We Won’t Go Quietly.

Reblog if you think Alfie Allen (Theon Greyjoy) deserves consideration for Emmy nomination

We are trying to gauge the level of support that can be expected from the Tumblr fandom alone. What for? We are thinking about launching a fan campaign to help convince HBO to submit Alfie Allen’s name for the 2018 Emmy nominating ballots, based on his excellent work in season 7 of Game of Thrones. Alfie Allen’s name was last submitted in 2012 for his season 2 work. While there is some evidence to suggest that HBO may very well submit Alfie’s name next year  (Theon finally got his first ever official poster from HBO this season!) along with those of the other veterans (Dinklage etc.), I think a strong gesture of support from fans wouldn’t hurt. Consider this our zeroth step.  

I was there the day the strength of tumblr staff failed.

Tilda Swinton risked arrest waving a rainbow flag in front of the Kremlin in violation of Russia’s new homosexual propaganda bill. And she wants everyone who can to reblog it in solidarity.

Guys please reblog this, it won’t ruin your blog, this is important

Be Brave

Has anyone else seen the quote: “I’ve never met a strong person with an easy past?”

I have. On multiple occasions. And although, as a realist, I have some difficulty believing this, I see it everyday without noticing it. I’m not saying there are dragon slayers and knight in shining armor all over the place, but you have to admit that someone who gets up everyday even though they know it’s going to be a shitty day is truly brave.

My point isn’t to define who deserves to be called strong and who doesn’t, because that is a subject that would create too much problems and I don’t think I get to judge anyone, ever. The reason why I stated this was that I wanted to tell everyone how brave they are. Now, don’t go away thinking that I am trying to please your ears. I want to let anyone and everyone who needs it that they are good and strong and that I admire them for being so brave.

As a matter of fact, I will enumerate all the things I think make someone strong. The following are things that takes a lot of my energy and my courage to do, but that I do anyway:

·       You’ve been able to get up in the morning without snoozing you alarm clock.

·       You’ve actually asked a question to the teacher in front of the whole class even though you thought you might sound stupid (which I am pretty sure you didn’t).

·       You have planned you study or your school working time in advance.

·       You have chosen school before going on the internet.

·       You’ve gone to sleep at a reasonable hour (considering the hour you would have to get up).

·       You’ve taken someone’s shit and haven’t tormented yourself afterwards with what you did or what you could’ve done.

I could go on for a while, but I’m guessing you get what I mean. You are strong. You may not think so, but I do and even though I don’t even know you, I care. Know that if anything happened to you, my heart would ache, and I would actually be sad.

And just so you know, although you may not realise it, I am far from the only one who thinks that way.
