I Have A Problem

The only reason I've been able to get A*s on my two previous Chemistry assessments is because the night before each of them, my ADHD decided that hyperfocusing on Chem for six hours was the only thing that I should have been doing so now I'm gonna fail tommorow because I have five other assessments to revise for and I cannot bring myself to do anything because there's so much. That's why I'm sitting on my bedroom floor scrolling through bullshit on Instagram. I just want to take a nap.

That’s gangsta ink!

please, it’s pride month.

I saw everyone on twitter tearing Emma Watson apart for saying she’s self - partnered instead of single and decided to watch her interview for British Vogue to know what the hell was she trying to say with that. I was very surprised to find a 30 minute video in which amongst other things she talks about the following:

She felt undeserving when she was appointed as UN Women goodwill ambassador and sought out Gloria Steinem to learn about feminist activism.

She thinks the criticism she received for being a white feminist was useful because it made her educate herself.

She says there’s a desperate need to reform the education system in the UK to change the way they are taught the history of how Britain has been involved in foreign affairs and how they profited from slavery.

She felt anxious about approaching 30 because there’s a lot of pressure to have a husband and a baby by then and she’s still figuring her life out.

She was so young when she was casted in Harry Potter that she doesn’t remember much of her life before it and she went to therapy to deal with her issues with fame. She used to feel very guilty for being unhappy because she thought she should enjoy fame more.

The interviewer is a transgender woman and they discuss transgender issues for a while. Emma is in regular contact with a trans child which makes the topic of trans rights emotional for her because she’s very anxious for this kid’s safety.

She talks about her role as Meg March in the new Little Women movie and defends that unlike what many people say choosing to be a wife and a mother doesn’t make Meg a less feminist character and quotes a line from the movie, “Just because my dreams are different than yours it doesn’t mean they are unimportant.”  

She wishes more people would realize she’s not Hermione Granger but also understands why they want to see that in her because Hermione is a symbol for her too.

She used to think she could never be happy without a partner and now that she has learnt to navigate that better and is genuinely happy single she’s started to think of herself as self - partnered in contrast to the time when she thought of herself as single = lonely.

Every media outlet decided to focus in an out of context quote from the three minutes she talked about her dating life when the actual interview had a lot of depth and way more important things were discussed. I’m sad and angry but not surprised.

just because you're happy doesn't mean it didn't happen

just because you're having a good day doesn't mean you're faking

just because you're recovering doesn't mean you lied

Hufflepuff: Are you sure you’re up for an all-nighter? Last time we studied this long you got kind of weird.

Ravenclaw: Don’t worry, I’ll be fine, I promise.

Hufflpuff: [looks up from book] Well, I think that’s all I can handle for tonight. How about you, Ravenclaw? *looks around* Hello? Where did you go??

Ravenclaw: [from the shadows]

I wish that I was able to learn Welsh as a child because it's the language of the country I am a part of but because of the times where children were beaten for speaking Welsh, English is the main language that people speak in my area. I still learn Welsh in school but it's not taught well and my teacher is rubbish. I wish the Welsh was my first language because it's so beautiful.

as a welsh person i want you all to accept that W is a vowel because honestly it makes pronouncing acronyms so much easier. wlw becomes ‘ooloo’, wjec becomes ‘oojeck’, love yourselves and stop giving us shit when we tell you welsh has 7 vowels. english actually has 15 vowel sounds but because y’all only use 5 letters you have to rely on a spelling system devised by satan

TODAY IT’S A GREAT DAY BECAUSE IT’S MARCH 15th THE DAY WHEN DENZEL CROCKER LOST HIS HAPPINESS AND IT’S ALSO ANNOY SQUIDWARD DAY

Short comic, while I work on something bigger on the side. It is nevertheless a very important topic. A lot of seabirds die because they eat plastic. They feed their chicks with the waste. It’s really tragic.

Very

gay?
