Afternoon Dump 14/11

So I decided to go ahead with this because I needed to take a break from Translator, which I'm already a fuckton behind and if my calculations are correct I need to be at least 5000 words deep by tomorrow....fffffffffff
anyway, here's the news.

It's just leading a greater hand into the arms of the pirates.

Music has always been an uphill battle to trying to NOT seduce kids into listening to their catchy beats and lyrical exchanges. I mean, in Forks...wait

You mean...

Oh you poor people.
