i wish i was a mermaid so i could have a nice shiny tail and a pretty seashell bra and a beautiful voice that i could use to entice cute boys and make them crash their ships and drown at sea so human women could rise as the dominate gender of the land

YOOOOOOO

THIS IS THE RADDEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE

holy shit

this seems like the most useful thing ever, forget clothing. Watch the video.

*GASPS HOMESTUCK COSPLAYERS*

From Uncle and the Treacle Trouble by J.P. Martin (Jonathan Cape 1967):

On one landing they saw a huge notice:

JUBBER VANTY’S SUITINGS. Plastic suit sprayed on while you wait. Pay, then get sprayed.

Uncle shook his head. “I hope there is no sharp practice going on here,” he said. “We’ll have to look into the matter before long…”

And 46 years later, fiction becomes reality - start with a tee-shirt, work up to a suit. (Sewing the buttons on is going to sting a bit!) :->

Different Sherlock portrayals as cats. Because I can.

House is the uncontrollable crazy cat.

Robert Downey Jr. cat is the flaunting type.

BBC Sherlock is the brooding cat.

Elementary Sherlock is the cuddly one.

Canon Sherlock is an awesome YouTube keyboard cat that Watson is always impressed by.

So pretty much all just one cat at various points in the day.

I HAVE AN AMAZING IDEA

IT IS AN IDEA I HAD A WHILE BACK BUT IT IS ACTUALLY KIND OF FLESHING ITSELF OUT:

Manic Pixie Dream Girls as a narrative are kind of universally reviled, correct? I was thinking one day like, how do you make one AWESOME? Because movies featuring MPDGs are never ever about the MPDG herself, because she is not a person, she is an idea. And because we only see her through the eyes of fuckin Zack Braff or whatever, she is basically a blank slate.

My instinct is always to turn a blank slate character into something violent and dark and awful, so why not make her secretly terrifying??? Not in an existential way, but in a badass spysassin way.

BASICALLY MY MOVIE GOES LIKE THIS:

I WANT THIS MOVIE IN MY FACE.

I love this. Partly because I’m sometimes concerned that I am a manic pixie dreamgirl myself. It would be really cool to see a movie like this where a woman can be strange and have diverse interests but not for the benefit of “opening the eyes” of some boring douchebag.

Glasgow nightclub features secret one-way mirrors into the the women’s bathrooms.

This may be the least classy gimmick ever: a nightclub with a one-way mirror in the women’s bathroom.

In a creepy combination of peep show and police interrogation room, customers at Glasgow’s Shimmy Club can hire two private “Smoke & Mirrors” booths that align with the women’s bathroom sinks. On the other side of the glass, girls wash their hands, retouch their makeup, and pose for drunken selfies—unaware that they’re being watched.

Thanks to guys posting their “Smoke & Mirrors” pics on Twitter and Instagram, Scottish newspaper The Express broke the story earlier this week, provoking disgust among, well… anyone who has ever used a bathroom. While the Shimmy Club claims that there are signs posted to alert women of the two-way mirrors, the Express quotes horrified club-goers who were completely unaware of the situation.

So far, the Shimmy Club has done little more than post a non-apology on Facebook. “The Shimmy Club’s two-way mirror is a design feature created as a bit of fun,” the message reads. “The vast majority of people who have visited the club have taken it as such.” Additionally, a representative from G1 Group, the company that owns the Shimmy Club, is quoted in the Express as saying that there are no one-way mirrors at all. An intriguing statement, considering the fact that the club’s original promo video features what seems to be a short clip filmed through the mirrors themselves. Not exactly a PR success story.

Why Do Men Keep Putting Me in the Girlfriend-Zone?

Wed, 22 May 2013 07:30:46 -0500

fuckingrapeculture:

literaryreference:

You know how it is, right, ladies? You know a guy for a while. You hang out with him. You do fun things with him—play video games, watch movies, go hiking, go to concerts. You invite him to your parties. You listen to his problems. You do all this because you think he wants to be your friend.

But then, then comes the fateful moment where you find out that all this time, he’s only seen you as a potential girlfriend. And then if you turn him down, he may never speak to you again. This has happened to me time after time: I hit it off with a guy, and, for all that I’ve been burned in the past, I start to think that this one might actually care about me as a person. And then he asks me on a date.

I tell him how much I enjoy his company, how much I value his friendship. I tell him that I really want to be his friend and to continue hanging out with him and talking about our favorite books or exploring new restaurants or making fun of avant-garde theatre productions. But he rejects me. He doesn’t answer my calls or e-mails; if we’d been making plans to do something before this fateful incident, these plans mysteriously fail to materialize. (This is why I never did get around to seeing the Hunger Games movie. Not to name any names, but thanks a lot, Tom.) Later, when I run into him at social events, our conversations are awkward and lukewarm. This is because the moment we met, he put me in the girlfriend-zone, and now he can’t see me as friend material.

I must say that I find this really unfair. I mean, I’m a nice girl. I have a lot to offer as a friend, like not being a douchebag and stuff. But males just don’t want to be friends with nice girls like me. They can’t help it, I guess; it’s just how they’re wired, biologically. Evolution conditioned our male hominid ancestors to seek nice girls as mates and form friendship bonds only with the other dudes that they hunted mammoths with. It’s true—I know this because I studied hominids in my fifth-grade science class.

So what’s the answer? Should I take up mammoth-hunting in an attempt to appeal to the friendship centers of men’s primal lizardbrains? Should I keep making guy “friends” and then prevent them from making a move on me by subtly undermining their self-confidence? Should I just give up on those manipulative, game-playing, two-faced bastards once and for all? I don’t know. I mean, I’d really like to have a true friendship with a guy someday, but it’s so hard to trust and respect them when they never say what they mean—and you never know when you might be relegated to the girlfriend-zone.

Mark a.k.a. Broken Journalist created this awesome steampunk AT-AT walker as an engagement present for his fiancée. There are so many wonderful little details on this piece. It’s clearly a labour of geeky love.

To Mark and his Star Wars and steampunk-loving lass, the Geyser of Awesome congratulations on your engagement!

My grandmother grew up in this tiny village in Barbados, and she was the only kid in the village to have a cricket bat. She used to play with all the boys, but then they started stealing the bat every time she bought it out of the house and saying that she couldn’t play because girls shouldn’t play sport. So one day she invited them to come play cricket, then set fire to the bat and made them watch it burn, so none of them could play cricket anymore. She was 11.

“Used to crush on”? Really, Clint?

Clint, is there anyone in the 616 (or anywhere for that matter) that you haven’t had a crush on?

Who can’t beat him up? Because he won’t be attracted to them.

Fun fact: Cheetahs only attack prey that runs

jesus that is good to know.

Yup, that’s the point you just stay still and let it do whatever the fuck it wants that doesn’t involved you getting eaten.

REALLY FUN FACT for big cats cheetahs are fucking docile as shit

my grandfather ran a cheetah sanctuary in south africa and he’d just lie with them and sleep among them and they’d rub against him and chirp at him they’re big fucking babies

Another Fun Fact: Cheetahs are incredibly nervous animals. One of the (many) reason’s they’re going extinct is that cheetahs are so sensitive and nervous, some of them are literally too nervous to breed. Others will breed, but stress themselves out so much, they’ll lose their cubs.

So zoos with breeding programs had to figure out how to make cheetahs comfortable enough to first of all, get laid and secondly - not spazz themselves into miscarrying.

So what’d they do?
They gave the cheetah’s their very own Service Dogs!

The dogs make them feel safe, protected and secure!

AJHHHHFDDGHH SO PRECIOUS

this post just got so much better

THIS IS OFFICIALLY MY FAVOURITE POST
