OF BOOKSHELVES AND RECORD CABINETS

I'm a published poet and short story author where music and books were the load bearing walls of my childhood. This led to a love of movies, anything from Bogart to Clooney. My heros are Margaret Atwood, Hugh Laurie, and The Beatles. I was lucky enough to have met Ms. Atwood, taught by Thomas Lux, and to have heard Drake Bell play his own music and cover The Beatles three times. My name is Veronica. Let's get passionate.

i hate it when you have an online friend that you used to be close with and drift apart from because when you miss them it’s not like you can just invite them to come over and hang out with them to try to make things better, all you can do is message or text them or something and they might not even reply, so you just feel sad that your relationship will never be what it once was

Quick, messy graphic to explain a concept that seems obvious to me:

We shouldn’t be helping women because they’re related to someone else. We shouldn’t be helping women because someone else cares about them. We should be helping women because they are people.

We should be helping women for their own sake.

Why is that a hard concept for people to grasp?

ok none of that bullshit stuff

THESE are the best feelings in the world:

peeing after holding it in all day

faking ill and getting sent back to bed

when you sing really emotionally and give yourself shivers b/c you’re fucking star quality

getting a back massage

seeing somebody you don’t like fall over omfg

when you try and talk to your pet in their language and you feel like you’re having a conversation

Nothing could make me more curious about your taxidermy than this.

I need this as a t-shirt as “zoologically improbable and/or terrifying to small children” sums me up.

Finally I know what I want inscribed on my tombstone when I die.

I remember the news article, this is the lion that was removed:

THAT IS FUCKING TERRIFYING

OH MY GOD THAT IS HORRIFIC

hahaha

I’M LAUGHING SO HARD OH MY GOD

I can’t remember the last time I actually laughed this hard at something on tumblr. Oh my shit.

“Hey kids wanna buy some drugs?”

ummmm I’m sorry what?

that’s a fucking lion?
