bad news is that my train was canceled, but on the other hand I just learned that the Trump Baby Blimp will very likely allowed to be flown over London when the Orange One himself visits and the overwhelming glee I feel at these news cancels out any of my frustrations with public transport
I got no damn clue what the trump baby blimp is but I’m gonna trust you on this one
OH BOY LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE TRUMP BABY BLIMP
behold:
some excerpts from a BBC article about this wonderful thing:
“Plans to fly a giant inflatable figure depicting Donald Trump as a baby over London during the US president’s visit have been approved.
Mr Trump is due to meet Theresa May at 10 Downing Street on 13 July.
Campaigners raised almost £18,000 for the helium-filled six-metre high figure, which they said reflects Mr Trump’s character as an ‘angry baby with a fragile ego and tiny hands’.”
[…]
“Leo Murray, who is behind the crowdfunded idea, said: ’[Mr Trump] really seems to hate it when people make fun of him.
‘So when he visits the UK on Friday, we want to make sure he knows that all of Britain is looking down on him and laughing at him.
‘That’s why a group of us have chipped in and raised enough money to have a six-metre high blimp made by a professional inflatables company, to be flown in the skies over Parliament Square during Trump’s visit.‘”
[…]
“Max Wakefield, who is one of the people working on the project, said the group is ‘confident it will obtain all necessary permits’.
He said the initial crowdfunding target was just £1,000, but this was reached within 24 hours.
The extra cash will now be used to send the balloon on a ‘world tour’ and ‘haunt’ Mr Trump wherever he goes, he added.”
look at this thing. I fucking love the whole concept
I jumped ship from Tumblr and this is where I landed. I'm a philosophy postdoc (INTJ, she/her) with a serious thing for Tom Hiddleston as Loki. Sometimes I even write fanfiction about it. Mostly Loki and Thor/Loki (sometimes NSFW), some miscellaneous Hiddles, MCU (Steve/Tony or "Superhusbands" is my secondary ship), occasional Cherik, Game of Thrones, LOTR, Whedonverse... whatever catches my fancy, really.
