Kissinger had an assistant named Lawrence Eagleburger, which is possibly the most American name conceivable.

I hope everyone understands that they can just...up at watch Nosferatu (1922) for free on YouTube. Like it's not "Oh I wish I could watch it" You can.

running into a trans girl while you're out and about makes the entire miserable errand worth it, whatever it was. like glancing upward at just the right time to see a shooting star. I spot a trans flag and it sincerely ceases to matter that the bus is crowded and it rained unexpectedly and my shoes are soaked through and my headphones are dead. I am happy to be on that specific bus on that specific day, because you're there too.

I just watched the Shut Up I'm Talking episode with Dan and Phil and they spoke about tumblr in it. They said that it felt more hidden than other more public social sites and I have to agree. As a teenager I used my blog to scream into the void and obsess over One Direction and I always felt secure and not judged (at least too much)

I had forgotten how much I love this website. Thanks Dan and Phil for reminding me

honestly, the radicalizing event that made me ditch faux-ironic detachment is when I sent a hard-to-write sentimental message to someone I was (at the time) close with, and they sent the vomiting emoji back. it was like oh okay, that sucks. I am now of the opinion that it is 100x cooler and braver to be sappy with the people you care about.
