I Am So Worried About What's Happening In The News And Politics Even Though I Can Barely Understand Them.

Hundred of people died a few days ago in a big fire in Greece. The survivors dont have homes because the fire burned them down. Some people of the area made this bank account so if anyone would like to help will be able to donate. Families with little kids are homeless. The whole country is mourning.

Hey uhm my Tia Cande passed away. Pls help my family and cousins bury my aunt.

This woman was my and my brother’s mother when our own didn’t have the time for us…. Pls anything will help or just even getting the word out…

here’s a new fic about Lance bein a Druid and Keith bein part of the Blade!

Summmary:

After Keith was born, his mother took him and his father to the Blade to survive and help. While leaving, Lotor asks her to take his brother Lance with her and she does. They make it to the base where they train the two to get stronger and help take down Zarkon. Everything changed years later when the two get a mission to save the Champion from the arena because Druid Izabel sensed that he was going to help. He, along with Lance and Keith, were Paladins of the ancient Voltron that none thought would be found.

“what are you reading?”

“its a…online book.”

Got some new canvases for Christmas and got into the painting mood. Decided to paint a sunset with clouds. Mostly clouds. It been a long time since I painted something, I can't even remember the last time I did something like this. I spent most of my day sitting and just painting. It was awesome!!

stay alive not because your mother will never stop crying but because you can look up at the sky on a sunny day and see the clouds moving by and you’ll take a moment to wonder if it is because the earth is spinning or because the wind is blowing stay alive so you can answer that question stay alive so you can ask someone else that question, then wow them by knowing the answer or be wowed that they already knew it as well stay alive because you’re never too old to look up at the sky and see figures in the shapes of clouds a cumulonimbus that looks like a dog will never fail to make you smile stay alive not because your father will blame himself for the loss of his baby but because your favorite band might come out with a new song or your favorite show might get renewed for a new season or your favorite person might like your tweet on twitter stay alive because the future is unclear and that may seem terrifying, not knowing what’s to come, but it’s worth taking that chance gambling is never a safe bet but the house always wins and you, my dear, are the house stay alive not because your best friend will never forgive themselves for losing you but because of the feeling you get when you do see your best friend that calmness, that peace, that happiness – that feeling is genuine happiness and yes, you are capable of experiencing it you’re allowed to experience it you’re allowed to be happy stay alive because you’re allowed to be happy and there are countless reasons to feel that joy radiate like sunbeams like licking melted ice cream off of your hand as it drips from the cone or the way the world slowly changes from green to orange in autumn or seeing the first snowfall of winter or that first sip of a hot beverage when you’re absolutely freezing or wearing your favorite underwear or finally seeing the Big Dipper at night or the perfect amount of Parmesan cheese on top of your pasta or your pet crawling into your lap stay alive because at least one of those things make you happy and you should experience it one more time stay alive not because i’ll miss you but because one day life will feel the way a brand new notebook feels - intimidating, but exciting and more importantly, a fresh start stay alive because you deserve to be around for that fresh start

Captain America: Civil War AU (Manip)

Let’s be honest, if Peggy were around, Civil War would never have happened.

I feel like I need to say something about this…

Everyone hating season 7 for the LGBTQA+ rep is digging themselves deeper into a ditch. Joaquim Dos Santos and Lauren Montgomery are the showrunners of the show yes.

But they don’t have all the say.

Dreamworks is a corporation. This is the capitalist America you live in. They don’t care about why you hated this season. They don’t care that you’re angry because you want better representation. They’re never gonna see that. Harassing the showrunners and voice actors who fought so hard to get representation is not the way to voice your criticism. Find out who the people are at the top of the food chain. Express your concerns to them. Email them. Send them letters. Reach out to THEM. Not the crew of Voltron. And here’s the other thing.

Again. Corporations don’t care about you. They care about making money, how high their ratings are, and when you decide to rate the season with LGBTQA+ rep BADLY, they’re not going to think “well we have to do better”

Nope. They’re going to think “we shouldn’t have gay representation in our cartoons in the future. It won’t do well.”

It’s a showrunners worst nightmare and a corporations “I told you so.”

You’re not doing any good this way. I understand why you’re upset. There are things that could’ve been handled better but what we got is literally what they were allowed to give us. Shiro is great representation. He breaks so many stereotypes. He’s a POC, disabled, neurotypical gay man with a chronic illness BUT HE’S ALSO. THE FORMER LEADER OF VOLTRON. NOW CAPTAIN OF THE ATLAS. SOMEONE EVERYONE LOVES, ADMIRES AND LOOKS UP TO AND TRUSTS WITH NO QUESTION. HE LITERALLY LEADS TEAM EARTH RIGHT NOW.

I for one am so grateful for him. For SHIRO. Our MAIN representation. If you put your anger for the mistreatment of the rest of the queer characters out on the wrong people, on the crew who had the best intentions at heart and worked so hard… on the show and it’s ratings.. it’ll be MUCH harder for there to be more representation like Takashi Shirogane.

Please understand that there are other factors at play. As sad as it sounds, for a brighter future filled with more diversity on screen, we have to treat every queer character we get as a win. We have to be happy with what we get. Because again. Corporations don’t care that we want better rep and no amount of social media backlash is going to change that, they only care about their ratings. But hey… I personally think we got of great rep in Shiro and I loved season 7.

So in Rise there’s a small running gag where whenever one of his family members try to assume what Leo’s doing it cuts to him doing basically the opposite of what they’ve just said.

Raph: Hey! Where’s Leo?

Mikey: I’m sure wherever he is, he’s trying to save us

Raph: Leo probably talked his way straight into Big Mamma’s dungeon 

But the interesting thing about this gag is the reverse isn’t true, when Leo guesses his families actions he’s almost always correct in predicting their actions

Leo: Look I bet the only reason we’re here right now is ‘cause Donnie inputted coordinates 

Donnie: After inputting Shredder’s previous coordinates on the X-Y-Z and D for Donnie axis, I have calculated that this is the sight of our final resting spot

Leo: Mikey Razzed his Tazz

Mikey: Whip-o-Rama!

Leo: April finally used her crane license

April: ‘Why would you get a crane license April?’ BECAUSE THIS!

Leo: And Raph is going to put it all together in a plan to defeat that led head with this mystic collar 

Raph: Wow Leo that’s remarkably accurate 

Leo being able to predict his families actions to a near perfect accuracy shows his skill as a strategist & potential as a leader but the fact that the reverse isn’t true, that Leo’s family CAN’T seem to predict Leo’s actions to a almost humorous degree shows that while Leo has an understanding of his family, his family fails to truly understand him.

I just can’t stop thinking about the fact that Leo knows his family far better than they know him.

“Everyone sound off.”
