amber. 23. massachusetts.

i've been living with chronic major depression for almost 14 years, and i post pretty openly about it, just giving you fair warning.

writer. esl teacher. amateur pastry chef. jewelry maker. artist. marxist. girl-dandy. cinema addict. philologist. in love. just trying to keep my head up.

i'm generally a nice person and i try to be as positive as i can. the only thing i'm really intolerant of is intolerance.

i basically survive off of ativan, espresso, bourbon, and green tea, and i think eating and sleeping are highly overrated.

i enjoy eyeliner moustaches, baking cookies shaped like ninjas, oscar wilde-esque dandyism, jewfros, watching turner classic movies while heavily intoxicated, socialism, linguistics, jack nicholson's facial expressions, dressing up in ridiculous costumes for no reason whatsoever, boston, and road-tripping.

i just do what i do and enjoy the ride i'm on.

Little Wars

bestofwikipedia:

Little Wars is a set of rules for playing with toy soldiers, written by H. G. Wells in 1913. Its full title is Little Wars: a game for boys from twelve years of age to one hundred and fifty and for that more intelligent sort of girl who likes boys’ games and books. Little Wars is considered by some to be the first modern table top war game. It included fairly simple rules for infantry, cavalry, and artillery in the form of a toy 4.7 inch naval gun that launched projectiles, usually small wooden dowels to knock down enemy soldiers. In addition to it being a war game, the book hints at several philosophical aspects of war. (via yeslikethemotorcycle )

“And for that more intelligent sort of girl who likes boy’s games and books”. 

Ohhh, Bertie, you adorable little misogynist, you.
