Well look at that.
Tumblr doesn’t realize that there are tons of games where you play as colored people, gays, and so on.
Hell, in Skyrim, Fable series, Oblivion, Dragon Age II… So many more.
I mean seriously, you are NOT being overlooked. They just want to appeal to more people and making games about a gay person...

I honestly can’t fathom it. For me music has always been so huge in my life. It is my motivation, my outlet, my way of connecting with God; and to think that some people go their whole lives without hearing it… wow.
What brought this on is that I am taking sign language this semester. It makes me feel so torn. I want to be able to communicate with these people that...

Hey, Tumblr community, meet one of your neighbors…

They come into our country and take over our language. ESL? English is a SECOND language? Hell no. English is the FIRST language of America. If American’s went to Mexico, they would throw a pissy fit if we tried taking over Spanish with English. Why would we let you guys into our free country just so you can fuck...
