Did I ever tell you guys the story of how I got a letter from President Obama on my 13th birthday?

No, please share

Okay, so when Jewish boys/girls turn thirteen, they have a ceremony called a bar/bat mitzvah. It’s a way to symbolize that we have become a young man/young woman, and it’s a big rite of passage for us.

At the time of my bat mitzvah, my uncle, who serves in the navy, had a job at the white house (one time he gave me and my family a tour, but that’s a story for another day). So, he worked at the white house, and it’s not like he was hanging out with the president all the time or anything spectacular, but he did know my uncle by his first name, so that was cool and important.

Anyways, a little while after my bat mitzvah and my 13th birthday, I received this in the mail:

At first I was already like, “whaaa??” My parents didn’t seem to know what it was about either. So I opened it, and, lo and behold:

along with:

So…yeah. My uncle was able to get the former president of the united states to send me a letter congratulating me on my bat mitzvah when I turned 13. Hope you enjoyed my story!

This is officially the Lucky Obama Birthday post, reblog and you’ll get a special present on your next birthday

“Every character has a specific color — it’s a nice way of giving people their own identity. We use color like comic books do, with each character staying in their lane as far their palette goes: T’Challa is purple, Okoye is red, and Nakia is green.

[Nakia] is the No. 1 warrior in the River tribe and her look was inspired by the Suri tribe in Africa,” says Carter. “Green signifies water, a coastal community, leaves and plants — they live in a lush area, as opposed to the perception that Africa is arid and dry.” - Black Panther costume designer Ruth Carter

Whether or not you wanna admit it, Peter Pettigrew was a Marauder–the map reads Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs. Not Moony, Padfoot, Prongs, and Karen Gillan as Lily Evans.

@vikingcarrot it is are HP days summed up lol. Except Karen Gillan wasn’t the Lily face model.of the month :P

RIGHT?

We just suddenly got transported back 10-12 years and people are still trying to pretend Peter wasn’t a ‘true’ Marauder, and that the other three weren’t actually shitty little bullies but beautiful cinnamon rolls.

Like, just admit that he was one of the four, and admit that they were all basically selfish bullying scumbags. It’s okay to accept the truth.
