Fun Fact:

Marquis de Lafayette’s last political act was resigning as commander of the National Guard because he refused to order the Guardsmen to fire on the rebels of the June Rebellion–the very same June Rebellion of Les Miserables fame

i was babysitting a little boy and girl once and the boy asked me if i had a boyfriend and i said “no!! but i have a girlfriend!” and he said “like a friend thats a girl?” and i said “no like a boyfriend but they’re a girl instead of a boy! we still do couple things but we’re just both girls” and he said, without missing a beat, “oh ok! are you gonna marry her?”

like it’s literally that easy for kids to understand

the cutest part of this was when afterwards the kid said ‘so i could have a boyfriend if i wanted to?’ and i said yes, but to be careful because some people are mean to boys who have boyfriends and he pushes up his sleeves and goes ‘well then i’ll beat them up! if i wanna have a boyfriend i’m gonna have a boyfriend!!! i’ll even marry him if i wanna!’

oh hey it got more adorable

See what pops up first with these words:

Ass, shit, bitch, fuck, damn

the ass one made me laugh.

I realised I swear too fucking much

Today I learned that apparently I think swear words form complete sentences.

I believe in aliens but not like in the conspiracy theorist sense more like in the “the notion that in this infinitely-huge universe our planet is the only one with life on it is fucking absurd” sense

when did we replace the word “said” with “was like”

When it occured to us that “said” implies a direct quote, while “was like” clarifies that you mean to communicate the person’s tone and general point without quoting them word for word.

THANK YOU

I was listening through Hamilton today, as you do, and it occurred to me that there’s probably a parallel universe out there in which Washington suffered a bout of insanity and answered the question of “Treasury or State” differently.

I am ready to bet that this hypothetical alternate America with Secretary of State Hamilton and Secretary of the Treasury Jefferson didn’t make it through the first five years.

i just imagine jim kirk joking about his death sometimes bc maybe his humour’s a bit twisted like he’ll be acting super happy and say something like “i’m positively radiating!” and suddenly every single person in the room snaps their heads around and glares at him bones would probably punch him tbh

ghostdog401 asked: F: Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.

This conversation, from this untitled Sam/Steve/Bucky friendship ficlet.

“It’s Captain America, Barnes,” Clint said, a laugh hidden beneath the deadpan.  “He doesn’t need taking care of.”

Bucky stopped and gave the plane at large a pitying sort of look. “You poor sonsabitches, you fell for it. You fell for the spiel.  Let me tell you somethin’, when I say I left for five minutes, I mean five goddamn minutes.  I turn my back on this little shit, last time I’m gonna see him before I go off and get my ass shot at by a bunch of dickless Nazis, and he runs off and signs up to be a guinea pig for Stark.  I wasn’t even out of the city, I was a hundred yards away.”

“So compared to that, this seems like a much better plan, don’t you think?” Steve asked, grinning. 

BECAUSE I FELT LIKE BUCKY NEEDED TO GET THAT OFF HIS CHEST, AND I AM PROUD TO HAVE BEEN A PART OF IT.  

I’m also very proud of literally all the dialogue in this untitled Rogue/Remy ficlet, but I couldn’t pick a favorite bit.

Things only bullied kids will understand

pro-punk-anti-sjw:

-Beliving that none of your friends actually want to be your friend and they hate being near you
-Hating normal things because they were used to mock you
-Having to seek constant validation for your existance
-Remembering particular insults you’ve been called for years and will probably never forget them
-Beliving you’re too ugly for anyone to ever love
-Not wanting to go to a new school/further education because you know the same thing will happen there
-Having your parents tell you that you’re only being ‘teased’
-Having people wash their hands in disgust if they accidentally touch you.

Remember, you don’t have to feel all of these to understand

-Having people say you like someone as a way to gross that someone out
-Never quite trusting anyone.
-Having people ask you out as a dare
-”They’re only making fun of you ‘cause they’re jealous!”
-”He’s only mean to you ‘cause he’s got a crush on you!”
-Having to deal with bullshit ‘zero tolerance’ policies

-”hey, my friend thinks you’re cute!”

This. I dealt with almost all of this bullshit all my life and it still haunts me today…

-being unable to process genuine acceptance and compliments when you finally get them
-fear emotional intimacy will result in betrayal

- being hyper aware of specific body parts you got bullied for & intensively hating them even when its been like 10 years

- never really missing your childhood or wanting to go back

- just straight up thinking youre below everyone and have less worth and having that issue so ingrained to your very being that you never even realise how big of an issue it is

- never ever feeling like you belong anywhere
