Do you have any idea how long I’ve had this queued? Any idea? A year. A fucking year. I don’t even use my queue ever. Ever. This is the only thing I’ve EVER queued. I’ve had this queued for a year so I don’t forget it.
The Colosseum teems with unruly members of the plebeian class. As the sun beats down upon their heads, a riotous energy gathers and surges through the gathered masses. “Masterposts, masterposts, masterposts,” they begin to chant in unison. The charioteer’s horses stamp their feet in agitation as the chant grows louder, reverberating around the stone walls …

Bitches Get Riches: setting realistic expectations since 2016!
We have a letter from a reader today! And it’s a keeper. Bitches, what can I do to help my parents be smarter with their money? My dad is in his fifties, and he has really bad money habits. He makes a decent amount, but he clearly lives beyond his means. He drives a luxury …
In celebration of vetrnætr and fall I thought I'd share my favorite loaf recipe to leave out for the dísir! No matter what holiday you celebrate in autumn(if any at all) this is a great recipe for the season.♡
♡Ingredients♡
21 oz. of pumpkin, peeled, de-seeded, and cubed
2 tbsp. of sunflower or veggie oil
3.5 oz. unsalted butter
10.5 oz. soft light brown sugar
18 oz. almond flour(any flour works)
.5 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. Ground connamon
.5 tsp. each of ginger, nutmeg, cloves
.5 tbsp. vanilla
1 large red apple, cored and chopped
♡Directions♡
Preheat the oven to 100°C/200°F
Butter up and line a 32oz. loaf tin with waxed paper
Place the pumpkin in a roasting tray and drizzle with the oil, cover the top with foil and roast for 25 minutes.
Remove the pumpkin from the tray and set aside to cool.
While cooling cream the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
Then blend the pumpkin in a food processor until smooth. Mix it in with the eggs, and sugar, butter mixture.
Stir in the vanilla, all the dry ingredients, and the apple. Place the mixture in the loaf tin and smooth the top. Bonus: sprinkle some of the pumpkin seeds you removed on top.
Bake for 50 minutes. Remove the tin from the oven and once cool, remove the loaf from the tin to a cooling rack.
Sprinkle with honey, icing sugar, or cinnamon when served.
all my life I’ve somehow only ever seen the gifs of this. I never even knew that the pumpkin man was dancing to the Ghostbusters theme. This whole thing is so much better than I ever could have expected from the gifs omg

Here’s a reminder that if you have spare money please donate to the production of Diné Bi Na'alkid Time, a future puppet show dedicated to teaching kids the Navajo language. The gofundme has been up for 16 months and still hasn’t met its goal of $50,000.
i feel horrible asking and i am so scared that no one will hear my plea. i only have 134 followers. I am relying on reblogs but these posts are so rarely reblogged without a major following. please please please reblog this. it is a matter of life and death. i am trying everything. if anyone has advice when it comes to selling nudes or selling anything, please message me. I am in a very desperate situation where I am facing potential hospitalization if I can’t afford my medications this month and transportation to doctor’s clinics. I do not have money for food. I am praying someone will hire me to work from home since I have no transportation, and public transportation is not an option since the stops are so far away from me. I spend all of my time applying for jobs and I haven’t received a single call.
I am relatively young but in final stage renal failure. I have a higher chance of survival IF I can recieve proper medical care AND LIVING ASSISTANCE in a different state. Get me OUT of Mississippi.
The long post w the good explanation is being shared but not inspiring much help. So, I simplified it.
My illness is straight up fatal. Not gonna beat around thatBush, anymore. I seem desperate for help because I AM desperate for help.
My nephrologist has seen enough improvement in my kidney function, lately, to believe someone my age (early 30s) might have a longer life WITH PROPER AND FREQUENT MEDICAL ATTENTION. Sadly, that just isn’t an option where I live.
Please, if you can help me with moving expenses (even just a couple of bucks) I would be grateful. I’m sinking fast in Mississippi and now my doctors are giving me too much hope to ignore. I wanna get out of this situation and I’m working my fatigued, brain-foggy ass off to make it out of here.
If I can undo the damage my heart failure caused to the rest of my body, I want to. I don’t want to spend another month KNOWING what I should be eating, what medicines I should be taking, what tests and treatments I should be getting… and receiving almost none of it because Mississippi lawmakers think people like me have somehow earned slow, painful deaths.

pumpkin spice latte - mysteriously always on trend, dreams of going to Paris, secretive whispering, chronically stressed, fancy headphones, watching the rain with a friend, seems innocent but isn’t, binge watching halloween movies

apple cider - crafty, actually works out, unique music taste, feels like they have too much to do, goes to indie festivals, wears patterned socks, changing hair colors, infectious laughter, can’t let their happy facade down, cookies and milk
cappuccino - kind of overworked, the feel of cold fingers around a hot mug, oversized shirts, talkative, exhilarating adrenaline rushes, befriending the barista, foggy mornings, desperately tries to be organized, tears at 2 am
hot chocolate - a hugger, not taking any bullshit, fiercely loyal, singing in the shower, oversized sweaters, rich colors, difficult to read, wants a Vespa, bonfire nights, polaroids, soft spoken, has a thousand nicknames, introverted
