I don't feel good and I don't know what I did to deserve this why am I such a weak sickie

If you're still taking prompts, I would love to see Killian resort to urban dictionary to understand the modern world.

“You’re being extra salty today, love.”

Emma swerved the car in shock.

“What?”

“I’m just saying, you sound as if you’ve chugged a pint of haterade the way you’re throwing shade at Zelena today.”

She had to pull the car over. She turned in her seat to face him. He gazed back at her innocently, patiently waiting for her to speak.

“Henry did this, didn’t he.” she accused.

A smug grin broke out across his face.

“The lad introduced me to an urban dictionary on the google. He thought it best if I updated my vocabulary to this realms standards.”

“Uh huh. And how’s that working out for you?”

“He seemed to regret his actions. Though I must admit, a Cheewbacca from those movies and what’s on that dictionary are two very different things.”

“How so?” She grilled, dreading the answer.

“Let’s just say I won’t be using it’s advice to be waking you up any time soon.”

Emma shook her head and started the car again.

“Hey Killian?”

“Yes?”

“You’re banned from google, babe.”

This is such a small step but seeing it in the store today honestly made my day. We still have a long way to go but these little things make me smile.

I NEED THIS OMG

[unpickingthetangles]

Whoa there! This is an area I am WEIRDLY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT. You want to know where to buy them? LET ME RECOMMEND YOU SOME.

I work at a greeting card shop, a mom-and-pop (but really single mom shop) kind of place and I have to add to this! 

Companies have just started to make wedding cards featuring same-sex couples in the last two years. This year for the first time a major distributor made same sex Valentines Day cards! I was over the moon!  

This is from Papyrus! They are a great card company that you can get at loads of stores like Target. 

BUT THEIR WEDDING ONES ARE BRAND NEW AND AWESOME. 

See that matching set of ties? That was our best selling wedding card about four to six months after marriage equality became legal in our state! Do you know how many nervous old women I had to help pick out a same-sex card? LIKE SO MANY. 

I had a man in his 90′s who was super nervous even ask me (quote), “I don’t mean to be offensive I just don’t know the word for a girl who likes girls and I don’t know what card to get my great niece.” And I was like, “The word is lesbian, you aren’t being at all offensive, and this card here will be perfect.” BEST DAY OF MY WORKING LIFE OKAY. 

Meri-Meri cards also have great same sex cards!! The Mr. and Mr. banner is also one of our best selling wedding cards! 

BUT HOLD THE FUCK UP.

BECAUSE LET’S TALK ABOUT ANOTHER CUSTOM CARD SHOP LESS THAN A BLOCK AWAY FROM US.

Ladyfingers Letterpress!! Run by a woke as fuck lesbian couple!! 

You want a card for a transgender family member? FUCK YEAH YOU DO. 

You want a polygamous/bisexual inclusive card? HELL YES. 

You want to remind your family that you are the GAY COUSIN??? 

DON’T SUBSCRIBE TO ANY GENDER? ANY SEXUALITY? STILL QUESTIONING? LOOK AT THIS. 

FUCK YEAH INCLUSIVE GREETING CARDS.

NOW YOU KNOW WHERE TO FIND THEM AND WHAT COMPANIES TO SUPPORT.

hey if u can’t drive/are a slow learner due to a disability or mental illness, just picture historical figures like pirates or the founding fathers trying to operate a car.

it’s only “easy” bc we’ve normalized it.

[bashana-haba-ah-deactivated2017]

it would be great for neurotypicals to reblog this

I didn’t get my license until I was 26 because of my mental health struggles. Just sayin’.

[michellekpoems]

I treat myself like I would my daughter. I brush her hair, wash her laundry, tuck her in goodnight. Most importantly, I feed her. I do not punish her. I do not berate her, leave tears staining her face. I do not leave her alone. I know she deserves more. I know I deserve more.

Bitch this all ny friends lmaooo fuck

[lesbianvenom]

just remember that had voldemort picked neville to kill instead of harry and nevile was the boy who lived/the chosen one if neville had that lightening bolt scar severus snape would still be a death eater

it’s not like he thought being a death eater was wrong — it wasn’t until something directly affected him did he reconsider and idk about you but that is not my definition of “bravery” in the slightest

[secretbraintwin]

That…is actually a really good point

[siriusblaque-archive-blog]

fleur delacour is so important i can’t even put it into words

badass girl whose “most precious” was her sister, who despite what anyone might think of her (cough molly cough ron cough hermione cough) looks past any aesthetic unpleasantries because she is completely and irrevocably in love with bill, who willingly risks her life for harry (the seven harrys, anyone???), who manages to create a spot of brightness in the middle of war (wedding!!!), who is feminine and badass at the same time, who opens her home to an entitled goblin and multiple refugees/runaways, who doesn’t sacrifice one bit of her integrity or character despite the looming threat of war

Meanwhile, Trump’s inauguration was literally the most watched program in American history at 31.1 million viewers

[king-jarrod]

The most watched program in American history at 115.2 million viewers was Super Bowl XLIX on February 1, 2015. And the only non-sporting event that made the top 20 of most watched broadcasts was at number 8 the M*A*S*H finale on February 28, 1983 with 105.9 million viewers. Trump’s inauguration wasn’t even the most viewed inauguration, that goes to President Reagan’s first inauguration with nearly 42 million viewers, the second most watched inauguration goes to President Obama’s first inauguration with 37 million viewers. So Trump’s inauguration was very far from “literally the most watched program in American history” as you put it.

Watch: We love this inspiring ad about girls kicking ass and taking names that Audi made to promote equal pay for women

The commercial depicts a girl racing against boys in a soapbox derby while the voiceover makes an uncomplicated case that men and women should be valued equally. Seems like a pretty obvious thing to say. But of course, the ad has attracted a group of serious haters.
