astr-logy:

So you’re sitting in bed reading a post about astrology and you think of that person who makes your heart flutter.

Astrology isn’t going to tell you that it will work or that it is meant to be. Astrology is not going to proclaim that there is no chance that you two will be together. 

Yes, there are aspects of the chart that predict actions and thoughts regarding love. Some placements might make interacting easier. But astrology is a microcosm to the overwhelming power of love. 

This is my guide, more or less realistically, to astrology and whomever you’re comparing intimately/romantically. 

The Sun Sign: This is the window of who you are, the glass in which every beam of light must filter through. The sun sign shows basic characteristics, basic admiration, basic inclinations. Find adjectives associated with each sign and each house- then compare that to the nature of who said person is.

The Moon Sign: This is the baggage so to speak. This is the inner child behaviors, the natural reactions the hidden qualities that people recluse to when they’re comfortable. People like to be comfortable. Look into the qualities of whatever sign/house pairing this person’s Moon Sign is in. Embrace them, admire them, allow the vices of the placement to reveal. 

The Mercury Sign: Communication is everything. Body language, language verbally, texting, long-distances. Understand how someone is going to take their sun and moon and all other placements and communicate it to you.

The Venus Sign: This is a shallow sensuality of beauty, a nature of craving, of idealizing. Venus could be paired with physical appearances, and the quirks a person believes they want. Venus is attractive, Venus is the type of date someone wants, the intimacy of sex, the nature of longing. Venus shows what they want to possess. 
People will probably play up the planet/house placement of their Venus sign, believing that is what they crave in another person.

The Mars Sign: Mars is more than sex and anger. Mars is action. Mars and the sun are tightly paired in how people perform. Look into Mars for how emotions might be released, how a person perceives their duties. And yes, the raw sex someone is attracted to performing. Use adjectives. 

Chiron: This asteroid or planeteoid is associated with troubles not relating to karma. Not everything is fair and Chiron can be a burden. Research the placement- how do they suffer? What mental/emotional burdens are scratching at their mind? It pays to know, understand, and comfort a potential lover. 

Juno: Juno is about long-term relationships. People change, obviously, around other people, and as they become comfortable. What do they want from you a year from now? It probably isn’t exactly the same as the perfect Venus image they drew up in their head. Juno is deeper, and has to be acknowledged. 

1st House (Rising): How this person appears is not necessarily who they are. Don’t romanticize someone you don’t know. However, the rising sign is often how someone wants to  be portrayed, and the positive qualities of said sign are generally favored! Match this with the synnastry of the 7th House (Descendant).

4th House: How has family come to be recognized? What was this person’s role as a child? 

5th House: How is creativity expressed? How are children related to this person? What will be expected of family?

7th House: What is this person drawn to, almost inevitably, in a partner? The negative aspects of this sign often play a role in first relationships. 

10th House (Midheaven): What is this person trying to learn to be? How are they continuously growing and balancing their being? What qualities do they lack, or believe they lack? How might they overcompensate with negative traits of this sign? 


Always take into account how different signs and houses interact. An opposition can make a world of difference,

*****Also, do not undervalue talking. Your interpretation might be flat-out wrong. This is a loose guide, not to be used to replace communication. If you like someone, approach them. The worst they can say is “no.”

surviveuntildawn:

Hello everyone! So as a lot of you may know, movies aimed towards lesbians or showing a f/f relationship are almost always doomed to end on a dramatic and/or sad note. Fortunately, I was brave enough to go through a huge amount of these movies to select the ones that do not entirely suck. Yes that’s right, this will be a masterpost of lesbian themed movies WITH A HAPPY OR HOPEFUL ENDING!

Here is this amazing list:

- Imagine Me and You (2005) [Stream] [Torrent]

- Carol (2015) [Stream] [Torrent]

- Bound (1996) [Stream] [Torrent]

- Saving Face (2004) [Stream] [Torrent] + Netflix

- But I’m A Cheerleader (1999)  [Stream] [Torrent] + Netflix

- I Can’t Think Straight (2008) [Stream] [Torrent

- All About E (2015) [Stream] [Torrent]

- Life Partners (2014) [Stream] [Torrent] + Netflix

N.B. Life Partners isn’t a movie about a f/f couple, but the main character is gay. If you can’t wait for Almost Adults, watch Life Partners!

========================================================

So here it finally is! BUT, the list isn’t complete. I still have a couple to watch, and some links to find, so please tell me if you have any more movies you’d like to add. If any of the links are broken, send me a message and I will try to fix it. ENJOY YOUR HAPPY LESBIAN MOVIES! And as our dear Ellen Page once said…

Not sure how well these would score on a diversity test but honestly there needs to be more f/f happiness in all our lives.

I’ve only seen like 2 of these, so I can’t vouch for how transphobic they are/aren’t, but I’ll reblog this in case someone wants stuff to check out.

to artists that don’t know what to do w leftover paint

foervraengd:

missleepify:

foervraengd:

Artists that work with guache, acrylics, oils etc MUST know how to properly take care of leftover paint in a safe way. Paint is not something you can just throw all in one trash can or pour down the drain, paint contains a lot of different chemicals that is not good for the environment and yourself.

Thinners etc:

Thinners like terpentine are very bad for you to breathe in. You should always keep the lid on when you’re not using it. Being constantly exposed to the fumes can damage your brain and lungs very badly and long term exposure can increase the risk of lung cancer.

Terpentine/thinners are still very reusable so don’t get rid off that old dirty stuff after cleaning your brushes. If you let it sit for a couple of days in a container most of the paint will separate and collect at the bottom. Once that’s done you can pour the thinner to another container and reuse it again.

Oil based paint:

If you’re not gonna save the remaining oil paint from your brushes and palette, wipe it off with paper towel/tissue, soak the paper in water and then put it in a metal trash can that are air-tight.

Oil based paint should be collected in a separate container, dispose it as “hazardous waste”.

This is extra important if you mix your oil paints with linseed oil - linseed oil can self-combust if applied on crumpled up paper/towels/sponges etc.

Latex based paint:

Latex based are paints such as guache and acrylic paint etc, these leftovers belongs in the trash. Do not pour acrylics down the drain. Acrylic paint contains vinyl which is a form of plastic, and plastic is not something we want in the groundwater.

Very small and very diluted amounts are sorta ok, but if it’s opaque it goes in the trash can.

Acrylic paint don’t dissolve once it dries up. If you pour it down the drain it will dry up in the pipes and build up with time, and you don’t wanna spend your money getting those pipes cleaned/replaced.

If anyone has any more good info to add about this, please do!

For oil paints (but might work for other paints too): After you’ve wiped your brushes, pour some soap/brush cleaner (whatever you use to wash your brushes that doesn’t tear them) in the corner of the sink (or in a separate container) and rub them off there. You can add a little water if you need, but make sure nothing goes down the drain! Look at all the extra paint-goo that came off your brush after using soap! That would have gone down your drain if you had just washed them under water. Grab another paper towel and wipe the sink and the brushes off a second time, and then throw the paper in the airtight container. Repeat if your brushes are still very full of paint, and then you can rinse them under water with some more soap if needs be.

It might seem a lot of work but it really isn’t once you get the routine: you can see exactly when paint stops coming off your brushes (which you don’t while washing under running water). You also don’t have to wash your brush every time you’ve quit working, if you wrap them tightly in plastic between uses and don’t leave them for long. 

This is really good advice!

Another good tip about paintbrushes for oil painting:

If you plan to use the brushes again the next day, keep the brushes still caked in oil paint and put them in water overnight; this will keep the bristles soft and not end up stiff. And since water and oil don’t mix, the water will work as an isolator - preventing the oil to start drying up.

If your brushes have already turned stiff from half-dried up oil paint, you can get their softness back by putting them in a container of raw linseed oil (do NOT use cooked/boiled linseed oil for your paintings, that stuff takes longer to dry and is for outdoor use).

Oil paint contains linseed oil as it’s binding solution, so you can use raw linseed oil to “dilute” opaque paint to create a so called “glaze”.

Why I hate your sign. *This is a goddamn joke people*

fuckyouandyoursign:

Aries: Are you done yet? Shhh….shh shut the fuck up. No one cares about what you’re so awkwardly passionate about and its killing my vibe. Just go get fucked already ok?

Taurus: Oh look. You’re doing that thing, the same thing you’ve been doing for the past half century. Cool. It’s like your insides are made of sad old people. WTF.

Gemini: This sign hates to be hated on but you fucks make it so easy cause all you do is cry about how much fun you want to have while simultaneously wanting to be taken seriously… You’re a child. Get over yourself.

Cancer: You’re basically a fucking egg. Oh look at that smooth and hard little shell, so tough! No. Not really, cause that shit is thin and holy fucking shit your insides are a god forsaken mess. Just..just leave.

Leo: If I talk about this sign for too long (which you’d love) my eyes might never roll back into place. Is anything your fault? Plot twist all of it is. Oh don’t hide now, I thought you liked the spotlight???!?

Virgo: Go dust your own damn house and get your nose out of everyone else’s shit. You’re a mess just like the rest of us but all of your problems start when you think you’re good at helping. So basically when you wake up, go back to sleep.

Libra: Everything is fine and dandy so long as everything is your way. Scales my ass you selfish moron. People change and flowers die, nothing is pretty forever and you’re a fucking brat for not getting with it.

Scorpio: Oh for fucks sake you cannot demand to know everything about someone without at least expecting them to want something in return. That’s how humans work, you’d know that if you were one but you’re just a fucking leech.

Sagittarius: You know what you remind me of? A fly. Speeding off in a different direction every five seconds. You’re not an adventurer, you’re a coward. Either running from a problem you caused or running from the fear of causing one. Good job ass wipe.

Capricorn: You literally symbolize death in Tarot which makes sense cause you kill everything you touch. Romance, happiness, you name it, you fucking ruin it. All in the name of being “productive”. Maybe if you let someone help you everything you do wouldn’t suck. You’d probably end up killing them too though so best not.

Aquarius: Uuuuggghhh what is your endgame anyway? What’s your fucking point aside from pissing people off with your impossible standards. If you’re so fucking great then do it your goddamn self instead of leaving it up to someone else just so you can yell at them. You’re a dickbag.

Pisces: WAKE UP YOU FLAKY SALTINE CRACKER. Do you even own a cell phone or were you too busy imagining what it’d be like to hang out to actually hang out. You’re so damn boring. No wonder you nap all the time, if I had you in my head I’d get some fucking sleep too.
