Reblogging for many things but especially for that final pun.

[aqueerkettleofish]

The final pun is brilliantly wrought and deserving of applause that is, at the very least, 45 caliber.

I’m sorry, I can’t come into work today. I didn’t get a long rest and god gave me a point of exhaustion. All my skill checks are at disadvantage.

“Would it make you jealous? The sight of me with someone that wasn’t you? Would it hurt you? To know my lips kissed someone else’s, Someone that wasn’t you. Would it hurt you to know I tasted someone else’s flavor? That I made someone else Breathless? That I made them say my name And call out to a god that doesn’t exist, Doing to them everything I have thought about doing to you? That I touched someone else Like I want to touch you? That I gave away my body To a stranger, But can only give My soul To you? That I let someone else do to me Everything I wish you would, But never will? What if I told you, All I ever thought about While I was with them, Was of you?”

“I am a collective of souls. I am all their hopes, all their dreams. I am both their greatest disappointment and most cherished possession. I am everyone and everything. Or at least it used to feel as if I had to be. I am. Whatever that means. Whatever that is. I don’t know. Once I was a daughter. Once I was a friend. Maybe even an enemy. Once I was a lover. Once I was comfort. Once I was anger. Once I was an inspiration. Once I was nothing. Once I was all. And now I am. I am less and I am more. To those who made me, who raised me, I am someone else entirely than who I believe myself to be. I am manipulative. I am a victim. I am weak. I am conniving. I am treacherous. I am not to be trusted. I am a flight risk. And yet I am loved still. In different ways from each of them. But loved anyhow. To those who work with me I am yet again someone else. Already two people, maybe three live within me. To them I am quiet. I am level headed. I am smart. I am invisible. To my friends, those who think they know everything about me, I am everything. I am loud. I am grace. I am laughter and dirty jokes and a foul mouth. I am the drinker, the smoker. I am reckless. I am adventurous. I am crazy. I am carefree. I am a rebel. And at the same time I am caring. I am warmth. I am heart. To my doctors I am a diagnosis. I am something to be treated. I am prescriptions and consultations. I am words on a report. I am a risk. I am symptoms and conditions. I am addictions and behavior analyses. I am a case. And once I was going to be a doctor. I was going to be a wife and a mother. And once I was going to be a singer and an actress. And once I was going to be good. And once I was bad. And now I am. And who am I? Oh, I am so many. I am everyone’s projections of feelings and dreams. I am an illusion, a mirage. I am no more than a good looking magic trick. I am smoke and mirrors. I am whatever it is they need me to be. And to me I just am. To me, I am enough, whatever it is that I am.”

white people love screaming about immigrants (who are poc specifically) coming to their countries and “stealing” their jobs but they don’t like to admit that there’s a wave of white people with no degree coming to poor Asia countries to become english tutors while having no ability to teach, they get hired n paid Way more than asian people with degree just for the sole reason that they’re white.

[visibilityofcolor]

also white ppl going to places like africa and stuff, pretending to be doctors and getting paid a lot whilst actual african doctors aren’t getting paid shit.

[themandarinorange-deactivated20]

You should have seen the white ppl coming over to Asia to take away jobs from the local beggars as well

While also being orientalist as fuck

Asians have already funded lots of things for white pple, it was called colonialism

Again, pls rmb that Asia is not your fucking wallet

These guys are literally too blind to see their entitlement

As I have stated b4, pls dont expect pur locals to give you pocket money for you trip of “enlightenment”

If you decide that you can afford to travel for 5 fucking months, you shouldnt be begging the locals for money

If i was begging in Europe, i would be deported

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

why are birds so cursed

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

A Non-Comprehensive List of Birds That Piss Me Off

1. Dracula Parrot. This thing pisses me off like, a bunch

2. King Vulture. the felted craft project equivalent of a haunted ventriloquist dummy

i will never not resent this bird 

 3. Jacana Bird. This is the most unnecessary cursed nonsense. i deserve an apology for having to look at this. I can feel its fingers stroking my ears

No it does not have SIX FREAKING LIMBS. it’s carrying its stupid creepy spawn under its wings. A+ parents but still, piss off. even the normal 2 legged version isn’t much better

put those AWAY.

4. The Shoebill, which i’m sure we’re all sick of hearing about. this thing is the epitome of a crappy photorealistic cgi disney villainy. i despise this bird.

also this is what they look like standing up. i just feel like i shouldn’t have to deal with that, i really do.

5. Inca Tern. truly, hipsters ruin everything

6. Tragopan. it looks like a star wars species, which i dislike on principle 

7. The Secretary Bird. it wears yoga pants.

also i’m uncomfortable with the length of its eyelashes

8. finally, i really dislike this one specific parakeet

in conclusion, these birds exist to haunt me and this knowledge is a burden. birds exist to observe our sin; always watching, they are filled with malice. flee from them

I saw everyone on twitter tearing Emma Watson apart for saying she’s self - partnered instead of single and decided to watch her interview for British Vogue to know what the hell was she trying to say with that. I was very surprised to find a 30 minute video in which amongst other things she talks about the following:

She felt undeserving when she was appointed as UN Women goodwill ambassador and sought out Gloria Steinem to learn about feminist activism.

She thinks the criticism she received for being a white feminist was useful because it made her educate herself.

She says there’s a desperate need to reform the education system in the UK to change the way they are taught the history of how Britain has been involved in foreign affairs and how they profited from slavery.

She felt anxious about approaching 30 because there’s a lot of pressure to have a husband and a baby by then and she’s still figuring her life out.

She was so young when she was casted in Harry Potter that she doesn’t remember much of her life before it and she went to therapy to deal with her issues with fame. She used to feel very guilty for being unhappy because she thought she should enjoy fame more.

The interviewer is a transgender woman and they discuss transgender issues for a while. Emma is in regular contact with a trans child which makes the topic of trans rights emotional for her because she’s very anxious for this kid’s safety.

She talks about her role as Meg March in the new Little Women movie and defends that unlike what many people say choosing to be a wife and a mother doesn’t make Meg a less feminist character and quotes a line from the movie, “Just because my dreams are different than yours it doesn’t mean they are unimportant.”  

She wishes more people would realize she’s not Hermione Granger but also understands why they want to see that in her because Hermione is a symbol for her too.

She used to think she could never be happy without a partner and now that she has learnt to navigate that better and is genuinely happy single she’s started to think of herself as self - partnered in contrast to the time when she thought of herself as single = lonely.

Every media outlet decided to focus in an out of context quote from the three minutes she talked about her dating life when the actual interview had a lot of depth and way more important things were discussed. I’m sad and angry but not surprised.
