“One time I went shopping for shirts and suits, but then I found the most beautiful pair of socks and I thought, “I just have to buy this”. So when I did, and I was at the counter, the cashier told me, “You can get another pair of socks for a half off since we’re having a special sale.” So I did, I went and got another pair of socks and then they told me, this time, that if I buy another pair of socks, I’ll get another pair of socks for free…And so I bought another socks to get another pair of socks for free and they told me again that if I buy another pair of socks, this time, they’ll let me have two pairs of socks for free. And I did. So by the end of the day, I had bought about 7 pairs of socks and no new suits or shirts. And I thought to myself, “This is my life now. Spending money on socks.”

This is why he’s not allowed to go shopping without Martin Freeman. He does this

Violin Update and Seattle Lifestyle

Hello! It’s been a while since I’ve had a violin lesson, as my living situation has changed. Nevertheless, my violin teacher was so impressed with my improved intonation (the ability to play notes in tune) she took the tapes off my violin!!!
I want to be humble, but it has only been 5 months and I am already at that point, and I am proud of myself. I am playing Minuet #2, Minuet #3, Happy Farmer, and Gossec’s Gavotte in Suzuki book 1 now. 
Besides that, it’s been a wonderful day. I worked for 3 hours this morning at Petsmart, then I bussed to capitol hill, had my lesson, then ate a peach in Pike Place Market and bought some tea at Market Spice. Above is an appropriately violin-themed teacup they had for sale there :)
And despite Seattle being known for its rain, it has been a sunny, 80-degree day!

ALRIGHT LISTEN UP!
SERIOUS BUSINESS RIGHT HERE!
CISPA just passed and is going to destroy everything!
Go to SitesNotSpies.org to sign up to join the protest and for further details.
It’s time to get pissed. The U.S. law that would turn Google, Facebook, and Twitter into legally immune government spies just passed the House.
This bill affects everyone — not just U.S. citizens. Anyone with a Facebook account could now have their data shipped directly to the U.S. government. That’s why Internet users overwhelmingly oppose this bill. Over 1.5 million people signed petitions against it. But Congress didn’t listen. 
Does this remind you of something? Yep, this is the exact position we were in with SOPA last year. Then the Internet rose up and we made history with the SOPA strike. 
This spring, we’re going to organize the largest online privacy protest in history to make sure that CISPA goes the same route as SOPA and doesn’t become the law that breaks the 4th Amendment. Are you in? 
CISPA threatens our most basic rights. Privacy is important not just for our security but for our rights to freedom of expression. The giant tech companies that stood with Internet users against SOPA are not going to help us this time (but some of the large sites like Mozilla, Imgur, and Reddit are all against CISPA and we love them). 
Only a massive grassroots outcry will stop this bill. We’re starting to build the tools. But we need your help. 
Share this flyer, and tell everyone you know to sign up to join the protest!

*I did not draw this — please see the source below*
I was shy to post this at first…it’s something not a lot of people know about me. I’ve never wanted breasts, ever. I don’t mind feminine pronouns like this person does, but inside, I honestly don’t think I’m 100% female. 
It’s actually my main motivation to lose weight. To be able to wear men’s or women’s clothing, and to have a smaller chest.

This won’t make sense if you haven’t read Watchmen. But if you haven’t read Watchmen, that is what you should be doing right now anyway.

reapersun:

So I was cleaning my room the other day and I found some disks with some old artwork on them. On one of them was this old comic I drew and posted anonymously on 4chan back in 2009. I never signed it because I drew it in a rush to troll* the comics board (it was a few days before the film would come out and everyone was feeling very emotional about Watchmen) and I was just in the habit of posting doodles anonymously around then. There was a short thread, a few people reposted it for awhile, and then after the movie hype and Watchmen discussions died down I kinda forgot about it.

I found out a few years later that the thing kinda blew up on reddit and some other sites some time after that, and some people even wrote articles about it. Someone even drew an alternate happy ending lol.

It was pretty cool but kinda weird haha.

*When I say troll, it doesn’t mean I take any of the subjects represented here or in Watchmen lightly. I just mean I made it with the intent to cause extreme emotional impact.
