So you know when kids are playing, and one of the spoiled ones doesn’t like what’s going down, so she shouts, “I’m not going to play anymore!” then stomps off? And she thinks everyone’s going to care very deeply, because she is a special snowflake? But actually no one gives a shit?

Kim looks like a space queen. I seriously love this dress so much. >.<

So this song has particular relevance for her, I suppose.

Me, every time I see Janelle Monae:

When she said her method would make you less likely to buy stuff I was SO SKEPTICAL because I adore shopping (at the Salvation Army, so I’m even more likely to bring home weird shit). But it was true! I went shopping the other day and found nothing worth buying! My brain was all, “Eh. You have everything you need at…

He’s still learning the ins and outs.

The glasses are giving me megane moe so bad. I’m going to imagine he got that bruise battling a shady Spanish cabal for an ancient relic, in between teaching Latin poetry at a pastoral Ivy League.

I will be wearing this when (WHEN, NOT IF) I walk down the red carpet, after I become a famous rock star.

Who the hell doesn’t know to try turning it of and on again? I’m as tech-savvy as a bowl of dirt, and even I know that.
