Questions for Americans from a Brit
(None of these are supposed to be offensive or what not; I’m genuinely curious)
• Do you really have a flag in every classroom?
• What does graduating high school mean? Do you get any actual qualifications or is it like ‘well done here’s a certificate’?
• Why are your houses so big?!
• What are the walls in houses made of, like brick…or dry wall…?
• Is it common to visit other states or do you generally stay where you are?
• What do your principles actually do? Do they really speak to every kid who’s been sent out of class (the classic “I got sent to the principle’s office” in movies)? Are they not too busy with, you know, running the school?
• Why is it when schools have a school uniform, the trousers are always beige??
• What’s a semester?
• How many lessons do you have a day in school?
• Why’s your healthcare so expensive? Surely it doesn’t cost that much for treatment? Like how does a childbirth with no complications cost thousands of dollars?
• What’s even the point in one dollar notes?
• What’s a dime?
• What’s a quarter?
• Do you have badgers?
• Why are the quality of your tv shows so bad? They’re always grainy and have an odd audio quality.

Shadowhunters is such an important show. It was the first time I’ve ever seen a character of my sexual identity ANYWHERE and it felt amazing to know that I wasn’t alone! I can only imagine the hundreds of thousands of lives that this show has touched, and the many that have felt validated because of it. It’s amazing LGBTQIA+ representation is something we sourly need when there’s so much hate in the world. Please, do sign the petition, or reblog. ❤️❤️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

In the UK, when we buy tampons, we have to pay tax on them. This is because they are not classed as 'essentials', even though items such as Jaffa Cakes, razors, and even CROCODILE MEAT are! Although the UK Government has promised to end the Tampon Tax, Brexit has gotten in the way, delaying it until 2019. Tesco and Waitrose are now paying the tax for us, which is wonderful! This petition is asking the other big supermarkets to do the same. Obviously you don't have to sign anything you don't want to, but please do take a look :)

Boyfriend Problems....
Clary: My boyfriend is too tall for me to kiss him on the lips. What should I do? Izzy: Punch him in the stomach. Then, when he doubles over in pain, kiss him. Alec: Tackle him. Simon: Dump him. Magnus: Kick him in the shin. Jace: NO TO ALL OF THOSE. JUST ASK ME TO LEAN DOWN.
