Sharing post! / Pimping post! Whatever you wanna call it...
Dude. I do spam my f-list these days. o.O After this post though, I'll work on getting caught up on everyone. :-) Promise! :-D
Since this be a sharing post, let's start that, right? :-) I do have a tendency to collect links and stuff that I want to share with my f-list. ;-)
Let's start with the serious stuff, and then work our self's up to the fun stuff...
I've been a Disney-fan since I was a kid. I still ADORE Disney-movies/cartoons/comics what have you. It's a thing. I even got Scrooge McDuck tattooed on my shoulder! So reading this made me really really sad. :-/ Can be triggery to read, obviously, even if there are no great details about the rape itself.
It happened to me: I was raped at Disney World and nobody cared
Urgh. :-/ That is freaking horrible.
This is... more interesting and slightly horrible because of all the lies, but yeah... Read it. Especially if you consider yourself a pro-life'er.... Just saying.
How I lost faith in the "Pro-Life" movement
Very, very interesting...
Something else is very very interesting. And very very true. Where's all the bisexuals in literature and movies? There's plenty gays and lesbians and, of course, heterosexuals. But us bisexuals, eh? Yes. I am bisexual. I just happened to fall in love with a man. Sue me. :-P Writer Talya Andor AKA fyredancer wrote about it very well in her authorblogg right here:
Erasing the bisexuals
And that is just about the literature! Also in Real Life it is not always easy to find any bisexuals, are there? And Los Angeles Times had a very interesting article about that! I do suggest you all read it.
Why bisexuals stay in the closet
Interesting, right? And probably painfully true...
Talking about gay/lesbian vs hetero people / life and how the world looks today... I found this short very VERY interesting, even if it made me cry... since it is so sad. But it also got me thinking. And I love movies / clips / novels / books / fanfiction that gets me to think. And this one did. In the midst of the heartbreaking sadness it really got me thinking.
Imagine a world... Where ‘gay’ was ‘straight’ - and ‘straight’ was ‘gay’...
I highly suggest EVERYONE to watch this short called Love is all you need?.
The website is right here: Love is all you need? The Movie.Com. Apparently there are plans for a full length movie as well. If they can get money and support for it. I sincerely hope that will happen. It would be awesome.
Alright, so move over to fandoms and the like instead. But still stay on the serious side.
When I started seeing this, I found it slightly ironic since much of the younger parts of fandom prefer Tumblr over Livejournal/Dreamwidth/or any incarnation of the like since it is more fandom-friendly... Well... Apparently anything NSFW will not be searchable on Tumblr anymore. HA HA HA HA! Hey, I'd say 90% of fandom stuff is NSFW. Sadly though, it appears that not only stuff that really ARE NSFW will be flaggad as NSFW, but also educatial stuff and artistic stuff as well... Which kinda makes me stop laughing, because that is just not cool. :-/
A repost (or whatever it is called) on thilia's Tumblr:
Tumblr Yahoo have been pretty quite about this...
The Daily Dot posted about it as well, including comments from Yahoo staff:
New NSFW content restrictions enrage Tumblr users
If you want to sign or just read a petition about it, you can do so right here at Change.Org:
Tumblr.com: Stop the ban on all adult blogs as well as some NSFW blogs.
Funny, isn't it? While also very sad and annoying to, of course. I never did enjoy Tumblr quite as much as I know many of my fandomfriends do... But I never wanted anything like this to happen. :-P
Another short that I found, was linked to, is this one. Simply called Zero. It is animated and absolutly gorgeous... if somewhat sad. I loved it though!
Gorgeous, wasn't it? :-)
And then the other day... I squeed so loud I almost woke Alexandra up! Sons of Anarchy season 6 is ON, folks! FUCK YES!!! So much awesome! :-D CHIBS!!!! JUICE!!!! JAX!!!! MA BOYS!!!! YAY!!!
I can not WAIT for September to roll around...
And now off I go to catch up on you all! :-D
