literally every sleep advice pamphlet and website: don’t do things before bedtime! no reading! no video games! don’t watch tv! nothing stimulating at all within two hours of going to bed! :)

me, an adhd: you fools. you buffoons. i can’t even manage one minute without stimulation. i will die before following this advice and that is a threat

I don’t need fancy. I’m not high maintenance at all. I’m perfectly okay with ordering take out and watching Netflix all night long. Or when we go out, doing fun, cliche things like mini golf and getting ice cream. I really don’t need much, as long as I’m with the person who makes me happy. That’s more than good enough.

Okay like. Sometimes a touch of fancy would be nice for like... Big things??

But like. 99% of the time??? This.

Unless it's my makeup.

Before the computing era, ILM was the master of oil matte painting, making audiences believe that some of the sets in the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogy were real when they weren’t. They were the work of geniuses like Chris Evans, Michael Pangrazio, Frank Ordaz, Harrison Ellenshaw and Ralph McQuarrie Forever thank you, to their handmade art and the work of their colleagues, that made us dream of impossible worlds and fantastic places across Earth and the Universe.

There are more background paintings on this article, featuring comments by the masters/artists themselves ! 

Some of the following pieces were made by other artists 2:

exCUSE ME?!?!!??!??! TheYRE PAINTINGS?!??!!?!

SHUT UP I thought they were miniatures!!!!

It’s too beautiful. I could cry.

I love this because I’ll be watching a movie and think “how did they do that? Is that a building they built for this movie? Was it there beforehand? Is it cardboard or CGI? Is that actually some place on Earth that they’re filming?” And the answer to all of these now is “nope, that’s a painting”. I can’t believe some of the most iconic, familiar shots were paintings!

Looking back, every decade of the 1900s feels like a separate and totally unique culture, while the past two decades feel like they blur together into something with little to no identity.

if i reblog a terf, its an accident and i want to know so i can delete the post

for cis people who may not know what to look for, check for these things in someone’s bio:

  • gender critical
  • radfem (although not always a 100% qualifier, it usually does lead to trans exclusionary discourse)
  • “Detransitioned female”
  • A huge obsession with genitals, including reducing other cis women to their vaginas
  • If they have “TERF” anywhere in their bio or their blog and it isn’t ironic, be cautious
  • Saying things like “TERF is a slur!”
  • If they have a lot of content where they call trans women “dysphoric men” or “male to trans,” get outta there
  • If they keep pushing the narrative that “TERF” is synonymous with “lesbian” (it’s not), or that trans women are trying to force cis women to have sex with them (we’re not)
  • “Natal Women”

And that’s just what I can think of off the top of my head from all of my numerous experiences with these people

one of the things i really like about los angeles is all the men hanging around with trucks full of produce

the first time i saw one was at home depot, the sun was setting, and i was with a group of friends. and right there, in the middle of the parking lot, was a giant truck filled with pomegranates, so high that he couldn’t possibly drive like that, but it was amazing

i literally stopped in my tracks. i’d never seen so many pomegranates in my life. i took pictures. i was so excited. my friends were laughing at me. people walking by were laughing at me. the guy who had the truck full of pomegranates was laughing at me. but i was thrilled. a truckful of pomegranates just right there, hundreds of them, the same color as the setting sun

maybe it’s weird to romanticize a pile of fruit, but i was thoroughly charmed. 

anyway. i left the bank today, and there was a truck of oranges. so many oranges, piled almost as high as i was tall. the man had cut some of them into slices and put a bowl next the bank entrance. ‘free samples!’ he hollered. i took one. it was firm and sweet and i pulled it off the skin in one motion. i bought a bag for $5, and he studied them before choosing one for me, picking up one bag and then putting it down to grab another. ‘they’re sweet,’ he promised.

there’s something so satisfying about it, about going to cash a check or pick up some nails, and being confronted with a huge pile of brightly colored fruit, a cheerful splash of color against concrete. 

support your local man with a truck full of fruit. they’re sweet. i promise. 

You’ve heard of “The Baker and The Tattoo artist” now get ready for, “The produce delivery guy, and the random ass person that loves FUCKING fruit”

is … is fucking an adjective or a verb here? because that, um, changes things

Is the story about lemons or is the story the lemon?

reproductive rights issues:

  • abortion
  • birth control

also reproductive rights issues:

  • doctors performing c sections during births without informed consent
  • eugenics via sterilization requirements for trans people to change documentation
  • eugenics via forced/nonconsenting sterilization of disabled people
  • eugenics via forced/nonconsenting sterilization of people of color
  • eugenics via selective abortion of disabled fetuses (fetuses with Down syndrome especially) (these are abortions sought by people who WANT to be pregnant–but only with non-disabled children, when there’s absolutely no guarantee that a non-disabled child won’t become disabled)

if your reproductive rights activism doesn’t incorporate ALL OF THE ABOVE, i want no part of it.
