an orchid greenhouse of peridot and overcast skies……?

A laundry room of garnet and high temperatures?

I thought this was going to be really bad, but ‘A Work of Pearl Night’ isn’t half bad. 

(yes, ‘night’ is a weather condition, fite me. Also, it sounds better than ‘the work of pearl partly cloudy’)

A Park of Topaz Mist. Well, that’s not too bad.

This is the moment we met. He was trying so hard to stay seated even though he desperately wanted to get out. I knew right away that he was coming home with me, so I took this video to always remember our first hello.

Ah. That’s where the beginning of the end begun, kids.

Anne, please stop doing that.

Love your editors kids.

They can’t be “mentors and guardians” if they can’t do their jobs - that’s WHY they’re literally paid for constructive critism.

Lmao no decent book has ever been produced this way. Jesus

That explains everything.

This seemed oddly written, and it’s easy to photoshop a facebook post, so I went to see if I could find the source. 

It’s real. 

So Anne Rice actually cast Protection from Editors.

Did you know that after they switched to blind auditions, major symphony orchestras hired women between 30% to 55% more? Before bringing in “blind auditions” with a screen to conceal the the candidate, women in the top 5 major orchestras made up less than 5% of the musicians performing.

so I believe it was actually more complicated than that, in interesting ways. Because at first, when they did blind auditions, they were STILL hiring more men.

…Then they put down a carpet, so that high heels didn’t clack on the floor,  and BOOM women were suddenly getting hired.

The testers didn’t even know that’s what they were picking up on, which just goes to show how tiny of a cue it takes for misogyny to kick in.

The case of blind auditions for orchestras and how it dramatically changed the gender makeup of orchestras is a very illuminating example of gender bias, and an interesting possible way of countering it.

You can be sexist without knowing it. You can be racist without knowing it. This is not a moral failing; it is a moral imperative to remember that you are fallible, and take steps to limit the damage your squishy ape brain’s foibles can cause.

spikenards:

can you imagine being 26 years old and in marketing and you want to settle down with a rich stupid man who’s crazy about you and you FIND a divorcee who hasn’t talked to his ex in over a decade and has a very forgiving custody arrangement that would easily enable boarding school and is willing to MARRY you after a SIX TO EIGHT WEEK SUMMER ROMANCE with NO PRENUP and then his brat kid comes back from summer camp and it turns out his ESTRANGED OTHER TWIN DAUGHTER came back from camp and they hijack your entire life and put a lizard on you and then your hot old man ditches you for his hot mess of an ex WHO DESIGNED… THE CUSTOM WEDDING DRESS YOU HAD ALREADY PAID FOR. truly. a roller coaster summer…. all that scheming WASTED

Either this is the plot to a movie I haven’t seen or Tumblr user spikenards has some very specific fears

I want to say this is Parent Trap?
