Forget the rest of the fireworks around the world, these are the best. HNY.
The finale HOLY SHIT!!!
This is actually the first time I was impressed by a firework
For anyone interested, the music is by a composer named Thomas Bergersen, and the piece playing is called Homecoming from his Illusions album. I listen to his music whenever I need to be inspired to write.
i have this headcanon that lily evans was the type of person to wear a different hairstyle every single day. she tried really hard to try something different/new all of the time. the younger gryffindors asked her to braid their hair for them whenever she had the time.
EVERYONE SAY THANK YOU STACEY ABRAMS, A DARK SKINNED EDUCATED BLACK WOMAN TO DO THE WORK THAT SHE DID IN GEORGIA TO FIGHT VOTER SUPPRESSION, INTIMIDATION AND POLL TAXES AND TURNING GEORGIA BLUE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THIRTY FCKING YEARS
Just want to say how proud of i am of america right now. Removing a dictator during a dictatorship is near impossible (typically it takes civil war or a death/ power vacuum) but for four years you’ve been fighting back and now you’re fighting a heavily rigged, horribly unfair election and not giving Trump that “landslide victory” dictators typically get. I want you to know that many of us across the world, see those 50/50 looking results and don’t see america as half and half but 30% cultists who were given an easy vote and 70% people who’s vote was very hard to get out (we saw the lines, we saw the fake ballotboxes) and often outright thrown away. We hear that more people voted for Biden than have ever voted for a candidate before. We see your judges fighting to have every vote counted and the diverse new congressfolks you’ve voted in. The narrative of a close race omits that one team had skates on a downhill road and the other had an obstacle couse littered with dirty needles, fences to break through, barbed wire to crawl under and rabid dogs blocking the way.
I actually needed to hear this I think. All I’ve been hearing for the last few years is how terrible America is and I know that reputation is earned but I and so many other people have been fighting this whole time because we love our country and trust our institutions and don’t want to see them fall and I know we’re not the best neighbors to have but we’re trying and it makes me so happy to see that someone, anyone, understands that we’re trying.
wow i wonder if that 300 year gap could be explained by any outside factors…….whoa! for some reason it lines up with the timeline of britain’s invasion and subsequent colonization of ireland! wild, huh? i wonder if the two are connected in some way? i guess the world will never know….
“why do the Irish hate the English so much? It couldn’t have been *that* bad!!”
This was in place till 1973.
Seeing non irish people reblogging this makes me happy
