Me when getting better at art means I need to practice

But practicing means I need to make ugly art

And making ugly art makes me want to stop drawing

shout out to all the MEN going through a lot with no one to turn to because the world wrongfully taught you to mask your emotions. You matter. You’re important.

Grandmas were so right about puzzles and knitting and crocheting and solitaire and reading slow and slippers and baking and watching deer in the backyard send post

When the Nazi concentration camps were liberated by the Allies, it was a time of great jubilation for the tens of thousands of people incarcerated in them. But an often forgotten fact of this time is that prisoners who happened to be wearing the pink triangle (the Nazis’ way of marking and identifying homosexuals) were forced to serve out the rest of their sentence. This was due to a part of German law simply known as “Paragraph 175” which criminalized homosexuality. The law wasn’t repealed until 1969.

some of the most important health & fitness tips I wish someone told me when I started out:

modify your moves. Don’t worry if you can’t squat down all the way or can’t run for too long, you can only get better from here!

I don’t care what your hyperactive fitness instructor tells you - drink your water and take a break if you need it. you are not a machine. don’t destroy your health trying to get fit

protein and carbs are your friends

don’t ask random blogs on tumblr serious health questions you could look up or ask a doctor

don’t try to match your instructor’s pace during a workout. It’s form, not speed. Do not compete with them. 10 good lunges > 20 sloppy ones

don’t have weights? Find something heavy - a textbook, water bottles, whatever works for you

IF YOU ARE HURT DO NOT WORK OUT

IF YOU ARE TIRED AND EXHAUSTED DO NOT WORK OUT

PUSHING YOURSELF TO “THE LIMIT” DOES NOT MEAN WORKING OUT UNTIL YOU’RE READY TO THROW UP

Always do a quick warm up and cool down

Treat yourself often

forget workout clothes. You don’t need Nikes and expensive yoga pants. An old tee shirt and some cheap gym shorts will do just fine

Stay hydrated

Trial and error. Success is a bumpy road

Do not compare your chapter one to someone else’s chapter 10

Fitspo posts and before & afters are great but remember you can be the same height & weight as someone and never look like them. You never know the full story behind that picture

Try not to measure your progress in strictly numbers

Calories do not reflect nutrition.

Peanut butter is higher in fat but are healthy fats

Fruits have natural sugar in them that your body needs DO NOT AVOID FRUITS

1200 calories is barely enough to survive

Please do not do just cardio alone

Quality over quantity. A 30 minute intense workout will always beat a half ass 2 hour elliptical workout

Try different things. You may like running, you may not. Maybe yoga, swimming, dance, hiking, etc. Try things out.

YOU WILL NOT BULK UP NO ONE ACCIDENTALLY BULKS UP

All you need is your body to work out. Don’t stress over gyms

Do it for YOU. Not the boys and the crop tops and the “stares”

Rest days are essential. Take as many as you need. Never skip a rest day, your body needs to heal

Losing weight does not guarantee happiness. It never does. Don’t put your other problems on hold to focus on your body, they’ll catch up with you ten fold later and it’s not fun

forbidden knowledge

[allycat015]

I want my future house to be filled with books and plants. I want the air to smell like a delicate mixture of vanilla and coffee. I want the golden light of the morning to drip past the curtains and make me feel warm—inside and out. I want the vague melody of a calm tune playing in the background. I want the peace of having my own space in the world, and having it be exactly what I want.

I relate to Charlie Weasley. I, too, would love to hang out with dragons.

Molly Weasley: Tell me everything you learned at school this year, dear!

Charlie Weasley: Learned about dragons.

Molly Weasley: Your class learned about dragons?

Charlie Weasley: I learned about dragons.

Charlie Weasley: I don’t know what everybody else was doing.

A Good Concept: 

Charlie Weasley, Rubeus Hagrid, and Newt Scamander, all sitting on a couch, watching How To Train Your Dragon.  

Every time Stoick the Vast appears on the screen, Charlie pokes Hagrid and says, “that’s you”
