i haven't seen any posts about this going around on tumblr yet, and i know theres a lot going on around the world but this is an issue that needs (and has always needed) more coverage tbqh.

Kylie Jenner has recently been under fire for her clothing line in collaboration with Kendall Jenner, Kendall + Kylie, refusing to pay Bangladeshi apparel workers making their products. the company is owned by Global Brands Group, which has decided not to pay the workers due to the lack of sales during the pandemic. people started speaking up about the payment issue on Kylie's instagram, but instead of a proper response comments were being deleted and eventually limited.

however, the issue doesn't begin and end with Kendall + Kylie, the treatment of factory workers in Bangladesh is a problem with a long overdue response. most of these people are women working in gruelling conditions, being paid in dust and recieving little to no benefits. their lives are seen as disposable. during the quarantine, factories continued production but laid off a quarter of the workforce while the rest still face the threat of wage cuts and lack of access to healthcare.

all the fast fashion we consume like Gap, Primark, Forever 21 and C&A comes at the cost of labour exploitation in developing countries like Bangladesh. this is the country where the main source of income is textiles, where the 2013 Rana Plaza incident killed 1,100 factory workers alone, where workers constantly protest for better salaries and safer conditions, and yet they recieve not even an ounce of dignity for their hard labour. change needs to happen, better sooner than later. will reblog with what you can do to help (since tumblr hates posts with links).

“There’s an ancient saying that you have three faces. The first one you broadcast to the world, the second you show to those closest to you, the last one you never show to anyone. The first one is Halsey, the second is ashley, but there is a third that exists in the cracks between the two... the most carnal, uninhibited, explicit, flash of color and light, hiding in the center of my chest. I am Halsey, ashley, and I am offering you a glumpse of that third face.”

OH, GLORY - a wip introduction by @whorizcn​​​​.

fame is a languid and fragile thing. calypso quintero knew that all too well.

GENRE: contemporary na psychological thriller STATUS: plotting && outlining THEMES/TROPES: blackmail, deadly ambition, deception, found family except everyone lowkey hates each other, manipulation, the morality of fame, power struggle, privilege WARNINGS: alcholism, drug use, eating disorders, mental illness, sexual assult, suicide LINKS: wip page, wip tag, pinterest, playlist

SYNOPSIS:

  21-year-old calypso quintero had it all: fame, awards, designer clothes, affluent parents who never knew the word no, millions of fans worshiping the very ground she walked, beauty and talent at her fingertips.

  adored by many and envied by thousands, she had the life that teenage girls dreamed of. she had a heartthrob of a boyfriend that starred in countless blockbusters, and an elite girl squad that dominated all social media outlets and graced the front covers of every relevant magazine: her name whispered like a hymn amongst her fans.

  well, that was until she was found floating in the waters of her malibu mansion’s pool, with a gun clutched in her right hand and a bullet buried in her left temple.

  calypso quintero had it all, so why did she kill herself?

“fiction is a place suitable for exploring dark topics” and “immoral acts shouldn’t be glorified and normalized in fiction” are statements that can and should coexist

people will see gross ships where the woman fixes the bad abusive boy or w/e and say “oh just like Beauty and the Beast” but y’all fail to realize Belle didn’t fix Beast. She’s not sitting there screaming about how “I know there’s good in you!!!!!!!” after he does something horrible. She’s not making it her goal to change him. Beast changes because he actively wants to become a better man. Belle is just existing around him and he’s like “hmm I wanna do something nice for her. I wanna learn how to read, and relearn how to eat properly so I don’t gross her out, and wear clothes properly instead of just ripped capes,” like he’s actually trying to be better, which is why the story works. Kyle Ron is not that. Edwin Cullen is not that. They’ll never have what The Prince has babes I’m sorry.

cw: mentions of suicide + suicidal ideation, discussion of mental health issues

for someone that claims to be a writer, this was a very hard and complicated mini essay to write. there are these weird moments when we’re trying to write something meaningful and heartfelt and then your brain just crashes and you’re like ‘what is emotion? what is grammar?’ but here it is!

so i initially started this blog back in november 2017, where it started off as a harry potter blog. of course, over the course of the next two years, i gradually added new fandoms until it eventually became what it is today. and somehow along the way, i acquired all these wonderful new friends/mutuals who made my tumblr experience even better! seeing them on my dashboard, reblogging their content, reading their fics, and learning about whatever part of their personal life they were willing to share, always always brings a smile to my face. i can’t thank you guys enough for being amazing and supportive and all-around lovely people. and now as we head into a new year, i really just wanted to show my appreciation for everyone who has made my tumblr experience a wonderful one so far. i hope you all have a fantastic new year!

Mr. Darcy really had some nerve accusing Jane Bennett of not adequately expressing her love for Bingley like he didn’t spend half the novel talking shit about Elizabeth to her damn face
