In 1944 a kitten named George (short for General Electric) was saved from drowning by a U.S. Navy crew member. George was then photographed and given a liberty card and detailed health record. Source.
“Nobody’s going to want to sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours to get from New York City to LA.”
Me. I will sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours. I’ll sit on it for days. I’ll write and read and nap and eat and then do it all over again. I’ll stare out the windows and see America from ground level and not have to drive. I’ll see the Rockies and the deserts and cornfields and the Mississippi River and your house and yours and yours too. I’ll make up stories in my head about the small towns I see as we go along. I’ll see the states I’ve yet to see because driving or flying there is a fucking slog and expensive to boot. I’ll enjoy the ride as much as the destination. And then I’ll do it all over again to come the fuck home.
overly specific dnd meme that could also be about godhood if you think about it
Even more Manuscript Art of Armed women
there's a (justified) focus on that one particular illustration from le Roman de la Rose in the general public, but i feel like we need to talk about this one from the same manuscript (BNF français 25526) some more

Prompts for Plance x Kallura Week 2018 (11/01/18 - 11/07/18)
Since so many great suggestions were given, each day will have two prompts to choose from (or you can combine the prompts if you’re able to to)!
Day 1 (November 1st): Secrets // Surprises
Day 2 (November 2nd): Youth // Parenthood
Day 3 (November 3rd): Sunset // Moonlight
Day 4 (November 4th): Body Swap // Role Swap
Day 5 (November 5th): Cooperation // Competition
Day 6 (November 6th): Garden // Desert
Day 7 (November 7th): Sleepover // Double Date
REMINDER: This week is for both couples so make sure your works reflect them as equally as possible. For instance if you’re writing a fic we don’t want to see Kallura ft. Plance or Plance with background Kallura. Give both of them lots of love!
ALSO: If you don’t think you’re good with fics or art (or simply don’t have the time) but want to contribute we will absolutely accept your headcanons, metas, playlists or anything else as they relate to the prompts!
