“The Fault in our Death Stars”
So I had this idea ages ago, but I never really got started on it.Earlier this month, I finally did and it turned out great! :DSo I’m saving this graphic for May 4th, but now I find out #thefaultinourdeathstars is already a thing?!?
Oh well. I guess there’s little point in keeping it from you, then…
Anyway, I was on a roll, so this also happened:

Oh… my god.

*fangirling over John Green fangirling over someone I also fangirl over*

Fangirling over you fangirling over John fangirling over someone I also fangirl over.
However, allow me to suggest that we all just calm down and appreciate each other as human beings for a moment…before continuing to flail.

I’m just wondering why it’s so bad to “fangirl” lately. It seems like people who are excited to see people they look up to or respect a lot are getting a lot of heat on youtube lately and I just don’t get it. I understand people can take it too far (I know what a sasaeng and anti-fan are afterall) but this isn’t true of all fangirling. Is putting it down now trying to stop that kind of fangirling? I guess, but all it makes me feel is ashamed to like a youtuber so much and ashamed to even want to meet them.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with fangirling. I just heard some anecdotal reports coming out of Playlist Live of people following creators into bathrooms with cameras, camping outside their hotel room doors, pushing and shoving to get access, and generally being not-awesome. 
That’s way beyond fangirling, but sometimes people don’t get that. I want us to remember that we’re all people, on both sides of every interaction. 
I am extremely honored that people get excited about seeing me, and their excitement makes me excited and it’s wonderful. 99.99999% of those interactions have been overwhelmingly positive…some of those moments have been the best of my life. But there’s a line, and if you forget that people are people, it’s easy to cross it. 
It’s also important to remember that that line can be crossed from either side, sometimes creators likewise forget that their fans are people, and they don’t treat them with respect…I have even more contempt for that.
So yeah…never be ashamed of your enthusiasms…fangirling is for everyone and there’s no shame in it. You should have seen me when I met Neil Gaiman in New York…i was USELESS!

So I guess there is some confusion about this, but:
One does not know whether one’s child is male or female or intersex until that child is born. If you get chromosomal testing (which is still quite rare), I suppose you can have a pretty good (although still not 100%) idea, and the ultrasound technicians will make a (sometimes very well informed) guess if you ask them to. But you don’t really know until the child is born.
So yeah, the reason I’m not talking about the sex is that the kid in question does not yet exist, and I feel weird about publicly assigning a sex to a person who is not even a person yet.
We are very excited to have another baby, though, so YAY regardless of whether the baby is male or female or neither.

You see how fake it all is. It’s not even hard enough to be made out of plastic. It’s a paper town. I mean look at it, Q: look at all those cul-de-sacs, those streets that turn in on themselves, all the houses that were built to fall apart. All those paper people living in their paper houses, burning the future to stay warm. All the paper kids drinking beer some bum bought for them at the paper convenience store. Everyone demented with the mania of owning things. All the things paper-thin and paper-frail. And all the people, too. I’ve lived here for eighteen years and I have never once in my life come across anyone who cares about anything that matters.
