blog hiatus

one day I might be active on tumblr again but probably not soon

I could make all kinds of excuses, but honestly, it isn’t fun for me right now and I don’t want to force things and ruin it. I’ll still check messages and come on occasionally but I’m taking an extended break, otherwise

Apparently my niece wouldn’t stop talking about twenty one pilots and how she wishes she could see them but the show is sold out, and even made my mom listen to a bunch of their songs last weekend but! Guess who already bought two tickets! For her 13th birthday! And I’m getting us a fancy hotel room at the hotel attached to the venue!

She has NO IDEA and I’ve been so close to cracking and telling her so many times. I HAVE TO last another month til her birthday, I MUST BE STRONG

I’m the best aunt ever, I just wanted to let ya’ll know

today’s the day

I finally get to tell her this afternoon

I put the tickets in a box. And then I put that box in another box. And another box and another box and THEN one more box. And I wrapped every single box in a different wrapping paper

she still has no idea

Load video

I had my sister start recording when she got to the last box

The new girl at my regular Starbucks was very excited to see my dog and learn that her name is Princess Leia

“Your dog is so pretty! Would she like a cup of whipped cream?”

My dog would love a cup of whipped cream. My dog loves whipped cream so much that she recognizes that the Starbucks sign means whipped cream and starts drooling when we pull up to the drive thru. Her Saturday morning “puppy latte” is the highlight of her week.

Sidenote, reactions to my dog are the highlight of MY week.

I have a 2-seater sports car so Princess the fluffy long-haired German Shepherd rides shotgun and watching people in other cars or on the sidewalk notice her is the best thing ever.

Once two boys (about 8 and 12) in the backseat of another car dropped whatever they were doing to stare and I saw them tell the parents "that's the coolest dog I've ever seen!"

I feel kind of like a terrible person because I have tickets for 2 Green Day dates when everyone on the reddit is complaining about not being able to get one date even though they were waiting for them to go on sale And I'm over here with Chicago and Columbus tickets

Okay but you cannot convince me for one second that Clint doesn’t talk to Bucky about his own experiences being brainwashed. 

“They’re going to tell you it’s not your fault,” he says one day, maybe in the training room, maybe over a cup of coffee. Bucky looks up, half-listening because he still doesn’t sleep very well and he and Barton haven’t exactly had reason to chat. “What you did when you were brainwashed. And it’s not, it’s not your fault, but somehow, people saying that doesn’t mean a goddamn thing. They weren’t there, they don’t know what it means to get ripped out of your head and see your body used to kill.”

Now he has Bucky’s attention, but Bucky just lifts his coffee cup to his lips and doesn’t make eye contact. “And you do?”

“You were under when Thor’s psycho little brother tried the whole ‘take over the world’ bit, but he used me to do it.” Clint’s voice shakes a little, even after all this time. “I know it wasn’t my fault, and so do you, but that doesn’t make it any easier to wash the blood off.” He swallows a sip of his coffee uncomfortably and stands. He’s said his piece. 

“What does?” Bucky says before Clint can go two steps. “What helps?”

“You’ve got to find some kind of redemption,” Clint replies. “And someone to talk to.”

As the archer walks away, Bucky thinks that he may already have the latter.

The USO actor who played Hitler for Steve's show in later years becomes a civil rights worker. When asked about the danger of KKK, he quips, "I survived 300 punches from Captain America."

I’m so in love with this headcanon. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the life and times of the USO girls from his show, but not really about show-Hitler. Of course he spends his life fighting for the little guy - he shared a room with Steve for so long it rubbed off on him a bit.

You reblogged this headcanon from Long Ago and I've been mulling over expanding it for days now
