This is Goodbye

I'm leaving Tumblr. I have come to the decision. People have been treating me poorly for multiple reasons. One for my sexuality, I'm asexual. I'm leaving. It hurts too much to log on to think people I thought would accept me, don't.

and he never actually said "I love you too" to Hanna. Just like with Spencer. Spencer got a smirk and a chuckle, and Hanna got a kiss. There was no indication he was still feeling something for Hanna, only on his part. Basically they made Caleb be a stereotypical typical man whore

it confuses me when people say that haleb’s reunion wasn’t realistic because we didn’t get to see them redevelop feelings for each other or fall back in love……………. they never fell out of love with each other?? that was the point of the scene?? hanna, and i quote, said, “i never stopped loving you.”

If Toby Dies

Okay so lately there's been a rumor Toby's going to die in 7x10, which is also the same episode the Spoby kiss might happen. If this happens, I quit. I know true fans are supposed to stay even if their ship gets sunk, but the writers have slaughtered Spoby since season 2. First -A was like "break up with Toby or imma kill him lol". Then Toby was fucking -A and then Mona faked his death (still salty over that). Then everything was running smooth until, of course, stuff had to happen. Basically Toby was having Spencer lying to her friends about his mom and their we're all these trust issues. Then he becomes a cop and they are fighting for most of season 5 & 6. Spencer cheats on him twice. So you are going to tell me that the couple who probably got the worst shit from parents, -A, and the police are going to never get back together. You are going to tell me, all the other damn ships get together but my OTP won't. Here's a note to the writers: Stop making Spencer a strong character and giving her so many problems. Stop making -A threaten her relationships, unlike the other liars (okay all of them had but only like once for each). I'm sick of how fan served it is. I want Spoby. I want my OTP to get back together but without cheating. I was the couple that made me feel like I could relate to, because I am smart and an outcast at my school, and that I could confide in it. I want it okay. I swear to god, if you think about killing Toby off, or making me think he's dead again. I'm out.

I really need to stop getting my hopes up. It just gives me disappointment

[books-knowledge-power-blog]

No the bigger question is: why is it so hard not finding angsty spoby fanfics. I just want fluff

??????why is it so hard to find good spoby fanfiction????????

[books-knowledge-power-blog]

I have an idea for an fan fiction about Spoby! Spencer has an relapse and Toby and Yvonne see her taking a lot of pills and Toby tries to talk her out of it

THIS MADE ME SOB

AN: So I’m exhausted and was supposed to be asleep like two hours ago but I couldn’t stand not getting this out as soon as possible so here.

It’s probably filled with errors. Bear with me. And I got the request a while ago so it’s techniquely set after 5x04, I think.

And yeah, it’s freaking long. Be excited about that.

Prompt: Alison makes Spencer jealous in regards to Toby. 

Disclaimer: I own nothing but my story.

Spencer’s entire life seemed to be a series of very delicate life lessons sometimes. From her mom, she’d learned to never show weakness, that it was never alright to cower in the face of a struggle, no matter how large or much she wanted to and to never expect to be coddled. Her father had taught her, through example, that appearance is always first priority, what others think of you matters more than what you think of yourself and pretty lies are always better than ugly truths. From her sister, she learned that winning means more than loving and happiness is how many awards you’ve received, how many plaques have your name on them and who is bragged about at the club.

She had learned a long time ago that she would never be the Golden Child. She’d never measure up, no matter how many pills she popped, no matter how many extra hours she worked, no matter what smile she plastered onto her blemish-less complexion, no matter how much she wanted and dreamed and craved to be perfect, she’d learned that it wasn’t her and it would be never be her.

Alison had taught Spencer a long time ago that she’d always be in someone’s shadow. She would never be anyone’s number one.

Except Toby’s. Always would she be his first priority, his love, his life, his family. He was the silver lining, the one decent thing in a black cloud of a life, the only treasure she’d ever captured, the only good thing in her world.

But Spencer had learned a long time ago, that the good in life will never last.

Whatever you choose to lean on will fall under your weight.

This concept was never as crystal clear as it was inside The Hastings’ Lake-house one night with the girls. It was stormy, it was cold and it was scary. Earlier that day the girls had decided to take a break from chasing -A for five minutes to come out here, to the Hastings’ private residence, to relax and remember why exactly they’d all become friends in the first place. As the day wore on, the storm began to hit, slowly at first then all at once and not one of the girls wanted to rough a drive back to Rosewood or risk one of their loved ones driving on the slippery pavements to get them.

So the five girls continued their bonding inside the lake-house.

“You go next, Aria,” Emily urged, as the girls hit their third round in the game of Truth. Truth, an ironic game for these girls to be playing, was alternate version of a Truth or Dare, without the latter. The girls hadn’t played it since before Ali went missing, when it became crystal clear what truth she had not been telling.

The game, though seemingly harmless, did have some hurtful qualities.

“Alright, Spence,” Aria directed, apparently already given her question some thought beforehand. “Who is one person who you wished you could have met?”

The question, though simple enough, brought out an answer none of the girls expected. They all thought she’d say something like Cleopatra, George Washington, Mary, Queen of Scotts, or someone else that you’d probably only hear about in a history class. The answer none anticipated was, “Toby’s mom, Marion Cavanaugh.”

Southern Slang

"Bless Your Heart" It either means you are so stupid they feel bad for you or you kiss their ass

This is honestly my favorite scene. Yes, it broke my Spoby heart. But for once, Veronica wasn't a distracting mother. All through the series, her parents were A+ students. However, in this scene, Spencer says "Mommy," and Veronica doesn't give her a look of immaturity. She walks up to her and hugs her. It was a start to a beautiful relationship

Cisphobia is real. Do you know how many times people have told me I don't have a right to feel sad because I'm white? Or that I'm middle class? Or that my parents are divorce. Do you know how many people have told me on this damn site I'm not valid? I'm asexual, but since I mainly just attract to males, I am not valid. People have told me that I'm too privileged to have anxiety or depression.

But guess what, I've been bullied for the way I look and speak. I've been cyber bullied by people because I am "privileged". When I was in 7, a friend's twin called me a white slur (he was black) that was offensive. I didn't know what it meant, but the friend told me he was ashamed of his brother.

People tell me I don't have a right to feel upset. But almost every person has discriminated against straights because they think it doesn't exist.

I don't care if you think "reverse racism" isn't real. Racism is racism. Racism is when a black male threaten's my friend's white father because he's white. Racism is when a black male tells white women they are sluts and whores. It might not meet news headlines, but this has happened in my town. And don't you dare tell me they are rude to whites because of how whites treated them 200 years ago.

On average, you have a 1 in 18,989 chance of being murdered

A trans person has a 1 in 12 chance of being murdered

The average life span of a cis person is about 75-90 

The average life expectancy of a trans person is 23-30 years old

75% of people killed in anti LGBT hate crimes are poc

Think about this the next time you go crying over “cisphobia” and “reverse racism”
