"Show them to me" was hotter than any sex scene you can't change my mind

Christelle Dabos is the master of slow-burn romance. She manages to make the reader feel all of the anticipation, uncertainty, pining and burning the main characters feel. The number of times I had to put away the book to scream into my pillow or squeeze the fabric of my shirt after reading some scenes with Thorn and Ophelia is a testament to her skills. Ophelia and Thorn's romance is reminiscent of that of Lizzy and Mr Darcy's in Pride and Prejudice in the way that most of it goes on inside their heads or during brief and tense conversations. Yet, I kept devouring chapter after chapter, hoping to see another one of their interactions.

So when we see the romance blossom and the characters admit their feelings for one another TO themselves (because they're dumb-dumbs and I love them), it's incredibly rewarding

TL;DR: Christelle Dabos is a queen and Ophelia and Thorn are my new OTP

This is only a fraction of the issues the world is facing. This is not to say that Muslim’s are only facing hardship, I am simply trying to raise awareness about these specific countries. This post doesn’t cover all of it. Our brothers and sisters in Syria, Iran, Iraq, Sudan, Somalia, Albania, Kurdistan and so many more are still suffering. ⁣These are beautiful countries that are masked by war and famine.

All I hope from each of you is that you learn something new each day. If you’re reading this right now it is likely you come from a place of privilege. Use that privilege to educate yourself and stay informed on the issues this world is facing today. ⁣

That FBI guy was so American he thought Vanya was Russian but no Russian in their right mind would call a girl Vanya because it's a boy's name (short for Ivan)

Oftentimes it is the only thing that helps me get out of bed in the morning

im always looking forward to breakfast and coffee, even after I have my breakfast and coffee I’m excited for the next day’s breakfast and coffee

Isn't it crazy that a small group of people are directly responsible for the death of thousands of people? They could've fucking prevented this. But they didn't fucking care and now this is what the survivors have to deal with. Grief, loss, destruction.

This is very important, please do not ignore this.

Watch the video till the very end please (the end is when the explosion goes off.)

I live in Lebanon and the fiercest explosion went off in the midst of Beirut today, killing off an ungodly amount of human beings (more and more people are dying as I write this) and injuring up to 5000 people whose cases are immensely critical. Today,, at approximately 6 pm, hospitals were completely torn to shreds, people have been buried underneath fallen buildings, fires have been ignited almost everywhere, blood staining the streets in an excruciating manner, in addition to people that flew and fell to the sea due to the impact of the explosion. And it is certainly worth mentioning the millions upon millions' worth of damages what with buildings and cars and stores. Plenty of people are missing, it's an overall mess that is quite frankly very traumatizing.

What Lebanese people have been undergoing in recent times:

Lebanon has been going through a major economical decline that grows worse and worse by the day. The prices have heightened and the salaries remain the same, scarcely anyone has the capacity of affording basic needs anymore. There has been an unfolding revolution the past year, and the lebanese society has been protesting against the humiliation thrust upon our lives due to our miserable excuse for a government, and though the streets bled with thrashing, screaming citizens fighting for their utmost basic human rights, that caused mere to no change in the way things go around here, in fact, it only made it worse. We're being provided with, metaphorically, a droplet's worth of water and nearly no electricity, a pregnant woman has even passed away recently due to a heat stroke (as there were no means of cooling off)

What caused the setting off of this explosion?

The ignorance, heartlessness, and overall brutality of the government and the people in control.

A critical amount of chemicals (2700 tons of ammonium and other nitrates) were left inside a ship along the port of Beirut, and though the people in charge of this transaction were warned that heat and perspiration have the capability of destroying the whole of Lebanon in ode to a massive explosion, they refused to do anything about it and left the chemicals in there for years on end.

Up until, surprise surprise, the explosion went off and devestated Lebanon almost entirely.

I don't have much followers, and I know that this post isn't going to magically heal what is unfolding in this, priorly gorgeous, magnificent country, but I truly hope with all my heart that you find it within yours to spread awareness on this topic so that it would be more widespread,, so that Lebanon gets the aiding it deserves and the people from outer places slap the 'big bosses' awake, or at least pressure them into resigning, whatever it takes to make this place sufferable, tolerable, somewhere you can picture yourself residing in.

Lebanon is a place of infinite traditions, diversity, creativity, joy, and love. Most of the people here are open-hearted and wholesome. We all deserve far better.

My heart aches for the people that have passed away today, and I shall pray for the ones stuck in hellish suffering.

This is important.

Oh, I have to pass my exams and decide what to do with my life you say?No, I would rather daydream that I'm in Canada going to film school with my imaginary boyfriend who respects me

Also me:

I've waited for the second season of The Umbrella Academy partly because of the characters and the plot, but also I just wanted that DELICIOUS FUCKIN SOUNDTRACK YEEEAAAH

I WAS NOT READY FOR THE FIRST SEVEN MINUTES OF THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY SEASON 2

THEY HAD NO RIGHT

I'M A BISEXUAL I'M IN DANGER

I'm torn between binging The Umbrella Academy in one sitting and savoring it one episode at a time

Matthias and Nina's relationship dynamic in Six of Crows can be summed up in these lyrics:

Well, tell me do you hate me

Or do you wanna date me?

It's kinda hard to tell

'Cause your eyes are looking crazy

- Saint Motel, "Van Horn"

Forgot I had a Tumblr again

here’s a video

I wish I'd started picking up hobbies before my social anxiety started because now I can't even learn to ride a bike or rollerscate because I MIGHT FALL OVER IN PUBLIC AND DIE OF EMBARRASSMENT

Excuse me, if they don't put every single innuendo Jesper makes at Wylan in the show, i might just start to throw hands...

iconic moments that Must end up in the show:

“i. should. let. you. die”

jogs the liver

“i’m right here, father” (”has he been taking lessons from nina?” “maybe he’s a natural”)

“have a long trip down”

jesper’s oil presentation

Hufflepuff: the internet is great because it fulfills my constant need to be alone while recieving attention from people at the same time

God dammit I wanna learn archery

Okey Google where do I find a crossbow

The fact that my arms are now flaccid does not negate this statement

White people saying "Don't you dare call me a racist" is so ridiculous.

If you're called out, there's little chance you are innocent. Ask what you did wrong. That's how you grow. Don't get all defensive and don't go hiding in your shell. People of color know better than you if you're being racist, simply because they're the ones who experience it.

Btw I'm white, that's just me getting annoyed at such people
