hello! this is your winter exchange gifter! due to time constraints, i'm not sure i'm going to be able to finish the part of your fic that actually takes place in winter. is it okay with you if it doesn't fit the actual theme? i can definitely figure something out if you'd rather have the winter vibes.

hope you're doing well and your exchange gift isn't giving you much trouble!

Hi! I do not care if it is on theme at all or if it takes place in winter. Do whatever your creativity says and don't stress :)

And thank you for working so hard on my gift. I'm sure I'll love it 💖

The Perfect Explanation of Privilege – In One Powerful Punchline

“The Pencilsword” is a comic strip by Toby Morris, an illustrator from New Zealand. His most recent comic, “On a Plate” hits hard at the heart of the issues of concerning wealth and privilege.

How many times have you heard the “I’ve never been handed anything on a platter” argument in regard to social security and other social benefits?

Toby wrecks this argument by showing how two children can grow up, be loved and supported, and yet still have two very different outcomes.

Make sure to follow all the way to the end for the powerful punchline. This comic is an increasingly sad reality for far too many of this nation’s children and families.

i think it's cute when americans talk about being from the 'great state of connecticut' or like 'the great state of wisconsin.' not when it's texas or new york or california obviously because then there's the fear that they're being serious. but when americans adopt that really earnest tone and are like 'god bless the great state of delaware' in response to a picture of a seagull swallowing an entire ziplock bag full of cheese-its. I think that's very endearing

"Sorry I have a boyfriend" is of course a time-tested and reasonably reliable no-fault rejection strategy. But what many tacticians may not realize is it has an even more powerful counterpart, the preemptive boyfriend name-drop. This is when a conversation with a stranger veers into high-alert territory and you make up a guy named Raphael (my boyfriend) who you mention due to his extremely-relevant interest in the current topic of conversation.

my truly toxic trait is that I'm incapable of being sick gracefully and walk around whining about how uncomfortable I am expecting everyone to be like "omg you poor little delicate perfect angel you ARE so uncomfortable you have a cough and its the worst thing to happen ever in history and you are so so brave for even existing in this state of distress" and they DO NOT and instead of being coddled like i deserve I have to go to work on zoom and tell clients to please not smoke cigarettes in zoom court while i cough into a tissue like i have tuberculosis. This is the injustice and the systemic oppression i should be fighting as a public defender cps can take a backseat

For People Wondering What the Timeline of Wicked Is, Here is my Chronological Oz Playlist!

I spent hours putting together a giant chronological playlist of every song I could find relating to the Wizard of Oz and Wicked.

It starts where Wicked does. Has the intro to the Wicked movie, then goes into several different adaptions of Wizard of Oz, the Wiz, and then back to wicked. To include everything semi-coherently, it actually tells the story twice using different variations of the songs/story from different adaptations and then is intended to loop back around (perk of No One Mourns the Wicked: you can loop the story nonstop very naturally. Lol.)

If that doesn't make sense, then just listen to it. There are 133 songs and the playlist is over 6 hours long, soooo...

Ur welcome! Enjoy!

[scrolling through a fandom tag] wrong. wrong. incomprehensibly wrong. wrong but harmless. nice style and color palette but I don't care about that ship. mildly entertaining liveblog update. they whitewashed my girl :( . good joke, reblog. wro--well that's my mutual so I will politely look away. fifteen posts in a row by an innocent rp blog that I don't have the heart to block. take I agree with but op was annoying about it. chapter twenty-eight of a longfic wip. !! GOOD POST !!, instafollowed. bot. technically correctly tagged but uses this acronym for something completely different. museum worthy art piece by a sixteen-year-old from the philippines. wrong. wrong but in a new and exciting way that provokes thought.
