i'm not supposed to be here

the path of wisdom is sometimes to hire a plumber.

Natural Black Hair Tutorial! Usually Black hair is excluded in the hair tutorials which I have seen so I have gone through it in depth because it’s really not enough to tell someone simply, “Black hair is really curly, draw it really curly.” 

We’re resharing this Brief But Spectacular episode of Rebecca Hall, who explains how she dove into her family’s history after discovering that her mother’s biracial identity was being erased. In her journey, she discovered the book “Passing,” by Nella Larsen, written at the height of the Harlem Renaissance about the complexities of “white passing” in America.

In 2021, Rebecca wrote and directed the film adaptation of the novel.

like, this is a man who would very clearly get winded if you just walked around him and he had to keep standing and turning around to face you, let alone if he tried to keep squaring up to you...

He DOES own and run his own business, they even have pension funds. His apartment might be run down but it's clean and tidy and decorated with pictures of his loved ones. He can cook and clean (look me in the eye and tell me Loona has ever done chores. His bald ass is probably cleaning fur and feathers out of the bath drain now). He has a calendar he writes future plans into and keeps on top of appointments. He's sooooo patient as a dad with Loona and went to pick her up from a party no questions asked even after having a terrible night. He's extremely competent at his actual job which must require regular exercise and training.

When you write down on YT something like "defence of helluva boss" you will have 50 different videos about defending Stolas and 3 'bout Blitz...

So many people seem to be unable to see things as complex and hold multiple truths at once; i think it's because the target audience for HB is 20-somethings who likely don't meet Real People as often as they should. There's a plethora of reasons this would be the case so ion judge, but to some people, a jerk is just a jerk.

1. Living Stones

these plants imitate rocks. who does that?

imagine deciding to straight up evolve into rocks as a defense mechanism. i had a whole rant planned but now i’m remembering that i have, in the past, on multiple occasions, daydreamed about being a rock. like that has been a recurring theme in my rich inner fantasy life. i would not forsake the opportunity to evolve into a stone.

2. Hooker’s Lips

ostentatious. flamboyant. vulgar. garish. randy. dare i say whorish? yes. this plant is whorish.

pucker up you hussy

3. Hoya Hearts

overused trope. lacks subtlety and creativity. truly, they just went with the first thought to pop in their head, no brainstorming involved. “ho ho ho i’m just gonna grow into a fucking HEART, that’ll show em!” Needy & basic bitch. looks cute on a desk

4. Lifesaver Plants

manages to be both psychedelic and disapproving. reminiscent of a prudish great aunt–but like, one who did a lot of LSD in the 70s. evidence of an alien lifeform who crash landed and then decided, fuck it, i’m gonna rent a one-story in the midwest and decorate it with vintage wood paneling & floral upholstery. probably smells like stale weed and glass ashtrays

5. Happy Alien Flowers

yes that is their NAME. sort of anticlimactic, but take a gander:

they are absolute sluts for drama, as demonstrated by the little hussies pictured above are YELLING AT ME. they bring to mind seagulls engaged in a Shakespearean blood feud. this flowers have committed aggravated manslaughter and probably got away with it too.

6. Bat Plant 

aka Cat’s Whiskers aka Devil Flower. how fucking emo is that??? this plant listens to mcr and is probably the gay cousin. they never got the hang of eyeliner but that doesn’t stop them from trying, bless em. their impetuous devil-may-care persona is hindered by their crippling social anxiety. i’m immensely fond of this plant. they’ll come into their own once they graduate and move away from college, but in the mean time they sit with the tech crew at lunch. you go little Bat Plant! 

 7. Dancing Plants

total band kids. also called Semaphore Plants, bc they look like they’re trying to flag down a plane. nifty fuckers
