Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I don’t care that I have maths finals on friday
and that we have extra lessons today
it’s 30 degrees outside
and I have noone to give me a ride
and like hell I’m gonna take the bike because hell no
I’ll catch pneumonia and die
I’ll stay at home then instead
yeah
sounds like a plan

YOU GUYS NEARLY 11,000 OF YOU PUT UP WITH ME ON A DAILY BASIS. You guys listen to more of my crap than my own boyfriend generally does. That deserves rewarding. So this is an extra SPECIAL tea give away, and there will be THREE winners. Oh my god. Want a chance to become one of those lucky three people? Read on and follow directions.
THE PRIZES:
- First Place Prize: A set of all seven Sherlock Shipper tea blends [Sherlock/Moriarty, Sherlock/Irene, Moriarty/Moran, Mycroft/Lestrade, Lestrade/John, Lestrade/Molly, Molly/Moriarty]
- Second Place Prize: A set of all four* Avengers Teas [Thor, Loki, Steve Rogers, and Coulson *and possibly also Tony Stark if I make a tea for him soon]
- Third Place Prize: A set of all three Doctor Who Teas [The TARDIS, Amy Pond, and Rory]
- IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE PRIZE PACKS: Each winner will get ONE blend specially created for them. It can be a character or ship or show or book or whatever that I haven’t done that they’d like me to do. It can even be a blend made based on THEM. Whatever the winners would like. They each get to request one, and they will receive it with their other teas.
I MIGHT ADD TO THESE PRIZES. If this gets reblogged like, a lot, or something, I might lose my head and also send the winners mugs to go with their tea. Or a book. WE’LL SEE.
THE RULES:
- Anyone ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD can enter EXCEPT AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND!! I am SUPER sorry for my followers down under because not only do you have to put up with terrifying wild life, you can’t even allow tea to be imported to help comfort you. Sorry, there’s like, crazy laws and stuff.
- You do not have to be following me to win, but it might be helpful to keep track of updates or changes (if any). Plus I plan to make some blends for other fandoms in the future, so if tea is your thing, it might not be a bad idea?
- Only two reblogs a day allowed.I did not realize how often people would reblog my last big give away soooo I’m going to enforce this LOL. You can reblog on as many days as you’d like, but yeah, only 2 reblogs a day please. I’ll be checking.
- LIKES DON’T COUNT. Sorry! You have to reblog!
- The give away will end and I will choose the winners on FRIDAY JUNE 1ST. I’ll probably do the drawing late at night on that day, so I’m going to say I’ll stop counting reblogs at 10 p.m. EST. Winners may not be announced until the next day or so, just to be aware!
- Here’s how the winners will be selected: Just like all of my other give aways, I’ll compile a spreadsheet or numbered list of all of the reblogs, and I’ll use the number generator on random.org to chose a number and find the corresponding username on the list. The first number I draw will win the first place prize (or, if they are more into Avengers or Doctor Who, they may chose one of the other prizes). Second number I draw will win the second place prize (or a choice between whatever two packs remain), and the third number drawn will receive the last prize!
This drink. I like it.

My last Glee post for tonight.
Dear Glee,
Please, for the love of teenagers all over the world, present and future, please stop forwarding the idea that high school is the be all and end all of life. Please stop having your characters recite the same ridiculous bullshit that I was spoon-fed in high school. That who you are before you’re even eighteen is who you will always be. That the things you do there will follow you around for the rest of your life.
It’s probably the single most harmful and frequent message that kids hear at that age. It is also patently and utterly false.
Having these beautiful, talented kids say over and over again that they are losers if they don’t win a national competition is harmful for anyone who might be an outcast in their own high school but doesn’t have something like ND where they are. Smart, talented kids with good friends, supportive significant others, loving families, still claiming that they will forever be losers because someone in their high school thinks that they are…
I can’t tell you how ridiculous and hurtful to kids that message is. They hear it every damned day at school. They hear ridiculous things about permanent records and formative years, and the kids who aren’t popular and haven’t found themselves have it drilled in to their heads that they will never be popular and will never be anything because they aren’t right there and then.
Seriously. Stop it. Teenagers kill themselves every day because for each ‘it gets better’ message they hear, they’ve got ten more voices in their head telling them that these are the best years of their lives and they will follow them forever.
You’re a show about outcasts. Except you’re not. You’re a show about amazing kids who have ten times more going for them than the average outcast in real life. You’re a show about kids who have everything but who claim to be losers because there’s still a guy in the halls of their high school who calls them losers.
And that message is going to end up hurting the kinds of kids that you want to represent. Because if fucking Rachel Berry, with her adoring and handsome boyfriend, her devoted, supportive fathers, her crowd of friends, and her immense talent, is a loser…then what is a kid without those things supposed to think of themselves? If she isn’t a winner until the popular kids in school cheer her and ask her to sign yearbooks, what the hell kind of message is that for the actual outcasts walking the halls of their own schools?
Just. It’s too late this season, I know. You’ve spent the entire year having those kids swear up and down that their lives are not worth living if they don’t get the starring role/the place in their first and only choice of schools/the national championship of a choir competition. You’ve made the point and not had a single person give any indication otherwise. It’s too late to save this year. But you have a fourth season and another chance.
Please use it. Please.
Love,
A real former singing high school outcast
