It isn't easy for me to ask for help. I'm prideful as sin, and I usually dislike asking for help. But I'm in a corner. My parents have told me if I don't have $1000 in my bank account by June, they'll kick me out of my house. I have a job, so it's easy to come by money. The issue is, my job is mediocre and minimum wage, and it has to be split between school expenses, lunch for work almost every day, bus passes to get to work on days I don't have a car because my parents need it, and paying my phone bill. I'm still in school, so a better job isn't much of an option currently. I can't really afford to live in a place that demands rent, so I've come to you all to ask for help. I've set up a GoFundme for this. The money will go towards school and all my necessities, and with any luck, I'll be on my own next fall. I'll be living on campus. If you could please donate or spread this on tumblr, it would mean so much to me. This site is wonderful, and full of wonderful people. I've seen us band together to make changes happen. Not necessarily in the world, but on here, and that means something.

It means a lot.
Zander was one of my best friends ever. I was very fortunate to meet him (and date him for a couple weeks at one point), as he changed me for the better. When I heard the news, I was heartbroken. I was more or less mad that I didn't help. He just messaged me that he loved me and all his friends, and I told him I loved him too. It was Valentine's Day, what was I meant to think? Waking up to the news of his death the next morning was tragic. My friends and I cried for hours. The chat on skype just wasn't the same without him there. I met him via a voice acting blog on tumblr for Dangan Ronpa. We connected, and the last voice acting we did together was for the DR Parody Dingle Rumpus. He was Sayaka, and I was Leon. Anyway, back to the point. When we all received news that he was to be buried under his birth name, we protested. Wrote in the funeral home guestbook that he was a boy named Zander. A boy who was our friend and had touched our lives. What we got in return was deleted comments. So we turned to social media. We started the tag #HisNameWasZander on Twitter and tumblr, and we're eternally grateful for all of the support we received. So many people have been so kind as to support trans teens after this. It truly makes me happy to see that my friend can be remembered the way he wanted to be-- as a boy named Zander Nicholas Mahaffey. His name was Zander. He loved anime, vocaloids, Cosplay, and most of all, he loved his friends. Before I end this personal recount of the situation, I'd like to share with you what he wrote to me in his suicide note. It broke my heart, but it reassures me we were friends to the end. Reading it, I cant help but feel a bit guilty that my breaking up with him shattered his heart and I never got to outright say "I'm sorry," but I feel like he forgave me in the end. If you'd like to pay your respects and send a kind word to his girlfriend, her blog is linked in the description of Zander's blog, and should appear when you click on the link to his suicide note. I'd post it directly, but it's against the rules to advertise. But I do have a personal request as a KH-Vids user. Please don't let my friend's memory fade. Don't let another transgender teen fall victim to this vicious cycle. Don't let the world forget that his name was Zander. He was my friend, and loved him very much. If you would like to help our movement, you can message me directly on here or my tumblr.

It started as a normal day for me, just walking in town, when I see a building entrance explode and people go everywhere and run away. I saw a Green Flashman burst out and flee. So I did the sensible thing and morphed into the Green Ranger and gave chase. I caught up to Flash Green on the balcony of a building and we exchanged blows until Flash Green fled. I powered down and went home to clean myself up and be ready for the next attack, when I see that Katy Perry is in town and is giving a concert that's being shown on national television. In the middle of the broadcast she cries out in pain and transforms into Flash Green. Before I go on, I want to make clear I have no idea why it was Katy Perry and not a celebrity I like more, like Jennifer Lawrence or Karen Gillan. Anyway, I race to the venue and morph, then we exchange blows again until I overcome her and she's passed out in my arms. Suddenly Rita Repulsa and Goldar appear and Rita's all "Magic Wand, make my Goldar Grow!" So Goldar's all huge and destroying ****. Naturally, I know what to do. "I need Dragonzord Power," I said as I unhooked my Dragon Dagger from my belt and played the tune to summon the Dragonzord. The Dragonzord and I beat Goldar, Rita fled, and I saved Katy Perry and then she just left and said the town was too weird for her. tl;dr I saved Katy Perry by being a power ranger. I don't know what caused this dream.
And apparently, my parents were going out this morning, but my dad hadn't gotten a good night's sleep (his back usually troubles him) so he backed up in their car. And He just Smushed in the bumper of my car and it raised the hood up a bit. His car had a BIKE RACK attached and the corner is what hit my car. *LOUD SIGH* I didn't think I could hate my dad's driving anymore than I already do...
So here, have an adorable dark mage
So much has already happened -Chrom is hot (when I look at him from my character's POV) -Marth is a badass and Lissa needs to stop being a fangirl -Chrom's already walked in on me bathing and I'm okay with that
Like just pick a day (or a couple) Pick a partner Pick a team And we have a few teams duke it out And post the codes for the Vs Recorder so everyone can watch it And have a couple judges that say "This person really did win" Then at the end we have the two remaining partners duke it out
We need to make this forum showy. No but for real, anyone wanna be the other four Gokaigers?
Why is there not a thread about Mean Girls yet?
So very recently I was looking through tumblr and I found an audio post that had an image of a favorite character of mine as the album art, curious, I clicked it and was introduced to this lovely song: Anyway, I'm curious. Has anyone else here heard of her? And if so, what songs by her do you recommend? I've only heard a couple, but I really love her sound and stuff.
I'm not sorry for picking Hakodate as my theme.
This is Dangan Ronpa related btw.
[insert venting here]
I see you are all still in this despair-filled hole.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (formerly Ninja Turtles) is a 2014 reboot of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie series. It's set to be produced by Michael Bay and released on August 8th, 2014 in the US. Spoiler: Movie Poster Personally, I feel like so far the movie is going to suck. I really don't want it to, but there are so many things wrong with it. The design of the Turtles is atrocious IMO though, and I really wish they weren't trying to go for such a gritty look. I will say though, Megan Fox doesn't look horrible as April O' Niel. She's pulling off the look pretty well: Sources: http://m.imdb.com/title/tt1291150/ http://turtlepedia.wikia.com/wiki/Teenage_Mutant_Ninja_Turtles_(2014_film)
