I’m actually happy with how my wife’s pearl wig turned out! This was my first attempt at using a felt form to shape a wig. I missed taking a picture of the wefts on the cone but I just fabric glued them all around it, sprayed the hecky-decky out of it with got2b glued hair spray, sewed the hair-cone onto the wig and swept the extra hair back to cover the edges then sprayed everything in place. I can’t wait to make the pearl and spear!

This is so cool!

HOT DIGGITY DAYUM

Steven Universe and Moms and Dads

brigidkeely:

There’s a vocal contingent of fans of Steven Universe crying out for more representation. Why aren’t there MALE Crystal Gems, they bleat and moan, even though Gems are genderless and their physical bodies shape-shifted manifestations that almost but not quite approximate human bodies.

This complaint manages to miss one point entirely, that Steven’s world is almost completely devoid of moms. There’s one place where men are dominant and its in parenting roles. 

Steven’s mom, Rose Quartz, is famously absent. Onion’s mom has (apparently) been seen in flash back but it’s his dad we’ve seen a few times day to day and who Sour Cream mentions as a parental figure. The Pizza family has a matriarch, but Jenny and Kiki’s mom isn’t there. The Fryman family is all male, a father and two sons. Buck Dewey’s dad is the mayor, his mom hasn’t been seen. The only moms we HAVE seen/heard about are Connie’s, and Sadie’s mom who still makes her lunches.

Men play a big role in Steven Universe. They are supportive and caring and they might not understand their weird kids they still love and protect them. They do the physical and emotional work that’s usually expected of women, and they do it whole-heartedly. They are kind and brave and selfless and strong.

It’s a portrait of masculinity that we rarely see, in a world where men are generally portrayed in shows, commercials, etc as bumbling fools who need to be parented by their wives. It’s beautiful.

In 180 Seconds You Will Be Voting For Bernie Sanders 

We need to give this man the media attention he deserves because he does not have the funds that the other potential candidates have.

I’m over it with elected officials being backed by big money and using our votes to get the top 1% more money. Bernie has said NO to a SuperPAC and to billionaire funding, so we need to throw our votes behind him and show THE ENTIRE WORLD, including our own corporations and financial institutions that AMERICA IS NOT FOR SALE!!!!

like i rly wanna start volunteering for his campaign tho

Here’s a link to volunteer for the campaign.

DID HE SAY PUBLIC COLLEGE AND TUITION FREE

Yes, yes he did. 

We can’t stress enough the importance of circulating Bernie Sanders’ message through social media. Everyone with money doesn’t want his message to get out. The mainstream media doesn’t want his message to get out, the political establishment doesn’t want his message to get out. It only gets out if we make it get out.

Happy Father’s Day!

#you know what i’m actually really grateful for this gif set #because like the thing with mother’s day and father’s day is that not everyone has great biological parents #and sometimes the person who was a mother/father/parent to you wasn’t your biological parent but they’re still super important #zuko’s bio dad was trash but iroh was there for him every step of the way and became a father to him #and the fact that he’s not zuko’s biological dad doesn’t make him less of a father to him #and that’s important
