Like most women, I currently live in a society where violence, harassment and scary shit can break out at any moment, just because I told some random asshole “no” without bothering to be nice about it. Doing that is so dangerous that most women don’t dare; after a few scary incidents, they learn to make up excuses, to smile, to be sweet and welcoming, to act as if every single random asshole on the street is a precious new friend that they would just LOVE to stand outside of the Chipotle and chat with FOR HOURS, if only cruel fate had not intervened. That’s what it’s actually like, being a woman: Playing nice with every random asshole, because this random asshole might be the one who hurts you. And then, if he hurts you anyway, they’ll tell you that you led him on.

So very sad to hear of the death of Eiko Ishioka. She was one of my favorite designers and art directors. Her work with Tarsem Singh produced images that are seared into my brain forever for their stunning beauty.

Ishioka created some of the most stunning costumes I’ve ever seen.  She will be sorely missed.

a loss to the craft indeed

Atari Teenage Riot - “Revolution Action” (1999)

Directed by Andrea Giaccobe

i will never forget the first time i saw this, the year it came out, when i was twelve, and it scared the shit out of me (about as much as the video for “Come To Daddy” did).

<3 ATR was part of my highschool soundtrack. also still on my itunes library

Republicans like using kids and babies (unborn or otherwise) to support their arguments…like alot!….like they have some fixation on kids and babies…..fucking weird man.

FUCK! I hope the insurance I pay extra for covers this!
and i&#8217;m usually so good with electronics

EDIT: looks like I&#8217;ll be paying for half a phone to replace it&#8230;kool $200 deductible on a $400 device seems a bit steep!

today sucked. I feel inhuman and emotional. I feel alien and unpretty, grotesque .
I&#8217;m not a bad person, but sometimes I can be. sometimes things come out of me, ugly things that can&#8217;t be unsaid, i&#8217;m human I guess thats a flaw.
I&#8217;m nervous for my trip mostly because I should have planned it better. It was so last minute for a trip to Europe it feels somehow wrong. I&#8217;m also worried about money, because i probably wont get work steadily until march. I feel like a failure, for not being able to express myself better in any language. Mainly i feel alone right now. I hope to god it&#8217;s just the hormones.
