I was a cheerleader at university, this was in the UK so not serious at all, but we did go and compete at Nationals which were being held in Bournemouth, a fair distance from our uni in London. One of the girls was like “omg you can stay at my house! My parents live like 30 minutes away.” so all 25 of us got on the coach with a blanket and pillow and clothes, expecting to like, stay at a house.

Her house in the New Forest. They had a pool and hot tub, a pool house, and I think 4 or 5 bedrooms and 2 reception rooms. I say “I think” because we weren’t actually allowed to stay in the house. Our coach and 2 male members stayed in the pool house, which had a very small room, plus a bathroom which all of us were to share. The rest of us had to sleep in a big tent gazebo thing in the garden. In May in England. When none of us were prepared for camping. It was about 10°c in the night, not comfortable at all.

I very briefly saw the inside of the house when I asked her mother if there was another bathroom because we were running late and i needed to put my contact lenses in, and she shooed me into a cupboard under the stairs. The living room I caught a glimpse of had enough space for all of us to sleep there.

The next day when we got back from the competition, we were given a BBQ dinner! Which consisted of 1 chicken leg and 1 potato each.

For the privilege of staying at her house, we all had to give Nadine £5.

Every time I see a post like this, I think of that time, freezing my ass off, in a mansion garden.

big fan of characters with abandonment + attachment issues so profound that they leave claw marks in everything they touch but would sooner gnaw off their own leg than admit they just want someone to stay for once. in a totally normal well adjusted and not at all projecting way of course.

big fan of characters who are always leaving. who constantly have a suitcase in their hand. characters who start planning their exit the moment they arrive and get nervous when the people in their lives start to Know them. in a totally normal well adjusted and not at all projecting way of course

Big fan of when these characters fall in love and there is one clawing and one leaving and they can’t say a damn thing about it until they realize they can ask someone to stay and they can stay and be Known and both can be safe like this. In a totally normal well adjusted and not at all projecting way of course.

are there really people who don’t think Law is nerdy?! for real? this man collects coins and is up to date on a superhero comic book. he gets excited seeing a ninja do tricks. the man is a huge nerd

Youre not allowed to be cool with a sword and edgy and have any interests that are anything aside from brooding and killing people. You cannot be a pirate with hobbies, obviously.

hey this is a friendly reminder that if your state requires submitting a picture of yourself or a photo ID to view porn on the internet, don’t fucking do it

don’t give them your ID. don’t let them “age verify” you by accessing your webcam and taking your picture. for the love of god, don’t give any site access to this shit, it doesn’t matter how secure the system claims to be, anything can be hacked, and you should not trust websites to keep this info private.

what do you do instead? use a VPN. my favorite one is mullvad, but just. god. use a VPN and don’t give your private info to often-sketchy websites, and don’t trust the govt’s laws about this to protect you, because they fucking won’t.

that’s all
