Make a posable worm off the string (very easy)

You ever saw a worm on a string and thought: "why does this thing have no spine? It should have a spine." I did think that, and this is the result

What you need:

Those hairy wire thingies, I don't know what they're called. Google says chenille wire but I've never heard that term in my life. Make sure you use the soft, long haired ones

Googly eyes(you probably want the smallest size you can find. I had limited options so the eyes were kinda big for the face, but they still turned out fine, so don't worry too much about it)

Scissors

Glue

Step 1: cut the wire

It doesn't matter what length, that's up to you.

Step 2: haircut time!

Worms have a pointy nose and their tail slowly tapers down. Use a reference if you need to. It can be kind of tricky to get it even on all sides(especially if you have super dull scissors like me), but no worm is perfect! Maybe yours has a funky haircut or a stubby tail, who cares? It's a worm and that is enough. If you really don't feel like cutting worm hair today, you could also just skip this step entirely.

Step 3: add googly eyes

I used a glue gun but other kinds of glue are probably okay too. If your googly eyes are self adhering that might work, I don't know, I haven't tried it.

Step 4: that's it, you're done!

Enjoy your very own posable worm. Now go make some more, cause every worm needs a friend

This is the funniest thing I've ever seen

dumb

[theaverageteenagefan]

I got inspired to write something, so I did. I’ve only read the books, not watched the series, so this is my interpretation of heaven and hell.

Many have wondered what Heaven looks like. The most popular take is some sort of city, with big walls around it and a long stairway that one must walk before entering Heaven itself. Others envision it more like an endless void of happiness, or say it is made out of clouds, standing on top of clouds, and when you look down you can see the earth below(and more clouds). The thing Heaven most resembles, however, is not a city or a void or a cloud, but rather something like a penthouse you’d find in an interior design magazine for rich people who want a stylish house in which they will spend at most three days a year. It is modern looking, very white with lots of angles - not to be confused with Angels, though they are also present, of course- and big floor-to-ceiling windows. Furniture is sparse, but not in the ‘I don’t have enough money for furniture’ sense. Rather, it seems to radiate: ‘this is a deliberate choice and my interior designer makes more in a week than you in an entire year’. Or perhaps something more like ‘I do not know what furniture is but humans seem to deem it necessary so I’ll just put some in here’. The windows, as you would expect from a top-notch apartment, look out over tiny buildings far down below. The only difference with a real penthouse -apart from all of the Heavenly Forces that you will not find in anyone’s home- is that the tiny buildings far down below could be in Paris one moment and in New York the next.

Now you might think: but isn’t Heaven very big? How can all those Angels and souls and the garden of Eden and everything else fit on top of just one building? The thing to remember in this case, is that Heaven is not actually a penthouse on top of a building, just how the building is not actually a building.*  For example, if you would open a window, stick your head out, and look down, you would find that there is no building. All floors, beside the top one, do not seem to exist. That is because they, in fact, do not exist. The not actually a building with the not actually a penthouse does not have any other floors than the not actually a penthouse. 

It does have a basement, though. It’s called ‘Hell’. Hell is rather more dark and crowded than Heaven. It’s like all the furniture that Heaven did not like was thrown down into the basement, with a call of ‘I’ll bring it to the dump later’, to be forgotten for all of eternity. This furniture consists of thousands of couches and coffee tables and wardrobes and those chairs with a weird curve in the backrest that digs into places you do not want it to dig in, and exactly three lamps, one of which only works on tuesdays. It stands in the office of a Demon who, coincidentally, also only works on tuesdays. 

Heaven and Hell are connected like any other two parts of a building would be connected, even though the building is not actually a building. Also, like in most buildings, the elevator is broken. When an Angel decides to pop into Hell for a bit, or a Demon decides to look around in Heaven (both instances are incredibly rare, because why would any Angel go into Hell and why would any Demon go into Heaven?) they will just Miracle themselves where they want to go. The actual, physical connection between Heaven and Hell is only used for one thing, really, and that is Falling. When an Angel did wrong and is punished with Falling, they are pushed down the elevator shaft.** The only exception to this is the Demon Crowley, who did not fancy falling down who knows how many floors, and instead opted to take the stairs. 

*Also: the garden of Eden is not in Heaven, but, as any sensible person could figure out, in Eden.  **The elevator itself is not present in the elevator shaft. It used to be at the bottom, but after the first Demons Fell right on top of it, they decided to get it out of the shaft and scavenge it for parts with which they could make lamps.

heaven really is just the top of an office building 

and hell is the shitty basement

It’s a long read, but worth it

What if Harry Potter, the chosen one, had turned out to be a squib, how do you think history would have turned out differently?

It was Mrs. Figg who suspected first.

She noticed many things, sitting on her side of her fence with her cats chasing butterflies and nuzzling her ankles, Mundungus and the other watchers dropping by for tea now and then.

Mrs. Figg noticed that Petunia was a nosy bit of work with insecurities hanging from her every harsh angle. She noticed when Dudley learned the word MINE– the whole neighborhood noticed that one. She noticed that Vernon glared at owls.

She noticed that when Petunia gave Harry a truly horrendous haircut one year, it grew back in at a normal rate. Harry was uneven and weird-looking for ages, hiding under beanies when he could.

When Mrs. Figg had Harry over for carefully miserable afternoons of babysitting, she noticed nothing moved that shouldn’t. He didn’t accidentally make flowers out of fallen leaves, or levitate anything during tantrums, or turn toys funny colors.

Mrs. Figg called up her mother, interrupting the wizarding bridge game she was winning against the nursing home staff, and asked her how she had known, decades back, that her youngest daughter was a squib.

When Albus Dumbledore received Mrs. Figg’s letter he wrote back a polite thank you and then went to talk with Minerva McGonagall, who inhaled sharply in horror when he told her the news.

Finally, McGonagall gave a gathered sigh. “I suppose we can ask one of the wizarding families to homeschool him,” she said. “We can’t have the Boy Who Lived not knowing about his own world.”  

“No, he’ll come to Hogwarts,” said Dumbledore.

“Hogwarts is not a place for–” Her voice fell. “–squibs, Albus.”

Dumbledore shook his head. “Harry must be taught.”

“Be taught what, Albus?”

But Dumbledore just sighed and offered her a lemon drop.

Years later, the owls and the letters came to 4 Privet Drive. The Dursleys ran, dragging Harry with them, and the letters and one stubborn gamekeeper followed– none of this would change with a magicless Harry.

When Hagrid asked Harry in that little cabin on that little rock in the middle of the sea if weird things always happened around him, Harry couldn’t tell him about vanishing glass and setting captive snakes free, about ending up somehow on the school roof, or growing his hair out overnight.  

“Strange things always happen around you, don’ they?”

“Um,” said Harry, racking his brain. “Well… I live in a cupboard under the stairs…”

Harry could tell him about how snakes sometimes talked back, because that had never been Harry’s magic, but when he did Hagrid just blanched and changed the subject.

Hagrid held out hope, even against Dumbledore’s quiet warning explanations, until they made it to Ollivander’s Wands. Harry marveled at Diagon Alley, got his hands shaken in the Leaky, pressed his nose up against shop windows. Hagrid watched the scant boy– looked at James’s messy hair, Lily’s eyes, Harry’s own wandering gaze– and he wondered how this boy could be anything but magical.

In the wand shop, Ollivander said, “James Potter, yes… mahogany, eleven inches. Pliable. A powerful wand for Transfiguration.” He said, “And your mother, Lily…  strong in Charms work, ten and… yes, ten and a quarter, willow, swishy.”

Harry picked up stick after wooden stick. They remained just that– wood with bits of feather or scale or hair. Harry wondered if the creatures who gave these offerings were still alive– if they were given or taken. What did it do to your wand when they died? He waved a maplewood wand (unicorn hair, eleven inches) and a gust from the door opening blew some receipts off the counter.

“Well, said Ollivander. “I think that’s as close as we’re likely to get.”

He sent them out with the maplewood. Hagrid bought Harry a snowy owl and a fudge sundae and tried not make it too obvious that these were condolence gifts. The next day the Prophet’s headlines read: The Boy Who Lived– A Squib? Various magical medical experts weighed in on how it might have happened. Fingers were pointed at childhood trauma, at his upbringing, at his family lineage.

Harry still met Ron on the train– Ron was still smudge-nosed and Harry still bought enough candy to share. When Molly had helped him through the platform entrance, her voice had been a little softer, a little more pitying– but it was still better than the laughter that had been in his aunt and uncle’s voices when they dropped him here to find a platform they didn’t think existed.

Hermione Granger dropped by their compartment, looking for Neville’s toad, but got distracted when she spotted Harry. “I’ve read about you! In my books, and in the paper,” she said. “You’re the Boy Who Lived, and you’re a squib.”

Harry sank down in his seat. Ron hid Scabbers under a candy wrapper.

“Squibs have never been allowed in Hogwarts,” Hermione announced. “According to Hogwarts, A History, squibs try to sneak in now and then– the furthest anyone’s ever gotten is to the Sorting Hat before they got found out.” At eleven, Hermione still believed in expulsion being worse than death. Her voice was thrumming with sympathetic horror.

“But they already found out about me,” Harry said, alarmed.

“It’s alright, mate,” said Ron. “You’re Harry Potter. Oy, Granger,” he added. “What’s this Hat? Fred and George were trying to sell me some story about having to fight a mountain troll to get your House…”

Harry sat back and watched the countryside rush by. Yes, he was Harry Potter– his aunt’s useless sister’s useless child, the boy in the lumpy hand-me-down sweaters who named the spiders who lived in his cupboard. And here, in new world, he was apparently useless too.

When they got to Hogwarts, Harry clenched his fists and stood in line with the other first years. He barely twitched at the ghosts or Peeves, just stared ahead and thought about how far he would get before they turned him around and sent him back to Vernon and Petunia.

They opened the Great Hall doors. They called the first years one by one. Harry clenched his teeth and walked up to the Hat when they called his name.

As he turned to sit down on the stool, he really caught sight of the Hall for the first time– the hovering candles, the big wooden tables, the black robes that swallowed the light. Translucent ghosts gossiped with the students beside them. The paintings on the far walls– were they moving?

Harry’s jaw had unclenched, falling open. His fists curled open, curving around the stool’s seat as he leaned forward to stare. If this was it, if this was as far as he’d get in this world, then he wanted to drink it all in. The candles were floating, in mid-air.

The Hat dropped down over his eyes and blocked out the light.

Well, said the dry voice that had been hollering House placements all night. What do we have here?

Ron had been begging for not-Slytherin. Draco from the robes shop had been scornful of Hufflepuff, desperate in his disdain. Neville had begged for Hufflepuff, sure he was not brave enough for Gryffindor.

Please, thought Harry. Don’t send me back.

This is quite possibly the funniest thing I've ever seen.

Bureaucratism: You have 2 cows; the Government takes both, shoots one, milks the other and throws the milk away..

Traditional Capitalism: You have 2 cows. You sell one and buy a bull. You herd multiplies, and the economy grows. You sell them and retire on the income.

An American Corporation: You have 2 cows. You sell one, and force the other to produce the milk of four cows. Later, you hire a consultant to analyze why the cow dropped dead.

A French Corporation: You have 2 cows. You go on strike because you want three cows.

Japanese Corporation: You have 2 cows. You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of an ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk. You then create a clever cow cartoon image called Cowkimon and market them Worldwide.

An Italian Corporation: You have 2 cows, but you don’t know where they are. You break for lunch.

A Swiss Corporation: You have 5000 cows. None of which belong to you. You charge others for storing them.

Chinese Corporation: You have 2 cows. You have 300 people milking them. You claim full employment, high bovine productivity, and arrest the newsman who reported the numbers.

An Iraqi Corporation: Everyone thinks you have lots of cows. You tell them that you have none. No one believes you and they bomb your arse. You still have no cows, but at least now you are part of a Democracy…….

Counter Culture: ‘Wow, dig it, like there’s these 2 cows, man, grazing in the hemp field. You gotta have some of this milk!’

Surrealism: You have two giraffes. The government requires you to take harmonica lessons.

Fatalist: You have 2 doomed cows…

Atheism: You have 2 cows. There is no God.

A West-Country Corporation: You have 2 cows. That one on the left is kinda cute.

A Brazilian Corporation: You have 2 cows. You pay taxes for 6 cows. You have to sell one cow in order to pay the taxes. Your remaining cow gets sick and dies while waiting for availability in the public vet hospital.

Russia: You have two cows. Since they are both female, if you happen to keep them in the same stable you will pay a 5,000 rouble fine for homosexual propaganda.

PETA: You have two cows. You kill them both. You then use naked women to convince other people that killing cows is wrong.

Moffat: You have two cows. Both of them are your daughters time traveling from the past where they had a brief love affair with Da Vinci making you the rightful Queen of England. As you assume the throne, you throw them off a building.

Romney: You have 2 cows. You are not the president of the united states.

Old Spice: You have 2 cows. The cows are now diamonds. I’m on a horse.

An Irish Corporation: You have a million cows because they’re everywhere

Tumblr: You have 2 cows. You ship them together and make GIF posts screaming about how much you love your cows, but they should stop existing because they are so perfect.

Also Tumblr: I give you a hamburger.

Night Vale: You do NOT have two cows. Cows do not exist. What’s a cow? Show me a cow! That’s not a cow! Who let you in here?

Tom Hiddleston: You have two cows. You are very sorry for them.

Thranduil: You do not have two cows, you have an elk. Riding on two cows is not majestic. Also the dwarves are on fire.

Dwarves: You had two cows but now they’re on fire.

Bilbo Baggins: You did not invite those two cows for dinner.

Cows: The shit you go through.
