What happens if you fall in love with a writer? →
karenfelloutofbedagain:
Lots of things might happen. That’s the thing about writers. They’re unpredictable. They might bring you eggs in bed for breakfast, or they might all but ignore you for days. They might bring you eggs in bed at three in the morning. Or they might wake you up for sex at three in the morning. Or make love at four in the afternoon. They might not sleep at all. Or they...

Volunteers travel from afar to work with the children Dramatic Need supports in Rwanda and South Africa. Whilst an exciting opportunity, many experience a much deeper reality while working with these troubled and disadvantaged youth. A lot happens in the few weeks volunteers share with our students: their artform becomes redefined from the new context, their hearts are pulled and...

Anonymous asked: nobody cares about your fucking uterus. get over it. Ron Paul is not taking away anyone’s right to reproductive freedom. This country is fucked in so many ways and you can’t look past a wedge issue like this that will NEVER effect anyone directly.

Today I’m wearing my Captain America Star tee shirt, and my Adidas Wings, which basically makes me a hipster superhero (lol-ing at myself here, of course).
I got in the tube, and there was a group of schoolboys waiting to go on a school trip. Three of them saw me and started flailing excitedly…
This is the story of how Marie won at life. It is awesome.
