I just discovered a band I'd never heard of by finding two of their albums in a mysterious plastic bag in an abandoned school building. Finally, I'm at the start of a fantasy novel
To make things even weirder they're called Vampire Weekend and they appear to be some kind of weird One Direction knock off from 2008? If forced to describe their music I'd say maybe soft rock, but honestly I have no idea. They're kinda good though??
you guys CAN NOT tell me Vampire Weekend was actually popular this is so embarrassing I'm going to take the high dive off a cliff
I HATE YOU GUYS SO MUCH 😭
I'm going to kill myself for real
Please don't let me go down in Tumblr history as the guy who's never heard of Vampire Weekend 😭
You guys are tearing me apart for this one but what I hate is that you're actually being really funny about it
Broke: Imma kick your ass
Woke: You are invited to join me on the
I didn't go all the way to Yorkshire for 72 notes

i found this in my drafts and i have no memory making it but it’s literally so fucking funny to me like i might as well die now because nothing will ever be funnier than this ,
youd think a band named violent femmes would be made up of violent femmes. but it isnt. its dudes
genuinely no mary... the australian dollar is not doing great right now
i need to type with more of an accent
youse may bloody reckon a band name of violent femmes'd be a buncha sheilas after a couple bundy cokes. but it aint. packa blokes.
being obsessed with your own ocs is its own kind of torment nexus. "i miss them so much :(((" and they're literally in your brain.
"aw man there's not fanart of them" and "i want to read fics about them" and "why isn't anyone talking about them" because you gotta do it all by yourself
"Rings" by ND Stevenson
My absolute favourite comic journal by Stevenson. Made me cry my eyes out. Even when I can't articulate it, it gets to the core of what I think love is.
Watching movies with small children is an EXPERIENCE, like tiny human, you have NO sense of story progression
Which is to say we put on the first How to Train Your Dragon
And at the dramatic "first flight" scene, two-year-old shouted "HIM FALL" and started SOBBING. She straight up thought that movie had murdered Hiccup and Toothless halfway through. Had to get double parental hugs and a constant stream of reassurances until they figured that whole flying thing out
All movies could be horror movies if your brain hasn't equipped Plot Armor to the protagonists
Anyway five-year-old is pleased to report that he "liked the part where the big dragon exploded"
#Welcome to the action adventure genre my children#Five year old was VIBRATING through the climax like straight up legs kicking fists clenched#Had to be held by Spouse until we figured out he wasn't afraid#He was experiencing baby's first blood lust#Kid wanted that dragon DEAD and it HAPPENED and he was VIOLENTLY SATISFIED
I have a somewhat related story that I've always wanted to share.
At my old high school, one of our graduation requirements was to do 10 hours of community service. I decided I would knock out one or two of those hours reading to kids at the nearby elementary school during my free period. I brought this book here:
Which is just a collection of all the classic Disney movies adapted into book form. I ended up reading Cinderella to a group of kindergarteners.
When I got to the part where Cinderella's stepsisters ripped apart her first dress, all the children were on the edge of their seats. One little girl was on the verge of tears. Another little girl shouted in horror, "She doesn't get to go to the ball?!"
I can't even begin to tell you how tempted I was to immediately close the book and go "Yup, that's life, kid" and walk off without missing a beat.
I’m just an easy mark for dumb pilot humor. Today the captain was like “we’re now at altitude, feel free to move around, my one rule is you must stay inside the plane” and I lost it. It’s funny because you would die a horrible death akin to standing unencumbered on Pluto
who I am thinking of when I say “girl, help” and “girl, save me” btw
“what if god was just a stranger on the bus” what if she was in a messy situationship with a family of pretty boys, ever think of that?
You’re so right. God is the friends you make along the way
