I normally don’t like to add to posts, but this is just one of my favorite things about her. I guess Carrie Fisher just carried glitter everywhere, because she did the same thing at Indiana Comic Con when she was there in 2015. She actually kinda got in trouble because she was taking so long with each person who came for autographs because she wanted to “baptize them” with her glitter. She wanted to make sure that everyone who saw her got some glitter.
tldr; she was truly a gift and i sobbed at work when i got a notification that she passed, and i’m crying now as i type this.
So what if we all picked a day and wore glitter for her?
Next May the 4th seems appropriate. Dedicate Star Wars day to the original princess?
LET’S DO IT!!
I am so on board with glitter for Carrie day.
She talked about how her therapist (I think it was in her book Shockaholic but I can’t check right now) always knew when she was having an ‘off’ time in her head depending on how much glitter she’d show up wearing to appointments. It was her way of making the world sparkle and shine even when it felt dark. It made her feel better. Evidently she wanted to share that with others.
I purposely went out and bought glittery body dust in her honor. I’m going to welcome in 2017 lit up like a firework. Ain’t none of y'all going to ever be able to hug me ever again without getting covered in glitter. It’s on. We’re doing this. And on May 4th we’re going to make the world shine.
I’m friends with a makeup artist who worked for a bunch of various comic conventions. Basically, she was hired to make the celebrities up so they would looked polished and professional for photo ops and the like. She did Carrie Fisher’s makeup pretty often for these convention appearances, and she said she’d spend all this time giving Carrie a natural, understated look, and every time, EVERY TIME, she would finish, and ask Carrie if she was okay with how she looked, and Carrie would say, “yeah, it’s great, whatever”, and then my friend would turn her back for like, .02 seconds, and by the time she turned back around, Carrie Fisher would have somehow covered herself in glitter, like some sort of sparkly ninja.
So, to make a long story short, I have a wisdom tooth extraction scheduled in January due to necessity, but I’m not exactly financially in a spot where I’m able to afford my surgery. I will also be starting to pay my student loans in the early portions of 2017 and need to build a cushion, which is hard to do paycheck-to-paycheck.
I could REALLY use a hand spreading the word so if each one of my followers would be willing to reblog this, it would help me out so, so much. <3

I currently have three open slots and would love to get them filled before I go in for surgery. <3 I am able to accept WePay and PayPal, and I’m really hoping to get some work in before I get it done. If you’d like to see more of my work or would like to inquire about commission pricing, please contact me on my art tumblr @ghealachlan
If, for any reason, you’re not interested in art but would still like to help:
What if the reason a demon’s real face and body is so distorted and deformed is because once they sell their soul, or become a demon, every scar they’ve ever received, physical or otherwise, reappeared permanently on their skin?
What if Dean’s new face is damn near unrecognizable because of all the crap he’s been through. Physical scars from hunts, and broken beer bottles, and misfired rifles, and countless fights, and John’s whiskey-breath punches. Emotional scars from Mary’s death, and all the people he let down or let die, and a hundred at least for dragging Sammy into all of this again, and another for every time John told him to protect Sammy, even if it meant getting hurt (or killed) in his place. Scars for breaking the first seal and the last, for the Apocalypse, for Lucifer, for the Leviathan, for Eve, for Abaddon. Scars he inflicted on himself for protection, now burning away because there isn’t anything left in him to protect. The Mark of Cain glows on his arm, standing out above all the rest.
When Cas sees him next, he can’t even speak. He relies on the part of him that’s losing grace, that’s becoming human, to see that it’s still Dean. He’s always seen the scars and troubles in Dean’s past, but never at such a fullness, all at once. Never as a whole. It’s heartbreaking.
And then Dean sees Castiel. Not Cas, not the awkward angel who until recently (endearingly enough) never got his jokes, but Castiel, the angel with wings and glowing blue eyes that are brighter than the sun and a halo that shines. Dean can do nothing but be totally overwhelmed.
when people defend the “Cis white guy is default” thing like “He’s meant to be an everyman we can all relate to and project on!” kindly remind them the largest ethnic group in the WORLD is Han Chinese and the highest gender percentage fluctuates so if you want an ACTUAL “default” you want a 40 year old chinese person whose gender changes from year to year.
