a few years ago i made a bunch of events set for random dates in 2018 & 2019 & forgot about them but now they’re all slowly approaching so here are some of my favorites
from “architectural ornamentalism: detailing in the craft tradition”, 1987.
this looks like shit!!
this fills me with deep, intrinsic fear
this looks fucking awesome don’t pretend it’s not cooler than “bricks placed all in the same direction”
oh no, it’s definitely a far cooler concept, it just terrifies me!
Ok, but how dramatic does it look when the only light is the fire in the grate because this is baller as hell in daytime alone.
Now imagine cleaning it
That’s the job of the little elves that live in the nooks in crannies.
I’m lovin it.
This post fails to include the entire context and point of this stunt, which was to protest the lack of Asian representation in US media and advertising. And the legit HEIST including fake McDonalds uniforms that they had to pull off to get it up

Guys, there’s a follow up:
McDonald’s wants more Asian-American representation in their marketing, and is going to feature both Maravilla and Toledo in an upcoming campaign. But the good news doesn’t end there — each will be given a $25,000 check for their participation in the promotion.
They were on the Ellen Show. (video)
As far as the picture goes, a member of McDonald’s corporate office reached out and told them it had to be removed for renovation purposes, but it was going to be auctioned off and the proceeds would go to the Ronald McDonald House Houston charity.
well this is pathetic!
tomorrow is my birthday. it will be the 3rd I’ve had since my only parent died.
I’ve spent most of this afternoon going through the various things my dad posted on my facebook wall throughout the years- specifically for my birthdays. he always baked me a cake, every year. it was nothing special (chocolate with more chocolate) and he certainly wasn’t a cake decorator, but he was always so proud to shakily write my name in frosting. he was always so proud of me.
since his untimely, unexpected death, I am now responsible for his $80k mortgage (which I’ve just learned has to be paid off very soon, or my childhood home will be foreclosed on), I have developed serious physical medical problems from stress/trauma (undiagnosed currently- which in this case means either i have hemorrhoids or more severe internal bleeding), and I can’t afford health insurance at any level to potentially help cure me or god forbid save my life, because I recently had to quit working when my car broke down on the job (which also puts me out the cost of a new car that can drive on snow and ice 😛). I am dealing with my estranged mother withholding money for me that she got from his will, which somehow was never taken out of her name after my parents divorced was finalized. I am also homeless, as the first group of people I tried renting my house to were ‘friends’ who destroyed the home nearly beyond repair. I could no longer stomach to live there after the things they said to me about my dead father, nor could I afford electric/utility bills AND the mortgage all alone. and that is very much only the beginning. I don’t want to give a sob story. I just don’t want anyone to think I would be doing this kind of thing if my circumstances weren’t dire.
I know and am beyond grateful for the fact that I have it better than many, many, many people. but I am having a harder time right now than I ever expected to have in my very young and already previously quite traumatic life. I am so tired and devastated every day by the pressure money puts on me atop the grief I am still reeling from: being orphaned back when I was only 17. I had no chance to prepare, and now I have no one to fall back on.
tl;dr
I would really like to have a cake for my birthday for the first time in 3 years, and I would even more so like to try and improve the miserable quality of life I’m currently experiencing. if you think you have even a dollar to spare for some random idiot orphan, I would do anything to return the favor to you.

My laptop charger stopped working yesterday and I need to replace it immediately because I need my laptop for school (I take all of my classes online). I can’t afford it though because i have like 20 dollars until next tuesday and those chargers cost like 80. I’m struggling enough as it is just being in school with untreated ADHD so I could really use some support. I cannot afford to fall behind right now. If you can spare anything pls feel free to do so. Thanks in advance

Personally I always felt like Hobbits age at roughly the same rate as exceptionally healthy humans and that the reason they don’t come of legal age until 33 is because have you met people in their 20s because Tolkien did
Funny: Pippin is an idiot because he’s not an adult yet.
Funnier: Pippin is an idiot because he’s 28.
I read that as “of lethal age” no less than 3 times
Hobbits receive their license to kill at 33.
