21. Engaged!!. After a 3 year stint in Washington DC I now study Plant Science at the University of Manchester. I post some of my own pics, but I mostly reblog stuff from anime, fantasy and sci fi fandoms.

These housewives are the last gasp of the patriarchy, brainwhashed to believe that if they don’t play the game, they will lose the love and protection of men […] How long are we supposed to wait? How many more women are going to die from botched abortions while we wait for men to feel comfortable with us having control over our own bodies? How many women are gonna be forced to give birth to babies they can’t afford to feed while we wait for housewives, who have no idea what it’s like to have to work to survive, to feel comfortable with women having power? How long do we give people to adapt to change? Am I the only one who’s so fucking tired of waiting?

People realize Serena Joy from The Handmaid’s Tale is notoriously based on her right? 

“By now she was making speeches. She was good at it. Her speeches were about the sanctity of the home, about how women should stay home  Serena Joy didn’t do this herself, she made speeches instead, but she presented this failure of hers as a sacrifice she made for the good of all.  She stays in her home now, but it doesn’t seem to agree with her. How furious she must be, now that she’s been taken at her word.”

Video based on quantum physics. The colored balls are placed together alone by the resonance of the quartz crystals. Each color has a different resonance. In the same way we group the people that vibrate in the same frequency. This is how the universe works. Fact Check: A Galton board, also known as a bean machine, quincunx or Galton box, was developed by Sir Francis Galton in the 1800 to demonstrate the central limit theorem.

Sicilian almond trees! You can't get these in the UK. Did you know that they belong to the same genus as cherry blossoms? 🌸 #sicily #travel #mediterranean #landscapephotography #bokeh #nikon #nikond7100 #green #almond #tree #arbol #nature #outdoorlife #ig_nature #landscape #leaf #botany #sicilia #grove #italy #nature #naturephotography #fruit #instagood #blueskies #summer #almendro

It's feeling very autumnal I'm Manchester at the moment but I'm not ready to let go of summer just yet! So I'm going to keep the summer pics going for a bit longer.
