The Bay Bridge and Big dreams
She first glimpsed all those years ago
The dreams she’d have years from then
It’d be impossible to know
The way the water shimmered from all the brilliant light
Her heart fluttered like it would years from then
With her restlessness and will to fight
The cool breeze, the midnight air, the miraculous breathless delight
All the things she feels, and forgets are from that night
That night in San Francisco where all dreams could come true
After all she was very young and therefore hardly knew
She hardly knew of the world, of her own desire to explore
Her ambitions still a mystery, her heart not strong enough to roar
She keeps on going day to day
To achieve her dreams, come what may
The dreams she felt but could not see all those years ago
Her big dreams from the Bay Bridge that night in San Francisco
Not trying to spread hate or anything but the one thing I hate about tumblr is that it's full of cats. Cat pics, cat people, just generally too many cats.
Most of these take place in some miscellaneous undefined AU that is much happier than cannon.
*Isadora and Quigley are thrill seekers and do really reckless things when they’re together that consequently give Duncan a stomach ache.
*However Duncan and Quigley do stupid things together that make Isadora role her eyes. Not stupid in a reckless way, but still in a ‘what the fuck were you thinking?’ sort of way. Things like chugging 3 gallons of water and not going pee for 3 hours on a dare.
*Violet doesn’t have any fucks left to give
*Violet is a wine aunt
*We already knew this but Klaus has woke barista energy and is supremely sassy
*As a teenager Sunny is a total stereotypical badass
*Duncan is a terrible babysitter
*Klaus Baudelaire has had too many iced coffees
*Klaus, Duncan, and Isadora are insomniacs but in completely different ways
*Klaus was just up that late because he had too much caffeine and he was reading and he didn’t know what time it was.
*Duncan’s been procrastinating all day but got a burst of energy and works manically between the hours of midnight and 3 AM
*Isadora is just full of energy and down to party or she wants to quietly look at the stars and write poems, no inbetween.
Me: goes through emo phase, adds mcr to my playlist and never removes it
Spotify: yeah, but we're not going to play that unless you ask for it, emo phase is over
Spotify as I'm scrolling through Umbrella Academy posts on tumblr: MCR!!!!
Just re-watched X-Men first class. How come no one talks about the fact that Erik walks past Hank injecting a needle into Ravens arm and simply says "kinky"
Like that scene is actually so funny
Totally agree. Not to mention the fact that Katniss wasn't trying to be the face of a rebellion, it just kind of happened to her. The biggest difference I noticed between THG and SOTR is that Haymitch was trying to end the games and actively rebel while Katniss would love that to happen but is primarily focused on the survival of herself and her family.
Katniss accidentally became the face of a revolution through a mixture of her natural reactions to her situation being publicized and the orchestration of those that have been behind the rebellion for decades.
It is not a teenage girl saves the world story it is a teenage girl becomes propaganda story.
Suzanne Collin’s just said fuck you to everyone who’s ever critiqued the Hunger Games as being a “teen girl saves the day” story. She said oh, Mockingjay didn’t make it clear enough? Here’s a book about how people have been rebelling for decades only to have their efforts suppressed and propagandized. Rebellion takes time and it takes failure and Katniss may have been the spark that ignited the wildfire but she did so standing atop the doused flames of everyone who came before her.

Okay, this never happens. I just sat down for a solid 3 and a half hours and wrote a fic from start to end in a draft format that closely resembles mid-draft as opposed to first draft. My concentration never wavered.
I’m afraid
A Tier-my faves: The Good Place, New Girl, 30 Rock, Scream Queens
B Tier- I was invested and entertained, always happy to watch: Tacoma FD, The Mindy Project, Boy Meets World, The Goldbergs, Fresh off the Boat, Modern Family, Blackish, Superstore
C+: Brooklyn 99 (might be higher if I watched more)
C Tier-good shows to throw on when there’s nothing else to watch but I don’t particularly like it:The Office, Parks and Rec, Miracle Workers, Those Who Can’t Do, Suburbia
C-: Scrubs
D+: Friends (not a D because of the theme song and also its iconicness), My Name is Earl
D Tier- I watched a couple episodes, not a huge fan/didn’t hold my attention: Shrill (this show would be higher in the ranking if I were ranking it as a drama), Good Girls, Angie Tribeca
this is realer than ever
