A family of cheetahs sleep with the forest guard every night. When the Forest Dept. heard about it, they decided to check the veracity of the claim by installing a CCTV camera. This is what the camera recorded! Just amazing.

I love insufferable protagonists. I love heroes who are smug little shits. I hope the trials and tribulations of an entire book series fail to teach them even the smallest smidgen of humility. i hope it makes them worse. gimme that sweet sweet hubris candy coating

I sent this to my professor because we just did an essay about the meaning of time and such, this was her response

Thanks, [my name],

It is poignant! An evocative image that Dōgen would surely appreciate, too.

I hope you have a balanced weekend.

Warmly,

Dr. [Professor]

Just thought you should know.

Exactly!

And i gotta ask, I cannot be the only one who sees these things, like

Writing tips to help get published! Problems an editor always has to point out!

And I'm just like, please don't do that?? As a reader, i do not agree?

For example, i saw one guy saying, "Don't use one-off side characters. Combine them into one character, so that the batista the MC sees everyday, the secondary love interest, and the childhood are all 1 3-dimensional person instead of 3 1-dimenaional characters."

I saw that and i just immediately thought, please god no, don't do that. I love random side characters! I hate it when it feels like the MC's world is so tiny, like they literally only interact with 2 or 3 people. I wanna see how they are with strangers! How strangers percieve them! It makes the world feel larger!

And i admit, i am NOT a writer, at all. But I read CONSTANTLY. I'm part of the audience, and i prefer when my book/fanfiction does the opposite of what professionals tell them to.

Please tell me I'm not the only one

Reblog if you’ve ever read fan-fiction that actually set the bar higher.

I Actually Got Help From A Friend To Answer Some Of The Questions, Like How Best To Describe Me And What

I actually got help from a friend to answer some of the questions, like how best to describe me and what my "sin" was. Very fun and accurate!

I Actually Got Help From A Friend To Answer Some Of The Questions, Like How Best To Describe Me And What
What form would your daemon take?
In the world of His Dark Materials, what would your daemon appear as?

this was a long undertaking but i’m beyond excited to post what i believe is the most comprehensive daemon-finding quiz to date, featuring 34 categories of animals and over 320 total possible outcomes! from insects to owls to seals to wild cats, you’re sure to find a unique result that fits your personality.

tag or comment what your daemon would be! :) mine’s a cocker spaniel!

EDIT: the quiz has two parts, the category which this post links to (34 options), and then the specific animal within that category (5-15 options) which you’re linked to once you get your result!

I havent seen anyone talk about this yet so im making a post. 

So lets say you’re researching something for a paper (or just for fun) and the research paper you want to read is behind a paywall, or the site makes you create an account first, or makes you pay to download, or limits you to only 5 free articles, or otherwise makes it difficult for you to read what you want.

do not fear! copy the link to the article

go to sci-hub.se         (the url is always changing so its best to check out whereisscihub.now.sh to find what the current url is)

slap the article link in there

bam! free access!

We had Kudzu in our garden! Not purposely, it just took over everything until we went out with a shovel. Don't just cut the vines! That only makes it come back stronger! Follow them to the root source, that was the only way to get rid of it. It wasn't big compared to others I've seen, taking up maybe 15 sq ft? And the main root was the size of my head with an offshoot an inch thick. But it worked!

Building a treehouse is the biggest insult to a tree. “I killed your friend, here hold him.”

My Paw Paw (grandfather) is the most conservative, gun-loving, ignorant asshole I know. One time the police were called on him in a Popeyes parking lot cause he was drunk and yelling at people. He proceeded to throw chicken at the police officers and yell at them as well until they arrested him. This is his favorite story that he will tell anyone who sits still long enough.

You can identify a fake redneck by their passionate support of “blue lives matter.” Real rednecks have been in at least one physical fight and/or high-speed chase with police officers and would do it again

Don't you love that feeling when you fail the first the test of the semester in class and you spend the rest of the day with horrible anxiety because you either drop the class or take a blow to your gpa and so can't focus on the 3 assignments you needed to do and you finally calm yourself down and convince yourself it's not actually a big deal and you don't need to worry about and so when you're talking to your mom later that day when you're driving around you bring it up casually and she starts freaking out on you, saying you need at least 15 hours even though there is literally no requirement saying you need 15 hours and then you start crying and she's like "why are you crying" and you try to explain how anxious and streesed you've been literally the entire day and you were just hoping for her to say it was fine if you needed to lessen your workload except you can't because you're crying and can't talk and then she's still aggravated because it was a misunderstanding and she thought you were being lazy because you were acting like it wasn't a big deal, and then you get to where you were driving and she starts talking to her friend and you're trying to casually look away from them so they can't see your face and your mom's like "oh go say hi" even though you're literally crying and you have to be polite and say hi even though you are actually fucking crying and

Yeah isn't that just the greatest feeling ever
