AHHHH! HERE IS THE NEWS! The Show with Ze Frank RETURNS!
Incredibly exciting news, although here on my iPhone it says video format not compatible.
I’ve only ever seen one episode of the show, and it was a little…grown up for my tastes at that time. BUT THIS WAS AMAZING.

“President Obama once said he wants everybody in America to go to college. What a...”
– Republican presidential candidate RICK SANTORUM, on Sunday’s Meet The Press.
No seriously. This guy is a fucking dick.
(via the Los Angeles Times)
The thing is, Santorum actually believes this. But in his defense, I can understand his self interest in ensuring fewer people go to college and...

q-seeks-a:
Just told my mum she has a son.
She took it predictably badly.
I haven’t been kicked out the house.
But there was also nothing that sounded like “Well, I love you no matter what.”
Then again, she doesn’t believe in evolution so I really shouldn’t expect her to understand terms like transgender.
I tried to explain gender dysphoria, and she asked if there was...

Last Line Syndrome: or, How Not to Fanfic
spnguitarwriter:
I’d like to discuss a little thing I like to call “Last Line Syndrome.”
It’s a thing I’ve observed in a lot of fanfic- mostly Merlin, but Jessi has told me she’s seen it in SG-1 fic and every fandom must have some.
Last Line Syndrome is when you have a fantastic story happening (I’m going with the Merlin example) and then, in the last line (last paragraph or two anyway) Merlin...

alandistro:
Thank you! You should probably also show some love to Raven Zoe and Jason Munday, without them, you’d be reading poems, not listening to songs. Raven and Jason took the words I was writing, and worked with me to construct some beautiful and catchy melodies.
And Christian Caldeira. He produced the album, which means it was his job to take all of the pieces and make them fit together...

You know I was kidding right?
edwardspoonhands:
So I made my video today for two reasons. One, because I wanted to showcase and comment upon the vast amount of cute that we have in our world, because it’s fun to think about things we don’t think about (even if I’m thinking about them in idiotic ways.)
But the other reason is that I wanted to point out a few ways to make a ludicrous argument seem semi-sane. This is how...

Frank Bruni Likes The Fault in Our Stars
fishingboatproceeds:
Most of you probably don’t even know who Frank Bruni is (he is a writer for the New York Times), but this is a huge deal to me, because 1. he’s a great writer, and 2. he’s a great eater, which makes him a man after my own heart. It’s strange to me that my book would ever even make its way into his hands, let alone that he would read it and say such nice things.
Now I just...

“Ray Bradbury Award for Outstanding Dramatic Presentation
Attack the Block, Joe...”
– You know when people say “It’s an honour just to be nominated”?
Ah, I look at the other things on that list, and it’s an honour just to be nominated.
(And I love that a Doctor Who episode is up against 6 actual movies.)

Frank Bruni on THE FAULT IN OUR STARS, “Kids, Books and a Five-Hankie Gem”
elysemarshall:
“…I admire [THE FAULT IN OUR STARS] enormously, more so than most of the adult-targeted novels I’ve read of late. And I found myself eager to share it. I bought a copy for a dear friend’s 12-year-old daughter. Then I sent a copy each to my two brothers, for them to pass...

V for Vendetta

metatfios:
“‘You’re like a millennial Natalie Portman. Like V for Vendetta Natalie Portman.’
‘Never seen it,’ I said.
‘Really?’ he asked. ‘Pixie-haired gorgeous girl dislikes authority and can’t help but fall for a boy she knows is trouble. It’s your autobiography, so far as I can tell’”(Green 17).
Hazel gives a brief synopsis of V for Vendetta (which is also a book) in...
