Being abused at home, bullied at school and lost in the world, the library and all the books I could escape to the most amazing worlds, kept me alive!

I would walk to the library, and spend all day, from 10 am to 9 pm reading there!! I got special awards for how many books I read, I wrote little blurbs on why i loved the books (probably why I love to BETA and do ARCs) 

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE Just hit the green arrows and the reblog!!!

As a 50 year old woman, the library offers me so much. Digital art pads to borrow, 3D printing, book clubs that are face to face (yeah, the introvert likes face to face because a moderator will stomp on anyone getting snarky)

New books in LARGE PRINT! I’m visually challenged and as much as I love my kindle, The feel of a real book in my hands will always be a beloved feeling!

Read banned books!

Oftentimes they arrange events for kids and teenagers, atleast in my country. It could be harder for adults but there are events for them also.

Their attack, which took place on 27 March 1943, was partially successful, and they managed to destroy 800,000 identity cards, and retrieve 600 blank cards and 50,000 guilders. The building was blown up and no one was caught on the night of the attack. However, due to an unknown betrayer, Arondéus was arrested on 1 April 1943. Arondéus refused to give up the rest of his team.

Arondéus was openly gay before the war and defiantly asserted his sexuality before his execution. His final words were:

"Tell the people that homosexuals are not by definition weak."

That leads me to my next point, IF ANYONE BELIEVES THAT JACK CAN FIT ON THE DOOR FRAME (it was a door frame not a door, literally one look at it and you would know that) IS STUPID!!!

Firstly, do you people just forget logic, physics, BUOYANCY?! Secondly, one bird’s eye view of that door frame you would know you wouldn’t be able to fit another person. Thirdly, THE LITERAL DIRECTOR, JAMES CAMERON, HAS PROVEN THAT JACK WOULDN’T HAVE FIT!!

You all just sound so stupid and wrong when you try to prove that he could when he obviously couldn’t. Also not to mention when Jack first brought Rose over to the frame, he tried to get on it, I don’t know if it’s because people miss it or ignore it but it’s there, he tried to get on but the frame started to sink and they both couldn’t get on it. Another thing, and this may just because I love the movie and the story too much, but Jack had to die, it’s literally the whole point of the movie. So even if he could fit, it changes the whole movie.

I could rant more but this is already too long, so if you actually read this, thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Hey, are you an artist or writer with WIPs?

katniss can understand the love her mother felt for her father and the blow that his death had on her.

she can empathise with the debilitating grief and depression.

she can acknowledge that it wasn’t entirely her mother’s fault, that access to medicine had a large roll to play in her mother’s ability to take care of her daughters.

she can understand that the neglect was very much due to external factors, and still not have any obligation to forgive her mother for abandoning her—not once, but twice—especially when the second time was after she had full access to the necessary mood stablising drugs and still left her severely traumatised, still underaged child and only living family to return to district 12 by herself with not even an offer to come stay with her in 4.

additionally, it’s not katniss’ job to maintain or build a relationship with the woman who let her children starve in front of her very eyes until her 11-year-old had to risk her life in the woods to take care of her 7-year-old.

STOP IT’S BEEN MONTHS. MONTHS!

6 year old Peeta Mellark, very seriously, asked Mr. Everdeen for Katniss' hand in marriage when he was trading at the bakery one day.

Mr. Everdeen was absolutely chuffed about it. He thought it was the cutest thing in the world and it took everything in him to maintain a serious tone when he responded with:

"That's a really big commitment. What do you have to offer my daughter, young man?"

"I can draw real good, my cupcakes are way better than both of my brothers, and I'll always let her take the top bunk."
