Last surviving veteran of First World War dies aged 110 - Telegraph
Inevitable, but sad. Wars always shape the world after them, but the impact of World War I was incredibly far-reaching. From Hemingway to chemical warfare to the Middle East to German reparation, much of the last century was shaped through the outcome of the war. Mrs. Green was the last living connection to that war, and now that era is passed completely.

And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here
Someday burns down
And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away
And I never come back to this town
Again in my life
Reblog for life.

Reblog always and forever
Our friends say it’s darkest before the sun rises
We’re pretty sure they’re all wrong
I hope it stays dark forever
I hope the worst isn’t over
And I hope you blink before I do
Yeah I hope I never get sober
Domestic bliss (orange chocolate cinnamon rolls with Ti)
Oh my morning is going just fine. Yours?
It turns out the big dog is less adorable when he’s sitting in your seat
You can tell me there’s something more adorable than a 175 lb dog loving a small stuffed dog, but I don’t know that I’ll believe you.
What is this?
Why this is my brand new alarm, the Sonic Bomb™, a Sonic Boom™ alarm by Sonic Alert.
It is loud. And it has a hockey puck that goes under my mattress to shake it and make sure I am awake. What it DOESN’T have is a way to keep me from hitting the snooze button repeatedly. That’s where my ingenuity comes in. It is now locked in a box, and that key is in another room locked in a box with a combination lock. My neighbors are going to LOVE me.
- Me: Here's something gross
- Me: remember my pinky toe getting smashed?
- Ti: yes......
- Me: the nail just came off
- Me: but there was a new nail underneath it
- Me: I don't think I've ever lost a toenail before
- Ti: there was a new one under it?
- Me: I was surprised to find one underneath it
- Me: yeah, smaller, but there
- Me: maybe I'm like a shark
Seth Avett singing “Remember the Alamo”
Is this technically a country song? I think an Avett Bro. singing about Texas probably makes it close enough to count.

Scott Avett singing Roger Miller’s “Where Have All the Average People Gone?”
I could probably do this all day.
