The Carambolians

"The vastness hit me like a punch to the stomach." There are two skeletons with flesh running this thing, worry not. 18 weird years of stretching our bones. Hypothetical artists and animal planet hosts in the making. DavidAttenborough-core 5evah.

Troop 6000 is the first in New York City designated solely for homeless girls. 

The new troop is among a number of programs begun by the city to meet the needs of children, who make up nearly 40 percent of the roughly 60,000 people in the city’s primary shelter system. Of 287 people housed at the Sleep Inn, 155 are under 18, according to homeless services.

The Girl Scouts of Greater New York is covering the costs for Troop 6000: a $25 membership fee; a $75 starter kit of patches, pins, workbooks and vests; and the $20 monthly dues. Donations are being accepted.

These girls deserve a better life.They’re amazing and beautiful and they are so kind. They want to grow up and be able to help other homeless people , to build shelters and save lives. These noble thoughts should not drown in poverty and the lack of opportunities for homeless people. We are the community we should help each other and fight for equal rights and opportunities, because unity is the only way to survive.

Can anyone pleaseee grant a poor Central America resident (me) hehe, access to the episode 2 of season 4 SHERLOCK, I would really appreciate it with all my heart. I was trying to watch it on BBCiPlayer and it’s not valid in my country, like sheet stuff here is available like years after everyone has already watched it. Count your blessings european creatures, for real, look at all that privilege. 

I am even willing to pay the bbc for them good shows online, but nahhh they are mean. 

[carambolians]

heyyy there @everyone/anyone

HOW ARE YA¡? I send you virtual brain hugs and good vibes first and foremost! it’s been a while for this blog, like there’s a point in life in which one’s computer usage gets paused for indefinite periods of time, that’s lyf (or the consequence of having too many people in the house and only 1 half functioning computer, which is also a consequence of this wicked world in which fams can’t afford stuff). 

I wanted to greet the followers, the mutuals, the thriving people out here, like literally just hi. Still here still kicking it, am i right? Hahah hi!

Real talk for a second. 2017 isn’t going to magically get better. Not to say that it won’t get better at all, but 2016 isn’t some sentient entity hell-bent on fucking everybody up. The events of 2016 were products of years worth of tension and, more importantly, large scale inaction.

2017 can totally be better, but not if we keep ignoring issues and thinking that “eh someone else will take care of it.” 2017 will be better only if we make it better. And please. Let’s make it better.

I O U: Ten Reasons Why John Watson is Actually Moriarty

(1)   They already told us:

They’ve been telling us since Season 1:

See also:

(2)  Are We Sure That Little Girl is Pointing At Sherlock.  Are we sure.  Are we positive.

(3)  The Storyteller. 

Who’s the storyteller of the Sherlock Holmes canon again?

(4)  Sherlock’s first introduction to John (and his subsequent deductions) is paralleled to his first introduction to Moriarty:

Of course Sherlock’s deductions about Moriarty are totally wrong, manipulated by fake characteristics that were planted to fool Sherlock into dismissing him.

But let’s face it - faking an entirely psychosomatic limp that you can forget about half the time, offering a phone that’s been engraved with “clues,” and loudly declaring “different from back in my day” when you enter the room aren’t much more difficult than irritating one’s own eyes to suggest that you go clubbing and picking up a visible underwear brand.

More beneath the cut…
