- Harper Lee, Go Set A Watchman

It’s 12:40am. My mom is mad at me. I’m eating a bowl of Nutella in the dark by the light of my phone flashlight. Life is good.

Ya know, before I had tumblr I had so many tumblr-worthy thoughts. Now, all I do is read shitty fandom themed headcanons and complain.

You either die young or live long enough to watch your hardcore punk friends become a scrunchie uwu girls

Oh, don’t mind me, just practicing my accidental over sharing

On today’s edition of bad ideas: it’s 12:15 and I have decided to play Minecraft

Catch me at 7 am tmr with sleep deprivation and a shit ton of diamonds

Marvel give them the gay you cowards

Writing Help; Synonyms For "Said" (speech words)

Something I struggle with so much is finding other words to use instead of "said". (One thing I wish I'd known was that you can sometimes use a verb like "glared" to replace said. It all just depends on the context) Now that I've spent most my day compiling as many as I could think for my own writing, I decided why not share? And now I'm posting this list. Hope this helps!

If you call pedophilia a kink please unfollow me and never talk to me again

So do you ever zone out so hard you question everything but know you need to be paying attention so you’re like “hey bro, now is not the time to be questioning the sanctity of humanity” or like “dude, can we not focus on how we wouldn’t be here if not for some random walking fish?”
