1) they expensive bruh 2) none of us kno the dif btwn a fucking diamond and some fancy ass glass ur capitalist rock hierarchy has no control over us

3) mostly mined with slave labor

4) we get excited when our date buys us an appetizer, we don’t even comprehend people buying us rocks that would force us into debt for ten years

5) They aren’t actually that rare and the price is artificially inflated. 

Pro tip from a former Jared’s salesperson: You want a sparkly white rock that will look like a diamond to the untrained eye and will literally cost the price of a nice dinner for two? Created white sapphire. They’re lab grown and cost *pennies* to make, so you can get a 1 or 2 carat white sapphire for like… $30-80 probably. You can get one as huge as you like, perfectly clear, perfectly flawless. And no one will ever be able to tell the difference except a professional appraiser. Also, sapphires are the second-hardest gemstone (right after diamonds) so they are very durable! Very unlikely that they’ll chip or crack. Get that bitch set in sterling silver and you are GOOD TO GO. Whole thing should cost you less than $200 unless you get a fancy band with a lot of extra stones. Of course, created sapphires come in every color of the rainbow, so if you want something more exciting than plain white, you TOTALLY CAN. 

Created sapphires and silver: The poor Millennial’s engagement ring. 

THANK YOU EX-JARED’S BASED GOD.

• so you know how everyone has a story
  
• you know
• like the story
• like if you’re at a party and someone turns to you and says, tell the story
• and you know exactly what they mean
• the story
• well 
• i have a story
• and not unlike most good stories, it involves three key components:
• barack obama
• pre-2008 reebok sneakers 
• and the absolute earth-shattering horror you can only feel after making the worst mistake of your life 

• so here we go
• it all began eight years ago
• (i was a gangly child then) 
• and barack obama came to town
• (when i was a young girl)
• (my father took me out into the city)
• (to see the president of the united states, obama) 
• (barack obama)
• except it wasn’t the city but where my parents worked 
• and my mother was hired to take pictures of obama shaking the hands of others
• (rich people)
• (ceo’s) 
• (people who didn’t wear reeboks to meet the president)
• so i skipped school to see obama
• (naturally) 
• (but my teacher was a republican so it still counted as an absence) 
• and the adventure begun
• but as i soon learned
• most of the adventure was waiting in a large room with my mother and some secret service men for roughly eight hours 
• because there is no timing with obama
• (barack obama)
• no one can know when obama is supposed to be there
• (barack obama)
• there is no, like, obama warning system
• (barack)
• it’s just that one second he’s not there
• and the next second
• he’s there
• (barack obama)
• so it was eight hours
• and i remember nothing from those eight hours except for when one of the secret service men tried to talk to me
• ‘how are your studies,’ he said
• how’s school, he probably meant
• but i didn’t understand at the time
• i was a gangly child
• i was scared
• he was tall
• (i cried)
• and then all of a sudden
• (about eight hours into the eight hours)
• he was there
• (barack obama)
• he was beauty 
• he was grace
• he was
• (barack obama)
• he walked into the room
• he wasn’t wearing reeboks 
• (i noticed)
• (i began to feel i’d made a mistake)
• my mother took pictures of him shaking the hands of others
• (rich people)
• (ceo’s)
• (none of whom were wearing reeboks) 
• and at the very end
• obama began to leave 
• (barack obama)
• i was happy enough to have graced his presence
• but my parents
• my parents were not happy
• they needed more
• ‘mr. obama,’ they called
• and they pointed to me
• ‘of course,’ obama said
• (barack obama)
• he’s so nice, i thought
• and then it hit me
• oh no, i thought
• oh yes, my parents thought at some point, probably
• i’m obama, obama thought, most likely
• i was going to meet obama
• up close and personal
• obama
• (barack obama)
• the rest was a blur
• and the next thing i knew i was there
• with obama
• (barack obama)
• his hand was shaking my hand
• his hand was on my hand
• (nothing had ever felt so right)
• ‘so what’s you’re name,’ he asked 
• (with obama’s voice)
• (because he was obama)
• (barack obama)
• and i almost forgot but i told him
• and he said it correctly even though it’s weird 
• (obama said my name)
• and we were off to a good start
• how was i to know
• how was i to know the horrors to come
• ‘so how old are you,’ he asked then
• and that’s when this dream became a nightmare
• ‘twelve,’ i said
• a seemingly innocent answer
• but here’s the thing
• i was 
• thirteen. 
• (thirteen)
• (13)
• (12+1)
• (16-3)
• (13.0)
• (Thirteen.) 
• what have i done, i thought
• (panic! at the election)
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3LGopSVju4
  
• i still don’t know why i did it
• did i really forget? 
• did i do it for the thrill of the chase?
• to see if i could?
• maybe
• but obama didn’t know
• i did it, i thought, i lied
• i lied to the president of the united states
• i pulled it off
• the greatest lie in history
• the greatest heist
• (i didn’t know what a heist was)
• (i was thirteen)
• ‘oh so you’re in 6th grade then,’ obama said
• shit.
• i was so close
• shit what do i say, i thought
• the journey is not over
• the nightmare rages on
• what do i say
• i open my mouth to say, yes
• ‘no,’ i say
• what the fuck, i think 
  
• ‘no i’m in 7th grade” 
  
• (because i was)
• maybe he won’t know, i thought
• but he did.
• (obama’s been around the block)
• (obama knows what’s up)
• ‘so you’re ahead of your class, then’ he said
  
• (i wasn’t)
• (i failed basic math at least twice by this time)
• ‘yes,’ i said, just wanting this nightmare to be over
  
• just wanting the lie to end
• for obama to call me out on my shit and arrest me
• to spend the rest of my youth locked away in prison where i couldn’t hurt anyone any more with my lies
• i waited
• i waited for arrest
• but arrest didn’t come
• and that was even worse.
• obama trusted me
• obama thought i was a good kid
• obama thought i was ahead of my class 
• (ahead of my class) 
• i let him down
• i let obama down
• (barack obama)
• i watched him leave
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYNH1baA_7k
  
• obama, i mouthed out after him
• obama i’m sorry
• (he trusted me)
• why did i do it, you ask
• i don’t know
• after all these years
• i still don’t know
• it still haunts me
• i still wake up at night, shaking, and i think
• i lied to the president of the united states
• (twice)
• the photographic evidence of my nightmare hangs in my father’s office
• i’m smiling through my pain
• i’m wearing reeboks
• obama is not
• (barack obama)
• i hope that someday, after obama’s retirement 
• we can put this all behind us and start anew 
• start fresh
• (no more lies)
• (no more deceit)
• but i’m not naive
• i know that we can never really go back
• back to the way things were
• five seconds after i met him but five seconds before i lied
• but i can dream
• i can hope
• obama
• obama i’m sorry
• (barack obama)

Eeveelution variations!

PLEASE DO NOT REPOST OR REDISTRIBUTE ON OTHER WEBSITES

Throughout the years I’ve seen so many headcanons for the eeveelutions, many of which based the Eevees off of just one animal or a mix of them so I decided to play around with some designs to encompass most of these ideas.

The main idea being that: Because Eevee’s DNA is so wacky and it can evolve into so many diverse evolutions, its species can also vary from evolution to evolution, region to region, bloodline to bloodline.

Many being domestically bred for specific traits whether it be for battling, contests, companionship, or to be put to work, many others are found that way in wild populations where little human interaction has occurred.

All of the standard Eeveelutions shown are supposed to be more or less ambiguous, not based around just one animal but instead, designed to fit their official artwork as close as possible. Basically, standards are mutts as far as what species they are is concerned, hence people calling them catfoxrabbit things. As for the variations, all bets are off and many have been bred and narrowed down to one species.

The three-to-four variation examples I drew at the top of each picture are not exclusive to which species expresses it in the examples below. These variation types whether it be coat pattern, jewels, leaves, skin type, can appear in most any strain of each respective eeveelution.

Likewise, the species variations beside the standard eeveelution are not the only available species per that pokemon as the possibilities of other species and mixes are endless. It’s even possible for your eevee to change species upon evolution, much like the quilava line already does [shrew to weasel to badger].

It took me about three days to finish this and loads of references. In the end I’m quite happy with how it all came out and I hope you all enjoy. And if you want to draw character inspiration from this post please be my guest!!

i’m watching this documentary about halloween and there’s a part where they’re explaining that ghost stories got really popular around the civil war no one could really deal with how many people went off and died and

the narrator just said 

“the first ghost stories were really about coming home”

fuck 

#but wow let me tell you about how the american civil war changed the whole culture of grief and death  #because before that people died at home mostly  #where their family saw them die and held their body and had proof they were really dead and it was a process  #but during the war people left and never came home their bodies never came back there was no proof  #people died in new horrific ways on the battlefield literally vaporized by cannonballs or lost in swamps and eaten by wild animals  #and there were NO BODIES to send home  #and people simply couldn’t grasp that their son or father or husband was really gone  #there are stories about people spending months searching for their loved ones  #convinced they couldn’t be dead if there were no body they were simply lost or hurt and they needed to be saved and brought home  #embalming also really started during the civil war as a way for bodies to be brought home as intact as possible  #wow i just wowowow the culture of death and grief and stuff during this time period is fascinating and sad  #history  (via souryellows)

#quietly reblogs own tags  #also the civil war was when dog tags and national cemetaries became a thing  #and during the war there was n real system in place to notify families of the deaths  #like they’d find out maybe from letters from soldiers who were there when their loved one died nd stuff  #but there was no real system  #and battlefield ambulances were basically invented because so many people died on the battlefield when they could have been saved if they co  #…could have been moved frm the battlefield to a hospital  #like there was this one really inlfuential dude whose son died that way and he became dedicated to getting an ambulance system in place  

I’m not doing this in the correct tag-style, but.

IIRC, the Civil War also played a huge part in forming the modern American conception of heaven as this nice, domestic place where you’re reunited with your loved ones.  People (particularly mothers) responded to the trauma of brother-killing-brother by imagining an afterlife in which families would once again be happy together.

(also not doing this in the correct tag-style, because I wanna KNOW— )What documentary is this? Or is there more than one? Any books on the subject? THIS IS FASCINATING.

cool (ghost) story, bro.

reblogging because, as a us history phd student, i want to say YAY for how much of this is totally on point. i also want to rec the book where a lot of this is covered very, very well, which is Drew Gilpin Faust’s “This Republic of Suffering: Death and the American Civil War.”

a lot of books on the Civil War are deadly dull because they’re about battles and shit, but as a transformative moment in mindset and ideology, it becomes *fascinating*

the other book I’d even more highly rec is David W. Blight’s “Race and Reunion,” which is about how the “(white) brother against (white) brother” image of the war was invented and how throwing African Americans to the merciless viciousness of post-Reconstruction racist whites was part of constructing this “oh everybody was white men and everybody was noble let’s celebrate them all” approach to Civil War remembrance

very good stuff

Thank you! This looks like exactly the sort of reading I’m after! *adds to wish list*

Also, look for David Blights recordings of his Yale  lecture series on The Civil War. 21 hours of class lectures, and its FASCINATING. He barely touches on the battles other than to use them as timestamps as to what was going on. Most of it focuses on what the mindset of everyone was going into the war, and what happened on the way out. It’s an amazing series that will change your entire perception of the war - how it happened, and how it wasn’t going to be possible to avoid it, because of the inherent evil of slavery and how it was destroying damn near *everyone* except rich white people.
