When i get married my bachelorette party is gonna be me and 7 of my closest friends hiking for months in life threatening conditions in Fellowship cosplay
Do you have 7 close friends? wtf how do you get that?
I actually have like 13 so some of them have to be Orcs and just continually attack us at random throughout the trip
Why seven? There were *nine* of them
I wanna go back and forth between Legolas and Frodo bc I like their outfits
u know whatâs attractive???
magnets
If courage isnât the absence of fear but doing the right thing regardless of it, maybe confidence isnât the absence of insecurity but knowing you have real worth despite it
this is beautiful
By this same token, maybe goodness isnât the absence of bad thoughts or impulses, but the conscious choice to behave according to your moral ideals in spite of them.Â
All true
randomslasher Actually true. Thatâs why many mistakenly think good = naive, which isnât true at all.  Real goodness is choosing to do what is right.Â

I needed this.
Thank you to all the people who posted this so I ended up seeing it. I really needed this right now. Thank you!
Yeah⊠Not gonna lie⊠I criedâŠ
We need more people like this
Goddamn it stop making me feel human
The therapist I wanna be.
Text in the image:
âIâm a therapist and keep this poster in my waiting room, apparently itâs saved a few lives.â
I donât like the phrase âa cry for help.â I just donât like how it sounds. When somebody says to me, âIâm thinking about suicide. I have a plan: I just need a reason not to do it,â the last thing I see is helplessness.
I think your depression has been beating you up for years. Itâs called you ugly, and stupid, and pathetic, and a failure, for so long that youâve forgotten that itâs wrong. You donât see any good in yourself, and you donât have any hope.
But still here you are: youâve come over to me, banged on my door and said, âHEY! Staying alive is REALLY HARD right now! Just give me something to fight with! I donât care if itâs a stick! Give me a stick and I can stay alive!â
How is that helpless? I think thatâs incredible. Youâre like a marine: trapped for years behind enemy lines. Your gun has been taken away, youâre out of ammo, youâre malnourished, and youâve probably caught some kind of jungle virus thatâs making you hallucinate giant spiders.
And youâre still just going, âGIVE ME A STICK. IâM NOT DYING OUT HERE.â âA cry for helpâ makes it sound like Iâm supposed to take pity on you, but you donât need my pity. This isnât pathetic. This is the will to survive. This is how humans lived long enough to become the dominant species.
With NO hope, running on NOTHING, youâre ready to cut through a hundred miles of hostile jungle with nothing but a stick, if thatâs what it takes to get to safety.
All Iâm doing is handing out sticks.
Youâre the one saying alive.
I legit cried at this. Iâve needed to hear it put this way. Bless this post.
Every time I see this post I stop to read the whole image. It always helps â even on the good days.
Because it wasnât weakness. It wasnât shameful to seek help. It wasnât pathetic to âcry for helpâ. I was looking for a stick, be that from myself or from someone else. I was trying to find a way out. I was trying to heal myself.
this is fuckin incredible.Â
Iâm sorry if I repost to many of these, but if it could be someoneâs âstickâ then itâs worth it
BAM!
Everyone needs a stick now and again.
If you're wondering where all the TS posts are, they're over @making-forts-under-covers-13
whatâs your holy trinity of Taylor Swift songs? mine is our song, begin again, and dress (at least at this moment) put yours in the tags
for chinese new year they get all these famous actors and comedians together and they do a lil show and one of the comedians was like âi was in a hotel in america once and there was a mouse in my room so i called reception except i forgot the english word for mouse so instead i said âyou know tom and jerry? jerry is hereâ
jerry is here
my chinese teacher once shared this story in class about someone who went to the grocery to buy chicken, but they forgot the english word for it, so they grabbed an egg, went to the nearest sales lady and said âwhereâs the motherâ
When I was a teenager, we went to Italy for the summer holidays. We are German, neither of us speaks more than a few words of Italian. That didnât keep my family from always referring to me when they wanted something translated because âYouâre so good with languages and you took Latinâ. (I told them a hundred times I couldnât order ice cream in Latin, they ignored that.) Anyway, my dad really loved a certain cheese there, made from sheepâs milk. He knew the Italian word for âcheeseâ â formaggio â and he knew how to say âpleaseâ. And he had already spotted a little shop that sold the cheese. He asked me what âsheepâ was in Italian, and of course, I had no idea. So he just shrugged and said âIâll manageâ and went into the shop. 5 mins later, he comes out with a little bag, obviously very pleased with himself. How did he manage it? He had gone in and said â'Baaaahâ formaggio, prego.â
I was done for the day.
This makes me feel better about every conversation I had in both Rome and Ghent.
I once lost my husband in the ruins of a French castle on a mountain, and trotted around looking for him in increasing desperation. âHave you seen my husband?â I asked some French people, having forgotten all descriptive words. âHe is small, and English. His hair is the color of bread.â
I did not find my husband in this way.
In rural France it is apparently Known that one brings oneâs own shopping bags to the grocery store. I was a visitor and had not been briefed and had no shopping bag. I saw that other people were able to conduct negotiations to purchase shopping bags, but I could not remember the word for âbag.â
âCan I have a box that is not a box,â I said.
The checkout lady looked extremely tired and said, âUn sac?â (A sack?)
Of course. A fucking sack. And so I did get a sack.
I once was at a German-American Church youth camp for two weeks and predictably, we spoke a whole lot of English.Â
When I phoned my mom during week two I tried to tell her that it was a bit cold in the sleeping bag at night. I stumbled around the word in German because for the love of god, I could remember the Germwn word for sleeping bag.
âYeah so, itâs like a bag you sleep in at night?â
âAnd my mother must probably have thought I lost my mind. She just sighed and was like âSo, a Schlafsack, yes?â
Which is LITERALLY Sleeping sac ⊠The German word is a basically a one on one translation of the English word and I just⊠I failed it. At my mother tongue. BIG
My former boss is Italian and she ended up working in a lab where the common language was English. She once saw an insect running through the lab and she went to tell her colleagues. She remembered it was the name of a famous English band so she barged in the office yelling there was a rolling stone in the labâŠ
Iâm Spanish and have been living in the UK for a while now. I recently changed jobs and moved to a new office which is lost somewhere in the Midlandsâ countryside. Itâs a pretty quaint location, surrounded by forest on pretty much all sides, and with nice grounds⊠full of pheasants. I was pretty shocked when I drove in and saw a fucking pheasant strolling across the road. Calm as you please.
That afternoon I met up with some friends and was talking about the new job, and the new office, and for the life of me I couldnât remember the English word for pheasants. So I basically ended up bragging to my friends about âthe very fancy chickensâ we had outside the office.
Best thing is, everyone understood what I meant.
I love those stories so muchâŠ
Picture a Jewish American girl whose grasp of the Hebrew language comes from 10+ years of immersion in Biblical and liturgical Hebrew, not the modern language. Some words are identical, while others have significantly evolved.
She gets to Israel and is riding a bus for the very first time.
American:Â ŚŚŚ ŚŚŚŚ ŚŚ? (âHow much money?â but in rather archaic language)
Bus Driver:Â Ś©ŚȘŚ ŚŚŚŚŚ. (âTwo zuzimâ â a currency thatâs been out of circulation for millenia)
thatâs hilarious
I am officially screamlaughing at my desk from that last one OH MYÂ
Does everyone know the prime minister who promised to fuck the country?
So in Biblical Hebrew the word for penis and weapon are the same. There is a verb meaning to arm, which modern Hebrew semanticly drifted into âfuckâ: i.e. give someone your dick.
The minister was making a speech while a candidate, bemoning the state of the world. âThe Soviet Union is fucking Egypt. Germany is fucking Syria. The Americans are fucking everyone. But who is fucking us? When I am prime minister, I will ensure we are fucked!â
What the hell Biblical Hebrew.
Just guessing: The path from something like âgive someone a bladeâ to âgive someone a blade, if you know what I mean ;)â is probably not that difficult or unlikely.
^Given that the Latin word for sheath (like, for a sword) is literally âvaginaâ, I can verify that this metaphor is a time-honored one.Â
Oh yeah and one time my Latin professor was at this conference in Greece and his flight was canceled, so he needed to extend his hotel stay by one more night.
Except he doesnât speak a lick of modern Greek, and the receptionist couldnât speak English. Â Or French. Â Or German. Â Or Italian. Â (He tried all of them.)
Finally, in a fit of inspiration, he went upstairs and got his copy of Medea in the original Greek (you know, the stuff separated from modern Greek by two and a half thousand years). Â He found the passage where Medea begs Jason to let her stay for one more day, went downstairs, and read it to the receptionist.
She laughed her head off, but she gave him the extra night. Â
Reblogged just for Medea

My cousinâs mother tongue is English, but she also speaks Spanish, French, and Arabic so you could say sheâs pretty good with languages. She also has an extensive English vocabulary. She spent two years in Peru and spoke nothing but Spanish while she was there. For the first few hours after we picked her up from the airport, she was fine and used her crazy advanced vocabulary like she hadnât left. But we were eating dinner and she was telling a story and said âThere something on theâŠâ she said something in Spanish. Weâre like âSorry Meg we donât speak Spanish. She huffs and says âYou know, the /thing/.â She points down and waves other hand in a flat plane. After her struggling like this for another 30 seconds my uncle is just like âDo you mean the âgroundâ, Meg?â She slammed her hand down on the table âYES!â

I did a cover of the latest Taylor bop!Â

@taylorswift you have to listen to this sister!
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH???? @taylorswift
Last weekend will be held dearly for a long time. I'm still unpacking (literally and metaphorically) everything that happened. Thank you everyone who came to watch us! It is always so rewarding to share what we've been crafting. Thank you to everyone who made the recital possible. It is never to be taken for granted that we get to share our gifts and worship God through dance in the same place that we learn about and worship Him on Sundays. Thank you to all my lovely students, who never cease to amaze me with their hard work and how they show up even after a semester of their teacher being just a little more crazy. Every word you wrote will be treasured always. Thank you to my fellow dancers. That last week is always the hardest but we made it through, despite injuries, sickness, and a myriad of other unexpected problems. There is no other group of people I would rather go through that than with you. Thank you to all of my wonderful teachers, this year and in the past, who spent so much of their time and effort to make us look good and still point us to why we dance. Thank you especially to Carolyn and Devin. I hope you know how much you've shaped my life. And lastly, thank you Jesus for sustaining me this last year. Taking it one day at a time has never been a talent of mine, so thank you for walking me through that and for letting me be a part of something as special as this. https://www.instagram.com/p/ByWcyCflVnS/?igshid=o6whvp9zma9h
Happy March 32nd, everyone!
you can only reblog this once a year
Pride & Prejudice (2005), dir. Joe Wright
We donât talk enough about how part of Jane falling for Bingley is that he thinks Elizabeth is DOPE AS SHIT and openly loves hanging out with her. Cute nice boy has taken Netherfield at last? Great! Cute nice boy who would legitimately be super stoked if Elizabeth ended up being a spinster aunt who lived with them and taught their children to embroider their cushions very ill indeed as long as she kept laying down sick burns? MARRIAGE MATERIAL.
Post-book Mr. Bingley is ALWAYS excited before parties where Elizabeth will be in attendance, because he knows she is going to make some very unexpected jokes and he will be in STITCHES and also in AWE and yay for loving and supporting at least one of your in-laws.
@zombeesknees
#i mean Bingley genuinely LIKES Darcy#theyâre a classic combo of golden retriever and aloof dignified cat#so of course golden retriever Bingley is going to meet Elizabeth and go YES GOOD A NEW CAT FRIEND#DARCY COME MEET MY NEW CAT FRIEND#Darcy: HISSS#Elizabeth: HISSS#Bingley: SEE WEâRE FRIENDS

A woodpecker hitched a ride on the side of this manâs car during a rainy day in Chicago.

Lmfaooooo the way the bird closed its eyes when he said âyouâre beautifulâ had me weak.

*in a thick Chicago accent* âWelcome to Chicagoâ
If you could instantly be granted fluency in 5 languagesânot taking away your existing language proficiency in any way, solely a gainâwhat 5 would you choose?
move your finger back and forth so it looks like the cat is following it
This is more entertaining than it should be.
This is why I love Tumblr.
two hours later i click reblog
five hours later i click reblog
Itâs more fun if you move a quarter of a second before the cat does so it looks like it has a shitty reaction time
