the fact that kids feel physically ill and have mental breakdowns at the very idea of going to school should be a clue to some people that maybe something isnt fucking right
This this this this this. THIS. I cried my eyes out and puked my guts out at the idea of going to school MOST of the days I went.

This reminds me of an article about online (heterosexual) dating that I read a while ago. It listed men’s and women’s worst fears about meeting someone from online. The highest ranked fear that men had was that their date would be fat,...

Hey followers,
I know I don’t talk to a lot of you, but I really need help right now. My cat has a urinary tract blockage, and the procedure to fix it is about $300. I don’t have the money to pay for it, and if we don’t do it, we have to put him down….

Alien-Looking Skeleton Poses Medical Mystery
ziyadmd:
A teensy skeleton with a squashed alien-like head may have earthly origins, but the remains, found in the Atacama Desert a decade ago, do make for quite a medical mystery.
Apparently when the mummified specimen was discovered, some had suggested the possibility it was an alien that had somehow landed on Earth, though the researchers involved never suggested this otherworldly origin.

Saying that you really want a zombie apocalypse to occur is like saying, “Yes, I want a traumatic and devastating event that will inevitably kill most of my friends and family to occur because I think it will be cool to shoot things for a while before I ultimately succumb to death in the worst way possible as civilization burns around me.”

They used to do that, it was called “The 80s”.

Anxiety isn’t a fashion statement it’s a miserable disorder with actual real uncontrollable symptoms that eat you alive and distance you from the people you love so stop making it “trendy”

A guy friend of mine today said it was weird that my friend had all the X-Men movies because she was a girl. Needless to say we almost threw him out of the car. So I would like to prove to him that just because we...

This makes me so happy, and yet so sad.
He was smart, he was a writer (you could tell by his phrasing) and this is something he TRULY cares about. That boy has a heart and he cares. He sees the truth for what it is and he refuses to sit idly and watch as the youth of america just stumbles by.
BUT the teacher was done. She didn’t...

If you live in North Texas (THAT’S YOU MY DALLAS PEOPLE), you are being advised to STAY INSIDE tonight and close your windows. Strong northern winds are blowing right now in Texas, and there are public safety concerns for fumes from the fertilizer plant. There is no knowledge about the exact quality of the air, but there is the possibility that hazardous chemicals are present.

Our hearts go out to everybody hurt by today’s events not only in Boston, but to countless others around the world, including the students clashing with police in Venezuela, those killed in Afghanistan, and the countless attacks against Syrians.
Everybody stay safe.
