Meandering Minnow

Maybe Trapped But Mostly Troubled

So this is a reason why I hate it when people complain when youtubers do different stuff and are all like, “THIS IS NEW AND DIFFERENT.  I AM UNSUBSCRIBING.  I DIDN’T SUBSCRIBE FOR THIS.” Because these song videos have been a new and different thing, and I wouldn’t have gotten to experience this awesome thing that really spoke to me if Tessa had played it safe and just made the same old stuff. Also, I have already watched this at least 15 or 20 times.  Maybe 30.

Here are some awesome and empowering quotes from several very strong female celebrities. 

And Kristen Stewart.

No, you know what? Fuck you.

Let me tell you about Kristen Stewart.

Let’s talk about how she’s the centerpiece of one of the most inexplicably popular misogynistic pieces of film shit and somehow gets blamed for it sucking, despite the fact that, hey, the books were actually worse. For those who were lucky enough to escape reading the actual books, her apparent lack of emotion is 100% accurate to Bella’s character, because Bella is in fact not a character but a blank white wall for fourteen-year-old girls to project themselves onto. Robert Pattinson is not the only one in the cast who hates Twilight, thank you.

Let’s talk about how she got crucified in the media for having an affair with a married man, when that man was her director. And let’s remember that she was called all manner of things for “ruining her relationship with RPattz” when she wasn’t even engaged to the dude, let alone married with kids. But oh no, she gets called a slut because she’s Kristen Stewart, she gets her career fucked because she’s Kristen Stewart, and the dude gets off scott free.

Let’s talk about how she is incredibly shy and anxious (rather, incidentally, like Chris Evans) but does film anyway, because she’s just that awesome.

Fuck your noise. She’s not the best actor in the world but she sure as hell doesn’t deserve that kind of shit.

This. So hard. I’m not the biggest fan of Kristen Stewart as an actress, but I hate hate hate how much shit she gets blamed for as a person. Particularly getting kicked around sfm for the affair, which is utter bullshit, and the whole being shy and not smiling very often thing. She doesn’t OWE you that. There are tons of dude actors who are shy and smile in public way less than she does and not a word is said, but if Kristen Stewart acts that way — and seriously, if you were dragged through the media for stupid reasons as often as she is, would you really be smiling? — she’s a frigid bitch? No. Fuck off.

Also, I freaking love Kristen Stewart.  She is ridiculously smart and is amazing with her fans.  Despite being a shy person, she is fantastic with them.  For people who are actually a tad more aware of her reputation BESIDES the “I’m going to hop on the Kristen Stewart hating bandwagon because it’ll make me cool,” know that she is actually pretty well known for being awesome to her fans when they meet her.  She genuinely loves and appreciates them a ton. Also, seriously, I’ve watched several interviews where she hates on Twilight as much as Rpatz does. Do we talk about this? No. She is fantastic and I have watched and purchased movies for the sole reason that she is in them.  Maybe she’s not the MOST TALENTED ACTRESS EVAR, but she is still talented and incredibly insightful.

Grand Prismatic Spring

Located in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, the Grand Prismatic Spring is the largest natural hot spring found in the US. The spring has a scalding temperature of 160 °F (70 °C), a total depth of 160 feet and a diameter of 300 feet. The vivid, rainbow colors in the spring are the result of pigmented bacteria in the microbial mats that grow around the edges of the mineral-rich water.

Yellowstone, why were you so cloudy and cold last time I was there?  Note to self: don’t go to Yellowstone in the beginning of September.  June is a much better time to go.
