This is a big, giant list of Youtube tutorials that will teach you all the basic life skills you need to know in order to be a functional adult. There are a lot of important skills that aren’t included in this list, but this should be enough of a basic guide to get you started and prevent you from making a total mess of yourself. Happy adulting!
I couldn’t resist challenging myself to draw a buff guy, especially one that has such a great design! This is for Kenesu’s “Draw This In Your Style” challenge over on Twitter. It’s his version of Dimangan, the Filipino god of good harvest!
The line “Hey there, Delilah / You be good, and don’t you miss me / Two more years and you’ll be done with school / And I’ll be makin’ history like I do” is an example of the classic erasure of women’s success when compared to men because who’s to say Delilah’s degree won’t come with a groundbreaking piece of research that changes her field forever and mr. plain white tees over is just writing simple chord progressions not discovering new theories of societal advancement. In this essay I will—
Delilah went out and earned her degree and mr. plain white tees had the AUDACITY to say “someday I’ll pay the bills with this guitar.” Delilah honey dump his ass & go make your money.
Not to read into this post too deep but this is an interview with the real ‘Delilah’ in the song where she talks about how she wasn’t actually even dating mr plain white tees guy when the song came out and for a long time the song was a source of discomfort for her.. She also talks about her accomplishments as an athlete in this interview, she’s a rlly talented long distance runner.
i hated this song as a kid and i never really knew why but now i know i was Right
God, she even attended the 2008 Grammy Award show as Mr. Plain White Tee’s guest, which probably further cemented the public’s belief that they were a thing.
Like, she didn’t deserve any of that. People have made jokes about how she “friendzoned” him and all this crap and I’m just… HE’S SO CREEPY. Aside from feeling guilty about the possibility that she led him on (she didn’t), I’m sure the public ridiculed her for not reciprocating in the nonexistent relationship. I can imagine the shit she went through when the song was at its peak of popularity…
Her name is Delilah DiCrescenzo and, like this post mentions, she is an accomplished distance runner who competes on a world wide level. She competed at the 2008 US Olympic trials, and in 2017, won the women’s division of Southwest Half Marathon held in Palos Heights IL. Let’s remember and celebrate her and her accomplishments and leave Mr. Plain White Tee’s crusty ass in the dust.
petition to ban the word ‘discourse’ and bring back ‘fandom wank’ as the term so that inter-fandom arguments go back to sounding just as silly as they usually are
