In the Julian Calendar that the Ancient Romans used once it had been introduced by Julius Caesar in 46 BCE, instead of adding a 29th day to February every four years, they just repeated a day. So, every four years they had February the 24th twice. That’s right, twice!
The thing is, they didn’t call it February the 24th, in their way of thinking they knew it as...
Jacob: What bitch doesn't want my dick?
Me: Jacob, having a dog lick your penis really isn't much of an accomplishment. Really, those guys lick anything which resembles meat/moisture even just slightly.

I’ll wrap you in a cocoon of pretty words and wisdom, and make you, my little ball of potential poetry, fall in love with me. Because it’s probably easy to fall in love with someone who thinks of you as a pretty ideal.

Anonymous asked: Sorry for being hopeless, but how many followers is 'a lot' to gain in a short span of time? For example, I got about fifty new followers overnight. Is that normal or is that worthy of having an introductory post? Haha.

i remember once i was talking to cory, and she said something like, “you know those posts people make when they get a lot of followers and introduce themselves? i’ve never gained enough followers in a small span of time to even be able to do that.” and i was like yeah me neither. but things have changed! i was going to write an about me page sometime soon anyway, but i don’t like...
the only thing I really want to do is learn about things
but not through practice
I don’t really like practicing things at all
mostly that’s boring
but that’s supposed to teach me lessons about being a functioning human being or something
and ugh “work ethic” why must you be so deficient in me and then taunt me so by your abundance in all the people I admire

let's just all get something straight:

On a weekly basis, John Green (and in fairness Hank as well) takes steps to ensure that the people who watch his videos feel comfortable with themselves, especially in their nerddom, the very thing society teaches you not to feel comfortable with/to hate about yourselves because it rejects common ideas of “cool,” which include annoying guidelines along the lines of “apathetic” and...

staying up last night was a bad idea
consuming sweet things all day was another bad idea

neophytical replied to your post: I have decided that sleep is not necessary for me…
But school and such. :( Don’t leave me alooone.
Pfft, I’ll still be at school. The point of staying up to do things is so that I can do more things, not so that I can’t do the things I already do.
I have decided that sleep is not necessary for me and I will stay up as late as bearable and do as many things as possible

went for a run this morning
was late for school
received super positive feedback on my English assignment
had detention for being late to school but it was okay because all you have to do in detention is be quiet so I read some more of Paper Towns
hung out with Jenna in the city and stumbled around bookstores
came home and was super productive with assignment things

The Truth About Pigs in Animal Farms →
The more I read about the conditions in animal farms, the more I can’t help but despise the way in which we absentmindedly support this speciesist culture.
