Now Playing Tracks

        I was playing Minecraft, and I decided to go north with no materials other than the items i already had in pockets. For two REAL days I have spent my time going nothing but north. I eventually reached an ocean and I jumped in and swam…and swam… I was running out of food and just as i was about to give up and drown myself, i stumbled upon the most amazing thing i have ever seen. An island of 1 block sticking out of the ocean with a red rose resting on top. Against all odds, that one rose grew on that one block. This has given me hope, and i must believe that against all odds, I too can live on. I must keep going.

that was the most inspiring thing i’ve ever read

“… will let it continue to operate as an independent business.”

Here you my followers. 

calm your titties~ <3

Oh, good… *Sighs so loud that anyone in a ten mile radius can hear me*

So all this means is that Tumblr got over a billion dollars and they still get to do whatever they want. 

Friendly reminder that

  • Tumblr will remain independent
  • Yahoo bought it because Tumblr was getting too expensive
  • The only thing changing will be the one’s legally owning Tumblr
  • There will remain absolutely no restrictions on gifs/fics/pictures/edits/porn/terms and conditions
  • The terms and conditions will remain the same
  • Tumblr’s options were to shut Tumblr down or get funds

The original story of the little mermaid is that she must kill the prince in order to be human, and in the end, she loves him too much and kills herself instead.

The artwork is too great not to reblog. 

Ok, ok - important expansion: she only has to kill the Prince because the deal was if he fell in love with her she could be human forever, and he didn’t. By which I mean, he was a good person and genuinely nice to her, but he didn’t fall in love. He fell in love with someone else, also perfectly nice - not the seawitch in disguise, fu Disney. The Mermaid is told she can only return to the sea now if she kills the Prince. She goes into the room where he and his lover lie sleeping and they look so beautiful and happy together that she can’t do it.

That’s why she kills herself. And because it was a noble act she returns to sea as foam.

One moral of the story was that women shouldn’t fundamentally change who they are for love of a man, and in theory Han Christian Anderson wrote it for a ballerina with whom he fell in love. She was marrying someone else who wouldn’t let her dance.
