These are screenshots from the website I’m working on creating. Essentially it’ll be a place where people can find black hair stylist in their area and a directory of online black hair resources (youtube channels, natural hair recipes, tutorials, online stores, etc) in one place that members can add to 

I have a quick 9 question online survey I need at least 40 people to respond to (right now I am 4) so that I can improve the site before it goes live.

Pleaseeeee do the survey and/or reblog this! 

I see this is still making the rounds but i gotta say the site: is called BlackHairEverywhere.com and well…

Everyone has been talking about the Countess Olivia, so let’s swing over to her household and see what’s going on over there!

I love Sir Andrew. He’s a total idiot, but such an endearing one. Sir Toby, meanwhile, is a dick.

FUN FACT: Maria’s name is pronounced “mah-RYE-ah” and not “mah-REE-ah”. Fortunately, “Toby” and “Andrew” are pronounced pretty much like you’d expect them to be.

I feel like people tend to imagine achilles as being big and hairy and muscle-bound but I just want to remind y’all that he apparently spent quite a long time disguised as a girl and nobody could fucking tell?? including Odysseus, who had to trick him into revealing himself, but was apparently not smart enough to figure out which of the beautiful women in front of him was a man in a dress???

so like please consider: petite fine-boned achilles. achilles with killer cheekbones and big dark eyes w long eyelashes. ppl meeting achilles and being all “you’re the one who’s supposed to be a scary warrior?” and then later he he picks up trojans twice his size and flings them across the battlefield and they’re like ‘oh’. achilles being significantly shorter than hector and needing to tilt his head back to yell at him. patroclus being able to sling achilles over his shoulder. patroclus giving achilles piggyback rides. achilles needing patroclus to reach stuff down for him sometimes. achilles being the little spoon. tiny pretty achilles okay

THIS MAKES THE SONG OF ACHILLES SO DIFFERENT IN MY HEAD

Conservative Rabbis pass resolution supporting trans rights

The Rabbinical Assembly, made up of 1,700 rabbis, stated that all those who identify as transgender will be identified with the name, gender and pronoun of their choosing, and those will be used when they are called to recite the Torah and the denomination will implement full recognition and accommodation for transgender people within the religious institution. Three Christian denominations have also spoken out in support of trans rights.
