'Ello. :D
You may refer to me as Snow, as I've become used to that being my main internet alias (for now anyway). I do also go by other ones, like Little (from way back when I was littledove1001 on Neopets) and Snowy (before I decided to drop the y for the most part to avoid confusion between me and a character of the same name). Blizzy, Crescent, and Jewel are also nickname options~
Anyway, I'm just a chick that likes to draw, write, read, watch stuff, and play video games. I also have an undying love for cats, even grumpy ones. I do like being on Tumblr, but I tend to drift away from it sometimes so don't be alarmed if you don't see an update from me for a while.
I tend to come and go with no formal announcement, so I usually just spam with reblogs as a way to say that I'm back for the moment.
Even for the times that I don't intend to be active on here with likes and reblogs, I keep certain blogs bookmarked so that I can check up on them occasionally.~
Anyway, feel free to drop something in my ask box if you want.
[[Ethereal is my favorite, but this skin in general is just my favorite ever.]]
These are really adorable~ I like the Ethereal one in particular (it’s so pretty and it’s my favorite form for this skin) <3 The music for it is so chill and relaxing too c:
If you’re lesbian and you fall for a guy FINE If you’re gay and you fall for a woman FINE If you’re bisexual and you have a preference for girls FINE If you’re bisexual and you have a preference for guys FINE If you’re pansexual and have a preference FINE What’s not fine is telling someone they can’t love another person because it doesn’t fit into the confinements of a label.

If you’re asexual and get attracted to someone somehow.
Here’s a code for Diancie: A4AZ-G8NR-S2G2-TMUJ (First come, first served xD I don’t care who this goes to, as long as someone can get some use out of it; I used one already, so this spare isn’t of any use to me- it expires in a few hours, so go go go!)
When Brazilian graphic designer Carol Rossetti began posting colorful illustrations of women and their stories to Facebook, she had no idea how popular they would become.
Thousands of shares throughout the world later, the appeal of Rosetti’s work is clear. Much like the street art phenomenon Stop Telling Women To Smile, Rossetti’s empowering images are the kind you want to post on every street corner, as both a reminder and affirmation of women’s bodily autonomy.
"It has always bothered me, the world’s attempts to control women’s bodies, behavior and identities,” Rossetti told Mic via email. “It’s a kind of oppression so deeply entangled in our culture that most people don’t even see it’s there, and how cruel it can be.”
Rossetti’s illustrations touch upon an impressive range of intersectional topics, including LGBTQ identity, body image, ageism, racism, sexism and ableism. Some characters are based on the experiences of friends or her own life, while others draw inspiration from the stories many women have shared across the Internet.
“I see those situations I portray every day,” she wrote. “I lived some of them myself.”
Despite quickly garnering thousands of enthusiastic comments and shares on Facebook, the project started as something personal — so personal, in fact, that Rossetti is still figuring out what to call it. For now, the images reside in albums simply titled “WOMEN in english!“ or ”Mujeres en español!“ which is fitting: Rossetti’s illustrations encompass a vast set of experiences that together create a powerful picture of both women’s identity and oppression.
One of the most interesting aspects of the project is the way it has struck such a global chord. Rossetti originally wrote the text of the illustrations in Portuguese, and then worked with an Australian woman to translate them to English. A group of Israeli feminists also took it upon themselves to create versions of the illustrations in Hebrew. Now, more people have reached out to Rossetti through Facebook and offered to translate her work into even more languages. Next on the docket? Spanish, Russian, German and Lithuanian.
It’s an inspiring show of global solidarity, but the message of Rossetti’s art is clear in any language. Above all, her images celebrate being true to oneself, respecting others and questioning what society tells us is acceptable or beautiful.
"I can’t change the world by myself,” Rossetti said. “But I’d love to know that my work made people review their privileges and be more open to understanding and respecting one another.””
