By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, journalism keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community.

“What had become of this neighborhood? Once a symbol of all that was special in the world, Beverly Hills was being poisoned by the zombie invasion of the ordinary, the defective, the casual, the fat-over-belt, biscuits-and-gravy-eating, TMZ-worshipping, gum-chewing lower classes. I thought we'd priced them out of this neighborhood decades ago, but it appears that the lives of the privileged are so revered that the hoi polloi will go into hock to rub up against us.
My life was devoted to beauty, yet all I saw around me was ugliness.”

If Cleanliness is next to Godliness, was the Industrial Revolution an invention of the Devil? When did the “unwashed masses” start to wash, and why? If they washed, did they cease to be Hoi Polloi? Herein you'll discover why the “great unwashed” started to wash; how the Industrial Revolution lowered the cost of clothing, so even the poor started to wear more than rags; how medical advances exacerbated an already-growing  population; and how this booming population led to increasing labor strife, a raft of utopian schemes, and outright war.

I'm not sure if I already asked you for something already (and if i did, my bad), But could you do two-bit x fem!reader, you have free reign over what happens in the fic, I just ask it be platonic best friends. Thank you!
Tumblr media
Hi! I’m going to make these into a set of headcanons, I hope you don’t mind that-
So I’m thinking just general best friendship for Two?
That’s kind of what you requested?
And I’m gonna go for it-
So I hope you like this! 🤟
Being besties is going to be a chaotic time, I can promise you that, there’s never going to be a dull moment if you’re hanging around Two
I love the vibe that you’ve been friends since you were young in school, like grade school and you guys just kind of grew up together
You guys probably had to be separated at some point because you wouldn’t stop talking to each other during classes-
They ultimately realize that Two-Bit is going to talk with everyone or just shout at you from across the room so it’s best to just stick the two of you together and leave you be
I’m seeing platonic dates to the drive-ins and diners to cause trouble?
You guys run between the cars, fooling around and catching up with everyone you know there
At the diners, you blow straws at the waitresses and get a few plates of food that you both end up sharing, taking food from each other’s plates
You're probably one of the only people he really trusts with his handy-dandy black switchblade?
Like he'd willingly give it you, you probably don't have to ask very much for him to loan it out to you
He trusts you dude, there's a good trust going between you guys
Oh! Stealing stuff together!
You’ve got hands and you’ve got pockets, assets that Two-Bit is definitely going to take advantage of
He’ll just hand you stuff and give you one of those looks and you better just prepare yourself to run as fast as you can before slipping whatever it is into your pocket
Because of that ^^ you’re probably gonna end up in jail with him a few times
Lucky for you, Darry’s usually got bail money and if you pester him enough, he’ll usually come and bail the two of you out
He always asks you to be his partner on projects, no matter what class it is, he’ll just look at you, eyebrow raised as he waits for a response from you
If you answer with anything other than yes, you’re crazy-
You’ve just gotta be good friends with his girlfriend, Kathy, too, I almost forgot about that part
Y’know the one from the book with the brother who’s really a hood and is so greasy he glides when he walks and gets oil changes instead of haircuts?
That Kathy <3 she’s great and I love her and I bet she’s the kind of girl who has never done anything wrong in her life
You and Kathy regularly have get-togethers where you talk about Two-Bit, conversations spanning good and bad things!
Two-Bit likes to pout because he’s never invited to those nights but he’ll get over it
If he’s gotta babysit his younger sister, you can bet he’s calling you to come to hang out
His sister probably likes you better anyhow, at least, that’s the excuse he’s gonna use to get you to come over
Two’s mom probably likes you too, she kind of looks at you like another one of her kids, you’re over quite a lot
Two-Bit’s definitely the kind of friend to pick you up in the middle of the night and grab food then just sit around having a deep discussion with you
His philosophical conversations in the early hours of the morning are something everyone should experience in their life
Filled with laughs and jokes but also really deep thoughts, it’s a roller coaster of emotions that gonna help you two grow closer as besties <3
All in all, Two-Bit would be a most excellent pal to have, he’d be a great bestie who would do his best to rope you into all his schemes and pay you back in food and fun

happy birthday to Dallas "fuck the police" Winston!
get me a tall glass of dal and tim bickering over how tim is older by 2 days
I changed this a little bit and I hope you don't mind-
“Can you two just shut up?”
The two boys, freshly seventeen, tear their eyes from the dartboard and back to the bar. Sylvia sits on her stool, denim-covered legs crossed at the ankles, running one finger around the rim of her glass. Dark brown eyes are narrowed into slits, lips curled into an annoyed snarl.
Dallas is the first to abandon his spot, casting the dart he was prepared to throw on a table as he passes. Sylvia rolls her eyes as her boyfriend draws nearer, shrugging the hand he lays on her shoulder off. He just buffs, and tries again. “What's the matter, doll, s’it past your bedtime?”
“Put a cork in it,” she glares, “you were sixteen less than a day ago-,” her eyes flicker over as Tim treads across the floor, hands in his pockets and a lazy grin on his face, “-And you were sixteen three days ago!”
“But we’re seventeen now,” Tim counters quickly. Sylvia’s cheeks flush a pale red at his words while Dallas carefully tucks her hair behind her ear. “We better get you home, too,” he drawls on, “a shady bar like this at night? No place for a kid like you.”
Sylvia’s cousin, Buck Merrill, laughs from behind the bar when she’s pulled out of her seat. “Damn good thing we found you,” Dallas jokes, slipping an arm around the girl’s wiast, “two respectable seventeen-year-olds-,”
“Fuck you,” Sylvia hisses.
Dallas laughs. “Hey, missy, dial it back. If you apologize, m’sure we can get you a juice box n’ some animal craxkers before we take you home.”

Once again thinking about the fact that Race uses “hoi polloi” in the complete opposite way from what it actually means
