Can’t stop, won’t stop: Protesters in Ferguson rally again, seeking justice for Mike Brown. More than a month and a half after his death, his killer, Darren Wilson, is still a free man. (Pt 2)
Because it wouldn’t be a protest in Ferguson without fuckery from the police. A driver plowed his car through protesters, grazing several and running over a young boys foot. Beyond taking several hours to transport the boy to the hospital, they took even longer to arrest the motorist. Who did they not wait long to arrest? Two of the protesters who had been documenting the altercation for the world to see. If you’re not angry, you’re not paying attention. #staywoke #farfromover #nojusticenopeace

CHARACTER DEVELOPEMENT
And you know the best thing about this movie is they could have made Felix be the nice guy, be the understanding guy, the only guy who’s kind to Ralph, but they make him just as prejudiced as the other game characters. He wasn’t mean to Ralph per say, but he wasn’t nice either, and definitely didn’t want to get involved with the trouble that followed Ralph around.
It’s only after Felix gets treated badly himself that he starts looking at how Ralph is treated by others, how Ralph is treated by him and changes his attitude.
Because that’s the thing, you don’t have to be the bad guy to be prejudiced. Sometimes you can be the nice guy who doesn’t do anything for or against, and sometimes that’s just as bad.
This movie. Ugh.

I feel so slow that I just realized that the Kirindave with Antlers fanart designs are most likely because the ‘Kirin’. If that’s not what inspired them then rock on with your awesome coincidences, guys!
It is funny people predicted it. But I suspect that part of the reason is the same reason we put horns and chops on the design in the first place: cartoon characters need strong profiles to be distinguishable.
Most artists do this with hairstyles. I sort of hate that because I have inherited bad hair genetics and ultimately really dislike how men and women without hair are generally judged to be weak, defective, ill and/or unstable of they don’t have hair. Its just another body shaming trope.
But that doesn’t change the fact that cartoon characters need strong differentiation in profile and palette. So we worked out a few key features you see.
One is the eyes. They don’t look straight forward, but rather furtively look off to the side. This is the very first thing we did to help my avatar be more distinct.
Two is always wearing a hood, but leaving my chops in. Part joke, part serious, this helps add some definition and profile to the character. Its also pretty rare to see.
Three is the horns, which are a recent development we’re adding to help further define the character’s look. The addition of more eyes (canonically kd has 7, as the shell he inhabits degrades further you will see more) is probably less significant. We’ll have to see how these work out. The hats mod definitely helps out here.
Lord give me strength.

Sending a big “FU” to the corporate side of the fashion industry.
As an increasingly successful fashion blogger, I have been targeted by several brands, large & small, one of which is quite a large corporation.
Why?
Because I am undermining a very important part of their money making system.Today, the fashion industry is split in half.
You have Women’s fashion & Men’s fashion.
You will find designers here and there who produce androgynous designs but for the most part, the industry (brands & corporate companies) want designers who either design Men’s wear or Women’s wear, and follow a very gendered structure. Everything from the tailoring to the materials has to be specific to the binary boy/girl gender system.
This is why you can’t find feminine style’s of clothing tailored for the average males body type in any department store, thus creating a “mens” & “women’s” division.Every time I modify the clothing I buy in department stores to fit my body type and then model it for people to see, not only am I inspiring people to step out of the box with their fashion choices, but I am merging two markets into one.
Why is this bad for corporations?
MONEY
More markets equal more advertising and marketing opportunities which ultimately leads to more sales and more profit.When I successfully inspire people to be less mindful about if they look like a girl or a boy, ultimately I am inspiring them to go against the gendered market system that brands and clothing companies make so much money off of.
I have received several hateful emails, discouraging my efforts as a fashion blogger. I was even asked by a large corporate clothing company to STOP buying their clothing and modifying it to fit my body type. They stated that by doing so, and sharing it with my audience that I was creating the illusion that gender did not exist, and that I am leading a bad example for society. …
A GENDERED SOCIETY CREATES A HUGE PROBLEM.
IT DIVIDES PEOPLE.
IT SEPERATES.
IT CONTROLS.
IT DISOLVES ANY & ALL ORIGINALITY.FUCK YOU, to any clothing brand, company & corporation who’s got a problem with who I am, what I believe in & how I express myself.
-Elliott Alexzander
This is just so important! Gendered clothing is such bullshit and I want more people to realize!!!
