Why has nobody ever taken me aside and explained to me that the pink robin exists
So round. Such fluff.
Smol and angry
I canāt believe I went so long associating my name with boring North American robins instead of this glam puffball.

Why is this Robin such a fluorescent pink and yet looks so badass! Itās got such a ādonāt mess with me faceā
The Walking Dead Reborn
Angela Kang has made me care about all these characters more in one episode than Gimple did in the whole of the previous 3 seasons. Ep 9.15 tears your heart out
how did these people manage to take over the world
Yeah but when youāre used to temps of 15 degrees being summer weather it can hit hard Last summer we got excited because we had a whole week at 18 degrees
this morning NASA abandoned their mars rover Opportunity (aka Oppy) because it (she) got hit by a storm on Mars and it knocked her camera and wheels out and her last words to the team were āmy battery is low and it is getting coldā. I know sheās a machine but Iām devastated. Oppy is the one who discovered water on Mars. RIP oppy ily space baby
Is this a movie in the making? We will get to Mars and find a psychotic Oppy hiding behind the rocks bumping of astronauts one by one !!ā You left me to die you bastardsā
4x12 |Ā I never really let you go Just thought that you should know
It still hurts! Why Gimple WHY!!!!!!
The last thing you ate + the first thing you see when you look to your left is the title of your pretentious lifestyle blog.
Right now, mine would be called Pizza and Prints.
Taco Bell and Couch Cushions is, like, the opposite of a pretentious lifestyle blog. It would practically be a parody of pretentious lifestyle blogs.
Soup and Window really depends on contextā¦..is it a Microsoft stan blog? Is it emo? Or is someone having a Bad Patch and we all need to start sending them gifs of puppies?
Chinese Food and Chinese Food. I think Iām doing this wrong
Gingerbread To-Do List.
ā¦whoops
Actuallyā¦.ākit kats and a double ovenā is an EXCELLENT name for a pretentious lifestyle blog. (If only they were my ovens!)
Dunks and the Road.Ā I am so ok with this.
Ice Phone. This sounds like a rapperās name. I dig.
Mashed potatoes and blinds.
Oatmeal and Pillows.
Chinese Food and My Girlfriend
This sounds like an aesthetic blog.
Costco rotisserie chicken And Couch
Aldi Chocolate and Arabic-word-I-donāt-know-but-itās-a-scarf

9x04: First Thoughts/Themes
Wow. Just wow. That episode was amazing. I have so much to talk about, I hardly know where to begin. As usual, Iāll talk about broad themes today and then go into details tomorrow.
***As always, spoilers abound below for 9x04. Donāt read until youāve watched. Youāve been warned!***

Good analysis only thing I would add is we saw the results of what happens when vengeance overrides justice with the Oceansideās and the Saviours. Cyndy killed Arat because of what Maggie did in executing Gregory. Trouble is the executions pushed the saviours to feel threatened and abandon the bridge and the very tenuous treaty. I totally agree with you that Negan and Gregory should have died for what they did but itās true you canāt go on about everyone having a say and then do what you want anyway like Rick and Maggie did and really as Maggie is about to do in killing Negan while I totally understand why again she isnāt thinking of justice onlu vengeance .
OMGGGGG! JUST GOT BACK FROM BTS CONCERT IN LONDON!Ā
I have to write all this down before I forget anything!!!
Okā¦ first of allā¦letās get the bit thatās a little sad out of the wayā¦ Kookie was injured. Luckily, apparently it is nothing too serious. He hurt himself during rehearsals and even though it wasnāt a bad injury he was advised that he shouldnāt dance to prevent making it worse. You could see on his face how disappointed he was that he could perform as he usually does. During his ending ment, he was basically apologising for not being able to give us his usual level of performance and the crowd all in unison started chantingĀ āItās OK! Itās OK!ā in Koreanā¦ and he burst into tears!!!! I cried. Seriouslyā¦ he was so precious and sweet and his energy really is that gentle and innocent when you see him in real lifeā¦ you just feel so protective of him. And his performance was absolutely amazing regardless. His vocals were stellar! And he did get up and walk around for a couple of songs! Just all in allā¦ he did an amazing job even with his injury!!!Ā My heart was aching for him all the way through thoughā¦ The boys kept going to him during each performance to try and cheer him up (which was adorable!) and at the end during his ment, Jimin told us to shoutĀ āWe love you Jungkook!ā to cheer him up so he doesnāt cry laterā¦ :((((((
Onto less sad thingsā¦ Speaking of what theyāre like in real lifeā¦ Itās been said by many a fan before, but now having experienced it myselfā¦ I can tell you it is 100% trueā¦ They are even more beautiful in real life!!! Likeā¦ I literally kept marveling over how attractive they all areā¦ itās not normalā¦ it seems surreal (tbh the whole experience was surrealā¦).Ā
Likeā¦ Hobiā¦ Hobi??? Heās sooooo freaking hot!!! Like, if heās not already your bias or bias wrecker before you go to a concertā¦ he will seriously mess with your bias list!!! Heās crazy attractive in real lifeā¦ not even just in terms of looksā¦ itās his whole vibe. Heās justā¦ soooo incredibly coolā¦ and just sexyā¦Ā
And then thereās Taehyungā¦ okā¦ Iāve said it many times before that I sometimes question how he can be human when heās that beautiful and etherealā¦ but how I felt before is nothing to how I feel now. His beauty literally leaves you stunned. I watched Singularity with my mouth hanging open just is awe of him. He really seemed like some kind of dark fairy prince luring you away to worldā¦ with intense seductionā¦ because omg! that was a freaking seductive performance!!!!
But seriously, theyāre all even more gorgeous than you already think they are! Thereās something really masculine about Jiminās face that I donāt think comes through in pictures and videos normally but you can see it in concert somehowā¦ heās ridiculously attractive! And he was just as flirty and sexy and hair sweepy tonight as ever!!! Serendipity is so entrancingā¦ at the end he sort of stopped and shyly smiled up at everyone and it was such an attack!!! He absolutely knows what heās doing!!!Ā
And Yoongiā¦ heās so adorableā¦ his smile is everything!!! And he does these cute little expressions that just hit you right in the chestā¦ Seesaw was incredible!!! His voice you guysssssā¦. his voiceeeeeeeeee! During his ment he said the O2 Arena was too small (a king only speaking facts) and told us that next time they come to London theyāll perform somewhere bigger (sidenote: they promised to come back to London next year)ā¦ so next yearā¦ BTS Wembley Stadium?
Okā¦ Namjoon totally has an English accent now. Seriously, heās gone full English. Itās sooooo cuteeeeee!!! He was also incredibly gorgeousā¦. like just soooo handsome and his energy is so warm and likeā¦ sturdy? Idkā¦ he just seems so reliable and in control. Seriouslyā¦ Namjoon is really THAT guy!!! And his performance of Love was beautifullllll!!! The fan chants were deafening! When he did his ending ment he spoke about how sometimes bad things can happen and you shouldnāt blame yourself and he was really talking to Jungkook and omgggg I was already emotional and he reopened the wound with that one! But seriouslyā¦ heās so charming and just seems soā¦ genuinely niceā¦ Iām telling you guysā¦ Namjoon has that Mr. Right energy!!!
Okā¦ so my #1 biasā¦ Kim Seokjinā¦ omg what can I even say??? Heās so handsome in real life itās insane! He had his fringe down, so no foreheadā¦ but like, in real life, heās super devastating even without forehead!!! Thatās why he doesnāt expose it too muchā¦ heās already killer without it!!! He did his famous flying kiss and intense stares into the camera and his voice when he speaks English is sooooooooo cuteeeeeeeeee!!!!! And Epiphanyā¦ You guysā¦. you guysssssā¦ I cried. I really cried. It was sooooo beautiful; his voice, the song, the musicā¦ the voices of all the ARMYs singingĀ āIām the one I should love in this worldā. I actually got weak in the knees and had to sit down and just take it inā¦ silently crying. I justā¦ I love him even more nowā¦ my heart just thinking about him in concert againā¦ eeeeee!!!
Anywayā¦ this is probably all Iām be blogging about for the foreseeable future but these are just the first things springing to mind that I had to get out immediately after I got homeā¦ before doing anything else I had to write these feelings down so hopefully Iāll never forgetā¦ dreamy sighsā¦ā¦.
Totally agree. Best concert Iāve ever been to . We were bummed cos we could only get tickets in the roof! But it didnāt matter the whole thing was amazing atmosphere unbelievable I lost my voice singing and screaming !!! Love to kookie we know the guys give their all and we want them to be healthy. Tbh they could have stood there and it would still ha e been amazing. Charisma by the bucketload !
And once again American TV shows how crap it is by focusing on the crowd when BTS is performing! I wanted to see BTS I wanted to see the the choreo of their new single not some random fan!! !!!
weāll drink up our grief and pine for summer and weāll buy beer to shotgun and weāll lay in the lawn and weāll be good
Donāt make me cry ! It still hurts
I just found this out in the comments of a friends Facebook post. Itās been confirmed that two people have died already.
Dated April 17 2018
yeah guys this isnāt old we had a recall at work like dont eat the romaine
Or eggs, if you hadnāt seen the news about the 200 million egg recall due to salmonella. (4/20/18)Ā
Stay safe yāall
Why don't you vaccinate your chickens against salmonella?Ā
Why are you avoiding the letter 'i' in your novel about Eurydice?
āA few reasons (and also itās definitely not going to be a novel; Iām not sure I have the skill or the patience to write a novel length lipogram!)
Firstly, Iām having a very, very tough timeā at the moment (break-up!! Family illness!! Stressful job!! PhD admin!!) and so I thought that giving myself an unusual challenge would take my mind off things a bit. Historically, if I have something that I can kind of throw myself into, something relatively low stakes, I can sort of parse the bigger problems a bit better. Usually, I would sink my teeth back into my current big project, but thatās a retelling of the myth of Medea and one of the major plot points is the slow decline and eventual end of a relationship, so for obvious reasons Iām taking a bit of a break from that, just until itās not too close to the bone.
So, knowing that I wanted to do something different, something that would be a challenge but in a fun way, I decided on doing a lipogram - I actually got the idea when my friend posted about their broken keyboard, meaning they couldnāt type the letter e! That led me to remember the existence of Georges Perecās A Void and Ernest Vincent Wrightās Gadsby, which both omit the letter āeā. I remembered that in A Void, the absence of the āeā was a plot point, with the plot of the novel itself revolving around the conspicuous absence of something, and so leading on from that I wanted to write a lipogram using a different letter, becauseĀ āeā has famously been done twice, and who can compete with that? Knowing that I wanted to make the absence of the letter stand for something within the narrative, I thought that the letter which stood for the most, outside of its function as a letter, was āiā. āIā is not just a letter. āIā is self. Itās found in the building blocks of how we refer to ourselves - I think, I do, I was - as well as in many of the most commonly used words in the language - in, it, is, -ing. I was interested in exploring what the complete absence of that letter would mean for a story. I knew that I wanted to retell a myth (because come on, Iām me) and I also knew that, in the vein of Here, the World Entire, I wanted to subvert the original story. In HtWE, the original heroic function of Perseus was darkened a bit, and I wanted to do something similar with another myth. So, I had a think about other mythical women, how their myths revolved around the notion of selfhood, and how I could turn them inside out to make the lack of āIā relevant.My first thought was to do something with the myth of Ariadne, but I couldnāt think of a way of changing the angle that wasnāt too close to the way Iām handling the myth of Medea in my other story, so I set that one aside. Iām already half writing a retelling of the myth of Cassandra (on hold until Medea is finished!) so that one was out, too. Echo was another one I thought of, but I couldnāt think of a new angle that was interesting enough to really hold my attention. And then I thought of Eurydice. I thought of how her whole story is Orpheus. How all she does, essentially, is pop her clogs and then languish in the Underworld until Orpheus comes down with his lyre and sings her to freedom. When I first had the idea for Here, the World Entire, my root thought was āwhat if Medusa didnāt want to turn people to stone?ā That was what sparked the rest of the plot; questioning the most commonly accepted feature of the source narrative. With the Eurydice story, I had the thought 'what if Eurydice didnāt want to go back with Orpheus?ā And from there, it kind of made sense. Knowing that I wanted to do something that incorporated the lack of the letter 'iā, it sort of came to me that it would make sense to retell Eurydiceās story in the world of the living. In the source narrative, sheās a woman who dies and is brought back to life. Thatās really all she is; something for Orpheus to save. Like Medusa, who functions as something for Perseus to overcome. Not really a character, but a plot point. I was interested to see how I could change that, give her more of a role, using the lack ofĀ āiā as an asset and not a hindrance. So, the challenge became defining her in the absence of selfhood. Without 'Iā, who was she?
And so, in order to incorporate the meaning of noĀ āiā and challenge the notion that she wanted to return with Orpheus, she became a woman who was suffering from a lack of agency in the world above. She had no mother, lived with her father, and was married off to Orpheus without having any say in the matter. She has no idea who she is, because sheās not allowed to be someone. She knows what she wants, which is freedom and control, but has no way to get it within the world in which she lives. The lack of the letter 'iā represents the key idea of the story: I am not here. There is no me. I am not. And so when she finds herself in the Underworld, free from the constraints of the world above, thatās the moment at which she finds herself in my version. Thatās the moment at which she can suddenly do as she likes.
Thereās still no use of the letter 'iā throughout, because sheās still not here; quite literally, as sheās dead. But her role within the story becomes a lot more active; she starts doing things, rather than having things done to her, and although the 'iā might still not be there, she is.
This is hands down the most beautifully sad thing Iāve read and I canāt wait to see the finished product.
Thank you!! I really hope that the final story has a kind of hopefulness to it and isnāt just a litany of tragedies. Mostly because that phrase has two āiās in it.
Wow!!
do you ever think about the fact that bethās lasts words to daryl wereĀ āiām not gonna leave you!ā do you ever just. think about that
Stop!

Summary: The world has gone to hell, the dead are walking, and Daryl Dixon is focused purely on keeping himself and his brother alive - until he performs a possibly foolish act of rescue, which will have consequences far greater and further-reaching than he ever could have imagined.
Taking final leave of Atlanta, Daryl and Beth hit the road for the farm. The road, however, has other ideas, and supplies some very unexpected meetings.
These people arenāt a gang of damn bandits. Theyāre in trouble. Something has happened, and itās not good.
And for the first time, he really does feel like it might be best to turn right the fuck around and walk in the other direction as fast as he possibly can. Because yeah, a group of people in a literal and figurative jam - maybe Merle isnāt wrong.
In trouble, like she was. Trouble times ten.
Except then the Chinese kid is raising his head and blinking, his face tensing, shoving himself off the carās hood heās leaning against and pointing. āUh, Dale? Thereās. Thereās a guy.ā
And they do it again! And I'm hooked once more.Ā Ā
