Caring about borders when you should feel intimidated by such beauty.
This is so beautiful
Wages still haven’t kept up with the increases.
Hey there. I’m too shy to talk to you, but I love your vibe and your musical talent is incredible! Hope your little gig went well at the cafe. ✌🏻
Hey thank you so much! It went wonderful to be honest. You must have seen my Instagram livestream message me if you want to talk I love meeting supporters. I hope you're having a wonderful year so far and may the change in seasons bring you positive change in your life
so at the bar in which I work, there’s an unofficial rule that all of our door staff must have names that start with D or rhyme with ‘doorman’, which has led to me befriending a trio of six foot four men with beards called Doorman Logan, Doorman Drew, and Doorman Dan.
now, let me tell you now that Doorman Dan is the absolute love of my life. I don’t care that he’s a decade older than me and has a fiance. you know when someone is so extraordinary or impossible to define that they’re simply referred to as ‘a character’? that’s Doorman Dan. now, before I get into his personality, let’s describe his appearance. imagine the most stereotypical Scandinavian person ever: tall, white-blond, strong-jawed. now, add a heavy South Walian accent and an orange jumper.
that’s Doorman Dan.
since meeting him last year, I’ve discovered:
he once had a dream that he had a tattoo that said ‘shit happens’ on his left arsecheek, so when he woke up he decided he had to fulfil the prophecy and got it tattooed on his arse by a bloke called Junkie Jeff at 9AM
he forgot to call his girlfriend for three months while he was in the army, and was completely unaware they had broken up until he wished her a happy Christmas and she responded with ‘what the fuck Dan’
accidentally married his army buddy in Vegas for thirty-six hours
he saw someone beating up a guy for being gay, and instead of jumping in and fighting back he decided to get absolutely bollock-naked and stand in front of the homophobe until he got freaked out and ran off
he has a millionare buddy who rings him up once a month for ‘mystery adventures’, one of which has resulted in Doorman Dan no longer being allowed inside any John Lewis shops
he is convinced the love of his life is not his fiancee, but a man named Ned. upon being asked who Ned is, he shrugged and responded with: “I’ll know when I meet him.”
he runs an Instagram account dedicated to his pet rabbits and refuses to let people into the bar unless they follow him
his fiancee booked a wedding venue before he even proposed. “I don’t even know if I’m invited, truth be told.”
when he caught a couple having sex in our loos, he didn’t want to intrude so he just gently knocked on the door and asked if they’d like a snack
he has created his own non-alcoholic cocktail called Doorman’s Sunrise because he feels left out being the only person on the dance floor without a drink when he’s patrolling the bar
I could honestly write a ten-season sitcom about him
I just discovered there is a small subreddit dedicated to google-translating (and actually dubbing, very professionally!!) the Star Wars movies and occasional SWR episodes from english into chinese and back into english again, making the subtitles change ridiculously, and it’s positively the most hilarious thing I’ve ever come across since I saw the LotR post about a similar thing, here are some highlights:
“My earbuds were in, but I wasn’t playing music. I needed to hear the world but didn’t want the world to know I was listening.”

“Weeping is not the same thing as crying, It takes your whole body to weep, and when it’s over, you feel like you don’t have any bones left to hold you up.”
— Sarah Ockler (via purplebuddhaquotes)
Stable genius alert.
The Mayans had mastered water pressure and had fountains and toilets as early as 750 AD. Aztecs had running water and sewage.
The Victorians In the mid-1800s were dying of cholera because they just dumped their raw shit in the river Thames. They wouldn’t shower for months at a time because they were afraid of the polluted water.
Incans had created aquaducts in the slopes of the vast Andes mountains to reach the emperor, cities and farmers who used agricultural terraces.
Mayans, Aztecs, and Incans were far more advanced than the savage Europeans.
My history Professor snapped on a class of 200 - 300 students at once because they kept writing in their assignments that Natives to North and South America were less advanced and less civilized than Europeans. She didn’t even bother to say how racist it was past one comment, she then literally listed all the things they said in their assignments and debunked them. In sum, Europeans came to the Americas because their civilizations were dirty, underdeveloped, starved, plagued, impoverished, and war-torn. So, the whole foundation of the idea of the supremacy of Europeans/white ppl and their countries and culture was all fabricated to justify their greed and the reality THEY needed resources, refuge, and knowledge to support themselves and their willingness to commit genocide, instigate conflict, and enslave to do so.
Europe legit spent most of human history as a backwater of civilization, and the only way they got “ahead” at all was through genocide, slavery, and biological warfare

i AM crying and so are YOU
using “i’m gay” to justify yourself and your decisions is good and fun when it’s to defend your tacky outfit or your 3am impulse-buys on amazon but don’t let me catch you using it to defend your racism and transphobia babes!
my heart hasn’t nutted in awhile
