I’m So Sick Of Running As Fast As I Can Wondering If I’d Get There Quicker If I Was A Man And I’m

“follow me home if you dare too…perilous night, their voices calling, a flicker of light, before the dawning… but at least we have beautiful ghosts”

I put the snippets of Beautiful Ghosts together and I can already tell it’s the song of the century

She Broke Records With ‘Twilight.’ Then Hollywood Called Her ‘Difficult.’

Ten years ago, director Catherine Hardwicke grossed more than any woman ever had at the box office. She was thanked with a cupcake—and sexist Hollywood labels that hurt her career.

On the 10 year anniversary of Twilight, director Catherine Hardwicke reflects back on her hit film. With an opening weekend of just over $69 million, the film went on to earn $192 million in the U.S. alone, at the time a record breaking sum for a film directed by a woman. 

Hardwicke’s description of Summit’s reaction to the financial success of the film:

When I went in I saw that there were massive bouquets and balloons and bottles of wine, and crazy gifts sent to them by all the distributors around the world or whoever, all their friends. So I actually had it in my mind, wow, this is a pretty unprecedented success. I had heard these rumors that when a director does something like this they give them a car, they give them a two-picture deal or something like that. They give them an office and ask them what they want to do after this.

And then I got a mini cupcake that day. I was like oh, OK, cool—coming in here, I’m sort of working for free, doing this online stuff, and that was what I was offered: a mini cupcake.

Welcome to Australia...

Where an already endangered species is on the brink of functional extinction...

Oh, and 500 million animals unique to this country have already lost their lives, upon homes that have been destoryed and lives lost of people as well...

I mean... we're only living in a literal inferno...

415 fires. Fuck are we dying...

Oh yeah and people are just fleeing to the damn ocean, you know?

Do you want to know what Hell on Earth looks like..?

Because there it is in all it's unfiltered, firey rage...

There it is... my home from space...

This is only the beginning. Our country has not only entered a new decade, it seems a new dawning era as well, because this flaming apocalypse doesn't show any sign of stopping any time soon.

And you know what saddens me? I've never seen Australian tragedies trending here on this website. I mean it's been going on for months and only now does it seem to really be getting recognized, even if it is only at #9.

And I'm going to be honest with you here - the internet, and media in general is so American centric, this website being no exception. You'd think that an entire continent being on fire for several months with devastating consequences would have more recognition, but no, it really doesn't. The most notes I've ever seen on a post about the Australian fires is at least a few thousand, and that's about it.

So just... please. If you can, with this post or any other post in regards to the fires going on down here, reblog. Because the only thing that should be spreading like wildfire, is a post about a burning country...

Ya se viene el dia de muertos y reforma se pone guapo 😍🖤💀

Never let them forget this. No matter what happens in the next few years, no matter how many dems we vote into office, no matter how much better things seem to get, never let them forget how they simply let Trump supporters white terrorists storm the capitol. Never let them forget how they killed and gassed and arrested black people peacefully fighting for their basic right to live but held their hands up when the alt right attempted a coup just a few months later. Never.

The police let them storm the capital.

Putin: squeaking from his bunker
