Boys are doing significantly worse in school than girls, did you know that? Comparably, in terms of writing and reading, boys are doing as worse than girls than girls where doing worse than boys in science and math in 1950. That’s right, 1950. When was the last time you heard someone talk about this? You probably never have, so I’ll keep talking. Current college enrollment numbers are 60-40. Even if huge campaigns start tomorrow this gap won’t close minimum 30 years. This is just one issue.

Star Wars Rebels: Introducing Hera
Twi'leks are my favorite. I may have a new favorite character!
I love this introduction of her … small nitpick: the ‘glamorous’ comment made me facepalm. It’s like “don’t worry guys! she’s still a GIRL!”

Ernest et Celestine (2012)
One of the animated films nominated for an Oscar, and my absolute favorite on the list ( The Croods, Despicable Me 2, Frozen and The Wind Rises).
Sweet, charming, funny and so beautiful.
I need to see this still, stupid American theatres don’t like 2D films though.

Wonderful little short! Sometimes you just have to stop staring at your phone and interact with the real world.
(on a side note, this perfectly captures the lovely feeling of being in a cafe in Japan, I miss them …)
