A Tumblr with no central theme except to share things that amuse or interest me. I am 24 years old and living in Iowa City, IA with my wife and loving every moment of it. Currently at Kirkwood Community College and will be transferring to University of Iowa soon. Love reading books and comics, writing fiction, collecting old books and books with interesting inscriptions in them, watching all sorts of movies, playing video games (PS3 ID: TessionTG, PC - Steam: Swenny), hockey (Buffalso Sabres and St. Louis Blues fan since Kansas City still has no NHL team… *sigh* Hopefully they will someday). What subjects will you see here: Anime (a lot of One Piece and FLCL lately), manga, comic books, super heroes, video games, rpgs, jrpgs, books, fantasy fiction, science fiction, creative writing, maybe some of my own fiction if I muster up the courage to share, favorite quotes, hockey, Buffalo Sabres, maybe some personal views of mine, art, illustrations (those that I find worth sharing and tend to be fantasy/sci-fi), concept art (for video games, books, comics, etc), things relating to Iowa and/or Iowa City,aaaand some other stuff but that is most of it.Tumblr (3.0; @tgswenson)http://tgswenson.tumblr.com/<p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://naoren.tumblr.com/post/50711883525/okay-but-you-gotta-admit-this-one-looks-pretty" target="_blank">naoren</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Okay but</p> <p><img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/19b47cd9edb252eb5dfd2a1e9e1395bd/tumblr_inline_mmze2shN0c1qz4rgp.png"/></p> <p>You gotta admit this one looks pretty cool</p> <p><img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/7ea2fdf90bea23a2399ce90823590b95/tumblr_inline_mmze3nStgE1qz4rgp.png"/></p> </blockquote>http://tgswenson.tumblr.com/post/51052024300http://tgswenson.tumblr.com/post/51052024300Wed, 22 May 2013 00:31:31 -0500CuboneArcanineCuninePokemon FusionPokefusionPokemonartawesome<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/168b301da6cef5182e0ab8194774d999/tumblr_mn1b9bQUqV1qat9xzo1_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/b4afedc46b273b66404fd4a842ac2196/tumblr_mn1b9bQUqV1qat9xzo2_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/84467a683011aef5180c095a46263ac9/tumblr_mn1b9bQUqV1qat9xzo3_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/f7759a45ba9ca45dc3bb10e9d1d6c95b/tumblr_mn1b9bQUqV1qat9xzo4_250.gif"/><br/> <br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://tangiblesoul.tumblr.com/post/50904926965" target="_blank">tangiblesoul</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://trynabecarefree.tumblr.com/post/50903486342/that-little-girl-at-the-end-is-like-fuck-yes" target="_blank">trynabecarefree</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>That little girl at the end is like fuck yes</p> </blockquote> <p>I’ve been waiting for this gifset lol</p> </blockquote>http://tgswenson.tumblr.com/post/50955186954http://tgswenson.tumblr.com/post/50955186954Mon, 20 May 2013 20:47:07 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7sbxh1gpA1r3dkygo1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7sbxh1gpA1r3dkygo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://mykaylaisnotonfire.tumblr.com/post/34974230565" target="_blank">mykaylaisnotonfire</a>:</p> <blockquote> <blockquote> <p><strong>“<span class="quote">Books are the perfect entertainment: no commercials, no batteries, hours of enjoyment for each dollar spent.
