Why Jurassic World Doesn't Deserve Claire Dearing (Or Her High Heels)

Why Jurassic World Doesn’t Deserve Claire Dearing (Or Her High Heels)

marlenalynnemuse:

Yes. This.

Fifteen seconds into the clip he's taken a page out of the 1963 edition of Hack Screenwriter's Digest and turned her business-related comment into sexual innuendo. "That's not funny," she responds in the most patient and reasonable tone she can muster.

Incidentally, given that they work for the same corporation, this interaction falls comfortably under the umbrella of workplace sexual harassment and should at least get him a slap on the wrist from HR, but whatever. He doesn't play by the rules, man. He goes his own way.

But Claire getting a dressing down by her male co-stars was a part of the film's marketing, so that I was expecting. What I wasn't expecting was Claire getting a dressing down for being ambivalent as to whether or not she should be a mother from her own goddamn sister.

At one point, after the kids are reunited with Claire and Owen, and after Owen drives a car (backwards) away from a stampeding mob, one of the kids cries, "Can we stay with you?" to which Claire responds that she'll never leave them alone again. "I meant him!" says the kid, pointing to Owen, who he has only just met.

Atlanta, GA

I was working as a cashier at a retail store during one very rainy summer. When I finished ringing up a customer, I would always ask if there was anything else I could do for them. A lot of customers, thinking they were clever and original, would ask me to stop the rain. I would look out the window, snap my fingers, and then look annoyed and apologetic when the rain didn’t stop, and it made

Peridot and Pearl wild mass guessing

Spoilers, maybe? IDK. Cut anyway

OK so drone!Pearl is pretty much confirmed, now. We know that the Homeworld Gems [HG’s for short] have been making artificial Gems for some significant time.

Pearls, at least Earth pearls, are generated by ocean molluscs from grit or sand that gets stuck inside.

We might be allowed to assume that HG Pearls were generated in a similar manner. Cultured Pearls, if you will. They have some technical knowhow, as evidenced by Pearl building a

Challenge #00905-B174: Easter Egg

The best kept secret of the jaegermonsters

Jaegermonsters hunt in packs. That much is self-evident. Jaegermonsters are not the brightest candles in the window. That, too, is self-evident.

Lord Palinquest thought he was being clever by separating the invading Jaeger pack in disparate cells in the middle of unique booby-traps in the labyrinth under his castle. He’d even tune in when he was bored to see how they were doing.

What he didn’t know, what none but the most observant

Halp!

Beloved has no time for me :(

They’re literally so busy that there is no time for reading.

Which means I need volunteers NOW.

People who want to polish a book for dead-tree publication.

People who can get back to me about what needs fixing. People who know funny.

Please help.

Hey fellow writers!

noodle-noggin:

I just want to take this time to say you’re all awesome. Seriously, every single one of you is awesome.

The genre doesn’t matter. The fandom doesn’t matter. The ship doesn’t matter.

You can write novels or you can write drabbles. You can write daily or you can write once in a blue moon. You can swing between struggling to get words down on paper or juggling multiple plots at once.

It doesn’t matter if you

It's DONE!

I just wrote the final words of the alpha draft of KFZ.

Kinda waiting for a meteor to fall on my head at this point. It’s been one hell of a year for real life to interfere with the progress of a book.

I’ve already made up my mind on the dedication:

For Mayhem, who gave me the best worst idea ever.
And for Dad. I wish you could have read this.

IDK about the formatting tho.

This is it.

Call for beta-readers

I need readers, soon, for my finished alpha draft of Kung Fu Zombies.

It has to pass through Beloved’s hands first. Of course.

After that, I will need people who can get back to me in a relatively fast time [if you can devour a book in a day - great! If you can retain info from that, then better] and especially people with a sense of humour.

My idea of funny generally sails over other peoples’ heads. So I need
