So recently (about a week ago) I was finally able to complete my new years resolution!! My and my dad went somewhere a few hours away, and got tickets to ride a train that was themed around the Polar Express!! They gave you a golden ticket, the conductor hole punched it onto your hair, they did the hot chocolate song (with very little enthusiasm, all the workers were like...14 y/o theater kids), gave you hot chocolate and a cookie, there was an audio read of the book, the train went through a tunnel, the whole 9 yards! The train went to a coal depot that was nearby that was decorated like the north pole, Santa waved you in and there were people dressed as elves, and they even had one specific guy who just did a backflip every few minutes, which everyone lost their minds over.

Once we left by just going in reverse Santa was gone, and eventually he came through the train, everyone got actually a really nice metal bell with "The Polar Express™" engraved on it, and it was just a really really nice experience!! Like sure I was embarrassed a bit at first since the whole thing was targeted towards kids, but I was grinning like an idiot the whole time and it was just such a good time!!!

So I completed my new years resolution (ride a train), and it was a really really nice early birthday gift too!

Claymores… Wolf’s Gravestone would make a pretty cool guitar. Song of Broken Pines too. oh and the Bell as well

Youth is a marvellous garment. How misplaced is the sympathy lavished on adolescents. There is a yet more difficult age which comes later, when one has less to hope for and less ability to change, when one has cast the die and has to settle into a chosen life without the consolations of habit or the wisdom of maturity, when, as in her own case, one ceases to be une jeune fille un peu folle, and becomes merely a woman, worst of all, a wife. The very young have their troubles, but they at least have a part to play, the part of being very young.

Yet all the time, in a shy roundabout way, she loved him herself, rather hopelessly and gloomily, as one might love someone to whom one had never spoken.

emily gwen, the creator of the sunset lesbian flag that we’ve come to commonly use, still continues to live in poverty.

multi-billion dollar companies have used their design and made profit from it, and yet they have not seen a cent for their creation.

i’ve been friends with emily for years, and i have not once seen them be financially stable the entire time. i’ve seen them homeless, unemployed, starving. right now, they need our help more than ever.

please consider donating to emily’s ko-fi, especially if you’ve used their design to create something and profited from it.
