Expressive, adorable “special” poses (layouts) for DC Super Hero Girls episode #WorkingStiff 

One of the last episodes featuring @stephendestefano in Character Design, though most of these poses are @jennycalabro. I’d like to think that I can tell which is a Stephen DeStefano design, but then Jenny ends up highlighting the poses she did in my tweets. Perhaps Condiment King was a DeStefano design?

Character Design: Jenny Calabro, Stephen DeStefano, Ivy Jordan, Kirk Millet

Hey, gyns,

I'm sharing this GoFundMe for a female artist I admire in the industry. She's suffering from endometriosis, and she's having a very difficult time covering her surgery (around $40,000, maybe more).

That's a lot of money, but I'm hoping if I can spread this around, enough people may donate to get close to her goal.

I cannot imagine the hell that she has gone through so far: misdiagnosis, not being believed, unable to work because of the pain, etc.

I hope we can at least get close to offering her some relief from this nightmare.

Pop Culture Happy Hour, “Glass”

Stuff You Missed in History Class podcast, “Mary Queen of Scots”

The Writer’s Panel podcast, “Witchcraft in History, Practice, and Pop Culture with Jenny Calabro” 

[writerspanel]

I miss being in film theory class, especially the few horror film classes I took, and these witchy conversations have been a fun way to return to the deconstruction of tropes that can be so much fun. Today’s conversation with illustrator and witch Jenny Calabro, who’s worked on Marvel Rising, Black Panther Quest, and lots of other shows, is a great culmination of all of the conversations I’ve had these past few months. We talk about Jenny’s own history with witch craft, her favorite pop culture witches, and we really disagree about Hocus Pocus!

The illustration above is Jenny’s self-portrait!

We’re finally there! HEX WIVES is out tomorrow! I am terrified and excited.

If you’ve enjoyed even one episode of this podcast, please pick it up either from your local comic shop or digitally via Comixology here.

And if your local comic shop happens to be Golden Apple Comics in LA, well, I’ll be there Halloween morning starting at 10am to sign, chat, and drink coffee, so I hope you’ll join me.

'Melrose Place' Review: 1992 Show

'Melrose Place' Review: 1992 Show

7:30 AM PDT 7/8/2017 by THR Staff

On July 8, 1992, Fox unveiled Darren Star’s Beverly Hills, 90210 spinoff Melrose Place, a show that would become a pop culture staple throughout the decade. The Hollywood Reporter’s original review is below: 

Melrose Place isn’t so much a spinoff as it is a turnoff. This new FBC weekly series, centered on the inhabitants of an apartment house in a hip part of Los Angeles, hopes to attract the same sort of popularity won by Beverly Hills, 90210 by tying its debut about twentysomething adults to some of the teens seen on 90210.

However, the special 90-minute debut of Melrose Place (Darren Star, creator of 90210, is also Place‘s inventor) registers as an attempt to make a great deal about not very much, the show’s premiere only proving a Melrose Place is a Melrose Place is a Melrose Place despite FBC’s massive fusillade of promotion. 

Place‘s extended-pilot intro (normally the show will air for an hour) starts with a slick MTV-esque credit role accompanied by a pastiche of central cast members, and then contends itself with getting into the lives of the scripted dwellers of “Melrose Place.” 

There’s hunky, blue-collar construction worker-carpenter Jake Hanson (Grant Show), who is having deep doubts about continuing his relationship with 90210‘s Kelly (Jennie Garth) because of the age difference.

In addition to Hanson, other Melrose regulars include struggling actress Sandy Louise Harling (Amy Locane), a curvy, breathy Southern gal working tables at a restaurant-bar; Michael Mancini (Thomas Calabro), an earnest medical intern who also manages the apartment building where the “Melrosers” live; his wife Jane (Josie Bissett), a struggling designer; Matt Fielding (Doug Savant), a social worker running a Hollywood halfway house for runaways; Alison Parker (Courtney Thorne-Smith), a sweet but ambitious midwesterner who is just-out-of-college and works as a receptionist at an ad agency; Billy Campbell (Andrew Shue), a novice ballroom dance instructor who really wants to be a full-time writer and who has just moved in with Alison since her old roommate slipped off in the night without paying rent; and Rhonda Blair (Vanessa Williams) an aerobics instructor who hopes to find Mr. Right. 

What this all adds up to in Melrose’s premiere is essentially a here-they-are presentation of core characters by way of the 90210 tie-in. And while Melrose‘s comely denizens sometimes do indicate more about human nature than a GQ or W cover, the angst and Sturm und Drang of Melrose Place‘s escapades basically manifest not so much as a new p.o.v. but a change in zip codes and sideburn length. — Miles Beller, originally published on July 8, 1992.

Well, shit.

As you can tell by the thumbnail on the right, this was posted on my entry spreading the word about Jenny Calabro's edno surgery GoFundMe.

Like, dude, I'm trying to help raise funds for her!

I actually think this is a perfect example of how cult like the trans community and TRAs are. Even when this is to help someone with a serious medical procedure in the United States, which has notoriously high medical costs, they would STILL rather tell you to fuck off (and probably die) than help a fellow human being afford her medical care.

Even stranger, endometriosis is a sex-specific condition (cases in males is extremely rare, so don't try that). Or, I guess in genderspeak, "gender specific". Would they not consider this gender affirming care? Would they not support a woman getting treatment for her painful GENDER SPECIFIC condition?

Oh, no? I guess medical procedures are only important to women when it comes to conforming to superficial standards of "WoMaNhOoD".

Go ahead and tell me to fuck off again. It still doesn't change your SEX.

Do You Want Acupuncture But Hate Needles?

Written by Sara Calabro Founder, AcuTake

Most people, when they hear about the benefits of acupuncture, find themselves thinking, “That would be so good for me!” Less stress, more energy, better sleep and digestion... Who doesn’t want that?

But for many people, there’s one thing that holds them back from enjoying the benefits of acupuncture: Fear of needles.

There’s a spectrum of needle fears, ranging from downright needle phobic to being moderately concerned about the whole voluntarily-being-stuck-with-needles thing. Regardless, fear of needles is the number-one reason people choose to forego acupuncture.

5 things to remember if you’re scared of getting acupuncture

Acupuncturists get asked about the tool they wield all the time. Here’s what they tell people who say they’d love to try acupuncture but haven’t because they’re scared of needles.

1. They’re nothing like the needles you know.

“Needle apprehension is very common and natural, considering that we have been conditioned to associate needles with pain—think dentists, blood draws, and IVs,” says acupuncturist Kathryn Peak. “But acupuncture needles are hair-thin and nothing like the needles we are accustomed to in a medical setting.”

“Acupuncture is the most gentle form of needling possible,” adds acupuncturist David Bonilla. “If acupuncture was anything like getting a shot, I wouldn’t be in business!”

Most people who have never had acupuncture do not realize how thin acupuncture needles are. They bend when you touch them. For an up-close look at an acupuncture needle, check out this article.

2. Kids do it.

Acupuncturist Adam Cantor reminds people that the needling sensation from acupuncture is so gentle that even kids are cool with it.

“If children are okay with getting acupuncture, it can’t be so bad,” says Cantor.

Acupuncturist Naomi Richman takes a similar approach when faced with needle-phobic adults. “I had an exclusively pediatric acupuncture practice for six years, and I still see a ton of kiddos for acupuncture,” she says. “When adults tell me they are afraid of needles, I share anecdotes about a child I recently saw who was really brave, or I tell them, ‘This morning, I did acupuncture on a two-month old.’”

Acupuncturist Robin Green has a whole website dedicated to kids loving acupuncture. This is a real thing.

3. Don’t call them needles.

Sometimes just changing terminology can help assuage needle fears.

“I’ve found that simply changing the word ‘needle’ to ‘pin’ helps shift the mindset away from needle phobia,” says acupuncturist Amy Kuretsky. “My patients love saying that I stick them with pins instead of puncture them with needles!”

Acupuncturist Jodi Knauer has another name for acupuncture needles: “I have several patients who refer to acupuncture needles as ‘magical healing sticks,’” says Knauer. “This tiny shift in perception, away from the western-medical ‘needle,’ can help to release fears and phobias around acupuncture.”

4. You’re in control.

People commonly assume that they cannot move once the acupuncture needles are in place. That they need to lie there stiff as a board lest they endure excruciating pain or damage their insides. Understandably, this leads to a lot of anxiety and out-of-control feelings.

But it’s not true. A good acupuncturist will go at whatever pace you’re comfortable with. If you want to start with only a few needles and not keep them in very long, tell your acupuncturist that. If you want to pull out a needle that’s bothering you, go for it. If you get push back on this, find a new acupuncturist.

“I tell my patients that we can go as slow as they want so that they feel like they are part of the experience,” says acupuncturist Po-Hong Yu. “Acupuncture is not about something happening to you. You have a voice.”

One thing you can ask for is that your acupuncturist avoid acupuncture points in your arms.

Acupuncturist Kerry Jenni, a self-described needle phobe who realized after becoming an acupuncturist that acupuncture needles are nothing like the ones she’s scared of, says that keeping her arms free during her early days of receiving acupuncture was helpful.

“Moving during acupuncture is a weird sensation,” says Jenni. “With your arms free, you can be more in control.”

Acupuncturist Christina Morris makes sure that her fearful patients remain at ease once the needles are in. “I leave the patient with a pager so that they can alert me if they’re feeling overwhelmed when I’m outside the room.”

5. It’s not all about needles.

“If the needles really freak you out, there are other modalities that acupuncturists can use,” says acupuncturist Paola Acuna.

Acupuncturists are trained in several healing techniques, and only one of them uses needles. There’s acupressure, cupping, gua sha, moxibustion, ear seeds, qigong, herbs, among others. None of these things involve needles.
