theres always THE note in every single florence song where your soul is awoken and you remember why you’re here…. why we’re all here and why we existed and fought to stay alive… because we had to get to this point solely so mother florence could anoint us with her voice, saving our souls, so we could break free from our earthly binds and ascend into a state of pure light and consciousness.

K I’m gonna try something different, feedback will be appreciated. Before, I was queuing every post, so that my content would come at a steady rate. Problem is, I’m often gone for a while any my queue clears out, leaving long stretches where there’s nothing (and I’m way too lazy to be constantly adjusting the frequency lol).
SO, I’m just gonna start directly reblogging/posting stuff, so that you’ll have little bursts of Earl on your dashboard instead of me just being consistent background noise. Let me know what you think.
You should do a mixture of both! That’s what I do.

25-year-old Ramsey Orta, the man who filmed Eric Garner’s death is going to jail to serve a 4-year sentence.
Orta says that after filming Garner’s death he was repeatedly harassed and targeted by police and arrested 8 times in a span of 2 years.
The man who killed Eric Garner, Daniel Pantaleo, on the other hand got a 15% pay rise since the shooting of Eric.
That’s American criminal justice system for ya..
#EricGarner
This is part of what we’re talking about when we discuss the ways the criminal injustice system is designed to tear apart nonwhite families, how it’s held over our heads. He got out of ‘his place’ and stood up against white supremacy and is now being punished for it, by ripping his family apart and trying to destroy his life. This man did right and will now be separated from the real world and his family for four years–and that’s if they play everything by the books and he makes it out at the end of those four years.
Where were the Good Cops protecting him from harassment? When did the Good Cops report their partners and friends for targeting a citizen for a personal vendetta? Where are the Good Cops when the rest of the cops are flagrantly violating citizens’ rights?

Everyone reblog this because it speaks volumes.
not one fucking state can you work full time for minimum wage and have enough money for even basic necessities. that blows my mind.
Let’s not talk about how nobody wants to hire full time employee cuz nobody wants to give employees those benefits like insurance and that other security shit we need to live

Like tbqh most of the discourse on this hellsite sounds like this to me:
1) This character stole some bread, they are the literal worst and if you like them you are personally endorsing stealing and are the literal worst.
2) This character stole some bread from my favourite character and DOES NOT DESERVE TO BE REDEEMED
3) This person drew art of this character stealing a loaf of bread and is romanticizing the act of stealing and is making fandom toxic.
4) This person wrote Problematic TM fic in which this character steals MORE LOAVES OF BREAD AND ISNT PUNISHED FOR IT how dare they.
5) I’m trying to make fandom a non toxic space for all of us so here’s a list of all the bloggers and artists who have created art which did not directly punish this character for stealing bread and on occasion have drawn them going on to steal more bread. Please don’t harass them =uwu=
6) How dare you even think of writing a redemption story for this character who once stole bread.
PSA: known bread theft supporter tumblr user 24601 is now posting under the name medeleine. Their old blog has been deleted. Message me for receipts.
Anyone who sees fic/art of fictional characters stealing bread will start stealing bread too.
If you post fic/art of characters stealing bread, you’re directly responsible for all bread-stealing that ever happened.
Even if Aladdin is a canon bread thief, do NOT make fic/art of Aladdin stealing bread!
YOU ARE EXPOSING MINORS TO DEPICTIONS OF CRIMINAL ACTS. YOU ARE AN ABUSER.
* You’re allowed to make fic/art of fictional characters stealing bread IF someone once stole a bread from you AND you make a public post telling everyone the size of your loaf. BREAD ROLLS DON’T COUNT, IT MUST BE A WHOLE LOAF OR YOU’RE JUST FAKING.

Science side of Tumblr: how can dragons breathe fire?
There are three variants of dragons.
One of them possesses a gland that produces a liquid, which spontaneously combusts when coming into contact with oxygen. Some phosphorus compounds could do that for example.
The second one possesses two glands instead, which produce so-called hypergolic propellants, fluids that ignite when they come into contact with one another.
The third kind stores the methane bacteria in their stomach produce, and expells it when breathing fire. In their mouth there’s a piezoelectric crystal, which is a substance that produces a spark when placed under mechanical stress and could thus serve to ignite the methane gas.
Or it’s magic.
It’s definitely the fourth one.
@thatweirdscienceguy
Alright, but what about D&D dragons like the acid spewing kind or the thunderbolt kind. I like your explanationskills, please enlighten me.,
Acid (Black): Pretty much an overpowered version of acid reflux, possibly with a gas as propellant. Essentially proton pumps in the stomach lining cause Hydrogen ions to be added to the liquid inside the stomach. Thus the contents become acidic. Through reverse peristalsis, they are then transported into the mouth, where highly compressed methane, produced by the dragon’s metabolism, is released to propel the acid into the enemy’s direction.
Lightning (Blue): The dragon is capable of bioelectrogenesis. Specialized proteins pump certain ions into or out of the cells to create an electrostatic gradient. Through continuous stimulus conduction, this electric potential accumulates in the mouth. The dragon then spits a conductive liquid at the target, along which the current travels to its intended victim. Since the liquid evaporates nearly instantly during this process, it is not visible to the naked eye.
Acid Gas (Green) : Just like Acid. However this dragon’s stomach contents are under higher pressure, which keeps the acid in a liquid state, even though its boiling point is significantly lower than that of the acid of a dragon with acid breath.
Thus, as soon as the acid is expelled, it expands in volume, boiling and thus transforming into a gaseous state.
Cold (White): These dragons possess organs containing extremely compressed gases, that have thus been turned to liquid, or even solid state. When they are expelled, they immediately expand, and thus cool.
Sleep (Brass): These dragons possess an organ filled with a liquid under pressure, that contains sleep hormines including melatonin. As they are expelled, they expand and thus evaporate. Creatures breathing in these vapours quickly fall victim to the hormones triggering the sleep reaction.
Repulsion (Bronze): This dragon, unlike one with Sleep breath, uses various fear hormones with complicated names, causing their opponents to fall into a panic and run away.
Slow (Copper): These dragons’ breath weapon works similarily to Sleep and Repulsion Breath, but instead contains enzymes that inhibit the calcium receptors in the targets muscles, making it harder to use them and thus more difficult to run away.
Weaken (Gold): Just like Sleep, Repulsion and Slow, Weakening Breath works by using a hormone. This one prevents Adenosine Triphosphate to be split, thus denying the body of its main source of energy and hindering most bodily processes, weakening the target.
Paralysis (Silver): This one works through - who’d have guessed it - an enzyme blocking the Na/Ca cotransporter in the axons of the nervous system. Thus the electrochemical potential used to transmit signal breaks down, preventing the target from using their muscles.
Aren’t hormones cool?
You are so damn cool.

Yeah, hello Question
Every time I go to the bathroom I keep seeing rainbows on the walls,,, Why do the gays like to watch me shit?
Queer people don’t defecate, so they tend to watch others to try and understand this “human race” thing better. Now some of these queer people belong to the “invisible orientations” such as Asexuals, Bisexuals and Pansexuals. As the name indicates, they are invisible. However light is still refracted from the copious amounts of glitter they are carrying, thus creating these rainbows on the walls. Don’t be alarmed; they tend to be friendly creatures and won’t bite unless asked nicely.
