In West Egg, we don’t say “I love you.” We throw lavish parties for years hoping you will walk in the door even though you already have a husband and child. I find that beautiful.

Let’s take a moment to appreciate the fact Tony Stark killed a man over a Dora the Explorer watch.
This machine allows anyone to work for minimum wage for as long as they like. Turning the crank on the side releases one penny every 4.97 seconds, for a total of $7.25 per hour. This corresponds to minimum wage for a person in New York. This piece is brilliant on multiple levels, particularly as social commentary. Without a doubt, most people who started operating the machine for fun would quickly grow disheartened and stop when realizing just how little they’re earning by turning this mindless crank. A person would then conceivably realize that this is what nearly two million people in the United States do every day…at much harder jobs than turning a crank. This turns the piece into a simple, yet effective argument for raising the minimum wage.
god damn

what if someone wrote a book and the plot was basically amazing and the characters were awesome and at the end of the book, you’re dying to know what happens, all you see is a ripped page and the author actually did it on purpose and you’ll never know what happens because all the other published copies are like that too
calm down satan

In sixth grade this Pakistani girl who sat it front of me saw me wearing a shirt with a Hawaiian hula girl on it and she said really loudly for the whole class to hear “aren’t you a little too GAY for that shirt?” and I was just like “aren’t you a little too HAIRY for that skirt?” and she started crying and the funniest part is I ended up being gay anyway
