"Marry your best friend. I do not say that lightly. Really, truly find the strongest, happiest..."

Tue, 14 May 2013 14:53:49 -0600

“Marry your best friend. I do not say that lightly. Really, truly find the strongest, happiest friendship in the person you fall in love with. Someone who speaks highly of you. Someone you can laugh with. The kind of laughs that make your belly ache, and your nose snort. The embarrassing, earnest, healing kind of laughs. Wit is important. Life is too short not to love someone who lets you be a fool with them. Make sure they are somebody who lets you cry, too. Despair will come. Find someone that you want to be there with you through those times. Most importantly, marry the one that makes passion, love, and madness combine and course through you. A love that will never dilute - even when the waters get deep, and dark.”

#remember when sookie was played by a fat actress and there were literally no jokes about her weight on the show? #remember how she wasn’t defined by her weight? #remember how she got to date and get married and have kids and not be just the token funny fat friend of the main character? #remember when she ~got her life together and was happy before lorelai and that wasn’t seen as threatening?

NO NO NO! Please don’t post my icons in a photoset without credit (http://room-of-her-own.livejournal.com/11901.html)!

Those took hours of work (there’s like 130 of them in total) and seriously, putting them in a photoset just makes them look like shit!! Stop doing that!

Seriously?!

I never freaking post on here, but today two people have posted my work (edited it) and not given any credit for it (here:http://mary-mcdonnell.tumblr.com/post/42939360560 and here:http://therosearcana.tumblr.com/post/42941044046/series-that-changed-my-life) .

I’m not surprised (I’m not new to the rodeo), or even particularly angry, but seriously?! And posting icons? They LOOK LIKE SHIT! STOP THAT!

Aw, look, someone has taken my picture that I made and posted almost two years ago, cropped it and posted it as their own (and didn’t even crop it very well!). Precious. http://inhisbloodlikecheapwine.tumblr.com/post/4936890990/all-this-has-happened-before-and-all-this-will

Damn tumblr savior doesn’t want to work for me, so apologies, but I’ll be unfollowing a number of you until I’ve had the chance to catch up on Doctor Who (my dash is already way too spoilery and it’ll be almost a week until I can see the episode).Bye! But only for now. I’ll be back. I promise

Yew =/= You

Wed, 22 Aug 2012 15:37:26 -0600

What the ever-loving fuck is up with all the people on the Major Crimes Facebook page ending their posts with “Thank yew!”

It’s asinine, grating, and makes them sound like illiterate bumpkins. Is it some silly Closer fandom thing? Is it to make them sound more like their precious Brenda Leigh? Is it the sign of some sort of closed head trauma that I should be more understanding of? Enlighten me, people.

"I have been shutting the fuck up. Now it's your turn."

In this article on Jezebel today I found one of my all time favourite internet comments ever (presented without edits below).

Thank you, good sir for getting it. For truly getting it!

Also, the article itself is pretty great. Go read it.

I used to have a line. I’m from Philadelphia, land of Ben Franklin, so I’m full of little lines. “I’m a feminist in the oldest sense of the word, in that I have nothing in particular against women.”

It’s a funny line, but I’ve decided to retire it.

I’m having a soul-searching kind of morning, ladies. I’m realizing that, even though I’m a slightly-to-the-right-of Marx, Jezebel-reading, died in the wool rabble-rousing despiser of the patriarchy that I was born into, I have still underestimated what you all go through on a day-to-day basis. Not completely, mind you. I’ve long known what advantages I’ve had. I do not have to worry about my physical safety on a simple walk home, nor about garnering equal pay. I do not feel the pressure to “look the part” (because frankly I am the part). Men are not divided and conquered by the hiding-in-plain-sight forces of consumer culture as women have been from the start. Men do not have to worry about “reverse sexism” because, like it’s equally specious counterpart “reverse racism”, it doesn’t exist because true power only resides in the other party (though some men all over internet message boards this week are clinging to the idea). I’ve always been ready to admit that I’d never trade places with a woman - it’s simply too hard of a life for me. I’m weak. I’m able to be weak and still thrive, because I’m a man. That’s how the game is set up and I’ve taken advantage of it.

Yet, the past few months and especially the last week has taught me that I underestimated this- my every thought, question, conviction, and concern isn’t automatically subject to being undercut. When you consider how hard women have to fight to develop a certain amount of agency, to be looked at as worthy of being heard, before they can even get started on real work, it’s amazing that any of you are able to go beyond that and make a real difference in our crumbling culture and civilization.

So do me a favor - next time one of you is annoying me and I tell you to shut the fuck up, look me right back in the eyes and say “I have been shutting the fuck up. Now it’s your turn.” I swear to god I’ll listen. — T.S. Smelliot

Ben and Heather get married:

Just started a tumblr blog devoted to chronicling the next year leading to my wedding. Hopefully with all the funny stories that come with wedding planning. This may be very, very foolish.

This is my all-time favorite Mrs. Landingham scene. It’s from In Excelsis Deo, an amazing episode for which actor Richard Schiff (Toby Ziegler) and the writers won well-deserved Emmy Awards. RIP Kathryn Joosten.

Damn you, Mrs. Landingham. You’re breaking my heart here.

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn’t it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life…You give them a piece of you. They didn’t ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn’t your own anymore.”

That ridiculous moment when this woman is SIXTY YEARS OLD. What even.

#well in about three hours she will be but i’ll be asleep by then #in other news that means she is officially 3x my age #so i’ll spend tonight/tomorrow feeling especially perverted #SIXTY THOUGH #what #mary mcdonnell

I snark, but yeah. Pretty much this. ^^ (except officially 2x my age)

Well, I officially feel inferior. And a little turned on. It’s a confusing night for me.
