Just because it ended doesn’t mean you have to set fire to what you’ve built. You just don’t have to visit there anymore.

For those following along with my #ProjectForAwesome art requests, I’ve decided to do these two. I’ll be starting them next week.

This is even better than that snowman I found at Goodwill that looked exactly like this: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Like, WAY better.

As fucked up as I understand the world is

I still never thought I'd have to text my parents on a Saturday night to reassure them that my brother is fine and wasn't at work when the shooting started.

There will never be closure. But tonight there is an ending. ... [Jacob's] had peace all these years; may his family start on the road to peace tonight.

Jason DeRusha, WCCO I cried immediately when I heard this morning that Jacob's body was found. Then I told my mom, and we cried together. This feels...all-encompassing. Jacob disappeared when I was 9, so for 75% of my life I have lived with hope for Jacob burning in a corner at the back of my mind: often forgotten, but always there. I think it was the same for most of Minnesota. He belonged first and foremost to his family, who never ever gave up hope. But he also belonged to Minnesota. He was our brother, our son, our friend, our classmate. Tonight we grieve collectively for the boy that we all hoped would somehow, someday, come home.

it’s okay to miss someone that was unhealthy for you

it’s okay to miss someone and not want to go back to them

it’s okay to miss someone that hurt or left you

emotional attachments don’t just disappear and you shouldn’t guilt yourself over it – take your time

what she says: i'm fine

what she means: i don't understand how paintings work in the wizarding world. how do people in the portraits suddenly appear out of no where and then disappear? does that mean the person in the portrait have to make the conscious decision to go be in one of their portraits? like with the chocolate frogs, does dumbledore take time out of his day to go be on some chocolate frog cards? and when a dead person is in the painting how do they still have a conversation with people as though they are alive? harry has had multiple conversations with dead people in paintings. so why was the resurrection stone so important when someone could just talk to a painting of the dead person without any consequences.

Happy Sundog! (Is that still a thing?)

That awkward moment when

you find out that a guy you worked with in high school has moved to your area and is now working at the same place you are, and is still the same obnoxious know-it-all that he was 20 years ago. Let's just say I'm gonna start wearing a fake engagement ring on my left hand, kids.

This is an incredible idea. I might actually watch that.

Balcony Sittin': "New Harry Potter" Edition

I really wish “The Barack, Michelle and Joe Show” was coming back for a ninth season

If for no other reason than they showed us–through eight years of international and domestic turmoil–that politicians and statesmen and leaders can also be actual fucking human beings with humility and self-awareness and self-effacing wit.
