If I’ve learned anything from video games, it is that when you meet enemies, it means that you’re going in the right direction.
that’s really inspiring
holy fucking shit
And the harder they hit, the higher the level you’ve reached.

Please stop giving away so much personal information about yourself.
It doesnt seem like it but your blog is visited by hundreds of people with hundreds of different intentions weekly (or hell daily if ur a popular blogger). And posting your height, age, gender, privileges, all of your triggers, gives away a lot of information that you may regret posting later on.
The internet is a very scary place. Full of people who could do you harm with that sort of information.
You all have to understand that nothing on the internet is ever truly deleted or gone. So you REALLY have to be careful about what you post and say.
A lot of you are keen to posting opinions online and as we all know on the internet opinions are going to anger a lot of people.
People could potentially track and harass you. It is a very dangerous world full of messed up people. And as minors you should all be very wary of who you trust online and think twice before you post something. Just posting “please dont follow if youre _____” isnt going to help from that.

Please stop posting your skype address.
I know it’s tempting to make new friends. And I know that faceless people are easier to talk to. But it’s dangerous. And we’re not trying to parent or berate you. We just want you to be safe.
Trust me.
Down the road you’re gonna realize you made a lot of dumb mistakes trying to be friends with the world. The world isn’t made of all friendly people. And I truly adore your optimism. I’m the same way.
But I’d rather you learn in a safe setting then after putting yourself in harms way.
Love,

Signal boosting the hell out of this.
Protecting your privacy is a learned skill. It doesn’t come naturally, particularly on a media designed to allow you to connect with others. And we all want to connect with others.
But it’s an important skill. Gain awareness early, make good choices, do not put yourself in a position where days, months, years, or decades down the line someone will use your own data against you.
This is not about stranger danger, this is not about the older tumblr generation “not getting it” and adopting a helicopter parenting approach to their younger tumblr siblings’ online shenanigans.
This is about the older generation having experienced rapid changes in technology first hand and knowing that none of us can know what to expect next, that none of us can predict what uses people, businesses and governments will come up with next for your data.
We don’t know. You don’t know. And in many cases, they don’t know. Yet.
Look up the term “precautionary principle” on Wikipedia and aim to apply it. Protect your data, protect yourself, protect your future self.
For any of my younger followers.
And another big thing. The fact that you mutually follow each other means nothing. By all means talk to people but you’re NOT automatically friends. They’ve done nothing to earn your trust and you don’t know what they actually want. Don’t assume that everyone is automatically good and trustworthy.
I need all of my followers to see this. I don’t want y’all hurt.
Since my first post of headcanons was so popular, I thought I’d follow up with this one. And today I want to talk about the crew doing good things.
- I want to talk about Jack raising money for charity, Jack who goes to children’s hospitals and pays the kids medical bills, Jack who makes sure those hospitals have all the money they could possibly need. I want to talk about some Make A Wish kid asking to meet whoever paid for his stay in the hospital, and after the agent (or whatever they’re called, I don’t really know how Make A Wish works) finally find out that it was Jack and despite the problems that might arise from bringing a known criminal around a child, goes to meet with Jack. And Jack is ecstatic to meet this kid.
- I want Michael who volunteers at suicide and rape hotlines, who won’t hesitate to help someone in need. Who once burned a guys house down because he had drove his girlfriend to try and commit suicide (Michael was on the phone with her when it happened and thankfully an ambulance got there on time), Michael who the next day went in to the hospital and brought the girl flowers and made sure she was going to be okay.
- I want Ryan, who, despite all the scary Vagabond persona, refuses to hurt innocent people. Ryan who once shielded a woman who got caught in a fire fight and got her to safety. Ryan who will work day and night whenever children go missing, and God help you if finds out you hurt kids in any way. Ryan who, when a teenager approached him with a hundred dollars and asked him to kill her abusive parents, refused to take her money and did the job anyway.
- I want Geoff who gives out money to all the people who are struggling, Geoff funding soup kitchens and homeless shelters. Geoff giving hundred dollar bills to single parents and anyone who needs it. Geoff who doesn’t just throw money at the poorer parts of Los Santos and expect things to fix themselves, he works to change things and he doesn’t let people just ignore people who are less fortunate.
- I want Jeremy, who never had a family before joining the crew, never wants anyone to grow up like he did, always fighting to keep what little you could get, just to stay alive. Jeremy going out and working to help keep kids off the street, Jeremy fighting anyone who tries to exploit these kids. Jeremy teaching self defense so people know how to defend themselves. Jeremy tanking a whole B Team heist because someone from another crew they were working with said something nasty to Kdin, and Jeremy won’t stand for anyone disrespecting her.
- I want Gavin who flies back to England every month and visits his parents and makes sure they have enough money and everything they need. Gavin who always brings back little gifts for everyone in the crew from every trip he goes on. Gavin who didn’t grow up with much money, so he uses his newfound wealth to help everyone.
I want the crew going to protests and helping people and making the world a little better for the people who deserve it.
i singlehandedly destroyed an economy once
explain
when i was like 12 i played on a private server of a popular MMORPG that had a couple hundred thousand players or so. there was this item you could get from a boss that you needed to make the best equipment in the game but the boss only spawned once every couple hours
anyway since i was 12 and had nothing else to do i played this game from the moment i got home from school until i went to bed and eventually i got a couple of them. people sold them in their personal stores for about 1 million so i sold mine and then started buying them from every store i could find and then selling them in my own store for an inflated price. i kept doing this every day and then soon they were being sold for 2-3 billion each
so i personally caused one of the most important items in the game to increase in price by ~2000x. and to make it even worse i got bored of the game like a few weeks later and never played again, leaving everyone else to deal with the mess i caused
Came up with this last night, couldn’t think of a better place to put it so here have some silly FAHC headcannons (mostly for Ryan cause I’m a+ t r a s h)
I was 10 years old when it happened. It wasn’t something big. That’s why I didn’t talk, that’s why now when I think about it, I still want to cry.
He didn’t mean any harm, he didn’t wanted to impact me or my personal life, for him it was normal.
We were in my sister’s room, my sister was there, she’s younger than me.He was a teenager.
“Have you ever kiss someone?” He had asked gently, and I shook my head. My sister nodded, she was smiling brightly.
He asked her if he could kiss her and she was happy to do it, it was just a “game” after all.
“And you ? Why wouldn’t you try now ?”
I didn’t wanted to. I was keeping my first kiss for someone special, someone I loved.
“Come on, it would be fun.” “No..” I said, hoping he would let it go. But of course he didn’t.
“If you don’t that mean you don’t love me.”
“If you don’t that mean you’re not my friend anymore.”
“Don’t you want to be my friend ? I thought I was.”
My sensitive ass started to cry. He was my friend. I did love him in a friendly way. I didn’t wanted to.
“We’re not Friends ???“
My sister added “It’s just a kiss.”
And I did it, crying, without wanting to, thinking to myself “you won’t remember that moment”
I did, I still do, and that kiss is haunting me. I’m 8 years older now, I just can’t kiss anyone because this experience is still haunting me.
Please, parents, sisters, cousins or even friends

Women’s History Month might be drawing to a close, but women’s history itself is being written as we speak.
To link the last 30 days to the next 30 years, we’ve put together a series on some of the women who are making history today over on our @postitforward Tumblr. Six ceiling-shattering women from six different fields, six up-close-and-personal interviews, six motion-portrait GIFs from six of our finest female Creatrs.
From left to right, top to bottom: Geena Rocero, Founder of Gender Proud and host of ASPIREist on USA; Kamala Harris, Attorney General of California; Laura Weidman Powers, Co-founder and CEO of CODE2040; Cecile Richards, President of Planned Parenthood; Rebecca Cokley, Executive Director of the National Council on Disability; Ellen Ochoa, Director of the Johnson Space Center.

celebrate your personal victories because no one else understands what it took to accomplish them
Parents: This can’t be true about you, you didn’t show any signs when you were younger!
Also parents: *would have destroyed your life if you’d shown any signs when you were younger*
Also parents: *aggressively ignored all signs you’ve ever shown*
also parents: *labeled any and all signs as personal failures of yours*
also parents: *vindicates you for not being good at the things they made you repress*
soo it’s been a few days since the s7 trailer dropped (!!!) and i’ve watched it about 1000 times now, so i’m finally putting all my thoughts into a post! warning: this is a LONG ASS POST i’m so sorry. ALSO: i am not taking any “spoilers” into consideration, other than set photos. these are purely my own personal thoughts and opinions! i’ll be posting in chronological order - here we go! :)
Prompt: “If you are interested, maybe some fluffy Gavin with the rest of the crew?“
I am always down for fluff
The day’s heist had been successful, everyone made it back in one piece and their goal was achieved. Several chickens had been placed in multiple LSPD stations across town with personal notes from Geoff himself.
Gavin had spent the “heist” at the penthouse directing everyone and monitoring the security cameras of each police station; acting as back up just in case somehow something went wrong (and even if it was a joke heist, there was always the threat of danger with them).
He was laying on the couch in the main room of the penthouse, wrapped up in a blanket with a movie already waiting to be played (they had all agreed before hand on Kingsman). Gavin had made sure to get the extra pillows, blankets, and beanbag chairs out for everyone; as well as some of their usual snacks like marshmallows and popcorn. There was a small cooler stocked with drinks for everyone ranging from soda to alcohol (a couple of waters were thrown in as well).
The first ones to arrive were Jack and Michael, and they quickly settled in. Michael took as many pillows as he could get his hands on and recruited Gavin to help build a pillow fort. Jack buried herself into the beanbag as far as possible, pulling out her phone to videotape the bois.
Ryan and Jeremy walked in about five minutes later and their conversation was interrupted when Jeremy saw the pillow fort that was being constructed. Ryan disappeared down the hall for a little while (everyone knew he was just changing, snuggle piles aren’t fun when you have face paint on).
Geoff was the last one to show up only because he had picked the police station farthest from the penthouse to hit. His suit jacket was quickly shed as he joined the Lads in the pillow fort, snagging a bag of marshmallows in the process.
Once everyone was together they each gave Gavin a quick hug or kiss as a thank you for not only watching their backs, but for getting movie night set up on his own.
It only took ten minutes into the movie for the pillow fort to be taken down and scrapped for pieces as everyone maneuvered into one massive cuddle pile; a mess of limbs, pillows, blankets, snacks, and beanbags as everyone found the comfiest position to relax and watch the movie with the ones they loved.
