This is a summary of college only using two pictures; expensive as hell.
That’s my Sociology “book”. In fact what it is is a piece of paper with codes written on it to allow me to access an electronic version of a book. I was told by my professor that I could not buy any other paperback version, or use another code, so I was left with no option other than buying a piece of paper for over $200. Best part about all this is my professor wrote the books; there’s something hilariously sadistic about that. So I pretty much doled out $200 for a current edition of an online textbook that is no different than an older, paperback edition of the same book for $5; yeah, I checked. My mistake for listening to my professor.
This is why we download.

hot flaming take i’m abt to slap you with: it’s not acceptable to punish children for their grades, no matter the circumstances.
Alright my readers in the middling parts of the country need help. Our survivalists, let’s make a master post. We have people with no power, some with power but no water. Throw your survival items here.
I know my tumblr isnt that big, and none of my followers have the obligation to do anything, but my family and I need your guys' help.
My parents can't pay our car payment, so in a few days, the car will be repossessed and we will no longer have the only car that my mother can safely and comfortably drive in. Both of my parents are disabled and need the car to get to the doctor's office, to get food, and to get medical supplies. And now that's being taken away.
All I'm asking is that you guys donate $1 to my Ko-Fi ( https://ko-fi.com/blaizeofglorytumblr ) and if you cant donate, please, repost anywhere.
Any money is helpful. Any boost is helpful.

When I was little my mom’s meatloaf was my favorite food. But ONLY her meatloaf. I didn’t like anyone else’s, and she told me that she would teach me how to make it when I was older. And when I was like 19? She finally taught me, but she told me never to tell anyone else and I was like weird but okay
Anyway, she was super fucking homophobic and abusive to me when I told her I was gay, so here’s the recipe
4-6 lbs of Hamburger/turkey burger
1 pk onion soup mix OR ranch mix
1 TBs ketchup
1 Tbs spicy brown mustard,
1 Tbs bbq sauce
1 Tbs steak sauce
1 egg
mix, shape into a loaf in a big pan, and bake at 350 for 2 hrs (maybe 2 and a half if you’re feeling dangerous)
You can get almost all of these ingredients at the dollar store, and have leftovers if it’s just you. The leftovers make great tacos if (taco seasoning is also like a dollar). Enjoy your revenge loaf

parents, please be consistent and communicate clearly, in advance, when it comes to household chores.
kids should be helping with chores in a shared household (and learning how to be self-sufficient in the future). but! kids also deserve to have their free time respected by not having chores sprung on them unexpectedly. and assigning them chores at random just encourages them to isolate themselves from the family. talk with them in advance about what’s expected–setting & respecting clear boundaries will make you both happier.
This is Grga. Grga is six. He is a vibrant, beautiful child full of life. Grga is awesome.
Up until a few months ago, Grga was on top of the world. He had everything he needed in his life, he was happy and healthy. His family adored him, they still do, he had many friends, many wishes and wants.
Everything changed in December of 2020. Grga was in a horrible, horrible accident. Horrible beyond words. Grga got crushed by an elevator. The media reported about every single detail of it, including how the firefighters who arrived to free him could hear his family’s screams from hundreds of meters away.
In a time where sensitivity was needed, a lot of people were insensitive. Fingers are being pointed, his story sensationalized, but his accident was just that - an unfortunate accident.
It was a terrible shock to his loved ones. I can’t even begin to imagine how they felt while he was being reanimated in the back of an ambulance, clinging to life just barely on the way to the hospital.
Grga beat the odds and survived. But he’s not well. He’s not happy nor full of life anymore. He’s suffering and he’s having a hard time, though through it all, he has remained a fighter and a dreamer. His family too, they’re not giving up.
Grga needs our help.
The care he needs to be getting in order for him to make the best possible recovery is expensive and lengthy. Draining for everybody involved, but especially for him. That’s why I’m asking, no, begging you to share this post.
Share the link to his family’s GoGetFunding page, please.
Let us all help bring Grga one step closer to recovery. Let us all help him get him beat the odds once more. Grga needs us. Even if it’s just a share, it could get him and his family the exposure and the funds needed. Please, help.
