Dawn D. Musings: Social Before Brand:Putting the Cart Before the Horse:

Working on a Social Media strategy before sharpening the edges around your unique business brand is like putting the cart before the horse. This realization rang true for me after the few weeks I spent with clients and during my weekend at Social Media expert Mari Smith’s VIP retreat.

Dakota Fanning and Riley Keough as Cherie Currie and her twin sister Marie. Note Dakota has Cherie’s infamous cherry tattoo.

Riley Keough should’ve just played Cherie, she looks way more like her.

bythegods:

Sleipnir

In Germanic mythology, Sleipnir was the greatest of all the horses of the Aesir. He was Odin’s horse, though was used by Hermod to travel to Helheim in an attempt to save Baldr. An easy way to remember Sleipnir: he has eight legs. Spider-horse. He’s incredibly fast, and did many deeds of renown throughout his careers as steed to the All-Father, but his origins are especially interesting.

Early in the reign of the Aesir, just as they had finished building Valhalla, the gods were still concerned about the encroaching threat of the frost giants. A builder appeared, and offered to build for the Aesir a mighty fortress, but in exchange he demanded Freyja as his own, as well as the sun and moon. The Aesir didn’t think this was a fair trade, but Loki convinced them to give their assent, and they turned it into a wager: if the builder could finish building the whole fort in three seasons, without the help of any other man, he could have what he asked. He accepted, and was permitted the use of his stallion to help carry materials.

Three seasons in, the builder had finished the whole damn thing, but for the entrance. The stallion is what had made it possible, carrying the bulk of the materials every day. With one day left to finish, it looked like the gods were going to have to pay up. They went to Loki and said “fix this or you’re dead.” Loki, always responsive to threats, turned himself into a lady-horse and strutted his stuff in front of the stallion, who promptly ditched the materials he was carrying for the builder and sprinted off after girl-horse-Loki for some R-rated horse-on-horse action. The builder spent all night chasing them, and didn’t finish the fort, and the Aesir won the bet. Poor builder. At this point, the Aesir also realized that the builder was a frost giant, and Thor smashed his head open. Poor builder.

The gods have done some weird stuff, and maybe they took a moment to reflect on how strange they all were when, a few months later, they watched Loki give birth to a horse; the fruits of his weird plan to impede the builder’s progress came in the form of Sleipnir, steed of the Aesir.

i12bent:

Erich Korngold (May 29, 1897 – 1957) was a Jewish Austrian classical composer whose popularity was largely founded on his work in film music after he came to the USA, first in 1934, and then again in 1938. He did, however, also write operas and instrumental concertos, which were condemned by the Nazis as Entartete Musik. Best remembered is his 1920 opera Die Tote Stadt…

“

“Real women have curves” was a marketing slogan thought up to sell people overpriced, ill-fitting pants. It does NOT promote body positivity – it only perpetuates body policing by turning the tables on people who don’t fit into yet another arbitrary ideal.

The job is to BUST THE FUCKING PARADIGM APART, not shift it a little bit toward the fat side. The job is to remind people, bodies are not public property and your opinion about an individual’s body is only an opinion, not a valid judgment of their worth as a human being. The JOB is to destroy systemic oppression of nonconforming, rebellious bodies no matter what those bodies look like.
