Hitler and the Nazi party took over Germany in 53 days. March 1st marks 41 days of the Trump administration. My hope for March is that the list you’re about to read won’t be the in-real-time evidence of America sliding further into autocracy.

Here we go again…

My brother ate all my Chex mix dammit

Sometimes when I scrolling something I mentally picture the screen winding at the top like an actual scroll and I needed everyone to know that.

I just freaked out my parents and myself by falling down the stairs. They are carpeted and I was carrying a chair down for our NYE celebration and I slipped. I only went down a few steps, and I’m only bruised but the chair broke a hole in the wall and fell all the way down. My parents freaked out and so did I and now I’m just taking a break because the adrenaline made me nauseous and I have a headache (my head didn’t hit anything)

Something I love about both of my parents is that they will stop what they are doing to help me try to unravel my yarn.

REMEMBER SKIP-IT FROM THE 90’S

we could go back to telegraphs instead of social media. send your mutuals unspeakable strings of morse code at 4:30am

I still haven’t watched season three because I’ve been having issues with shows being ruined somehow and I’ve been seeing posts about season four that are making me think that it may have been ruined anyway…. So maybe my “strategy” does and does not have merit….

I have now seen it four times and I was finally able to see it with my family. My mom jumped clear from her seat during the first jump scare.

I have already seen Twisters twice and I’m probably going to see it a third time in theaters at least. I really like it, it makes my brain happy.

A true sibling relationship. While I was sitting on the couch reading my younger brother came up to me and slomo pretended to kick my face and I hit his leg away. Neither of us said a word and he walked away right after. We are both adults.

Happy Birthday to the Cluster!

There are about ten things I keep not doing that I should be doing

Just looked at a blog where the header description said 'sometimes I reblog posts I like so I don't forget them'.

And I feel like that, right there, explains so much about how the site has changed in the last few months.

People now think reblogging is an unusual behaviour, rather than a default.

Tumblr newbies, please, for the love of baby Jesus, reblog the posts you like. That is the whole reason the site exists - for you to collect all your shiny fandom objects in a single space. Which you can organize to your heart's content. Or not organize at all, if that's your jam.

Our blogs are intended to be collections of posts, not collections of likes.

Reblog if you think public libraries are important and should be maintained.
