Learn to defend against a bigot grabbing your hijab from behind!

In this post-election hate-crime spike, self defense is more important than ever. Practice this move until it becomes muscle memory and teach your body to react before thinking.

(via Zee Abdulla)

Signal boost. Anyone know if this would work equally as well if he grabbed with his other hand? I feel it wouldn’t, but it’s still better than nothing.

If the attacker used the other hand, then the woman wearing the hijab could use the opposite arm than is shown. SO PRACTICE BOTH SIDES.

Also please note the position of her arm on his. It’s not on the elbow but just above it. That is will be important for the submission. The grip on her hand is important as well. It looks like she is using a monkey grip where the thumb stays with the fingers of the hand instead of wrapping around. It protects your thumb from being broken and can be a stronger grip in general.

But yes, practice practice practice practice

Btw, if you click on her name, Zee Abdulla, in the post it takes you to her Facebook where she has another video for a defense for a front hijab grab.

Hey, Alex! I’m looking for a fic, it’s BDSM johnlock, John has been a dom in past but now is kinda reluctant to go back to that lifestyle until he recognizes that Sherlock is a sub and needs pain to cope with life (I think he asks John at some point to be his dom). It’s something from your recs that I bookmarked but now cannot find it :(

Yup, beats the stuffing out of me, nonny. Ha. Perhaps some clever person has read this recently and has a good idea? Anyone???

Was it by any chance an asexual fic? It kinda sounds like my fic As You Are

If not, though, I want to read whatever it is.

It’s a bit small for me, but I guess it’s my bird’s dildo now.” On the right, a close-up of a very happy cockatiel (!) standing on a pink dildo.

Frida Kahlo And Other Historic Women Are Being Made Into Barbies

The lineup is definitely more wide-ranging than I expected.

We start with Amelia Earhart, Frida Kahlo, and Katherine Johnson (of Hidden Figures fame – who, at 99, consulted on what her figure should look like!)

Then we have many more modern figures, very few of whom I was expecting:

image
  • Spanish entrepreneur and fashion designer Vicky Martin Berrocal
  • Chinese actress and philanthropist Xiaotong Guan
  • Australian wildlife conservationist Bindi Irwin
  • Italian soccer player Sara Gama
  • American Olympic snowboarder Chloe Kim. 
image
  • Polish journalist Martyna Wojciechowska
  • British boxing champion Nicola Adams
  • Chinese prima ballerina Yuan Yuan Tan
  • American filmmaker and Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins. 
image
  • World-renowned French chef Hélène Darroze
  • Chinese volleyball champion Hui Ruoqi
  • German designer and entrepreneur Leyla Piedayesh. 

It should be noted Barbie already offers figures in this line celebrating Ava DuVernay

Emmy Rossum, ballerina Misty Copeland, and Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas.
