becoming an adult is essentially having all your friends in different cities and permanently missing someone
gjensynsglede
(noun) An untranslatable Norwegian word, gjensynsglede is described as the feeling of joy, anticipation, love you experience when you are about to meet someone you haven’t seen in a long time. (via wordsnquotes)

GiantEye - Lock Pick Earrings Because sometimes you just need a pair of fancy earrings that double as lock picks - Gray
@weareassassin @we-are-rogue
Oh my god these are so beautiful and I want to own them right now. But just a heads up if you’re in Missippi, Nevada, Ohio, or Virginia, just the possession of lock picks is considered prima facie intent to commit a crime, so I think technically it would be illegal to even own these there. I would be seriously fascinated to see that court case unfold, though. Considering they’re earrings you could make a very good argument that your only intent was to look amazing as hell.
@eviko I kind of want Rose to own a pair of these
2015 was my character development year which means 2016 is strictly action and story progression and i don’t know about you but i’m excited
Friendly reminder: Not all Nonbinary people want to look androgynous. Nonbinary doesn’t mean you can’t have boobs. Nonbinary doesn’t mean you don’t want genitals. For some it does. For some it doesn’t. Nonbinary can look feminine. Nonbinary can look masculine. Nonbinary can look like both. Nonbinary can look androgynous. But Nonbinary doesn’t have to look like anything. Nonbinary looks nonbinary. If you are nonbinary then you look nonbinary. There is no specific look you have to have.
I’m not the first to make this joke and by god I won’t be the last
OH MY GOD

“Rebel” Acrylic and gouache on Rives BFK mounted on wood panel 9″ x 12″ Here’s my piece inspired by Princess Leia for Gallery 1988’s Star Wars: Art Awakens gallery show and charity auction, a collaboration between Gallery 1988, Disney, LucasFilm, and Bad Robot. Pieces in the show will be auctioned off for charity on eBay on Friday, November 13th. If you’re in Los Angeles, you can see the artwork in person on Saturday and Sunday (November 14th and 15th) from 11am–10pm at Gallery 1988 (West). Find out more info here and support a good cause!
Almost everything in this piece is a reference from the original Star Wars trilogy: the symbols of the Rebel Alliance and the Empire, band patches for Max Rebo Band and the Mos Eisley Cantina band, “Rebel scum,” tattoos of Alderaan and Leia’s blaster, modified X-wing pilot gloves, the vest Leia wore on Hoth, her pants from Endor, the chain she used to strangle Jabba, and of course her hair from A New Hope. If you couldn’t tell, I had a lot of fun with this!
Forgive yourself.
When you wake up late. When you procrastinate. When you fail yourself. When you fail others. When you can’t leave the house. When you’re late paying bills. When you don’t have a job. When you’re failing in school. When you’re not pleasing your parents. When you hurt yourself. When you hurt others. When you lie to yourself. When you lie to others. When you love the wrong person. When you make the same mistake. When you feel defeated. When you lose your temper. When the last time turns into a time again. When you cheat yourself. When you’re not good to yourself. When you don’t have a plan. When you feel hopeless. When you hate yourself. When you’re impatient. When you tell yourself to give up. When you stop believing in yourself. When you lose faith. When you doubt yourself. When you forget to say I love you.
Forgive yourself.
ONE MORE TIME FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

The first thing to remember is that towns aren't just built, they are planned in areas that give them certain advantages. So you can't start with the layout, you have to start with understanding why the town was built there. "Towns adapt to their surroundings," Roberts writes, explaining the process. "The first thing to do is to draw the terrain the town sits on. In this case I’ve picked a peninsula with a larger outcropping at the end. The coast is rocky and broken apart from a low bay on the NE."

There needs to be an open and honest conversation about having sexual relationships with sexual assault survivors and what that can entail.
cause all of the cooing and “I understands” dry the fuck up as soon as being triggered and not wanting to have sex happens when the other partner wants to have sex.
and the “you should have told me” turns into “why are you rejecting me, I am not them”
a sexual assault survivor being triggered/ not wanting to have sex is not “Blaming/ punishing you for what other people did” or projection.
It is harmful enough to know what people think of survivors without having your significant other drag you through the mud for not wanting to have sex.
After my experiences of being a survivor in a relationship, I would rather not be in a relationship and not have to explain what happened to me just to have it thrown in my face when I say no/ when we break up.

masterpost/guideline for people studying russian
If you are self-studying Russian, congrats! It’s a gorgeous language of an interesting culture in which many great works were written!
FOR THE LANGUAGE:
the alphabet is not as scary as you think! do note, however, that russians typically write with the script (learn how to write ) and read in the print (here (song)). practice–write the entire alphabet out 5 times or more. here is the sandwich menu for McDonald’s in Russia–sound out the words; most of them are cognates. type in Russian with a phonetic keyboard here.
follow blogs like russiangrammar for any grammar advice you need!
buy the AMAZING 5000 Russian Words (2) book–it has 5000 words with conjugation/declensions AND stress, so you can pronounce them! Also has handy grammar charts and tips in back!
the best website resource i’ve seen by far is this. it has audio (!!!!!), vocab, lessons, and grammar tables. it’s great.
FOR THE CULTURE:
don’t skimp out on this! russian culture is interesting–it’s neither western nor eastern due to many centuries of what was essentially isolation.
bucknell university, tell us about russian history! nice thanks
here are traditions, so you don’t make a fool outta yourself! note on how to say good luck before a test – “ни пуха ни пера!”– it’s telling someone “neither down nor feathers” i. e., “I hope you fail.” the response is “ К чёрту!” which I believe means “Go to the Devil!” –basically the Russian version of “To Hell with that!”
want to watch the cutest cartoon in the world? there you go
