A Tower of Roses and Thorns

Oh I know. I’m just terrifired of heading over there with nothing. I was hoping over time to get connecitons. it’s just with me on black hell next week…..I’m just a sad panda.

Yeah, I can understand.  Man, I can’t believe it’s been a year already! 

But yeah, I was thinking the same thing as well, but I realized my life was going nowhere working for my dad.  Fortunately, I have Rob’s income.  Money is tight, but we’re making it by.  I’ll keep you posted if I hear anything, though.

……….can I have a editing job…….still wish you luck.

Man, if you want one you gotta come out here.  I’m telling you, they’re here.  You might not be paid a whole at first but it’s still better than Target, right?

Btw, word of mouth and who you know is everything in this city.  I don’t have a lot of connections yet, but it’s very possible I could help you out in the future. 

First Thundercats now this shit. Well you can watch the TMNT toon on Nick or watch the Hub. if CN didn’t have Regular Show or Advventure Time I would almost be done with SN.

Same.  :/

I assume you woke up to Dreamworks Draogons instead?

Ayup.

I used to see this kind of stuff all the time at flea markets/Boot sales all the time in the UK. Honestly considering I read Tintin comics and watch Looney Tune Blu-Rays with some ammount of blackface I really have no right to comment.

Yeah, I just read the wikipedia page for “golliwog”, because I had honestly never heard of the term.  Apparently it was primarily a British thing.  It’s a tough situation.  On the one hand, I don’t think history should be ignored, but I also don’t like the thought of Etsy profiting from it.  And the people making and selling new dolls is just totally not cool.  

And I also don’t blame you for liking the Looney Tunes or Tin-Tin.  They are products of their time and that type of racism was not really a big deal.  I mean, even when I was watching Jem I noticed bits of racism at points.  Like that Aztec Enchantment episode or the whole “white savior” thing in their charity work.  They played up the stereotypes quite a bit.  But it is what it is.  We can’t change it now.  We can only learn from it.

If the 2nd Looney Tunes Blu-Ray Set, MLP: FIM Season 1, Transformers: Prime Season 2 and others were not coming out I would so buy Jem to add to my unhealthy blind love of my 80’s childhood.

At least it’s on netflix?  I know what you mean, though.  It’s fun to have the box sets. 

Also sorry if my Merman stuff is included in that. :P

Haha, dude you need to stop apologizing so much!  It wasn’t.  If it was, then I would have no right to ask you to like my cosplay page, since they’re basically like the same thing.  

But nah, it’s just mostly stuff that I either have absolutely no interest in (like Christian stuff or people trying to sell crap like candles) or I’m too far away to support (the roller derby team in NY). 

No Lori„„,my heart is broken. :P LOL

Haha.  Maybe if I some day find myself going to a DC themed pool party?  Mermaid tails are kind of hard to walk in at cons.  XD

Unless you get to Lori Lemaris, Giganta, Carrie Kelley (Frank Millar Robin) and the Wildstorm women. I refuse to believe you.. I’m kidding of course. :P

No joke, I could do Carrie Kelly right now!  With my own hair! 

Giganta miiiight be a problem.  XD

Got tagged for a meme-thing!

This tag is to get to know the person behind the blog better. As with any tagging game there are rules:

Rule 1 - Post the rules.

Rule 2 - Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post and then make 11 new ones.

Rule 3 - Tag 11 people and link them to your post.

Rule 4 - Let them know you’ve tagged them.

Well, just like Sonia, I also don’t know 11 people on Tumblr.  So yeah, I’m just gonna tag those of you I do know, if you want to participate.  :)

1. If someone invented a machine that would allow you to watch your dreams, but you could only do it with your close family and friends with you, would you watch?

2.  If you could be the main character of any book or movie who would you be and why?

3.  I think it’s safe to ask this question amongst these people (this is one Rob and I debate often): Ozymandias- Do you agree with his actions at the end of Watchmen?  Could you sacrifice millions to save billions? 

4.  If you could instantly obtain the knowledge to perform any skill, what would it be and why?

5.  Favorite fictional couple or duo?

6.  If you could choose one extinct or fictional beast to bring into existence, what would it be and why?

7.  Power, wisdom or courage?

8.  What’s your most irrational fear?  (I’m stealing a couple.)

9.  Is there a website that you think everyone should know about?

10.  As I walked down the hall, I noticed a dim light slowly growing brighter from the far right room.  I make my way closer to the open door, when…  Finish the story in at least one paragraph. 

11.  If you had to choose between keeping one and eliminating the other from existence, would you choose the contents and knowledge from books or the internet?
