Red is not such an evil color

Some say red is such an angry color, it’s a violent color

The color of blood.

And while some do meet their end in red, we all enter this world cloaked in crimson.

While red can signal death it’s far more often that it signals birth.

End’s and begging's can coincide with neither spoiling or overtaking the whole.

And red is a beautiful color which, like fire, can be used to suggest both destruction and creation.

Nature can be quite the beautifully striking thing

There are things in my head I don’t yet know how to speak

But someday I will

Just as I learned words for gravity and infinity 

I will learn how to tell of these thoughts

[plausiblyren]

I always love seeing this comic because it interprets Tumblr as a gigantic theater ruled by absolute chaos where sometimes somebody just stands up on their chair and shouts and we all pay attention

[adulthoodisokay]

this post is from THIS YEAR

[glowzoul]

had to fact check and holy shit 2020 really has been 3 years long.

[flavoracle]

Happy one year anniversary little thread

[official-lucifers-child]

[pukicho]

What the fuck I coulda sworn I made this 10 years ago

[atalana]

yeah no whoever was dating that wasn’t looking at the right version of the post, the original’s from october 2017

[pukicho]

You telling me someone gaslit me on my own post?

[absconditus--praenomen]

The tumblr essence vibes are still carrying through though, admittedly

[absconditus--praenomen]

Small moments truly can possess a beauty of their own

In a sliver of time, no more than 30 minutes or so, as the evening’s end draws ever near Three friends laugh in familiar revelry

For the moment, the practical world can be set aside in the margins while they inhabit one all of their own

[raptorific]

funniest thing would be if when Queen Elizabeth dies or steps down and Charles is all ready to assume the throne, here comes King Arthur, Excalibur in hand, sauntering back from Avalon like “oof what a nap! thanks for keeping the chair warm I’m back to be king again”

[raptorific]

like, given that “King Arthur isn’t actually dead, he’ll be back to be King again someday” is, like, an actual aspect of the legend and a thing that a lot of people purport to believe, has anyone ever actually tried it? showing up to buckingham palace claiming to be Arthur Pendragon, The Once And Future King, and assume the throne? does the british government have a protocol for checking whether someone claiming to be King Arthur actually is? does parliament have a secret picture of the Real Excalibur kept under lock and key, only viewed if someone claims to be King Arthur, that they can use to confirm or refute the identity of alleged Kings Arthur? if not, how do they deter every jackass with a sward from pretending to be him? does filing a false King Arthur report constitute treason?

[lunetta-suzie-jewel]

The rules are simple. “Arthur” has to show up with a sword. They give the sword to the Lady of the Lake, and if she throws it back to the claimant, he’s legit and gets to be king again.

[pargolettasworld]

So the test for King Arthur’s identity falls to the even less officially identifiable Lady of the Lake.  No one can even agree on which Lady, or which lake, is the official one, much less how to tell if you’ve got The Lady of The Lake.  All of which suggests that all you need to accomplish this is one (1) sword, a willing female acquaintance, and a nearby body of water. 

There isn’t even any requirement for “Arthur” to catch the sword, so the Lady can just javelin an epee right at him.

[lunetta-suzie-jewel]

Well when you look at it that way, one might conclude that strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.

[the-littlest-peanut]

[absconditus--praenomen]

In all fairness though, we haven’t tested it

Perhaps it’d be a fine basis for a system of government

I think we should try it

how the hell do i talk to people

[citrus-hills-blog]

Stand in front of them and press A

[oimatchstickman]

[oimatchstickman]

listen this pops up as getting notes every so often and i just wanna know how in the heck you people find this post

[absconditus--praenomen]

We pressed some buttons!

(and frankly, I’m quite happy to have found this post, it’s delightful :) )

I want a book about space explorers except there are no monsters hiding behind asteroids and there are no aliens, there is no war and there are no heroes. There are just small, fragile humans catapulting off into the unknown because they are so utterly in love with space and the things they find there. 

Give me soft space explorers who love each other and are lifetime companions because now that they’re out there, they’re never turning back. Give me space explorers excitedly rambling on video file as they talk about their newest discovery in order to send the information back home. 

Give me space explorers who sometimes get a little homesick for what they left behind but then remember all that they’ve found and decide the most important home is one they already have. 

Give me space explorers who know each other intimately and are some mix of lovers and friends, because labels are meaningless when it’s only you, your companions, and the expanse of planets and stars around you. 

Give me space explorers who use materials they have and find materials on other planets in order to make a pathway for anyone else who wants to go that direction. Give me space explores who figure out how to land on planets with a lower gravitational pull than Earth so that they can collect samples and learn more. 

Give me space explorers who are nothing more than brilliantly, beautifully, unerringly human just doing what humans do best: discovering 

[absconditus--praenomen]

Well said, friend

[valtsv]

if i ever try to pretend i have a sense of humor please remind me that i just thought of the concept of a phoenix named boomerang "because he always comes back" and started laughing so hard i almost threw up

[absconditus--praenomen]

This is the sort of thing that’d make me laugh until I was half-heartedly concerned about having an asthma attack 

{Like, that anecdote and all}

[absconditus--praenomen]

Look Up

What do you see?

Ceiling, sky, or otherwise?

Have you seen what secret lies just beyond your eyes

Have you caught sight of it? It, the thing, which In people’s peripheral vision, it finds preservation 

A silent passerby  over which, even time will fly

Searching

While I may not know where it is,

I know there is a fine line between independence  and self isolation,

And I know I’m searching for the side where      I can take the hands of others

While standing strong, and proud  by the power of my own will!

[absconditus--praenomen]

Just because you can do something on your own, doesn’t mean you should have to do it alone
