Carousel Photoshoot Sessions!

There was such a great response to our photos with the antique carousel that we’ve worked with the venue to schedule some times for me to do formal photoshoot sessions there- WITH THE CAROUSEL! Normally photography isn’t allowed at this venue and certainly not on the rides, but we managed to get permission and I’d love to shoot with you there!!!! ♥ Carousel Shoot Package: $250 Cad (tax included)…

This IS BEYOND unacceptable -FU to Doug Ford and ANY politician/public figure in the Ontario Legislature who agrees with this. A keffiyeh is a traditional scarf worn by many Arab people, and people in West Asian communities. It does represent/symbolize Palestinian resistance and solidarity (among many aspects, of course), but that's not a crime -and trying to censure someone's right to wear traditional garments because you'd rather pander to zionists (as this article notes, many wear religious wear every day in office), is the real issue here -this is discrimination. This is legislated discrimination and is hateful.

My next novel is The Bezzle, a high-tech ice-cold revenge thriller starring Marty Hench, a two-fisted forensic accountant, as he takes on the sleaziest scams of the first two decades of the 2000s, from hamburger-themed Ponzis to the unbelievably sleazy and evil prison-tech industry:

I hope that Mitch Marner knows no matter what the Toronto media says or a bunch of angry fucks on twitter say, there is a whole community of hockey lovers that absolutely adore the fuck out of him. We just want you to know you're doing amazing sweetie!! Don't listen to the general media because there are so many people who think you're an amazing player and deserve the world!!

#this is a mitch marner fan account always #Mitchy forever has my heart #I don't care what anyone says I will love this man forever #as much as I love him on the leafs I hate that he has to deal with the Toronto media #Toronto hockey culture is the worst honestly #mitch marner #toronto maple leafs #stanley cup playoffs #nhl #hockey #fuck the Toronto hockey media #I've literally had this drafted since the playoffs started #posting now bc of certain events...

WTAF. I spoke about this a few times before. People in many parts of West Asia/many Arab people have been wearing keffiyehs for CENTURIES. They represent many things, and yes -they do symbolize Palestinian resistance and solidarity -and if you have an issue with anyone wearing a keffiyeh in any space you're a genocidal apologist.

This is BEYOND ignorant and IS discrimination. I hope we see a class-action lawsuit that sues the provincial government for doing this/normalizing this because it's ILLEGAL. These politicians (especially the PC's -who were shouting no to overturn it and one of them saying they felt UNSAFE... the audacity) are just racist bigots.

i can't get over how asinine the commentary for this is. they keep being weirdly critical of guys? get a life. have some fun. stop trying to make me believe that winning a million bucks would be really that meaningful to these millionaires

Funniest historical events bracket

Details under the cut:

2016 clowns: Oh man, what a year. Just like, evil clowns were seen in different places, sometimes they attacked people as well. Apparently this started as a promotion for a film, but then unrelated evil clowns showed up. ?????

Circus Riot: Circus clowns and fire-fighters get into a fight at a brothel (clowns win). The next day fire-fighters want revenge ig and start a riot. Then the cops arrived and did fuck all (they are cops). Also they wanted clown Meyers to be handed over. idk what he did to them but it sure upset them, I think they could use a handkerchief and a handkerchief and a handkerchief and a-

fob @ fanfest recap, post-my living vicariously through people's live updates since i cannot get over my last minute resentful decision of not being able to pull off the (admittedly 650+ total mile) drive 2 philly today and perhaps feeling devastated over having missed

- patrick: "so! i'm patrick and i know nothing about sports" and also just MASSIVELY feeling the show based on all the videos i've seen!?

- pete making a warped comparison (!?! could it get more wavernot4love coded than this)

- joe chant that he successfully heard :]

- i don't care debut of late (finally!!)

- pete being self aware about the tennis new york incident (calling fobbies "monsters" in a vaguely affectionate way... HELP)

- honestly such an expansive setlist for an event like this?? FIFTEEN SONGS!? sixteen candles? fake out? grand theft autumn? headfirst slide? HELLO

- pete doing his saturday thing??? i honestly didn't think that was a thing they did @ these sports event kinda things w shorter sets

- you could really tell they Knew they had hardcore fans there

and man i wish i could have made it but here's to hoping leg 2 comes next year because i will 100% be traveling for multiple shows again <333

#this is quite possibly the biggest “i should have been there” moment wavernot4love has ever had #because i was ALMOST there #to be fair my decision to not do it was based on the fact that my car is not very new #and i have already gone on so many trips this year (most recently JUST driving 2 philly for tourdust camden) #+ still have a couple more coming uo this fall #but regardless i feel like i missed out and i miss them Bad #if only it had been a couple hours closer 2 me or i had been able to find affordable doable public transit #have unfortunately been having a perpetual it's joever moment all day in my room rotting with the shades shut #but it will all be alright in a couple weeks when i see thursday and i'm finally back into the swing of things w my handful of shows #i've got planned for september #also all of them are in my general area except one in toronto and even that is only a three hour drive so that's optimistic #fobposting #fall out boy #fob #patrick stump #pete wentz #joe trohman #i feel like i should be tagging andy but also i didn't see/hear about any particular events specific 2 him
