Catalonia's firefighters joined to protect their people.

Unbelievable.

Stay strong catalunya!!

It’s not about YES or NO, it’s about democracy and human rights.

Spanish police vs peaceful voters. Judge yourselves.

All the solidarity with Catalonia. Shameful what's happening that brings us back to Franco's rule from the past.

Maybe it’s a sign of weakness when I don’t know what to say. Maybe I just wouldn’t know what to do with my strength anyway. Have we become a habit?  Do we distort the facts? Now there’s no looking forward. Now there’s no turning back.

Hi stardust, what do you do apart from embodying the universe? XD I already know we share an island.

ahahah. This is totally awesome. 

I am not sure what I do outside of embodying the universe. That is a big thing though right? 

I shall say, perhaps, that “I rebel therefore I exist” (A.Camus). 

And cheers to the island - it certainly is in need of some.

The bluntness. Who does not love Shelly?

What a great show. Amazing balance of seriousness, hilarious and smart humour. Something that in being so quirky and somewhat disfuntional  is also so normal and reflective of reality.

Season 4 just came out (No pun intended... maybe). Worth checking.

How marvelous books are, crossing worlds and centuries, defeating ignorance and, finally, cruel time itself.

Silent Retreat 2: When The World Breaks Through, Ch. 25

Author’s note: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also on A03 and ff.net.

The road we traveled could barely be called one. Packed earth with some gravel that ticked against the undercarriage of the car until it ran out, leaving us rocking through dips and furrows of dirt and mud with patches of tall grass that whisked under the bumper and wheels and was punctuated by the occasional rap of a small tree branch hitting the roof. Michael was used to navigating country trails in his old truck, but this was something different, his hands white-knuckled as he kept us to a steady but slow pace that felt both like it would take us too long and would never keep us far enough from our destination.  He was protecting his precious cargo, but it couldn’t feel like enough, considering our situation.

Lovely.

Such great series. Though I am surprised San Junipero was the chosen episode. At any rate... Yay Gugu and Mackenzie! <3
