No more white Christmas in Europe IS a strong indicator of climate change and that's one of the ways how us, European, can SEE it. Because white Christmas is "traditional", because that's how we picture Christmas in our head, because snow used to just be around Christmas time, same with New Year I guess, they're just like, timestamps for which we all know there's supposed to be snow. (for me the timestamp was my birthday, because it's around those times and as a kid I always had a thick layer of snow for my birthday, and I loved snow, I can tell you, it stopped being a special day the first time there wasn't snow as a birthday present).
It's like lily of the valley on 1st of May, they used to bloom then, they doesn't anymore. Climate is fucked and we can see it, physically, when things that are supposed to happen in specific times don't.
Like if you want I can also tell you about the missing glaciers. You look at a mountain and there is this whole chunk of nothing. Just a big hole in the mountain with only rocks on the grounds and it's just gigantic I swear you have no idea how fucking empty it is until you saw one yourself. And you look around and far up if you're lucky you see a little ice and you understand. This place used to be full of it. That's why there is nothing alive on the bottom of it even tho there are at least a little yellow grass where you stand on the side of it. There is nothing because it's so recent that life hadn't took its grasp on it yet. And you tell your grandma about it and you can feel her sorrow when she tells you she used to climb the glacier that was there when she was your age.
That's very specific too. That's very centric. Who fucking care if you've not seen a glacier in your life? Not everyone lives on or near the mountain. Even less are those whose mountain has or had glaciers. And yet it is so significant on the global size. And yet it is how locally you can physically see the damages caused by climate change.
Christmas as a cultural icon is starting to get really dystopian in a climate sense, december has historically been a time of year in which there would be snow in a significant portion of europe and north america, and the fact that its not even icy this time of year and all the christmas songs and decorations reference a time of year that will likely never exist in the same way again in my life time is so strange.

hey legends . im kelly and this is my absolute trash bag of a baby paris . im going to give you a heads up now she is the worst , like just horrible but like she can be fun sooo , wooo .  honestly i’ll probably add more to this at another time because i have so much to say about her? but i also wanna get to plotting with all you beauties! so if you would like to plot you can give this post a like or you can shoot me a message over on discord ( 𝓽𝓲𝓬𝓴𝓮𝓽𝓼 𝓽𝓸 𝓶𝔂 𝓭𝓸𝔀𝓷𝓯𝓪𝓵𝓵#6229 ) if you prefer chatting over there <3
the   tahan   family name is one that carries alot of weight . coming from incredibly old money , dating back over five generations . their wealth is rooted in the oil and gas business . although her father ( daveed tahan ) decided to take a different route to his family and in 1990 he and his friend co-founded interscope records ( yes i am mirroring her father’s career after jimmy iovine , don’t sue me ) where he has been a executive producer since the labels founding . he was a perpetual player who truly soaked up the attention he received within the limelight from women . ivy krige was no different , ivy was an up and coming model born to a wealthy family ( the   krige’s   had been paid off in the early 1800s by the british royal family to hold the secret that one of the krige sons was actually the heir apparent to the throne , they took the money and curated a luxury fashion line that still holds up today with the chanels & diors or the world ) in the netherlands . when she met daveed she was infatuated . they dated for about a month before he moved on to another . he assumed that would be it of him and ivy but weeks after the break up she came to him with news that she was pregnant . although the two no longer saw eye to eye , they agreed that the best thing for their future child was to have both of them in their life . 
although paris was born in   amsterdam   , the second her mother received the okay for the newborn to fly they went home to   manhattan   where paris would be raised . not even a full year after paris’ birth , ivy was offered a reality tv show on e! ( how very keeping up with the kardashians of her ) that would follow herself and her two siblings , all of which lived in the city . 
paris’ entire childhood was put on display and god she hated every second of it . she attended regular schools all her life so kids weren’t the nicest and teased her alot . because of the lack of friends she had growing up paris got into alot , she did equestrian , learned how to draw , play guitar , piano , and the drums , as well as how to speak arabic , dutch , spanish , and french . 
she also spent alot of time with her parents , she and her dad got along like two peas in a pod but he was either in los angeles or jet setting across the world so it wasn’t all the time that she got to see him . meanwhile she and her mom had all the time in the world to spend together and in all honesty paris just really isn’t a big fan of her mom . she even calls her ivy instead of mom , it’s likely resentment for the reality tv show as well as her mom always trying to be her friend instead of her parent .
as she got older things started to get easier with kids her age and paris really started to find herself in the whole nyc scene . she was never the nicest girl around . if anything paris and the word nice were never within the same sentence as one another . during high school she gave   regina george   and   blair waldorf   a run for their money . she was and still is the queen of icing people out , ruining their social standings , and manipulating people into thinking she has their best interest in mind .
the biggest note i can give you on paris is that she is not innately a good person , she does not have your best interest at heart no matter how much she manipulates you into thing she is/does .
by the end of highschool she was president of the model un , captain of the mock trial , and valedictorian of her class . paris has never just been a pretty face , she is incredibly smart and takes a certain enjoyment from learning new things . she inevitably decided to attend   georgetown university   in the nations capital . her boyfriend at the time wasn’t very happy about it but she was able to hop on a quick 3 hour flight back to the city every other weekend to see him . that was until they broke up . by then paris had picked up modeling and so she was in the city really whenever she wasn’t in class . 
her modeling career really started to take off but some how she was able to focus on both her blossoming career as well as her education . after just three years at georgetown , paris received her   bachelors in philosophy with a minor in film and media studies   . she was supposed to go straight to law school afterwards but decided to fall head first into the modelling world . she walked for some of the biggest designers , multiple times , starred in some musicians music videos , in just one year she’d surpassed all the modelling goals she had left . in a bit fo a limbo , unsure where she’d take her talents ,   karl lagerfeld   whom she’d grown close to over the years , invited her to come live out in france and he’d take her under his wing .  so she moved out to france . loving every waking moment of becoming his protegee , she wasn’t necessarily sure what he’d seen in her that he hadn’t in renowned designers but she surely was never going to question him . after his unfortunate passing , it came out that he’d wanted paris to take over as creative director of chanel but after one month she stepped down from the position claiming   “i took on this position while they sought out a true replacement for karl, i know he wanted me here but having to carve out my own lane in his shadow is all too impossible, if you ask me”   months later , it was announced that paris would be the   creative director of givenchy   , beating out oliver rousteing for youngest appointed creative director . 
she’s very recently back in new york city ( like it’s so new that she’s living at the plaza hotel while she’s still looking for a permanent place to live ) she loved living in france but honestly it was starting to get to her a bit with karl’s one year coming up .
𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐄
a total daddy’s girl , yes she is the type to say   “my father will be hearing about this“ 
the type to talk you into making a fool of yourself with her and then the next day you find a recording of yourself circulating and she’s nowhere to be seen in it
a total schemer , like blair waldorf level
loves her psychedelics and weed but not big on really any other drugs 
she has a small collection of cars a black range rover , silver bmw i8 , and a silver volvo xc90 and although she has a driver she does actually driver herself most of the time 
her moms reality show is still going and honestly gets really good ratings still ? it’s called    life with the krige’s : fashion royalty   ( normally abbreviated to lwtk )  and paris is on the show by default any time she’s around her mom , her aunt , or uncle . 
very bisexual and notoriously bad at relationships 
she certainly doesn’t have a pristine reputation , how could you when you grew up on reality tv though ? she wouldn’t change her reputation for anything though . the media surprisingly kinda loves her despite calling her an   ice queen   at times . the media sees her as  “authentic”   even though paris couldn’t find an authentic bone out of a haystack .
she can come off very funny but it’s because she has absolutely no filter and just really doesn’t care about hurting your feelings . the best way to sum up her personality is  “im actually not funny , im just really mean and people think im joking” .  
she has two pomeranians ( hi jeffree star , she’s coming for your brand ) named archie and joey . 
despite now being a creative director , img still has her signed on as a model , so maybe you’ll catch her pulling some wild shit like walking in her own shows in the future who knows
has a serious resting bitch face issue and honestly , it’s fitting
𝐒𝐄𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐓
so just a week before she was set to move out to france , paris attended a house party . her best friend was there and was being a total drag all night . paris was honestly sick of whatever funk the girl was in and so when the girl wasn’t looking paris slipped molly into her drink . not seeing any repercussions or even caring about them until the next morning when her friends body was found in the hudson river . someone who’d tried to get the girl down from the bridge claimed she’s shown serious signs of depersonalization as well as  disorganized thoughts ( both side effects of molly ) . paris decided to never fess up about her part in her friend being under the influence that night , letting it go down in history that the late model had a drug problem . of course , paris felt bad , no matter how horrible she can be her goal is never to assist in someones death let alone someone she genuinely cared for but she wasn’t going to let both of their lives come to an end that night by turning herself in .

      ♡ — * » hello i am kylen i go by any pronouns. i live in seattle washington ( or super close by anyways ) so that puts me in the pst timezone ! a little bit about me is that i’m twenty, i’m super obsessed with a game called overwatch. i also play dnd & im about that meme life. other than that im an a+ hoe for history &war-like movies. if ya’ll want to plot & we haven’t pls pls pls hmu or like this ! i’m on my way to work rn so sorry if i’m a bit spotty tonight in messaging back !
[ tom holland , male, he/him | subplot nine, muse w ] —» peach scone by hobo johnson came on the radio, and it reminded me of juniper drake, who’s been in sundance for the last month. they’re twenty-three, and currently unemployed. i’ve noticed they’re forgetful && eccentric but can be affable && adventurous, too. anyone who knows them would say bright computer screens, tea with no sugar, && sweets describes their vibe effortlessly.—» 
B A C K G R O U N D
juniper grew up in paris, france ! this makes him french ! due to the education system he was forced to learn english & another language - in which he chose german ! ( i speak german so be ready for german replies yO )
both juni’s parents had jobs from home so like… the drake family never really left to go anywhere, they were a bunch of shut ins who cared too much for the safety of their son.
juni hated not being able to go outside & play with other kids his age.
 one day, when he was eight, he told his parents that he was going to get an ice cream from the store across the street; instead he went & played with the kids on the block
long story short juni forgot to go home & ended up several blocks away from his home & his parents flipped out to the point they thought he was taken off the streets.
after the police were out & about though they found him on the balcony of someone’s apartment ( only one story up ) but learned that him & another kid climbed up there ?
at this point in time his parents were hysterical & basically up & moved to seattle & put juni in a private school. 
juni grew up feeling very... agitated - not even in the bad way. he really liked paris & he felt very shaky a lot because he just wanted to burn off his energy ? 
once he got to middle school he joined both the track team & the swimming team & he felt a lot better - he continued it through highschool & once he was in highschool he also decided to join the boys’ volleyball team
he didn’t really talk to his parents seeing as they were always breathing down his neck with everything he did & he felt pretty micomanaged
P E R S O N A L I T Y
an actual meme
P E R S O N A L I T Y ( 4 REAL )
he is a class clown. completely & utterly always down to make people laugh.
he’s the type to care about himself to the utmost extent. like if he’s unhappy you can be it’s not going to be for long.
he’s dumb & laughs at everything.
he acts super stupid in class & prolly talks back to the professors, but he actually makes dean’s list every semester ? like,… he doesn’t have a perfect 4.0, but it’s up there yEAH.
he’s a very messy person i feel. 
 ( don’t tell him your secrets omg no he can’t keep his mouth shut, pls don’t )
the fact that he can’t be serious means that he loses friends a lot & people get annoyed with him quick. so he’s kinda just a tad bit cynical when it comes to calling people ‘ close friends ’
he doesn’t know the definition of serious i s2g.
T R I V I A 
banana mixed with cotton candy ice cream is his favorite ice cream
100 100 grand bars ( for the meme )
baNANA MILK ( <– his fucking fAV )
coffee is also something that juni lives off of. he’s prolly been importing it from italy & france while being in university
due to the school he attended, juniper knows a bit of latin & greek. he can’t speak it all that well, he’s just really new to it omfg.
this boy is 5′8″ he is a small bean lmao
