Emily Dickinson, from a letter to Abiah Root (August 1851)

When Charlie arrived home from his mother's funeral, he was met at the door by two very large very enthusiastic canines, who , undistracted by keeping watch over Sophie's love hostage, were now able to visit the full measure of their affection and joy upon their returning master. It is generally agreed, and in fact stated in the bylaws of the American Kennel Club, that you have not been truly dog-humped until you have been double-dog-humped by a pair of four-hundred-pouund hounds from hell (Section 5, paragraph 7: Standards of Humping and Ass-dragging). And despite having used an extra-strength antiperspirant that very morning before leaving Sedona, Charlie found that getting poked repeatedly in the armpits by two damp devil-dog dicks was leaving him feeling less than fresh.

Sophie, call them off. Call them off."

don't you hate it that when you want to look into someone's works on their blog but it continuously re-directing you to another one bc they've changed the names over and over again million times! and the moment you think that oh, finally i'm in the blog but then you see that the person doesn't even put some decent links to his things?! I HATE IT!!

you can just put the last one as redirect from your first name, right? because I'm here for ages and I've done it, it works! and you can just add some links, it's not so hard or take too much time!! though maybe you don't really want people to see your works?! and obviously it doesn't matter to you that people spends time to find things?! what a selfishness!

and simple editing doesn't count as graphic because you put some photos on top of each other! tag accordingly... that's not #graphics that's #edits

making gifset from tv shows who made from a book doesn't make it #litedit either, it's a tv edit and it's called "books to tv" or "books to films" and you misguiding people with your tagging system.
