“modern gaang,” art by viria13

From Love’s Labour’s Lost (2000) directed by, and starring (of course) Kenneth Branagh.  This production is silly and fun and I LOVE IT.  It is set in pre-WWII “Navarre,” and interspersed with the Shakespearean dialogue are song and dance numbers.  This clip is the penultimate scene, and the song is “They Can’t Take That Away From Me” by George & Ira Gershwin.  SO PRECIOUS.

Perhaps the best part of Love’s Labours Lost. Even if the setting is unconventional this is one of the greatest adaptations of Shakespeare that I have ever seen.

I hope Barack Obama gets asked to the Yule Ball by Ron Weasley before somebody else does. And not as a last resort.

So i actually finished and scanned that pic…

I thought I had made Iron Man’s armor too tight, but in the comics, they actually turned his suit into a skin-tight “second (metal) skin he stores in the hollow of his bones” kind of thing… So I don’t feel so bad. Both me and the comics suck :I

Oops my fangirl tendencies are showing

The best part was when I tried to explain this picture to my own mother. I think she kinda got it? Anyway, Happy Mother’s Day tumblr!

Look at this cuteness! Look at it!

My brain is melting from the cuteness!

I am so glad I’m not the only person who thought of this! =D

I wasn’t going to do a Mothers Day post, but… here we are.

Better late than never.

This is why I really wanted to see Avengers.

The girls in this photo are twins.  The Daily What captions:

When twin sisters Kian and Remee Hodgson were born, there was a one-in-a-million chance that one girl would inherit all-white genes and the other all-black genes from their mixed-race parents. Seven years later, they look remarkably alike despite their different skin colors.

“They don’t notice the color thing, not at all,” says mom Kylee. “They don’t see what everyone else sees.”

1. From a purely scientific standpoint, this is really really really cool.

2. This picture is totally adorable.

3. The gene for curly hair is dominant!!!  …but what kind of hair do these girls actually have?  Like, if you look under a microscope, how different do they look?  (What is the classification for mixed-race hair in general?  When I took a forensic science class way back, they told us that there were 4 types of hair [african, caucasian, asian, and aboriginal] and they showed us microscope slides of each.  Does a person of mixed heritage have combination hair or one of the 4 types?)

4. These girls are such a cool statement about how similar we all are, and how similar we can be, if we choose to see ourselves in such a way. 

5. ADORABLE.
