mind-bogglingly curious: An Open Letter to Dan Abnett & Andy Lanning →

Dear DnA,
I appreciate you taking the time to answer several questions about the latest developments and what’s upcoming for the New Mutants series you’ve recently taken over writing. The New Mutants is an X-book I have adored and supported for a long time and it was exciting to see and know…

2) The therapy issue seemed to have a lot of victim-blaming going on, most of which was directed at Sam. The psychological aspects of what these mutants go through day in and day out with their missions and their closeness to extinction felt heavy-handed by the therapist. What exactly did he…
So everyone who’s on the EAST COAST, I hope you’re all okay.
Earthquakes are never fun.
Fucked Up Response To Coming Out Or Revealing That One Is Asexual, Demisexual, Grey-a Or Anything Else Part Of The Asexual Spectrum:
“That’s boring”.
Excuse you, but some of us, (and this includes many sexuals) do not see dating, relationships and/or sex as the most fun activity/activities possible.
This goes for everyone for pretty much every aspect of life:
Stop projecting yourself and your own experiences and opinions onto everyone else. There is no “normal”.
Can I just put out there, tumblr, that the internet needs SOMEONE to please draw Jono Starsmore aka CHAMBER or DECIBEL or WHATEVER as Eeyore.
This would make my day forever.
Trying to decide what comics to actually bring to Fan Expo to get signed IS RIDICULOUSLY HARD.
Like do I need ALL of Leonard Kirk’s run signed? Or every one of the Dazzler’s that I own that Bill Sqhafdjgjl did art on? Or just one? Do I really want Pixie Strikes Back signed when I know I’ll probably never read it again? Do I even want to bother with Nextwave—well, no that one’s actually answerable. That’s a no.
And I so need to buy another long box.

This is totally how their dates go in game. I HOPE YOU KNOW THAT.

A cruel event is scheduled where snapping turtles will be SLAMMED TO THE GROUND, swung around repeatedly, and have their heads yanked from their shells…

Are we fucking SERIOUS here? Fucking kids are always gonna find a way to learn about sex. Big fucking deal. Rather than putting your child in a bubble, EDUCATE your child about sex. Of course kids are gonna think about sex. That is why you give them proper sexual education. I don’t necessarily agree with young teenagers having sex, BUT I know I can’t stop it from happening and would rather them have access to all forms of birth control and be safe rather than having them engage in risky sexual activity.
Are you fucking kidding me? I spent years with my nose in a dictionary. I still love them. How many of us had teachers tell us to “go look it up” if we didn’t know how to spell something? How are we going to educate children without tools with which to, you know, EDUCATE them?!
“Perhaps it’s not that surprising that a mother in Menifee, California, asked the Menifee Union School District to ban all copies of the 10th edition of Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary after her child stumbled across the term “oral sex.” What is surprising, indeed horrifying, is that district officials immediately complied with her request, and pulled all dictionaries off classroom shelves throughout the Southern California school district, which serves 9,000 kids, kindergarten through eighth grade.”
…I need to scream for a few lifetimes now.
WELL TUMBLR WON’T LET ME REBLOG THIS SO
twbasketcase reblogged you:
It’s okay, Jess, if you prefer to spell things correctly. No one should look down on historically accurate English!!

I figure this is just me practicing the correct spelling for when I move to England or PEI to teach!!
I’m painting things on the walls at my school, and in the Housekeeping area by the dress up clothes I wanted to paint the phrase “My favourite things” so I did.
And then I realized I had put the U in favourite.
I’m just going to hope that no one else notices this. It’s not like the four year olds can even read that word…it does make the word prettier though.
“She got a little upset. Girls do that.”

Last night I had this awesome dream about a flying shark who didn’t need to live in the ocean to survive. It just flew in the sky and through apartment windows, biting people’s heads off for sustenance and evil.
When I woke up, I thought it was a movie.
I wish it was…
OMG that’s why I hate 3D too. It is so hard to watch a movie with TWO SETS OF GLASSES ON.
Last night I had this awesome dream about a flying shark who didn’t need to live in the ocean to survive. It just flew in the sky and through apartment windows, biting people’s heads off for sustenance and evil.
When I woke up, I thought it was a movie.
I wish it was because I would like to see a movie about a flying shark.
That sounds like an even better movie than the one that’s taking place in like a lake somehow with the stupid people who keep getting back in the water.
