A Very Bad Introduction to Shipping Culture on Tumblr

A Very Bad Introduction to Shipping Culture on Tumblr

(Update, 16 Oct. 2018: Literally the week after I wrote this, Symbrock (Venom) flew in and directly dethroned Klance from the #1 spot on the Fandometrics Top 20 Ships list for the week ending on the 15th of October. Needless to say this has completely destroyed the theories I formulated below. I am in shock, to be honest, but here is my original analysis nevertheless; I just needed to share the…

Kiss from a Rose: Seal

Kiss from a Rose: Seal

her kiss is a toxic hurricane

that lifts me into the clouds

and knocks the wind out of me and me into the wind.

i slide down the rainbow tasting

her bubble bubble bubblegum pop pop popping

a circus of clowns on wheels

frantically circling around

a pile of out-of-tune violins. jungle birds

dance in a feathered kaleidoscope

orange triangles and green corners stretch into

flying circles and

Language and Reality in Post-Classical Science and Postmodern Literature: Short Paper

Language is crucial to our understanding of the world around us.

The Native Americans whose languages are based on verbs and contain no…

Today’s entertainment review is going to be on the visual novel “Butterfly Soup”!

Essay: Distortion ('Metamorphosis' Timed Write)

Essay: Distortion (‘Metamorphosis’ Timed Write)

In the story “The Metamorphosis” by Franz Kafka, Kafka distorts Gregor’s voice, body, and behavior to show how the modern worker’s obsession with work can lead to isolation.

Kafka first distorts Gregor’s body in order to demonstrate how one’s obsession with their job isolates one from their sense of self. When Gregor discovers his new body, he “saw his little legs struggling with each other more…

Fandom: In Defense of the Winter Soldier

Hi everyone I just want to share an outline of my very academic essay intended to defend one of my favorite MCU characters

Claim: This entire post is just about how Bucky shouldn’t be held responsible for the actions he carried out as the Winter Soldier because he was LITERALLY BEING MIND CONTROLLED!!! HE HAD NO CHOICE IN THE MATTER!!! HE HAD NO CONTROL OVER HIS ACTIONS!!!

Girl on Fire: Alicia Keys

Girl on Fire: Alicia Keys

she has the ability to paint the air around her, leaving a trail of flimsy neon green that curls into the wisps of pink left behind from the lipstick in her smile. today she paints heavily with red, angry stomps staining the ground with smears of blood and fists punching a neat row of sizzling holes dripping with lava. i admire the smoke tailing her blazing hair and wonder sadly why her eyes have…

sometimes her eyes get glassy and you can see the moon reflected in her eyes. my sister describes them as moonstone but it doesn’t make sense because she’s feline. they should be cat’s eye.

sometimes her eyes get large and dark and round and i call them obsidian. my sister disagrees; they’re too soft to be obsidian.

sometimes her eyes are just yellow. when she steps into the light, they’re just…

Persuasive Speech: Music Education

Persuasive Speech: Music Education

Hello, everyone. Today, I would like to talk about music education. Many of you learned to play a musical instrument at a young age. Some of you may be familiar with the violin; some, clarinet; others, like me, the piano. However, many of you probably studied these outside of school. I believe that schools should put more focus on music education starting from elementary school.

Now, a lot of you…
