Im done
It’s Grantaire’s solo that didn’t make it to the final cut of the 2012 movie. And George sang it completely in character. It was calm and peaceful, but with undertones of fear and sadness.
It’s June 5th (or 6th in the east), the anniversary of the Paris Uprising of 1832, which the Les Amis de l'ABC could’ve been part of have they actually existed 184 years ago. GEORGE POSTED IT AT 1 A.M. A VERY APPROPRIATE TIME, PROBABLY THE TIME THE AMIS STARTED SINGING ‘DRINK WITH ME’.
George took the video at the intersection of Rue Rambuteau and Rue Mondétour, THE SITE OF THE BARRICADE. THE SITE WHERE THE LES AMIS DE L'ABC SUPPOSEDLY FELL. Let that sink in for a moment.
For the reason above, “will the world remember you when you fall?” is very painful because the June Rebellion of 1832 is a very obscure piece of French history, and it is Hugo’s ‘Les Misérables’ that gave this event widespread renown, as Hugo himself witnessed the battles at the barricades. (Side note: Do you know why they call it ‘Rebellion’? It’s because it failed. The republicans lost. If they didn’t, it would probably be called 'Revolution’.)
Happy(???) Barricade Day, indeed. RIP, the fallen republicans of the 1832 Paris Uprising
This is mesmerizing to watch.
You didn’t see that coming?
Peter: Ugh i need pizza
Tony: I know a great pizza place
Tony: [Takes peter to Rome]
Take this everyone, you deserve it
bucky barnes buying an entire ranch and growing a dick-long beard after iw cause hes a hundred years old and he doesnt give a shit anymore. tony comes to him to ask him if he wants to join the avengers now and bucky goes “no thanks but i could acquaint you with my new team. meet tony bark, steed rogers and natasha romancalf. oh, and theres mark Buffalo” and tony just :) awkwardly and leaves forever
Villain and Hero going round after round until Hero finally slips up and Villain gets the upper hand, pinning them hard against the wall. Hero’s panting, bruised and bloody, eyes narrowed and defiant, daring Villain to do their worst. And Villain can’t help but give in to impulse and kiss them.
Bonus: Hero freezes up, completely shocked, and does nothing to stop them.
Bonus bonus: Hero freezes for just a moment and then melts, kissing back.
Bonus bonus bonus: Hero kisses back with purpose and then uses the distraction as a chance to finally stun and capture Villain.
I must be stopped
i never talk about these things but i can’t remain silent.
i know tumblr doesn’t give a SHIT when things happen in countries outside the “most popular ones” (such as the usa & england). it’s true, don’t lie to me. y’all don’t give A FUCK. not every issue and problem in said countries gets the appropriate exposure but in general shit shows up on the news WORLD FREAKING WIDE. you set up donations, you help out, your spread the word, you say “pray for x”……
southern europe is burning.
my country is burning.
people are dying - at home, on the road, trying to run away, in their cars.
yesterday my country had 300 active fires.
people are losing EVERYTHING they own.
i have a friend that is on a train right now passing through places that have been burnt to the ground and she says the smoke is so intense it’s getting inside the train and she can barely breathe.
and yet, even though several people (myself included) have been trying to bring awareness to what has been happening in southern europe… what we get from most of you, those not part of the countries suffering, is silence. we don’t ask for money, we don’t ask for shit other than a reblog to spread awareness… something you can delete in 24/48hrs if you wish.
i don’t know what to tell you. i’m angry. i’m frustrated. i’m disappointed. i feel like i’m screaming into the void. “a reblog does nothing” - you know that’s a damn lie, you know exposure always helps, you know people start paying attention when posts on social media become popular. my country in particular is a small one, we get ZERO exposure. y’all are only starting to figure out we even fucking exist bc of the shit we’ve been winning lately.
but hell, if the EU doesn’t give a shit, why should some user on tumblr dot com?
again, i don’t know what to tell you so i’ll let the images speak for themselves:
