I just want to thank Hillary Clinton for standing up for women, children, and families; I just want to thank her for fighting so hard to be what this country needs right now.
I just want to acknowledge Hillary for being the first woman to accept a presidential nomination, the first woman to vote for herself for president, and the first woman to win electoral votes in the U.S.
I just want to thank her because I woke up this morning thinking that I would have a female president and that’s not something I’ve ever had the chance to think before. Thank you for giving me that hope, for making me believe that it could happen, and for showing me that it CAN happen, and that someday, hopefully very, very soon, this country will be ready for it.
at what point in history do you think americans stopped having british accents
Actually, Americans still have the original British accent. We kept it over time and Britain didn’t. What we currently coin as a British accent developed in England during the 19th century among the upper class as a symbol of status. Historians often claim that Shakespeare sounds better in an American accent.
whAT THE FUCK
I’m too tired for this
Always add in the video that according to linguists, Native southern drawl is a slowed down British.
T’ be or not t’be, y’all.
Fun fact: Same thing happened with the French accent. French Canadians still have the original French accent from the 15th century.

I’ve been trying to find this post for months. I’m freakishly obsessed with this and want the truth of what early colonists sounded like.
"Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind."
