Interviwer: Do you have a celebrity crush? Cory: I’ve worked with a lot of beautiful girls, but I’d have to say Amber Riley. She’s amazing.
I officially and shamelessly ship Cory/Amber. Coramber? Monnriley? Camber? Amby? It’s all good.

Mindy Kaling is my hero. It’s like…she says everything I think about stuff. While being female. And Westernised-desi. And I can indulge in that ‘what actor would play me...

The Big Sexy Problem with Superheroines and Their...
twelvebats:
Yesterday, two new comic books from the “New 52” relaunch of DC Comics provoked some online controversy: Catwoman and Red Hood and the Outlaws. They were controversial in particular because of the way they depicted women, notably with the aggressively fanfictiony on-panel sex between Batman and Catwoman, and Starfire’s transformation into a promiscuous tabula rasa who can’t even...

Anonymous asked: Hey glockgal! I've been following your art for years now and I lost track of you after I fell out of the Harry Potter fandom. Imagine my surprise when I stumbled across this tumblr and discovered you were drawing for another of my favorite fandoms--DC. And Arrow fanart at that! S'wonderful. You can really see how much you've grown as an artist, though your talent has been obvious...
pileofgoodthings asked: Thank you for the follow *___* !!!
ealperin asked: Hi there! I remember admiring your work back when I was younger. Your fan-related work was actually the first fanart I ever saw. Love your style!
oilan asked: Thanks for the follow! Please draw more Fred and George (now, I'm going to go and do the same)! :D
iamgwenslongroadhome asked: I should have sent this message forever ago. Just wanted to say you have been one of the fanartists that I really adored since my first baby-steps into fandom lurking and that I was absolutely shocked (in a good way) when you followed me back. The posts you make are either gorgeous, or really thought provoking. So yes. That is really it. Awkward belated Thank you for following me is awkward!
skyliting asked: so utterly thrilled to see your art again, and to see you lively blogging again! <3 <3 <3 -- Indigo

“Centuries later, what can Thanksgiving Day mean to Native peoples? Thank you for stealing our land? Thank you for wiping out our people? Thank you for placing a remnant of our once great numbers on rural ghettoes called ‘reservations?’ Thank you for abolishing most of the ancient traditions?

When I was trying to get a job in Harrow London, I knew the irony of applying for a job with my ‘white-sounding’ name on my faxed resume and my ‘white-sounding’ voice on the...

rosaflora:
US actor Danny Glover, who plans an epic next year on Haitian independence hero Toussaint-Louverture, said he slaved to raise funds for the movie because financiers complained there were no white heroes.
“Producers said ‘It’s a nice project, a great project… where are the white heroes?’” he told the press during a stay in Paris this month for a seminar on film.

And fuck everything Mercedes/Tots in this fandom
OVER IT.
What, you mean you didn’t enjoy the way Kurt gave her that condescending little speech about her channelling her FOREVER ALONE-ness into eating? You know, because she’s a fatty boombalatty? One who doesn’t have a man? And who won’t ever get one ie. have a life worth living?
That whole stupid tots...

crossedwires:
although, not that anyone cares, i’m not bothered by stereotypes of canadians the same way i am bothered by, say, stereotypes of asians. the former is amusing — and occasionally annoying — to me, while the latter is anywhere from aggravating to painful (or both!). plus, there’s something about being stereotyped as canadian that pleases my assimilated self. :/
