― Suu
Ok real talk. How the fuck does her fucking stripper overalls thing stay where it is. Did she. Fucking glue it to her tiddies. Look at it. It is literally defying gravity to cling to the undersides of her boobs. She is a farmwife who performs manual labor all day why couldn’t the writers give her a real fucking shirt.
My personal “fuck you, Filoni” headcanon is that Suu only throws that mess on when there are strangers visiting, to take advantage of how Twi’leks are hypersexualized by pretty much everyone in the galaxy. If she got her stripper-alls on and her titties out, the potential-threats won’t notice that she can shoot a deathstick out of their mouth at 15 meters or suplex them into the ground until it’s already happened.
At all other times she wears farming- and weather-appropriate clothes.
This was the most brutal shit that I have ever seen on a commercial. And it came out of nowhere.
I wasn’t prepared at all
Celebrating Marvel TV Actresses: [1/50] Simone Missick
‘Stop trying to present this perfect picture of ourselves to one another. And it’s not just a physical presentation. It’s emotional and spiritual. As women, we always try to put on a good face, and don’t feel like we have space to be honest about how we’re feeling, if we’re depressed, or struggling, or feeling weak or insecure, or our less attractive selves. But that honesty helps other women feel like they’re normal.’
Donate if you can, and even if you can’t, spend some time this November educating yourself about the history of the very-much-still-alive tribe that sat down with the pilgrims, the continued history of colonization in America, and about the tribe/s whose land you are occupying.
It’s out!
I illustrated for Disney’s MULAN book “Mulan’s Lunar New Year”, (you can see the book here!) a children’s book about little Mulan spending Lunar New Year with her family.
It’s my first book and I want to share some illustrations 😀 [*will also have this book at my table at CTNx 2018 this year on display!]
Looking back, there are lots that I want to improve on the crafting of my drawings for this book, but overall… I’m really glad I get to illustrate and to remember the joy and excitement I had celebrating Lunar New Years and lighting fireworks with my parents as a kid.
It was pretty magical.
