SOMETHINGS THAT I HATE FROM TUMBLR’S PEOPLE

Reblog if you think it’s okay to platonically say “I Love You” to your friends

Izzy Stradlin swallowed his entire drug stash and ended up in a coma for 96 hours.  Axl Rose’s girlfriend wrestled a gun away from him as he was going to shoot himself. Steven Alder attempted suicide three times after he was kicked out of Guns N Roses. Slash contemplated suicide when he realized he couldn’t deal with being in Guns N Roses anymore. Duff Mckagan hid in a closet with a gun to his head after his family tried to stage an intervention about his drinking problem. They have all been through problems with suicide, but look where they all are now! They’re all so happy, especially Steven, watch recent interviews of him and he can’t stop smiling and talking about what a blessing it is for him to be alive. Please believe me when I say it gets better, just look at these five perfect examples and hold on.

curb your enthusiasm, duff

Axl Rose: Abducted and sexually abused by his biological father as a toddler, while his mother constantly allowed it to happen.

Axl Rose: Forced to go to church up to eight times a week and beaten by his step father on a daily basis.

Axl Rose: Watched the rest of his family constantly being abused by his step father.

Axl Rose: Told by his step father that music was satanic and that women were evil.

Axl Rose: Hitchhiked to L.A. at 19 years old to pursue his dreams of joining a band.

Axl Rose: Worked at a variety of places in L.A. to support himself since he struggled to make an impact on the L.A. music scene.

Axl Rose: Relentlessly toured with GN'R to help album sales.

Axl Rose: After two fans were trampled to death at the Monsters of Rock Festival at Castle Donnington in 1988, from then on he addressed disruptive fans in the audience so that no one would get hurt.

Axl Rose: Constantly made an effort to get his friends to become sober.

Axl Rose: Paid off Slash’s bail and was the only one at the hospital after Steven Adler overdosed.

Axl Rose: After multiple failed attempts to get Steven Adler sober, he and the rest of GN'R decided to kick him out with the band’s best interest in mind.

Axl Rose: Referred to by Kurt Loder as “maybe the finest hard rock singer currently on the scene, and certainly the most charismatic.”

Axl Rose: Decided to release the Use Your Illusion albums separately, knowing that some fans wouldn’t have the money to buy it as a double album.

Axl Rose: Use Your Illusion I & II debuted at No. 1 and No. 2 on the US charts, a feat not achieved by any other band.

Axl Rose: Attempted to be a good father figure for Dylan Seymour, his then-girlfriend Stephanie Seymour’s son, since he never had one in his life.

Media: He’s an egotistical douchebag and it was all his fault that Guns N’ Roses broke up!!!

this deserves to be seen! nobody understands axl but the real fans and its so sad! its axl not axhole.

he is too pure for this world and if some idiots can’t see how amazing he is then they’re a lost cause.

I’ve seen a lot of posts on my dash tonight about users who are threatening suicide, with other Tumblr members posting in effort to try to get ahold of them. I think you all should see this:

IF THERE IS EVER A TUMBLR USER WHO HAS POSTED A GOOD-BYE MESSAGE, SUICIDE NOTE, VIDEO, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS POST.

1. Scroll to the top of your dashboard.

2. See the circular question mark icon at the top? It’s the third one over from your home symbol. Click on that, and a screen similar to the one in the picture will come up.

3. Where you can type in questions, the box with the magnifying glass at the top, type in the word “suicide.”

4. Click on the first link that shows up. It should say, “Pass the URL of the blog on to us.”

5. Type in the user’s URL and tell Tumblr admin that the user is contemplating suicide and has posted a message indicating that they are going through with it or will be attempting. Hit send! Tumblr administration will perform a number of actions to contact the user and take the necessary steps to prevent the suicide.

TUMBLR: THIS COULD SAVE A USER’S LIFE. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE SUICIDE THREATS.

Reblog this to keep other users aware. Suicide isn’t a joke, and neither is someone’s life. If you didn’t know this, someone else may not, either. Pass it on.

“Those poor boys”

“She deserves to be punished too.”

“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”

“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”

“She put herself in harm’s way”

“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”

“She ruined their lives.”

y’all the fact this only has 23 notes literally gives me ass pains. one of the few works on this site that has proper grammar and tenses.

Imagine running down an alleyway, a laugh behind you like church bells ringing. You laugh yourself, face to the sky, mouth wide, and emerge onto the street. The neon lights do nothing to stop you. You turn left and keep running, the feet behind you speeding up, a phantom hand brushing your shoulder. You spin at the corner, the crosswalk light flipping from the white man to the red, flashing hand, and Duff slams into you. Together, you spin, like a carefully choreographed dance, but don’t fall. You just hold onto him and he holds onto you. He is blue-eyed exuberance and you are merely a bird who has landed for a moment. You both laugh and breathe hard. Cars honk, swerving around you. But it is the stars above you, that wink and blur, that remind you of where you are: on a single planet, spinning around a single star, and everything you know is made of stardust, was once born within a star that lived and died. And that if you had to choose any star to love tonight, if you had to pick any atom to be mesmerized by for a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a lifetime, you would choose Duff.

He lets go of you, but then snatches your hand, drags you to the other side of the street. And you are running again, racing, his laugh over his shoulder. Yes, you think, he is the star around which your planet orbits, he is the dust the makes up your very being, that pumps through your veins and your heart. You leap and he catches you, your chest to his back, and he slows to a walk. You look to the sky and you understand, then, the pull Earth feels, the gentle spin. He hums, low and sweet, and you cannot wait to kiss him, cannot wait to know if you, too, are his sun.
