Won't You Be My Valentine?

Happy Valentines to all my fellow geeks out there!

Won't you be my valentine?
These amazing Star Wars cards will surly win your heart!







I just love Katie Cook's Star Wars art (all of her art, really)
I'll be her valentines any day.

Be you attached or single, remember to have fun and be safe.
All my love

Thursday Threads - Her Universe Halloween



Halloween is only a few weeks away!
Do you know what you're going to be yet?

If not, Her Universe has just the Halloween Collection for you!

Which bad-ass Super-heroine do you want to be? 







Or are you more of a Disney Girl?


I am in love with this Minnie dress! I want it for everyday wear!


Even since I saw The Little Mermaid in theaters when I was a kid, I have always wanted her pink dress. Now I can own it! And I realize that it's meant for Halloween, but how cute would this be at a fancy dinner party?



If Studio Ghibli is your bread and butter, check out these sweet outfits



This Princess Mononoke outfit is part of a totally different collection, but I think it fit's here perfectly, don't you?



So what are you going to be for Halloween, other than totally awesome, of course

Happy International Women's Day


Happy International Women's Day!
Being a Woman is awesome, but it does sometimes come with some draw backs; mostly misogyny and period cramps

We've come a long way towards gender equality, but we're not there yet. We still need to keep talking about it and working with everyone to make it better. 
The Government of Canada put this on their website today, explaining the ways that women are not yet equal and what we can do to help. They also had these awesome pictures expressing different ways of  why #equalitymatters and trying to break stereotypes








Not only did they post these, they also included text of what the pictures contained as an extra accessibility. You keep on rockin' GOC

One of the things I love in the World is Barbie. 
"But you're a feminist!" you say. 
Yes, that is true, but loving Barbie doesn't change that. Barbie can be anything, do anything, and I don't know anything more empowering than that.

This year they have released this amazing ad and I think we can all learn a lot from it



Now imagine the possibilities if we taught our children this instead of focusing on looks and bodies

Also check out today's Google doodle, as it's pretty awesome

If you're in the Toronto area this Saturday (March 11th) there's the International Women's Day March Toronto taking place and yours truly will be there.

Happy Life Day



It's that time of year again. 
Grab your loved ones and your favorite red snuggy and gather around and share the goodness of Wookiee Life Day

Wait, you say.... are you talking about the Star Wars Holiday Special? 
Yes, I am
But isn't it a Christmas movie?
Nope, the Star Wars Holiday Special was released as a US Thanksgiving Special (Novemeber 17 1978), not Christmas like everyone seems to think.


Now most people have never seen this Holiday masterpiece do to the fact that it has never been re-released and is almost impossible to find.
Did I say masterpiece..... I lied. This movie is terrible. It's not even good in a bad sort of way that makes it worth watching, It's just terrible. That being said, you should still probably watch it, just to say that you've seen it and lived to tell the tale.

It gives us such quality(?) pieces such as Chewbaca's creepy-ass family



Super pretty Luke


Stoned out of her gourd Leia



 the Holiday Special Cartoon


with the introduction to Boba Fett



and my personal favorite Cooking with Chef Gormanda


Seriously though, this is my favorite part and I want to re-enact it some day


So, is that enough to tempt you into watching it? 
I hope so because HERE IT IS!!


Yes, all 96 horrible minutes of it. 
Enjoy

And Happy Life Day to us all.
