Everyone Please read.This is Crystal Stadler. This is my mom’s ex’s daughter. This is a dear friend and practically a family member. We grew up together, and she was like a sister to my brother and I. On 2/4/13, she suddenly died at the age of 25 because the state was not checking her blood for toxins from her presciptions like they were supposed to. Now her mother is in debt, and living with her partner, the person she thought she could trust…who on the day Crystal died, sat and selfishly watched TV as Crystal laid collapsed beside her.
Please read this statement written by her mom, Marie Stadler
“On February 4, 2013 my daughter suddenly passed away she had just turned 25. The autopsy showed that her system had become toxic because of all the Biploar meds and there was a lot of them that she was taking. That day she was with my now ex partner a person I thought I could trust to take care of my daughter, instead when my little girl collapsed and stopped breathing she didn’t try to call 911 or ask someone to help instead she watched television for an hour saying she wanted to see what I wanted to do. She is not the one that called me a friend of my daughter Crystal from school called and told me where they were and that I needed to come get her. When I walked in the room Nancy was watching television and Crystal was on the floor, I quickly turned her over and she was blue. I called 911 and started CPR till the medics got there and after working on her for 30 minutes but she had been down too long. All Nancy would say was “I made a mistake I sorry”
Please help out Crystal and her mother pay for her the debt of her funeral. Her mom has been reaching out a hand all she can, and has received no donations so far. She has made this page where you can read more and donate! PLEASE READ AND REBLOG:

warning this is a mindless rant-sorry sorry but I need to vent because damn it don’t ring me at 11 at night when I leave the room so that I then have to ring you back only to have such bad signal that you just say goodnight and hang up X.x no don’t no because now I have to go to bed wondering if you actually wanted to have a conversation and missing you, damn it no. maybe I should just stay up and try to find my independence because it appears to have gone walk abouts
Michele Caragher
Embroidered details in Game of Thrones
‘Michele Carragher is a London-based Hand Embroiderer and Illustrator who has been working in costume on film and television productions for over 15 years. She studied Fashion Design at The London College of Fashion, where the course incorporated design, pattern cutting, garment construction, embroidery, millinery and illustration. At the same time she attended a three year evening course in Saddlery at Cordwainers College learning skills in leatherwork.
After leaving college Michele worked in Textile Conservation, repairing and restoring historical textiles for private collectors and museums, specialising in hand embroidery. She then moved into a career in costume for film and television, initially working as a Costume Assistant/Maker on productions such as the BBC’s Our Mutual Friend, ITV’s David Copperfield and Mansfield Park. She soon gravitated towards the decoration and embellishment of costumes, using skills in hand embroidery and surface decoration, taking inspiration from the many historical textiles she had encountered working as a Textile Conservator.
The first production that saw her undertake the role of a Principal Costume Embroiderer was for HBO’s 2005 Emmy Costume award-winning production of Elizabeth 1. Her most recent work has been on HBO’s 2012 Costume award-winning television series Game of Thrones, working on all three seasons.
As a Costume Embroiderer Michele specialises in hand embroidery and surface embellishment, using traditional hand embroidery techniques, smocking, beading and surface decoration. She works directly onto the completed garment or starts with motifs and textures on silk crepeline/organza, which are applied to the costume and then worked into once on the actual garment. She also works on existing machine embroidery designs that are not too dense, adding some hand stitching and beading to give a more authentic, hand-finished look.
Michele finds hand embroidery has more flexibility and diversity than that of embroidery created by machine, as there is a greater variety of thread choice and colours to use. It is also possible to work more easily on garments that are already constructed. However, machine embroidery in combination with hand work can be very useful when completing many repeats by creating light outlines or a less dense machine stitch, work can then be completed by hand and again can be carried out on a finished garment.
Michele is a highly creative Costume Embroiderer, producing original designs as well as working closely to a costume designer’s brief to create their desired look.’

today in class this boy told me to kill myself i stood up and showed him my scars and yelled “DONT YOU THINK IVE TRIED” the boy stared into the abyss awkwardly for what felt like hours while the rest of the kids were silently watching we both then sat down and i began to cry, the boy then began to cry and showed me his scars, the teacher sent us in the hall and there we talked about our lives.

This is an old family picture.
My family does not support my being in the LGBTQIA community. They actually are opposed to it. They tell me every day that its disgusting and that it’s sinful and I’ll go to hell for liking women.
I moved out when I was seventeen, and in January I moved back in with them because I couldn’t handle everything that was going on. Every day one of my five siblings tells me to go back to Minnesota. My little brother Charlie (the black baby in the picture) is now 8 and he constantly physically attacks me and tells me that I’m not his sister and to leave. My other siblings make it very obvious and clear that they don’t want me here and my parents tell me constantly that they’re gonna kick me out soon.
I’ve been saving every penny for a bus ticket to Oregon to stay with my best friend and today I found this picture in my sisters’ room ON DISPLAY. Not hidden. On display. They cut my face out of the picture.And that… That was just the last straw.
I don’t care if anyone reblogs this or whatever, I don’t wanna get popular, I just want people to know that this is not what a family looks like. This is not something people should have to go through.This is no life.

guys according to Don Cheadle’s interview with Conan, this scene was improvised by Robert (video @ 2:00)
I heard they don’t even bother writing half the script in his movies cause hes always making thingsup anyways lol.
They give him scene cues and he just talks and other actors are forced to keep up with him.

People being angry about ~dem gays~ on Target’s Facebook.
I just want to give my two cents on this and tell you a story.
A couple weeks ago, I was hired at Target. I have a job at Target. Not a big deal right?
It is a big deal because i’m a transman.
It doesn’t take a genius to conclude that it’s hard for me, my brothers, and sisters to get a job. There are legal restraints regarding the job and if you don’t pass, it’s hard to be taken seriously at a job interview.
Right on the application, it asks what your preferred name is. It also asks if there is anything that target should know. I put the fact that I am a transman, expecting not to get a call because usually when you put that down, people will throw out the application. I got TWO interviews.
At the interview, they asked me about it. I told them I am on hormones and they told me that they didn’t care. Not in the sense that they don’t emotionally care, but that it didn’t matter. I was male and that’s all that mattered. They also told me that they give sex same couples benefits in states that do not recognize them as a married couple.
At my job orientation, I was not misgendered once. Even my supervisors who weren’t sure of my gender avoided pronoun use, which I found only happens when you’ve had pronoun training. They gave me a name tag with my preferred name and didn’t ask questions. I felt safe and respected, which is huge for a trans* person.
TLDR: Target is amazing not just for the LGB, but also the T. Shop there for the rest of your life.
