wilbour translation)

actual bracelet with non dodgy photos can be found on my etsy page @daisychainsbyM

Auto Mechanics Pose Dramatically to Recreate Renaissance Paintings

Photographer Freddy Fabris has paid homage to the great Renaissance master painters using his camera instead of a brush. This unique tribute—aptly called The Renaissance Series—fuses contemporary culture with the dramatic styling of the original portraits.

MAGNIFICENT

The photos and lighting are great; let’s also hear it for the models, whose faces are both wonderfully expressive and remarkably in-period for Renaissance art.

I’ve reblogged this so many times without ever noticing Judas making a phone call.

Muslim brothers and sisters

So I found this app called Scan Halal where you scan the bar code of your food and it tells you if its halal or not. It’s a free app too. Pass this on so others can see and worry a little less about their food/snack choices

Yessss, it is very handy especially in non-muslim countries

If you reblog this for no other reason, do it because it’ll piss off Pauline Hanson. And pissing off Pauline Hanson is reason enough to do anything.

Pissing off Pauline Hanson is my favourite pass time

If you reblog this for no other reason, reblog it to make a Muslim feel safer, more accepted, and/or more informed about food.

Other people and their needs are not your game pieces to use to offend others or make yourself feel better.

This is actually a cool app! I had a customer come into my candy store and we discovered that certain flavors of the same brand of candy sticks were okay to eat! It was really handy for them to be able to scan it rather than rely on the ingredient list, which could be flawed sometimes! 

Ooooh this is neat!

Nice!

For those wondering “why don’t you just read the ingredients”: Even if you trust the ingredient list, you don’t know which “natural flavors” were used, and you may not know where the various chemicals came from. And a lot of people have a hard time reading tiny print, and don’t want to stand in the aisle for five minutes trying to work their way through 95 words of 4-point type.

So glad this exists! We need more ways for people to find the info that’s important to them!

I just can’t fuck w anyone who says casting agents can’t hire a disabled actor to play a disabled role because the disabled actor won’t be able to play the parts of the disabled character accurately enough because they are disabled

[ID: a digitally drawn two-panel comic. / Image 1: Text reads: “How I expected using a cane would feel:” Panel depicts a miserable person in tattered clothes, hunched over a cane and shaking as she walks. / Image 2: Text reads: “How it actually feels:” Panel depicts the same person, now standing tall and wearing flowing wizard robes and a long white beard. Her cane is at her side, glowing with magic, and she looks confident and powerful. /End ID]

Ooooh, can you do one for wheelchairs except it’s a throne? Because I definitely feel like I’m cruising around on a throne.

How I think a wheelchair will make me feel:

How my wheelchair actually makes me feel:

That’s it! That’s it exactly!

I haven’t gotten a wheelchair yet (blargh hoops) but I’ve rented and used scooters at places and

how you think it’d feel:

how it actually feels:

If I may add,

How I thought forearm crutches would make me feel:

How forearm crutches actually make me feel:

[ID2: A woman sitting in a wheelchair at an airport looking at something in her lap vs a video game character with purple hair leaning back casually while flying around in a throne-like one-person open craft.

ID3: An old man on a mobility scooter vs a person in racing gear and a helmet whizzing by on a four wheeler.

ID4: A person with forearm crutches staring off into the sunset vs an anime character standing on rock outcrop wielding two swords.]

This!!!!! This is what young disabled people should be exposed to. We are powerful! Fantastic! Hot and cool as hell!!!! Use your mobility aid and discover your inner badass.
