you are important.

beginnings are usually scary and endings are usually sad, but the middle is what makes life worth living.

hi, yes! ask away :)

[buildyourownarchitecture]

i love your most recent update!! your clexa fic is so good i cannot wait until the next chapter!! how often do you update it?

thanks! i don’t really have a regular update schedule. it’s been kind of slow moving because of grad school and dissertation, but should speed up in the next few months. i have several chapters written already, so at least a few should be up in the next few weeks :)

Clarke Griffin, rising sophomore at Polis College, has just taken on a Resident Assistant position, thanks to her big cousin Bellamy.

Between controlling her chill, learning the ropes, still kind of healing from her high school sweetheart dying, and desperately trying to keep her other cousin, Octavia, out of any serious trouble, things are bound to get interesting, and quickly.

Anyone here vote third party? Unfollow me

[maljic]

Right now.

[welcomedistraction]

To the 5% of people in Arizona who voted 3rd party- if you had voted for Hillary, that’s 11 electoral votes that would have gone to her.

To the 3% of people in Florida who voted 3rd party- if you had voted for Hillary, that’s 29 electoral votes that would have gone to her.

To the 5.5% of people in Michigan who voted 3rd party- if you had voted for Hillary, that’s 16 electoral votes that would have gone to her.

To the 5% of people in New Hampshire who voted 3rd party- if you had voted for Hillary, that’s 4 electoral votes that would have gone to her.

To the 3.3% of people in Pennsylvania who voted 3rd party- if you had voted for Hillary, that’s 20 electoral votes that would have gone to her.

To the 5.7% of people in Wisconsin who voted 3rd party- if you had voted for Hillary, that’s 10 electoral votes that would have gone to her.

Total, that is 90 electoral votes. As I type this, Hillary needs 61 to win.

Please just let that sink in for a second. 

Hillary would’ve been elected right now, at this very moment, if instead of you protesting your vote, had just voted for her. She would  EASILY be President. 

You KNEW 3rd party candidates didn’t stand a chance. You were told. But instead, you had to vote for them anyways, and guess what?

You screwed us over. Congratulations.

I hope that feeding your “both candidates are bad” superiority complex is worth a Trump presidency.

i’m seeing a lot of people reblogging suicide hotlines and this is just a reminder that this is a suicide help line that works like a text-based instant messenger for people who may need to talk to someone but have trouble/are uncomfortable making phone calls

[groovian-whovian]

Never don’t reblog this. There are so many people who have such bad anxiety about phone calls. This can save so many lives

[redshiftsinger]

Also helpful if someone is in a situation they may not feel like talking out loud about their problems is a viable option (for instance if they live with a douchecanoe who would mock them for seeking help)

[fattynoodles]

1-800-273-8255 is the USA National Suicide Prevention Hotline so like, if you need tonight, do that
