26 | she/her | Spoonie | Been dealing with chronic pain since about 9 years old. Finally diagnosed with fibromyalgia 2017. I have 3 amazing furbabies named Lulu and Canela and Creature. They help me get through rough times and have never failed to make me laugh with their antics. Don't be afraid to reach out to me :)
Everything about this is so fucking funny. The song. The chubby dances. The way he just gets fucking KIDNAPPED. The presentation of the guy in the white shirt in the picture when he returns. This is my favorite post.
Not to turn mental illness into relatable content but is there anything more hilarious then spending an entire day vamping up to do something like spending ALL day thinking about it and putting it off and dreading it and then you finally, FINALLY do it and it takes 6 seconds and you realize that was your whole day plan
“No, beloved,” the haunted whisper came, full of dust, full of memory, “It says Be Aware of Ghosts. Not Beware of Ghosts. Know us and let us know you. Your precious bones, your warm blood, your rapidly beating heart.”
In the cold gloom, I breathed easier, in the haunted room, I felt at home. At last, at long last, I was home.
when you break a world record, but a man comes in second (x)
And it’s worth note that Ledecky didn’t just win the 800 freestyle- she obliterated it:
Thats her. And those specks in the distance are her competitors. The second place swimmer was 11 SECONDS behind her. 11 seconds is FOREVER in something like this. Most second place swimmers in most races finish fractions of a second behind the first place swimmer.
Her finishing with none of her competitors in sight. And that yellow line is the previous world record’s pace. Ledecky is more than a full body length ahead.
Which, btw, she did in the 400m freestyle earlier in the games. Seen here:
(The previous world record in this race was held by her, to begin with, btw. As well as the 3 world record times preceding that one.)
So to sum it up: Yeah, Phelps is one of the most decorated Olympic swimmers ever etc etc but him getting silver means jack in the face of the actual-human-avatar-of-Poseidon that is Katie Ledecky.
11 (ELEVEN) SECONDS FUCK THE WHAT THIS IS NOT GETTING ENOUGH COVERAGE. i should have had that information before now
