you know what really annoys me

when famous youtubers/tumblr users/celebrities etc are in a relationship with someone

and the fan base says they ‘dont like that ship’ or ‘they dont ship it’

its like HOLY SHIT STOP YOU FUCKING FREAKS

THAT IS A REAL RELATIONSHIP

THIS IS NOT A JOKE, THIS IS NOT A CARTOON OR A COMIC OR A TV SHOW

THIS IS SOMEONES REAL LIFE RELATIONSHIP WHO THEY HAVE REAL FEELINGS WITH

YOU CAN’T SAY YOU DONT LIKE THAT SHIP BECAUSE’S YOU CAN’T

STOP

I would have sugar coated this tumblr based PSA far more, the insult to the individuals is unnecessary, but the greater truth of it remains.

I often feel sorry for celebrities, as they are subjected to those who believe that a celebrity’s personal lives are the public’s to dictate. Celebrities are real people, with real lives, separate from their public personas. You wouldn’t like someone telling you who to date or weighing in on the worthiness of a relationship, unless you genuinely asked for someone’s input, please do not subjugate others to such treatment. 

It’s alright to distance yourself and still admire a celebrity. You don’t have to weigh in on every little decision they make. I think Tumblr forgets that far too often. We’re too busy obsessing about things here that we forget that there are very real people behind those obsessions that are directly effected by our attitudes towards them.

angelophile: “I got a fan letter from a young lady. It was a suicide note. So I called her, and I said, “Hey, this is Jimmy Doohan. Scotty, from Star Trek.” I said, “I’m doing a convention in Indianapolis. I wanna see you there.” I saw her — boy, I’m telling you, I couldn’t believe what I saw. It was definitely suicide. Somebody had to help her, somehow. And obviously she wasn’t going to the right people. I said to her, “I’m doing a convention two weeks from now in St. Louis.” And two weeks from then, in somewhere else, you know? She also came to New York - she was able to afford to got to these places. That went on for two or three years, maybe eighteen times. And all I did was talk positive things to her. And then all of the sudden — nothing. I didn’t hear anything. I had no idea what had happened to her because I never really saved her address. Eight years later, I get a letter saying, “I do want to thank you so much for what you did for me, because I just got my Master’s degree in electronic engineering.” That’s…to me, the best thing I’ve ever done in my life.” Always reblog.

URGENT: today in Russia, a terrible bill passed in the Russian parliament’s lower house that censors all things considered “gay”. It’s our local partners’ worst nightmare and we need your help. 

This vote comes off the back of two brutal anti-gay murders in Russia, and the trial of a major LGBT rights organisation today.

REALLY IMPORTANT

This really is happening, and it’s scary as hell.

“Update June 12: the situation is worsening. Russia has just passed a new anti-gay law makes it illegal even to say the word “gay”.  People in Russia standing up against the crackdown are urging All Out members to keep growing the petition to help draw the attention of world leaders and the media.”

It turns out procrastination is not typically a function of laziness, apathy or work ethic as it is often regarded to be. It’s a neurotic self-defense behavior that develops to protect a person’s sense of self-worth.

You see, procrastinators tend to be people who have, for whatever reason, developed to perceive an unusually strong association between their performance and their value as a person. This makes failure or criticism disproportionately painful, which leads naturally to hesitancy when it comes to the prospect of doing anything that reflects their ability — which is pretty much everything.

But in real life, you can’t avoid doing things. We have to earn a living, do our taxes, have difficult conversations sometimes. Human life requires confronting uncertainty and risk, so pressure mounts. Procrastination gives a person a temporary hit of relief from this pressure of “having to do” things, which is a self-rewarding behavior. So it continues and becomes the normal way to respond to these pressures.

Particularly prone to serious procrastination problems are children who grew up with unusually high expectations placed on them. Their older siblings may have been high achievers, leaving big shoes to fill, or their parents may have had neurotic and inhuman expectations of their own, or else they exhibited exceptional talents early on, and thereafter “average” performances were met with concern and suspicion from parents and teachers.
