After his speech, President Obama exchanged an emotional embrace with Shigeaki Mori, 79, a bomb survivor who spent decades after the war researching the fates of American prisoners of war who were killed when the city was bombed.
the first…??!? The first….. that shit dropped in 1945……….
she’s not dead, she just didnt get any dialogue in the book that was supposed to focus around her family and was banished to an island with her gf instead of getting an actual plot line
@ shadowhunters fandom: i know nothing about the show but like is simon the hot girl? like scott was in teen wolf? cause all over my dash i’m seeing gifs the blonde guy carrying him, the vampire guy carrying him, isabel or whatever making these bright smiles with him on the same gif and ginger chick from coachella is his friend -with benefits???? i’m confused, cause it looks like the only one not dating him is the male katniss cause he is dating harry potter
ok so here’s something I desperately wish someone had told my gay ass at age 15, so if you’re a teenage lesbian this post is for you:
you aren’t on a schedule to Experience Things!!! I know it’s hard because you have to watch your straight friends go through puberty, get boyfriends, break up with them and get boyfriends again. They talk about kissing and eventually sex and you, well you don’t. You feel like you aren’t being a teenager the right way and with every month that goes by without you having kissed a boy it just gets worse. Until you finally figure out you’re gay.
But here’s the thing: Straight people get a head start compared to lesbians. I mean, being a teenager is never easy but just think about that hefty extra workload of emotions and issues we have to go through. All flavors of compulsory heterosexuality, the stress of being closeted, the stress of coming out etc. etc. That takes time! Time that straight people are already using to make awkward, and then less awkward Teenager Experiences. While you’re still busy Struggling.
So what I’m trying to say here is, I’m 22 and I’m only getting really started on all that now! But I can already promise you that there are so many gay things in store for you and that they’ll wait for you until you’re good and ready, no matter how long that takes, so don’t even worry.
lmao imagine someone trying to save bitty from being “bullied” by the samwell men’s hockey team because they saw bitty looking sad while being surrounded by 6′+ guys
at this point bitty is just used to people being weirded out that he’s on the hockey team
OKAY BUT
Dave’s a decent guy. He’s new to Samwell, arrived on an LAX scholarship, and is super pumped to be going to such an LGBTQ-friendly campus. He’s out, proud, and 6 ft 3, so if anyone’s got a problem with him he can show them where to shove it.
The thing about Dave is, he’s a bleeding-hearts kind of guy. So when he sees this small, blonde, extremely attractive guy being harassed by a bunch of dudes Dave’s height, he knows he has to step in. As he approaches the group of boys from across the road, Dave can see the skates the ginger one’s got thrown over his shoulder.
The hockey team, he thinks darkly. He’s heard all about the Samwell Men’s Hockey Team from the LAX bros. A bunch of assholes if ever there was one, apparently. And he can see it now as the blonde guy’s face falls even further, face scrunching up to stop tears as the hockey players crowd him. Suddenly the blonde guy is hidden from view by tall backs, and Dave’s had enough.
“Hey!” he shouts, causing a couple of them to glance around. “Hey, assholes!”
The SMH turn to glare at him in full force, revealing the blonde guy between them. A handsome, dark skinned dude holds an arm in front of the smaller one as if stopping him from escaping.
(In retrospect, Dave probably should have realized he was being protective.)
