Rise Up, Oh Heart, For There is Another Battle to Win

swingsetindecember:

where a grad student becomes a supervillain for extra credit since their doctoral committee is lowkey three of the city’s supervillains. and they meet the hero who is cute and charming and idealistic. and damn, extra credit is so not worth this. but damn, grad school is expensive and the job market is competitive 

“there’s good in you”

“i really think all that’s in me at this point is ramen, red bull and spite”

at what point in history do you think americans stopped having british accents

Actually, Americans still have the original British accent. We kept it over time and Britain didn’t. What we currently coin as a British accent developed in England during the 19th century among the upper class as a symbol of status. Historians often claim that Shakespeare sounds better in an American accent.

whAT THE FUCK

I’m too tired for this

Always add in the video that according to linguists, Native southern drawl is a slowed down British.

T’ be or not t’be, y’all.

ahh yes earth day where we pretend that the reason human beings are fucking the earth over is because your mom doesn’t recycle and not because global corporations are ducking national regulations and then calling their products “green” because they donate to an organization to save cute animals in your name

It’s been a while since a big election and this is the first time some Tumblrites are voting so here’s a quick warning:

Please Don’t Snapchat, Instagram, take a selfie with, etc, your vote in the voting booth! There are laws in almost every state forbidding sharing your vote, especially if polls haven’t closer yet. If any officials get wind of it they can invalidate your vote, basically throw it away. This was actually a thing during Obama’s election.

So make sure you get out and vote, and make sure it counts! Keep your phone in your pocket for this one.

One of my biggest fears about this election is that all the millennials are gonna come out and vote for Bernie Sanders and forget to vote for anybody else. Every seat in the House of Representatives is up for reelection and a bunch of Senate seats are up as well. Most states do their governor and state legislature during mid-terms (which means we’re all gonna need to go out again in 2018), but a few are open in this cycle and people living in those states need to know about that too.

There are two things about American politics that nobody seems to know and everyone should: republicans only win when people don’t vote and local politics affect you at least as much as national level shit. Vote for your favorite Presidential candidate, but also vote for like, city council and state representative and stuff. It’s all important and if we as a generation want to make real change we need to flex our voting power at every level of government and show our country that we are a political force to be reckoned with. I want to see us out, in force, in every election until we’re all goddamned dead. Because that’s how shit gets done in a democracy.

this generation gets dragged so much and insulted so much and called conceited and careless and lazy and stupid and yet we’re just taking selfies when we think we look nice and complimenting each other and educating ourselves and un-learning internalized prejudices and we care so much about the world and the future and we’re so tolerant and passionate and perseverant and i love it. i love it so much. everyone hated us and we just didn’t care. everyone hated us so we learned to love ourselves

the worst thing about writing is that you aren’t just a writer. you have to be a thousand things. a poet, a flirt, a weapons expert, a bleeding heart, a scholar, a legendary cook, a theorist, an engineer, a reckless teenage girl, a dying god. you have to be able to write monologues and speeches and heartfelt confessions, and you have to make them believable. writing is putting yourself into someone else’s shoes.

writing is really hard (◕︿◕✿)

I remember all the Doctor Who fanfics I used to read where Rose often got badly stereotyped as a damsel in distress whom the Doctor had to swoop in and save and smooch but the way I remember Doctor Who 90% of their relationship was the Doctor just setting Rose loose on people who had done something to offend them and sitting back giggling in the corner as she shouted

“setting Rose loose”

i think rey would cry if poe cooked her something that’s native to his home world.

#a true thing about me…..#is that i spend 90% of my free time thinking about poe and rey meetin#its like …. legitimatelly …..#one of the only thigns that i care about#not even in a romo way but like high key: in a romo way#consider: poe and rey hanging out over finns bed#while he’s unconscious#rey hums little songs she made up and then after she’s stopped a few hours later poe gets the humming bug too#and anyway of course that ends to them teaching each other songs and he pulls out his space guitar and she smiles at him#the Full Force Daisy Ridley Smile#and poe spends the next week standing in front of his mirror every night and pointing his finger at himself and sternly saying NO.#NO.#NO .#he fashions her a necklace out of wood from yavin 4#and has to brush her hair away so he can put it on her#she grabs his hand first bc idk she’s So Sad abt finn#finds him one night reliving the horror of ben solo poking around in his brain etc#guilt abt the village or w/e#she sings him the song he taught her#stumbles over the space spanish#anyway both of them no DOUBT begin to feel some guilt bc there finn is#in a medically induced coma#and here they are#falling asleep on each others shoulders#(rey is warming up to hand holding)#poe showing her around an xwing and jessika making so many suggestive faces @ him that he points at her sternly & mouths CALLATE#rey: what?#poe: what?#rey: did you say something?#poe: what? no buddy!

there were more tags and tumblr CUT THEM OFF @ tumblr the fuck, anyway its out in the open now and the point is that eventually she has to leave, and when she leaves she says “take care of finn” but also “take care of yourself” bc she’s seen his dark nights and they aren’t good, aren’t what he deserves, and then when she finally comes BACK well of course finn & poe have had months and months to settle in w/e its very gross, anyway she comes back and she and finn bounce off one another and collide and spark and run to each other across the tarmac fly into each others arms etc, but poe has an old soul and something in rey is ancient, so after a long moment of finn she turns around & she and poe simply fold themselves around each other right there in front of the general & everyone 

bc w finn there’s the loud ecstatic outpouring of love and joy but w poe rey finds something quieter, w poe rey has silence, bc poe is still like a lake in the jungle of yavin 4, a lake in the jungle beneath the moons, and finn is the of course the bubbling noise of the water 

anyway! NOT that i have thought about this at length

I think people who don’t menstruate overall just don’t understand that we cannot stop the blood. If there’s nothing to collect it, it’s going everywhere. Most people can hold a shit, can hold a piss, and can hold back sex, until it’s convenient. When we bleed there is just no stopping it. It doesn’t matter if there’s nothing to catch the blood, it will keep coming.

That’s why this free-tampon discussion is over your heads. You don’t get it. You can compare it to toilet paper or condoms all you want but most of us have control over those things. When we bleed, we keep bleeding until it’s done. There’s no clenching or muscle training that will keep us from bleeding everywhere.

So stop talking about what you don’t understand. If condoms can be free, so can tampons.

People in Iowa who support Bernie Sanders: PLEASE GO TO THE CAUCUS.

I know the Democratic caucus procedure is annoying and more complicated than the Republican procedure but Sanders is SO CLOSE to Clinton and who is most successful in this caucus is going to be 100% dependant on turnout.  If you want to vote for Sanders in November, you have to show up for Sanders now.

Clinton is more popular in older demographics and Sanders is more popular in younger demographics and the older folks WILL go to the caucus.  Young people have to show up too, because if we do, SANDERS WILL WIN THE WHOLE ELECTION but if we don’t show up now, he won’t even get the nomination.

Since and including 2000, the winner of the Democratic caucus in Iowa has gotten the Democratic nomination for President (Gore in 2000, Kerry in 2004, Obama in 2008 and 2012 - The Republican winner got the nomination in 2000 and 2004 but not 2008 (Huckabee) or 2012 (Santorum) but usually the Democratic winner in Iowa goes to the general election) SO IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO GO, YOUNG DEMOCRATS.

Here is where you can find a Democratic location near you.  Please show up.
