Hi there, my name is Gemma and I’m in desperate need of help, I’ve been under so much emotional stress these past few weeks. Just over a month ago, due to a reassessment of my mental health under the benefit cuts that are widespread in the UK, I lost my Universal Credit benefit which basically helps me get through the month with rent, bills and food as my mental health prevent’s me from finding work. It was supposed to get sorted, but as of today (October 30th, 2017) I am still not in receipt of my U.C benefit due to my reassessment being an ongoing case, I have however received a Disability and Mental Health questionnaire which I have to complete in order for the DWP to complete my reassessment, this can take a further 3 - 4 weeks to be processed.
This leaves me with absolutely nothing to pay my rent and on October 24th, 2017 I was called to court by my local housing association for being in rent arrears and failing to pay rent due to my loss of benefit. Thanks to my last Youcaring post I was able to pay a substantial rent payment bringing my arrears down and the court ruled in my favour allowing me to keep my flat and stating that they would monitor my payments. However, another payment is due to be made which I cannot afford and as stated on the letter I have uploaded that another failed payment will force decree (eviction).My rent balance as of October 29th, 2017 is £296.78 and on November 12th it will go up to £358.03 (as shown). So I have set my goal to £600 in hopes to pay my rent, utility bills (gas/electricity) and get some food to do me for November.

I know I ask often but please help me, it has not been a good couple of months for me and anyone who’s been following me for long enough knows that.  Again, please help by donating or boosting. If you do not agree with “e-begging” as some of you have kindly put it then please do not interact with this post or send me mail telling me to “get a job”.

Again if you can help, please consider donating to my PayPal or Yourcaring campaign so that I can buy food and hopefully pay my rent: http://ift.tt/2csp51P

Thank you

£495/£600: Please, please help guys if you possibly can. I’m so close to my goal so please help out by donating or sharing my post!! 🙏❤

she ain’t wrong 🤔

Im so????

What asshole drew this?? As if we don’t have the very recent, devastating shipwrecks of the Costa Concordia (2012) in which video from firefighters helped prove the captain abandoned his ship in a disaster that resulted in 32 fatalities

or the sinking of the Sewol ferry in Korea (2014), in which over 300 people, mostly middle school students, were drowned, but not before many sent footage of the ferry’s announcements telling people to stay seated and not evacuate, proving the negligence of the ferry’s crew. Many of them were able to get final goodbye messages to their friends and family before they drowned. 

Ability to send final messages aside, documentary archival video footage is PRICELESS in situations like this. After any kind of public event, you bet your ass police are asking for any and all cell phone footage from the area. 

anyway, in conclusion, that artist can fuck off 

And WTF, there were people literally sitting in the lifeboats on the Titanic sketching it. That’s where that iconic fucking image of it COMES FROM, you WOMBATS.

have i ever told you that my college roommate met and interviewed Stephen King when she was in high school

it’s actually a good story so I’m gonna tell it and then actually go to bed

ok so my roommate worked on her school paper in high school or something like that. one assignment was for them to interview someone and she’s like “ok, stephen king is my favorite writer so i’m gonna interview him”

and the advisor or whoever is like “lmao ok good luck with that” and my roommate, who is very small and nice looking and seems non-threatening, was just like “i’m gonna interview Stephen king”

so she literally wrote him a letter and was like “hey dude you’re my favorite author, my advisor is a dick, let me interview you please”

and he legit came to New Jersey, like actually spent time and came down here, and let her interview him just to prove to her fuckwad advisor that she could. apparently Stephen king loves kids (despite putting them through horrible things in his novels) and has a really good sense of humor

so anyway, that’s how my roommate met and interviewed Stephen king

when Stephen King worked as a teacher, he worked at the high school I attended (granted, long before I went there), and everything I’ve ever heard about him second-hand points to him doing exactly that

Fun statistical fact: Cows are about 300 times more likely to kill you than coyotes.

Minor sidenote to statistical fact: If it was common for people to keep several hundred coyotes on their property and routinely chase them into a corral and handle them, this statistic would be different.

this is a great summary of ‘conditional probability’, a statistical property many people grapple with

one of my favorite things about ancient roman bathing culture is that we have more than one source (martial 9.33 and petronius 92 if you’re curious) that explicitly mentions guys with huge dicks getting surrounded and applauded in the baths, so apparently walking into a roman bath with a tremendous dong was enough to get a standing ovation in ancient rome

As happy as this makes me to imagine, I don’t know if I trust Martial or Petronius to give an accurate depiction of something like this… I feel like it could be the Roman equivalent of “and then everyone on the bus started clapping”…

Also, wasn’t it considered more attractive to have a smaller dick? Or was that a later period…

I want to believe, though. I want to believe so bad.

boy i’m here for ancient roman dick discourse (dickcourse?)

it’s true that martial and petronius both have kind of…absurd occurrences going on here, but i do think they reflect some amount of truth (after all, given that marsh and petronius both are concerned with portrayals of joe roman’s life, we can assume at the very least that what they write to some degree reflects actual societal values of their time). they’re writing at roughly the same time and about the same kind of people in the same kind of situation, so i don’t think this is entirely fabrication

one thing that’s important to note here is that these are definitely designed to be humorous depictions rather than particularly erotic ones, which means that this doesn’t need to involve the “ideal” penis (and it should also be noted that a small penis is attractive in a certain way to a certain community in greek and roman culture, as small penises are associated both with youth and with sexual modesty). in martial’s poem, we don’t really have enough context to know whether the admiration of the dick in question is sexual in nature or is just ancient roman bathroom talk- seeing as large dicks are associated with sexual voracity and prowess, we don’t know if there’s any propositioning going on. in the petronius passage, we do know that there’s more of an erotic admiration happening, but in either case, these tales are supposed to be funny

interestingly, these are not the only passages in which roman men admire the large dicks of others. there are a few other sources which seem to confirm that, at least to some people in ancient rome, a big dick is something worth applauding (or, if you’re elagabalus, promoting the bearers of the big dicks to important priesthoods). if you have a chance, i’d recommend looking at a copy of adams’ the latin sexual vocabulary, which has an entire section dedicated to how romans talk about big dicks.

so, are these two passages from the most reliable sources? not entirely. but the ones i’ve highlighted here do come from two authors who are particularly rich sources for aspects of roman daily life, and while we should certainly ask ourselves if they’re talking about real-life occurrences, i also don’t think that public admiration for impressive dongs is out of the question for ancient romans

lmao on the edinburgh zoo site it says “there is a daily penguin parade at 14:15 but it may be cancelled last minute as it is a voulntary parade, we do not coax the penguins with food, and they may not want to go out” lmao anarchopenguinism

this is the cutest goddamn thing i’ve ever heard

I saw the penguin parade. It was a very slow parade, because the

pingüinos take their sweet time and aren’t very fast walkers to begin with.

can I volunteer to be a penguin

I feel like the world needs to know the context of the edinburgh zoo penguin parade, becausr I’ve been going there my entire life and I only found out about this the other year.

So a while back (I can’t remember exactly when but I think it was some time around the 40s/50s), a bunch of penguins escaped. A keeper left the gate open so a bunch of penguins just… followed them. And the people loved it. Look at these adorable birds outside their cage just following that guy around! So they get all the penguins back inside and realise that none of them really ran off, they just followed the keeper and went back inside and crowd thought it was amazing, so why not make it a regular thing? Get enough people there that if one of them goes to make a run for it (which at least one has in the past), they can’t get past the people, and let the ones who want outside have a little wander. So every day, they get a crowd, they open the gate, and whatever penguins want to get out can go, waddle about, squawk at people, and then hop back inside.

Also, one of those penguins is Brigadier Sir Nils Olaf III, Colonel-in-cheif of the Norwegian King’s Guard. This isn’t really related to the parade at all, I just love the fact that there’s a penguin in the Norwegian army

Reblogging with Brigadier Sir Nils Olaf III inspecting his troops.

Carry on …

I love everything about this post.

i dont understand this at all and america scares the fuck out of me

This is the america they don’t want you to see

This is what you call Waffle House at 2 am when the bars close and everyone is drunk and hungry

*group of people having fun*this site: wtf this is so scary

People having safe fun at a waffle house is scary for most Tumblr bloggers, reports say.

Some context for those not familiar with Waffle House Culture: 

Waffle House is one of the few chains in America that’s open 24/7/365, and where you can get both breakfast and lunch/dinner options at any time (I have had so many Breakfast Cheeseburgers at Waffle Houses). The food is really good, and people eat there at all times of the day or night, but it’s particularly popular as a late-night post-drinking spot because it’s all that’s open and it’s the kind of food that tastes especially good when you’re hammered.

Part of Waffle House Protocol is that all the servers and cooks greet every single customer as they come through the door. It sounds lame, but I’ve never been to a Waffle House where that greeting didn’t feel completely heartfelt. My mom is a health nut who could barely find anything on the menu she was willing to eat and yet she describes the Christmas Day lunch we had there one year as one of the nicest meals she’s ever had because everyone was so warm and welcoming. That sense of camaraderie gets turned up to 11, of course, at 2 a.m. when everyone’s shitfaced.

The jukeboxes have Waffle-House-themed songs on them (once you have heard “Raisins in my Toast” you will be earwormed forever) and there is an arcane system of hash brown ordering: scattered, smothered, covered, chunked, topped, diced, peppered, and/or capped. The hot sauce bottles say “Casa de Waffle.” 

Once, in Oxford (UK), my husband and I walked past a kebab van very late one night and he said “why do I smell Waffle House”

The location of most Waffle Houses means there’s some… classism that tends to get tied up with Anti-Waffle House Discourse, which is probably lending itself, in part, to this being such a fraught topic. (I’m looking at a map and apparently I was born and raised right in the middle of the Peak Waffle House Density Zone)

It is, in the words of chef Anthony Bourdain, “indeed marvelous— an irony-free zone where everything is beautiful and nothing hurts; where everybody regardless of race, creed, color or degree of inebriation is welcomed.”

This was adorable lmao

Waffle House is the best place. 

blessed post

Waffle House is a treasure, there’s even a “Waffle House Index” for when disasters strike that’s based off of what they are serving.

The waffle house I went to was pretty spooky but the people working there were nice

This is so wholesome.

I wish the world was a Waffle House.

Waffle House is a tiny light of hope in our bleak time of need in America, fuck anyone who talks shit about Waffle House.

Waffle House!
