I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP! March 30, 2019, I found a package on my doorstep with nothing written on it, meaning, there was no addresses or names to be found. Inside there was a notebook and a pencil. The notebook is completely filled. I think what was written in here was meant to be a whole ass book if I’m being honest. And that thought is really upsetting to me because somehow this ended up with me, and not the editor that it must have been going to. I feel terrible… after reading a few pages it is very obvious to me that someone poured a lot of time and effort into this and I have no way of figuring out who wrote it or who it was going to. I already threw out the box because it rained a lot the day before I saw it; the box was trashed and smelled like garbage. (Not about to bring that smell into my house…) Okay, this is the part where I need your help! Please reblog this, I don’t care who you are or how many followers you have, I need to know if they’re here and how this ended up with me. Also, If anyone knows a writer living in the Egg Harbor, New Jersey area who may have possibly sent their work to a publisher recently and/or owned a notebook resembling this one:
please contact me with any questions you have or information on who they are. I can’t do it without some help! SO PLEASE! HELP ME FIND THIS PERSON! I will be posting updates soon.
Hey people, so, this is kinda a last-ditch effort considering that I've got basically no people following me, but maybe some people will see it via the tags or something. Basically, I watched the documentary series "Don't F*ck With Cats" on Netflix earlier, and I just realised that, well, it was a lot heavier than I bargained for. I don't have any idea why I didn't just turn it off at the time. I've got slight anxiety/paranoia issues anyway, and this really isn't helping. My thoughts just keep drifting back to the documentary/the content of the documentary... Which is very dark. Animal abuse, serial killers... etc. Does anybody have any ideas on how to calm down and stop myself from freaking out over this/stop worrying about being murdered by a serial killer/stop my thoughts from drifting back to the documentary? Thanks so much to anybody that can help. :) PS: Please tell me if I missed any tags that would be suitable here/trigger warnings, or if my trigger warning tags aren't up to standard! (I heard that there are different conventions that change every so often, but I'm not up to date.)
Tony: I don’t want to screw this up. I’m scared, Stephen.
Stephen: I know, Tony. I am too. We aren’t perfect but we are learning and that’s the beauty in our specific journey.
Tony: ..together?
Stephen: Together.
HELLO AUTISM COMMUNITY!
I’m sorry, but I’ve gotta rant. The other day I was in New York, and I saw this billboard:
Look a little closer:
Yep, you’re seeing this right. Autism Speaks. On a billboard with Julia. Sesame Street has joined forces with our “pals” (and by pals I mean enemies that we wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole) over at Autism Speaks. Julia, a character who has been embraced and loved by the autism community, is now the face of Autism Speaks, an organization that has hurt our community more than it has helped. I am heartbroken. This character has made me, as an autistic person, so happy and gave me hope that autism is starting to become more accepted by society. And although I don’t speak for everyone in the autism community, I know that there are many people who felt the same way. But now that this character is the face of an ableist movement which pushes the idea that autism is a disease in need of a cure, that hope is gone. PLEASE reblog this to get the word out, whether you’re on the autism spectrum or not.
I’m looking to do a 1x1 Watch Dogs 2 RP with somebody. Preferably, the RP would involve both canon characters and OCs. Either Discord or Tumblr would be fine. Only requirements are as follows: - No one-liners.
- Warnings before long breaks (Over one week).
- Discussions before including themes that aren't already in the game (For example, graphic nudity, etc).
Contact me or interact with this post in literally any way to get my attention. :p
(This is where I’m really starting to regret both my URL and my profile picture, honestly.)
Tony “locked Wanda in her room”: Tony stark was on house arrest in the second iron man movie and somehow resisted the temptation to put coulson through a few floors of a compound. Kinda like a rational adult yeah?
