Pride and Prejudice (2005)

You may only call me ‘Mrs. Darcy’ when you are completely and perfectly and incandescently happy.

“Look at them. They all care so much. Do you ever wonder if there’s something wrong with us?”
“All lives end. All hearts are broken. Caring is not an advantage, Sherlock.”

We live in an amazing beachside location in Australia. When we travel we can be a bit snobbish about coastlines as we make comparisons but Bay of Fires on the island of Tasmania, stopped us in our tracks.

Nasir and Castus deleted scene from The Dead and the Dying

1.       1.Nasir’s hair is not on point. He is truly distraught cause we have seen baby in battles and his hair has remained flawlessly intact. He is a training a guppy and that hair is jacked.

2.       2. Castus has nice tits. Real nice.

3.       3. Nasir, SO glad that you understood what Agron was trying to do, part of his reasoning because some of your fans didn’t get it.

4.       4.They really needed this scene and I do not know why it was cut, it really makes no sense. It falls perfectly in-line with the story. it was character insight, story development.

courtneystoker:

[A paragraph from Michael Kimmel’s A Gendered Society: Recent survey data suggest a somewhat different interpretation. Junior high school students in north-midwestern states (Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North and South Dakota) were asked what they would do if the next morning they awoke to find themselves transformed into the opposite sex. The girls thought about the question for a while, expressed modest disappointment, and then described the kinds of things they would do if they were suddenly transformed into boys. Become a doctor, fireman, policeman, or baseball player were typical answers. The boys, by contrast, took virtually no time before answering. “Kill myself” was the most common answer when they contemplated the possibility of life as a girl.]

Yeah, tell me again how misogyny “isn’t real” and men and boys actually “love”, “like” and “respect the female sex”? This is how deep misogynistic propaganda runs in this world. Men and boys are so viscerally contemptuous of anything or anyone who/that is female or feminine, or perceived to be female or feminine, that they would rather commit suicide than to be associated with— or become a member of— the female sex. As Germaine Greer said, “women have no idea how much men hate them.”

New video!

‘Fish Bowl’

I used to visit you and sit on one side of a sheet of glass, tapping gentle morse code ripples across a tank.

Apparently fish are calming for people like you.

I wasn’t calm when I realised that this place was a giant fish bowl and you were all floating, inhaling pure oxygen and being kept from the deep end.

Let’s not pretend our family has ever shared much more than a name.

You weren’t grand and I was much the same.

My strongest memories are of your stronger days you’d pick me up and I’d reach the ceiling, what a feeling, you watched me grow. I watched you unlearn how to smoke a cigarette. I listened to your only son telling you where your wife had gone, you both sat as mirror images gone wrong like a bad game of Guess Who.

I watched you shrink.

I blocked out conversations I shouldn’t have ever had to hear with fingers in each ear. I hummed to drown them out until they were just goldfish mouths. My parents must’ve thought I couldn’t carry a tune. I was carrying you.

At the end, you looked into my eyes and I don’t know who you had in mind but I was eternalised as ‘nice girl’. Nice girl you called me, that was how you saw me and suddenly I’m five years old in the back seat of your Ford and I’ve always been told be polite or your granda will scold. Nice girl.

I’m twenty and I sit in a house where you spent your best days and I’d love to know will we end up the same way? A lifetime erased, just a shell with a face.

buffythesamoyed:

The Animal Rescue Site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily so they can meet their quota of getting FREE FOOD donated every day to abused and neglected animals in their shelters.

It takes less than a minute (only about 15 seconds actually) to go to their site and click on the purple box titled, ‘Click Here to Give - it’s FREE!’. Every click gives about .6 bowls of food to sheltered dogs. You can also click daily!

Keep in mind that this does not cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate food to abandoned/neglected animals in exchange for advertising. [via.]

Go to the website here.

Help an animal out with a free click each day!
