"I have to show you this," I said. "When I read it the voice in my head was yours "
"Wild," my husband replied. Then, "wait, did I write this?"
"What? You have a Tumblr?"
"Oh yeah," he said. "I'm not on it often anymore though. Look--can't be me, too recent. Neat "
"I've been on here for years and never seen you!"
A shrug. "I'm not into Dr. Who."
What a way to find out my husband is on my fave hellsite.
#the adventures of laura and anthony#i still don't know his username#and apparently it's bern about four years#BUT THATS NOTHING#i've been here for more than a decade!#i should have expected that though#because we lived a 4 minute drive from each other for 12 years before we met

Bear with me for a moment. Ahem
THIS IS NOT A FUCKING DRILL GUYS GALS AND NONBINARY PALS
I'm freaking the FUCK out about this new borderlands news
Look. The 'where are Fiona and Sasha' question has been on my mind since the day I finished playing tales for the first time. It wasn't in 2016 but it's still been several years.
The fact that we are getting a novella, if not a full fledged novel, of Fiona and Sasha's adventures post tales, makes me so goddamn happy I could cry.
We worried. That there wouldn't be a satisfying story to where the sisters have gone. That we may never hear from them again. Then New Tales came out and an optional ending revealed absolutely nothing other than the fact that they could rehire Laura Bailey but not Troy Baker
anyways
We're getting a novel written by an established writer who's worked in the franchise for over a decade. It's Anthony burch. We either love him, or we hate him. Or tolerate him. Either way, the man's worked in borderlands for such a long time, he knows the universe he's helped create
This might be the best thing to happen to the franchise since tales. A chance to have a proper story opportunity for the sisters, that doesn't skimp on any details that a shitty dlc would miss.
I'm fucking hyped. Fiona and Sasha stans rise because in like six months, there's gonna be new lore.
#shut up shawna#borderlands stuff#look im not saying we should worship anthony burch's feet or anything but whoever made this decision????#that person deserves SLOPPY toppy.

Along for the ride with Anderson are Jason Schwartzman, Scarlett Johansson, Tom Hanks, Jeffrey Wright, Tilda Swinton, and another dozen or so actors and actresses that we don’t have room to mention.
No Hard Feelings - Jennifer Lawerence stars in this hard-R coming-of-age sex comedy (a genre rarely seen in theaters anymore). Andrew Barth Feldman, Matthew Broderick, Laura Benanti, and Natalie Morales co-star.
June 30th
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny - Harrison Ford is back on Dr. Henry Jones, Jr. in this fifth installment of the Indiana Jones series. James Mangold takes over directing duties from Steven Spielberg in what billed to be Ford’s last outing on the adventure-find professor of archeology.
Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken - From Dreamworks animation comes this new fantasy action-film that feels part Luca and part Onward.
Now for a quick look ahead to July, my top picks for next month are Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One and Oppenheimer.

More Read Alikes: Tomorrow, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin
The Keeper of Lost Things by Ruth Hogan
Lime green plastic flower-shaped hair bobbles - Found, on the playing field, Derrywood Park, 2nd September.
Bone china cup and saucer - Found, on a bench in Riveria Public Gardens, 31st October.
Anthony Peardew is the keeper of lost things. Forty years ago, he carelessly lost a keepsake from his beloved fiancée, Therese. That very same day, she died unexpectedly. Brokenhearted, Anthony sought consolation in rescuing lost objects - the things others have dropped, misplaced, or accidentally left behind - and writing stories about them. Now, in the twilight of his life, Anthony worries that he has not fully discharged his duty to reconcile all the lost things with their owners. As the end nears, he bequeaths his secret life’s mission to his unsuspecting assistant, Laura, leaving her his house and all its lost treasures, including an irritable ghost.
Recovering from a bad divorce, Laura, in some ways, is one of Anthony’s lost things. But when the lonely woman moves into his mansion, her life begins to change. She finds a new friend in the neighbor’s quirky daughter, Sunshine, and a welcome distraction in Freddy, the rugged gardener. As the dark cloud engulfing her lifts, Laura, accompanied by her new companions, sets out to realize Anthony’s last wish: reuniting his cherished lost objects with their owners.
Long ago, Eunice found a trinket on the London pavement and kept it through the years. Now, with her own end drawing near, she has lost something precious - a tragic twist of fate that forces her to break a promise she once made.
As the Keeper of Lost Objects, Laura holds the key to Anthony and Eunice’s redemption. But can she unlock the past and make the connections that will lay their spirits to rest?
The Interestings by Meg Wolitzer
The summer that Nixon resigns, six teenagers at a summer camp for the arts become inseparable. Decades later the bond remains powerful, but so much else has changed. The kind of creativity that is rewarded at age fifteen is not always enough to propel someone through life at age thirty; not everyone can sustain, in adulthood, what seemed so special in adolescence. Jules Jacobson, an aspiring comic actress, eventually resigns herself to a more practical occupation and lifestyle. Her friend Jonah, a gifted musician, stops playing the guitar and becomes an engineer. But Ethan and Ash, Jules's now-married best friends, become shockingly successful - true to their initial artistic dreams, with the wealth and access that allow those dreams to keep expanding. The friendships endure and even prosper, but also underscore the differences in their fates, in what their talents have become and the shapes their lives have taken.
Wide in scope, ambitious, and populated by complex characters who come together and apart in a changing New York City, The Interestings explores the meaning of talent; the nature of envy; the roles of class, art, money, and power; and how all of it can shift and tilt precipitously over the course of a friendship and a life.
Girls They Write Songs About by Carlene Bauer
We moved to New York to want, undisturbed and unchecked. And what did we want?
New York, 1997. As the city's gritty edges are being smoothed into something safer and shinier, two girls meet at a music magazine. Rose - brash and self-possessed - is a staff writer. Charlotte - hesitant, bookish - is an editor. First wary, then slowly admiring, they recognize in each other an insatiable and previously unmatched ambition. Soon they're inseparable, falling into the kind of friendship that makes you better, makes every day an adventure, and makes you believe that you will be extraordinary.
Together, Charlotte and Rose find love and lose it; they hit their strides and stumble; they make choices and live past them. But then the steady beats in their sisterhood fall out of sync. They have seen each other through so much - marriage, motherhood, divorce, career glories and catastrophes, a million small but necessary choices - what will it mean to give up their dreaming together? That the friendship that once made them sing out shuts them down? And even if they can reconcile themselves to the lives they're living, can they survive the ones they didn't?
As smart and comic as it is gloriously exuberant, Carlene Bauer's Girls They Write Songs About takes a timeless story and turns it into a pulsing, wrecking, clear-eyed tale of two women reckoning with the lives they've chosen and the countless ways they - and all the women they've known - have made them who they are.
Me Before You by Jojo Moyes
They had nothing in common until love gave them everything to lose . . .
Louisa Clark is an ordinary girl living an exceedingly ordinary life - steady boyfriend, close family - who has barely been farther afield than their tiny village. She takes a badly needed job working for ex–Master of the Universe Will Traynor, who is wheelchair bound after an accident. Will has always lived a huge life - big deals, extreme sports, worldwide travel - and now he’s pretty sure he cannot live the way he is.
Will is acerbic, moody, bossy - but Lou refuses to treat him with kid gloves, and soon his happiness means more to her than she expected. When she learns that Will has shocking plans of his own, she sets out to show him that life is still worth living.

But once Reggie falls in with a fast-talking, foul-mouthed Boston Terrier named Bug (Jamie Foxx), a stray who loves his freedom and believes that owners are for suckers, Reggie finally realizes he was in a toxic relationship and begins to see Doug for the heartless sleazeball that he is.
Determined to seek revenge, Reggie, Bug and Bug’s pals—Maggie (Isla Fisher), a smart Australian Shepherd who has been sidelined by her owner’s new puppy, and Hunter (Randall Park), an anxious Great Dane who’s stressed out by his work as an emotional support animal—together hatch a plan and embark on an epic adventure to help Reggie find his way home… and make Doug pay by biting off the appendage he loves the most.

Ladies and gentlemen and trees and multi forms, I am so excited. All 3 of the blueberry cuttings I am trying to root have leaf buds that are opening, and one of my chokeberry cuttings does too!
Pic for tax.
This is important because I want to grow SO MANY THINGS but not spend the money for plants from the nursery. Also, it is cool and I feel like a mad scientist.
Usually there is a plastic water bottle with the bottom cut off covering the cutting to keep it in a humid environment, also I covered the top with beeswax to help prevent it from drying out! I purchased the original bush for $12 because it was crispy from being out in the parking lot. It is much happier in front of our apartment window
#the adventures of laura and anthony#you should have seen Anthony's face when I told him about grafting#plants are WILD yo#gonna do this with fruit trees when we have them#the best part is that these cuttings came from canes i pruned because the tops were damaged by draught conditions#besides the rooting hormone they were essentially free

Synopsis:
"Transformers: The Last Knight," directed by Michael Bay, is the fifth installment in the Transformers film series. The movie explores the hidden history of the Transformers on Earth and delves into a battle that could determine the fate of both human and robotic civilizations.
Summary:
"Transformers: The Last Knight" takes the franchise in an ambitious direction, combining elements of history, mythology, and science fiction. The story unfolds as the world faces a new threat—the impending arrival of Cybertron, the home planet of the Transformers. To save Earth, the Autobots and humans must unravel the secrets of the past.
Cade Yeager, portrayed by Mark Wahlberg, returns as a key figure in the conflict. Alongside a new group of allies, including the brilliant Oxford professor Viviane Wembley, played by Laura Haddock, and the enigmatic Sir Edmund Burton, portrayed by Anthony Hopkins, Cade embarks on a global quest to locate an artifact that holds the key to saving humanity.
As the Transformers' history is unveiled and ancient myths are brought to light, the line between hero and villain becomes blurred. Optimus Prime, the noble leader of the Autobots, is manipulated by a mysterious force and turns against his human allies. The stakes are raised as Cade and his team must not only prevent the destruction of Earth but also find a way to bring back their fallen leader.
"Transformers: The Last Knight" delivers the trademark Michael Bay spectacle with explosive action sequences and stunning visual effects. The film showcases massive battles, from epic clashes between giant transforming robots to intense confrontations between humans and their alien counterparts. The CGI work seamlessly integrates with live-action elements, providing an immersive cinematic experience.
Mark Wahlberg brings his trademark charisma to the role of Cade Yeager, showcasing a mix of determination, resourcefulness, and loyalty. Laura Haddock delivers a strong performance as Viviane Wembley, displaying intelligence and courage in the face of danger. Anthony Hopkins adds gravitas to the film with his portrayal of Sir Edmund Burton, bringing depth and intrigue to his enigmatic character.
The voice performances of Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime and Frank Welker as Megatron continue to impress, providing emotional depth and power to their iconic characters. The supporting cast, including Josh Duhamel as Colonel Lennox and Isabela Merced as Izabella, contributes to the film's dynamic ensemble, adding both comedic and dramatic moments.
While "Transformers: The Last Knight" received mixed reviews, the film caters to fans of the franchise by expanding the mythology and offering a visually stunning experience. It combines thrilling action, compelling characters, and a sense of adventure as it sets the stage for future conflicts.
In conclusion, "Transformers: The Last Knight" provides an ambitious and action-packed continuation of the Transformers saga. With its engaging story, impressive visual effects, and strong performances, the film offers an entertaining and immersive experience that keeps audiences invested in the fate of humanity and the heroic Autobots.

A Helping Hand - Chapter 5
Main Masterlist
Series Masterlist
Summary - As a woman who is pregnant you are doing anything if it means survival. Even so you found yourself in the wrong place at the wrong time, or was it the other way around? Now you are in the community of Jackson and you can’t help but attract a certain pair of hazel eyes.
"Joel you didn't need to do this. You could have waited until some of the others could help..." You say in a scolding manner. Joel set a relatively large box down at the foot of the stairs before walking up to you. "I told ya. I don't want to waste any more time." He says and you guide him to the couch and sit down with a huff. "And you are turning into a sap." You says with a giggle and Joel blushes slightly.
Joel lays a hand on your stomach and smiles when he feels a kick against his palm. "He bein' rowdy?" Joel asks and you sigh leaning your head back. "I think he is just as excited as me." You say looking over and placing your hand on top of his lacing your fingers together. You both stare at each other for a moment before a knock on the screen door breaks it. You both look over and see Dina standing on the other side. "Hey Dina!" You say and grunt as you try to stand up. "Joel help me up please?" You ask with a sigh and he chuckles before gently hoisting you up. You smiles and place a hand on his upper arm and smile. "Thank you." You say before heading over to the screen door and opening it. "He-" "So how is the moving going?" Dina asks in excitement. "It is going okay." You say with a laugh. "Joel refuses to let me or anyone help." You say sending a playful glare over to him. He smiles and walks into the kitchen. "How have you been Dina?" You ask stepping outside with her. "I have... I have been okay..." You look at her concerned before guiding her to sit on the steps with you. "What is it D?" You ask placing a hand on her shoulder.
"I'm feeling conflicted." She states. "About what?" You ask and she sighs. "Have you... Have you ever had feelings for someone you have no chance with?" She asks her brown eyes meeting yours. "I mean... Yeah there were times I did. Why?" Dina begins to fidget next to you. "Dina... you can tell me anything." You say wrapping your arm around her shoulder. She sighs and leans into you. "I broke up with Jesse... Again." She says sadly. "Does this have to do with the 'Person you have no chance with?'" You ask and she nods. "Let me ask you a few questions." You says and she nods looking up at you. "Have you known this person for a while?" You ask and she nods. "Do you really like this person?" Dina nods again and you form a smirk on your face. "Is this person a spitfire with a scar on her eyebrow?" You ask and she gasps "B-But how!" She exclaims. "I can see the chemistry between the two of you." you say with a small smile. Dina has a blush present on her face and your smile widens. "I'm sure everything will work out the way it should. Now how about we go inside and have something to drink." You say using the railing to get up. Dina stands up next to you and walks to the screen door opening it for you as you both walk in.
Joel walk in with a mug and hands it to you. "Thank you Joel." You say with a smile before taking a sip of tea. He nods and looks at Dina before leaning down and kissing your temple and saying. "I will be at the workshop for a bit. That okay?" You sigh and nod. "You don't have to ask to go places love..." You says placing your hand on his bicep and he nods. "I know I just want to make sure you are okay sweetheart." He says and you lean up and kiss his cheek and he blushes. "I'm not due for a little bit. You don't need to worry. Now get that cute butt down to the shop." You say smacking his butt as he walks past and he lets out a chuckle. "Seeya sweetheart." He says through the screen door before walking down the steps and in the Direction of the shop. You let out a sweet sigh before turning to Dina. "Sorry about that..." You say with a blush. "He doesn't like to much PDA." Dina has a smirk on her face as she sits down and asks "So how is he in the sack?" and you gasp. "Dina!" She lets out a few giggles before calming down. "We just started dating and I- We want to take it slow." Dina nods. You wobble over and sit next to her on the couch and sip your tea some more. "Can I touch your bump?" She asks and you let out a playful annoyed sigh. "Can't keep your hands off of me huh?" You say with a smirk and she nods. "Go ahead." You say lifting your cup off your stomach and to the side table. She squeals and places her hands on your belly.
"How does Ellie feel about you moving in?" Dina asks and you smile. "She has her own space but I think she is glad that Joel has someone to distract him." You say chuckling. "Yeah... He has always been a recluse and only sticking by Maria, Tommy, or Ellie." Dina says and you listen intently. "Ellie told me about the adventures they have been on and how cold he was to her." You begin to tear up and nod. "Yeah she told me about it to." You sniff and Dina immediately looks in your direction. "Hey... What's wrong?" She asks and you shake your head. "Please tell me (Y/N)..." You sigh and try to catch a breath. "I just feel so lucky... I don't deserve all of this. I don't deserve Joel..." You say as tears begin to fall down your cheeks. "Damn hormones." You murmur. "Why do you think you don't deserve Joel?" She asks and you sigh. "He has been through so much. He had a daughter before all this shit happened and I know he is scared." Dina nods wrapping an arm around you. "He is taking this massive step of taking care of me and a baby that isn't even his. I am so scared that he will back out and I will be alone again..." Dina looks confused. "What do you mean again?" She asks and you lean into her. "Anthony..." "Anthony?" You nod. "He is this babies father. I told you I had a sexual relationship with a man and that is his name." Dina rubs your back as you continue. " I was two months pregnant when he died..." "... And you have been alone ever since." Dina finishes and you nod. "And now I have Joel and he is a dream that I don't want to wake up from and I know I will one day." You say with a sigh. "I'm scared I'm going to wake up and he is going to realize that the baby will be to much to take care of..." "Joel isn't like that." You hear a third voice and look up to see Ellie in the arch way. "He wouldn't do that to you. I hear him talk about you to Tommy all the time." She says and you let out a sad laugh. "I know he won't... It is just a fear I have." Ellie nods and walks closer. "Dina Joel wants you to go to the workshop. He wants you to look at something." Dina nods and stands up. "See you later okay (Y/N)?" She asks and nods. She nods back and walks out the door.
Joel is in the workshop as he finishes sanding the last piece of his recent project when Tommy walks in. "Hey." Tommy says as he walks around a few pieces of wood to get to his brother. "Heya Tommy..." Joel says seemingly in his own world. "What did you want to talk about Joel?" Tommy asks and Joel turns to him with a serious look on his face. "I wanted to ask you somethin'" Joel says gesturing for a stool to sit on and Tommy sits down. "What is it?" Tommy asks. "I was wondering if you could talk to Maria about patrol..." He says and Tommy looks confused and asks. "What about patrol?" "I want to take time off... Maybe retire..." Tommy gets a shit eating grin on his face. "You want to retire huh?" Joel begins to blush and nods. " You are so whipped for this girl ain't ya?" "Oh shut it." Joel grumbles before turning around and Tommy laughs. "You got a ring yet?" Tommy asks. Joel stays quiet which answers Tommy's question. "You REALLY like her." "You said yourself that I was gonna get hitched at some point!" Joel snaps and Tommy laughs. "I'm happy for you brother. I'm sure Maria will be just fine with out you on patrol." Joel puts on a small smile looking at him again. "Thank you." He says and Tommy nods and leaves.
A few minutes later Dina walks in. "Hey Joel!" She says with a smile and He smiles back. "Hey Dina thanks for comin'" He says standing up and moving some things out of the way. "Any time Joel so what's up?" Joel stands up and leans over the work bench and grabs a piece of paper and hands it to her. Dina gasps and smiles. "This will be perfect!" She exclaims. "What color are you going to paint it?" She asks excited. "That is what I am hoping you could help me with." He says taking the paper and putting it back on the table. "Hmmm. Her favorite color is (F/C) maybe a few different shades of that color." Dina says and Joel nods writing it down. "What about staining it? For all we know there might not be much paint. Should we stain some parts?" He asks and she shakes her head. "Honestly with this color wood I think it would be better if you uh... Seal it?" He nods "Yeah that would be for the best I think. The lightness of the wood should be enough... I just hope she likes it." Dina sighs and looks at him. "She'll love it." Joel sighs and nods. "I should get home to her. She's probably getting up to mischief and unpacking boxes." He says as he begins to make his way out the door only to bump into his brother. "Tommy, what the h-" "Don't go outside!" Tommy says. "What?" Joel asks trying to get around him. "What do you mean?" He says finally getting outside. Tommy tries to steer him away from the gate. "Joel do-" "Tommy!" Joel's entire body freezes as he hears a pair of light footsteps behind him. He turns around and their eyes meet. "Claire?" "Joel?"
(Hello I just want to say that this might be the last part for a while. I recently got a job and it has taken up most of my time. I apologize and I hope you understand.)
