I Never Talk About These Things But I Can’t Remain Silent.

i never talk about these things but i can’t remain silent.

i know tumblr doesn’t give a SHIT when things happen in countries outside the “most popular ones” (such as the usa & england). it’s true, don’t lie to me. y’all don’t give A FUCK. not every issue and problem in said countries gets the appropriate exposure but in general shit shows up on the news WORLD FREAKING  WIDE. you set up donations, you help out, your spread the word, you say “pray for x”……

southern europe is burning. 

my country is burning.

people are dying - at home, on the road, trying to run away, in their cars.

yesterday my country had 300 active fires.

people are losing EVERYTHING they own.

i have a friend that is on a train right now passing through places that have been burnt to the ground and she says the smoke is so intense it’s getting inside the train and she can barely breathe.

and yet, even though several people (myself included) have been trying to bring awareness to what has been happening in southern europe… what we get from most of you, those not part of the countries suffering, is silence. we don’t ask for money, we don’t ask for shit other than a reblog to spread awareness… something you can delete in 24/48hrs if you wish. 

i don’t know what to tell you. i’m angry. i’m frustrated. i’m disappointed. i feel like i’m screaming into the void. “a reblog does nothing” - you know that’s a damn lie, you know exposure always helps, you know people start paying attention when posts on social media become popular. my country in particular is a small one, we get ZERO exposure. y’all are only starting to figure out we even fucking exist bc of the shit we’ve been winning lately. 

but hell, if the EU doesn’t give a shit, why should some user on tumblr dot com?

again, i don’t know what to tell you so i’ll let the images speak for themselves:

reblog if vampires are valid and your blog is a vampire safe zone

Every author has that one character that's like a puppy they keep throwing at a wall. Like they love the character but they just keep doing terrible stuff to it. Sorry edie, matt, nicole, obsidian, and lexi.<- My punching bags that I don't want to punch but have to for plot purposes. I'm sorry to all my fictional children that I am cruel to.

Girl scouts these days selling cookies in the good for nothing mall back in my day we sat in the cold for hours and only sold four boxes becouse people felt bad for us.

Kids these days have it easy, what happened to the good old days where our negligent parents would go on a trip to Florida over the chirstmas holidays and due to a power outage the night before leaving, arrive late and unorganized to the air port, leaving me, Kevin Mccallister behind at the house, alone, home, defending myself against 2 robbers trying to murder me. Kids these days can’t just “mindcraft” their way out of attempted murder and home invasion, they barely know how to set up booby traps and hit people with paint cans.

This reminds me about how I still get barbies from relatives and I didn't even like barbies when I was younger.

it’s just so funny how you can just click with some people but not others, like you can meet a new friend who completely gets you in like 2 weeks and yet have a parent or relative who still doesn’t know your simplest likes and dislikes after 20 years. its weird

most intimidating things about the signs

*also check moon

Aries: the fact that they may take everything a little too personally and erupt in some short bursts of anger...you almost never know when you're gonna say something that offends them

Taurus: you can never get to them to change their stance or opinion on things..they can be extremely materialistic and possessive at times and so obsessed with their own comfort that if you try to change their routine...rip

Gemini: they're definitely charming to a fault, and often alternate between 'naughty' and 'nice'..they're the best at making comments that may appear sweet or innocent but actually meant to be catty or judgemental

Cancer: that they'll never tell you how they're really feeling and instead take all their emotions out on themselves. they'll seclude themselves into a bubble of negativity and mixed emotions and never let you in, often resulting in them appearing moody or even unnecessarily angry at times

Leo: one word: pride. they're pride may cause them to be stubborn, unnecessarily defensive, and domineering. they are extremely protective of their ego and will do absolutely ANYTHING to defend it. In the moments where they ego is challenged they may say hurtful things they don't mean and may forget them later

Virgo: how they are very critical of themselves and others. they are also very sharp tongued, quick, and calculative so if you get into an argument with them, they will always know where to hit you and how hard

Libra: how they're passive aggressive af. they will 'try' hard to hide they're feelings but they come off very transparent and moody at times. they can also change their personality to fit whoever they're with which is can be oddly comforting at times but also very confusing.

Scorpio: how controlling and aggressive they can be.. they're very slow to forget and slow to forgive. they are extremely intuitive and have the ability to size up anyone or any situation in a matter of seconds. they are very unpredictable and may appear silent while experiencing varying intense emotions of anger, despair, or sadness.

Sagittarius: their mouths!! they have no filter..you never know what they are gonna say to you next. their honesty and bluntness can be seen as either a blessing or a curse. they're prone to exaggerating and boasting due to their love for power and status

Capricorn: their pOKer FACE.. they make you wonder if they actually have emotions with how focused and calculative they can be. they have a natural sense to boss people around in the most affective matter..they can inadvertently end up belittling you when talking about their goals and motivations

Aquarius: they can effortlessly make you feel small with their high level of intellect. they require a lot of space and freedom to do what they like and may appear aloof at times

Pisces: that they care...a little bit too much..they can often let their emotions get the best of them and then turn into someone or something they're not. very unpredictable people who at times may appear act childish and innocent while they really have the ability to tear you into pieces

I like the art and the caption.

 No We Will Not Get Over Nicki! Hes My Favoret Vampire ...

Scene From “The Vampire Lestat” Where He Visited theatre Once Again But This Time As A Vampire.

Scene from “The Vampire Lestat” where he visited theatre once again but this time as a vampire. And met Nicolas de Lenfent. 

*Sob*  Everything about this character is rather depressively sad but yet so little words about his thoughts. I’ll never get through my grief about Nicolas. Why in the hell am I reading this book again? Why it ended up this bad for Nicolas? May be this time I’ll be able to find the real answer. (but I suspect life of Nicolas could be… less doomed if Lestat wasn’t both selfish and good-hearted)
