Can I Change Your Mind?

I REALLY WANT TO SEE THIS MOVIE haha oh god it looks terrible!!!
A NYMPHOID BARBARIAN IN DINOSAUR HELL - YouTube

Although I'm kinda grossed out by how much they keep playing up "pre-pubescent," like it's sexy or something. ick.

I'm also super-interested in seeing this movie, even though I didn't think I would be!
Babies trailer - YouTube

It looks soooo beautiful! And really interesting. Plus the babies are so cute! XD haha, omg, the babies so seriously grinding those rocks or whatever at the beginning!<3 I'm really interested in seeing the Namibian and the Mongolian babies. Their homes look so amazing! It kinda reminds me of when I was little and I spent a big chunk of my childhood on my grandparents' farm, and back then they had a log cabin with no running water or anything. So we had to drink from a well and stuff. It's kinda weird to think about, but I might be one of the last people in my generation in the U.S. to use an outhouse!

Anyway, way to get off track, but um...this is so fucking cool! A hermit crab tucked up in a see-through shell! :) I wish I could just carry around everything I'd ever need with me on my back....

VAGINAS

I think I need to find a new place to put my tablet, because whenever I draw for a while it starts killing my shoulder. But I can't really think of anywhere else to put it. hmm. I've been drawing like a fiend lately! It feels really good after having a sort of block for a while. Thanks to everyone who's been so supportive of my art and my comic thus far! It means a lot, and has really helped me to keep going. <3

And now for something completely different. XD A friend of mine pointed out this weird etsy shop to me: vulva love 

I guess it's a feminist shop, in which everything is basically artistic representations of different female organs; breasts, uterus, and particularly vaginas. Now maybe I'm missing the point or something, but I don't really get how crap with vaginas on it is necessarily feminist. I can appreciate it artistically on a certain level I guess, but the feminist message is kinda lost on me. Isn't it more like it's propagating the idea that women are defined by our bodies and physical attributes? Does vagina = feminist?  Of course not. 

But I guess it's trying to say that part of feminism is revering women's own unique private parts...but I'm not really into that. Not that I find vaginas ugly or shameful or anything, just that I don't find them particularly pleasing to look at. It's the same with penises. If some guy went around wearing a "dick pride" necklace I'd think "wow, what a fruit loop!"

I do, however like the uterus plushies, hehe. But that has more to do with me liking internal organs and gross stuff in cute plushie form than feminism, heh. To each their own, I guess. I bet Georgia O'Keefe would love this store.
