In the 101 top-grossing family films…from 1990 to 2004, of the over 4,000 characters in these films, 75% overall were male, 83% of characters in crowds were male, 83% of narrators were male, and 72% of speaking were male. When the American Psychological Association commented on this research, they said, ‘This gross under-representation of women or girls in films with family-friendly content reflects a missed opportunity to present a broad spectrum of girls and women in roles that are non-sexualised.’

Ed Miliband doesn’t give a damn about what he looks like, how he dresses. He came into politics to change society.

Xena series 3, episode: bitter suites

There are musical numbers. And chorus lines.
And it’s terrible, actually awful, just dreadful.

BUT AMAZING AND SPECTACULAR.

idk even know what to make of this motherfucking information.

part of me is utterly gleeful.

the other part is filled with the amused sort of disdain that I regard for trolls.

my boyfriend came back from Athens and got me this. You can’t see it very well but it’s loads of little strings of purple and black leather bound together and with occasional silver beads on them.

I love it. And it kind of feels like I’m Xena. Y’know. Cause of the leather. And the cuff-y shape to it. Idk. I feel like if she was around now she might wear something LIKE this.

Oh shut up. I know I’m rambling. I love it.

Okay everyone, just shut up and let me tell you about how fucking much I love Daft Punk and that I recognise the new album is not epic and flawless, but a work that still inspires awe in me and makes me go ‘OHHHHHHH’ at moments in songs, the same way I do to Abbey Road by the Beatles (WHICH IS NO EASY FEAT!). OKAY? Okay.

The one thing that Xena taught me…

…is that all of history happened at one and Xena was involved.

Reason #391 why I love Xena

Season 3, epsiode 4, Xena joins forces with Boadicea to fight against Caesar.

There’s this amazing fucking scene where it’s like girl power city, and these women are all just totally ruining these men of Caesar’s and the chanty female power fight vocals are going in the background, and I’m thinking to myself: I CAN DO ANYTHING.

Totes emosh.
