stay hungry, stay foolish

❤ April Jones, 5, abducted
Last seen on the evening of 1st October, on a bicycle near her home in Machynlleth, Wales. She was then seen getting into a grey or light-coloured van. The first photo shows what she was wearing at the time, along with a purple padded coat.

» Please reblog so we can get April’s picture circulated on Tumblr.

» If you have any information, please call the dedicated hotline: 0300 2000 333

They said the van might be a land rover, too. 

With abductions it’s not unusual to travel over to mainland Europe to escape the police in the UK, so this isn’t just for people in Britain.  If you live in France, Germany, Belgium, Spain, The Netherlands or anywhere else in mainland Europe, please keep a look out for this little girl!

fuckyeah-nerdery: Saw this picture on imgur and just had to post it here, because this is without a doubt, one of the most badass women alive. Meet Katrina Hodge, a corporal in the British Army and Miss England 2009. According to Wikipedia, she enlisted back in 2004 after her brother challenged her to and earned the nickname “Combat Barbie” after showing up at her assigned unit wearing false eyelashes, kitten heels (whatever those are) and carry a pink suitcase. In 2005 her unit, the Royal Anglian Regiment, was deployed to Iraq, where she saved the lives of her comrades from a prisoner by wrestling not one, but two rifles from him and then knocking his ass out with her bare hands. With her bare hands. Then in 2009, she decided to compete in the Miss England competition to destroy stereotypes about women in the military. She didn’t win (she placed runner-up), but still became Miss England after the woman who did got into a fight and gave up the crown. While Miss England, Hodge convinced the people running the competition to ditch the bikini contest, because she felt that it was more important to be a role model than looking good in a bikini. In 2010, she handed over the crown and returned to military service, being deployed to Afghanistan. This woman is both a BAMF and a HBIC. Damn.

That moment when you finish a book, look around, and realize that everyone is just carrying on with their lives as though you didn’t just experience emotional trauma at the hands of a paperback.
