Salt Glitter 

Mix 1/4 cup of salt with a 1/2 teaspoon of food coloring in a small bowl until the salt is uniformly colored. Spread the mixture out in an even layer on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake in the oven for ten minutes. Allow your homemade glitter to cool before using it or storing it. And that’s it!:)

wait wait wait.

does that mean you can EAT it.

Who has two thumbs and intends to eat a rainbow steak in her future?

Why stop at steak? SPARKLE ALL FOOD!

HOLD THE FUCK UP

TRYING THIS FOREVER

OMG!

Save Auslan campaign website is now live!

extendedmetaphor:

omg, I am feeling way nervous about this situation. Anyway, here’s our website, feel free to put it out there!

“With the closure of this Diploma course, students can no longer attain the qualification necessary to progress to post-graduate interpreting and education courses, leaving us without interpreters or teachers of the Deaf and other relevant and integral professional positions in the language, education and disability sectors. Eventually this would lead to the closure of those post-graduate courses entirely, and cut off the number of professional interpreters, in a state which is already under strain with interpreter shortages. Overall the result would be a devastating setback in the rights of Deaf people and their access to unobstructed information, communication and services by means of reintroducing a severe cultural and language barrier.”

This is so important!

"

Violence broke out as several hundred people demonstrated in Tel Aviv on Wednesday night against the sizeable community of African immigrants in the city, police spokeswoman Luba Samri said.

The media reported that people shouted xenophobic slogans, such as “blacks out,” and chided the “bleeding heart leftists” who defend immigrants.

Over the years, an estimated 60,000 Africans, mostly from Sudan and Eritrea, have slipped over the border into Israel from Egypt.

Israel is building a wall along its border with Egypt and a detention center in the southern Negev desert.

"

Israel demonstration against African migrants turns violent (Al Arabiya)

I posted about Israel’s budding £58m “detention center” last month:

Of the 13,683 people who entered Israel illegally in 2010, 62% were Eritreans and 33% were Sudanese. According to UNHCR figures, 66% of Eritreans who arrive illegally in the UK are granted refugee status and 96% of those arriving in Canada.

In 2010, Israel recognised three refugees, rising to six last year. In total, just 170 people claiming asylum have been granted refugee status by the Jewish state since it signed the refugee convention in 1949.

I am horrified. Israel! What are you doing?

Israel trying to block itself off is really nothing new. the reason i think why people are so shocked about what’s going on with the treatment and backlash of African diasporic immigrants is because everyone gets too caught up on Israel rescuing Ethiopian Jewish communities via operation solomon in the late 1980s, and doesn’t actually pay attention to what happened after they were brought to Israel let alone their treatment of Ethiopian Jews in present day Israeli society.

sad as i am to read this, this is just what i need for my research project.

Sohoeva Leopard Print Binder

I can’t vouch for how well this works out since I haven’t tried it, but I’ve just found a leopard print binder on-line, which manages to combine two of my favorite things in one - leopard glam fabulousness and a flatter chest!

A Vision of Lesbian Sexuality

sqbr:

mmrr:

i might’ve been a leetle hyperbolic about the nightmares. :D

radtransfem did explain the quote in a way that’s easier for me to understand, but i must admit that i feel the same way as you about it. i mean, i like sex in theory! for other people. i enjoy reading it and writing it and looking at it. sex is my kink. but i’m also of the opinion that not all sex = yay funtiems and in that sense i’m attracted to sex negativity as an approach. still, the sort of theory that posits a utopian view of sex doesn’t take into account that not everyone’s idea of utopia is the same and not every feminist’s idea of utopian sex is the same.

meh, i’m not articulating this well. i don’t think i can. which is why i’m not a feminist theorist, obviously.

Good to hear :)

I have to say, even as someone who has Complex Issues with sex, and seeks out discussions of the flaws of sex positivity (of which there are many!), every single time I’ve read anything “sex negative” I have ended up feeling seriously gross, and often actively triggered. (If it doesn’t have that effect on you then that’s cool! I’m just saying there has to be more than those two options) I was poking at my reblog to find your reply and accidentally hit the original webpage, which I hadn’t read before. And holy crap:

And those who think the objectification, subordination and violation of women is acceptable just as long as you call it lesbian erotica or lesbian sado-masochism—they’re not lesbian feminists. And those who think that it’s acceptable in the privacy of their own bedrooms, where they enjoy it, where they get off on it—especially sexually—they’re not lesbian feminists either. As Mary Daly has said, they’re lesbians “from the waist down.”


Seriously? Seriously? I realise us bisexuals are traitors to the cause for sleeping with icky men anyway, but I still find this incredibly insulting, for myself and all my porn and kink loving lesbian feminist friends.

It doesn’t seem very feminist to me (lesbian or otherwise) to go around telling other women their sexuality doesn’t count because it’s too perverse and immoral.

Family sex tallllk! I think the quote above you has a point. The objectification, subordination and violation of women in the context of sex (or any context) can be not okay, unless of course said women and others involved consent to it (maybe consent is the key word here). Though this is probably not the crux of their opinion.

Like what’s wrong with people people wanting to be objectified/subordinated/violated? Ugh this is not just sex negativity but it seems like slut shaming too. What’s with feminists (among their other flaws) yucking other peoples yums. Not to mention defining what ‘feminism’ is and who is one.

Also insulted.

Struggling To Be Heard: What if Hufflepuff is actually the stoner house at Hogwarts

guitarminded:

effyeahchampomix:

I mean,

  • Hufflepuff. HUFF le PUFF.
  • They’re mostly considered nice and peaceful.
  • They live right by the kitchen.
  • Their head of house teaches herbology.
  • “Badger” is exactly the kind of animal a stoner would come up with.
  • Slytherins obviously do…
