ok so this is something everyone on tumblr should know
imagine dragons was hired to write demo tracks for spiderman turn off the dark (aka the spiderman musical on broadway) in order to get people to invest in it and have enough money to hire someone more famous to write the musical
then the people who hired them thought, “hey, these are actually good songs we should make a cd of them and sell it”
so imagine dragons changed the words a little so they weren’t about spiderman and became famous
radioactive was originally about THE RADIOACTIVE SPIDER THAT BIT SPIDERMAN
you know I read this and thought “bullshit there’s no way that’s true” but apparently it is
so the thing about my family is that we have two ancestors on my dad’s side who were buried in france, where I currently live. one died in the spanish civil war, and one died prior doing…we don’t know what. but he somehow managed to get buried in père lachaise.
so anyhow, my gran sends me a message like “pls put flowers on ur uncle samuel’s grave because he’s gone over a century with none and it will make the ghost mad if he hasn’t already” because my family spends time in europe but never long enough to go all the way to père lachaise and give ya boy samuel jr. his death rites. so im like “ok gran I can do that” bc im a good grandson and you do not fuck with gran she doesn’t DESERVE THAT
i figure out which plot he’s on and ask someone specifically where you can find uncle samuel jr. and they tell me where and so I arrive at the junction and.
HE GONE.
WHERE DID YOU GO UNCLE SAMUEL.
*celine dion’s smash hit “my heart will go on” playing in the distance*
in other words either someone stole my entire great great uncle samuel or he has risen again, ready to party in paris for all of eternity.
You’re pretty chill about a corpse disappearing.
My guy, my dude, he’s been dead since 1851. He could be anywhere. He does what he wants.
He got tired of waiting around for his flowers. Man went out to pick them himself.
15+ minimum wage is a great start, but let’s not forget that to afford a modest, one-bedroom apartment anywhere in America the average person has to make 22$ an hour. I would also suggest some sort of cap on rent prices, I know that isn’t a popular one, but rent is out of control.
We have landlords out where I live charging 1,300$ with nothing included for apartments that are not luxury units, all on top of rejecting your application if you have bad credit, or a pet over 15pounds. It’s getting harder for low-income people to find places to live.
I’m talking one-bedroom apartments going over 1,000$ a month in low-income areas. Raising the minimum wage doesn’t help if the landlords can just raise their rent prices, so yeah, I’m for some kind of cap on rental units in certain areas.
15+ AND you can’t raise the rent on your tenants just because they make a little more money now because that’s bullllsshiiitt.
