It costs nothing to scroll past, click off, swipe away -whatever.
It costs you nothing, to not post that comment.
I absolutely hate when I look in the comments on someoneā€™s video or post and STRANGERS are trying their hardest to hurt them- itā€™s especially bad when the creator has done nothing to deserve this.
If you think itā€™s okay to comment something cruel, violent, insulting ect to someone just livingā€¦ Iā€™m so sorry your life is so vile you feel the need to spread that. But they donā€™t deserve it!!

Alyss: I donā€™t think you three need to drink any more coffee.
Gilan: but Alyss, drinking coffee cures depression
Horace and Will simultaneously: more espresso, less depresso.
*all three clink their coffee pots*

I will be just minding my own business, looking at the internet, and Iā€™ll see something about the Raven cycle. There is something so comforting about those books, every time I think of them I feel the need to reread them- but itā€™s a physical feeling, a pulling in my chest.
Maggie Stiefvater created characters and a world that felt so real; at the time I read them, more so than the world around me.

Actually I think Iā€™m just going to avoid tumblr because Iā€™m being surrounded by prn bots and have seen some absolutely vile things today ā€¦. This is a real problemā€¦. I donā€™t know what to do so Iā€™m just gonna go ā€¦. Thanks to all the bullshit Iā€™m gonna find somewhere else to start a book blog

Sup so I started this blog and havenā€™t had time to really read much this year.
But I reread Rainbow Rowellā€™s ā€œCarry Onā€ and ā€œWayward Sonā€ so that I can hopefully read the third book soon!!
Hereā€™s a painting of Simon and Baz (with reference) that Iā€™ll post to my art Instagram account: dirt_empress

ā€œHalt and the haltlingsā€ adorable I love it
gathering shenanigans
it is customary for rangers to hide and try to ambush other rangers, especially older and more experienced ones. it rarely works.
one time, every single ranger managed to hide without being seen nor seeing anyone else. they all stood completely still for an entire hour before an apprentice let out a sneeze and all hell broke loose
thereā€™s always one or two rangers assigned the unofficial ā€œapprentice watchingā€œ duty. theyā€™re positioned at a distance, keeping a watchful gaze to learn what mischief the apprentices get away with. successfully getting away with stuff like eavesdropping, pranking, or stealing food under the nose of the entire corps earns the apprentice a lot of respect
before Gilan, Will and Halt arrive, everyone adds a spoonful of honey to their coffee, cursing under their breath at how delicious it is. It all started one day when someone walked in the commanderā€™s tent and caught Crowley red-handed. Everybody confessed to adding the honey in secret. Chaos ensued. Naturally, once Halt and the haltlings arrive, itā€™s back to being ā€œstrange, tasteless sludgeā€.
recently, everyone has taken to wordlessly hum ā€œOld Joe Smokeā€ while doing menial tasks. Halt is not amused, and eyes them all suspiciously.
