the difference between you and me is that I free my time to talk to you while you talk to me in your free time.

Deepest condolences to Astrid Kirchherr’s family and friends.
Devastating. Astrid’s invaluable images and memories will be featured later on this year, and I’ve spent much of the last days translating, not realizing what news was to come. What a photographer, what an artist, what an extraordinary person, and what an indelible influence. Thank you, Astrid, for everything. Vielen herzlichen Dank, Astrid, für die Fotos, den Stil, die künstlerische Leichtigkeit; für die Fürsorge, Liebe und Freundschaft die zwischen Hamburg and Liverpool bestand.

“Astrid was the one, really, who influenced our image more than anybody.” - George Harrison, The Beatles Anthology
“[Stuart Sutcliffe] was my happiness, my life, my lover.” - Astrid Kirchherr, translated from Spiegel, 2/1994
“[George] took care of me all my life. Whenever I was really in trouble I just had to call him. And he was there then.” - Astrid Kirchherr, translated from 1/4NACH5, May 2003
“I had the strongest friendship with George. He was one of my best friends. We saw each other often, and he always looked after me, got in touch constantly to ask if I was healthy and if I have everything. Today […] I still meet up with his wife Olivia and his son Dhani. […] [F]rom George I learned a lot about religion, self-realization and reincarnation.” - Astrid Kirchherr, translated from Hörzu, 2005
“I remember we had a little walk in his park [Friar Park], and I was so full of love and joy to be with him that I cried. He said, ‘You must not cry, I will always look after you.’ He had no fear. No fear whatsoever. I miss his presence, but I’ve got the feeling he’s still around me.” - Astrid Kirchherr, The Age, 2 Jun 2005
“George was always my favorite, his kindness and his wit. He was just a wonderful person and whenever I was in trouble, like with money and things, he was always looking after me and he invited me a couple of times to London and later on to Henley. I just miss him terribly because he was like a little guardian angel for me, I feel like I am in a way lost without him.” - Astrid Kirchherr, Astrid Kirchherr: A Retrospective [see post on Instagram]
She is absolutely essential and must be protected at all costs
Forget about enlightenment...
Sit down wherever you are
And listen to the wind singing in your veins.
Feel the love, the longing, the fear in your bones.
Open your heart to who you are, right now,
Not who you would like to be,
Not the saint you are striving to become,
But the being right here before you, inside you, around you.
All of you is holy.
You are already more and less
Than whatever you can know.
Breathe out,
Touch in,
Let go.

The wolf is so done with the fox’s bs 😂
Foxes are cat software being run on dog hardware. Clearly this fox is operating on the Kitten OS.

How it Probably Happened
Bob the animator: “Ok, so, there’s gonna be a broken piece of a sign that says ‘KL’ on it. Can you draw that?”
Frank the animator: “Yeah, sure, how’s this look?”
Bob the animator: “Well, if it was ACTUALLY a broken piece of a sign that says ‘Klondike,’ it wouldn’t have a big gap after the letters, but whatever. We can fix it in the closeup.”
Frank the animator: “Uh… ok. Shouldn’t I change it in the first shot?”
Bob the animator: “Nah, leave it, but give the new one some wood texture, and make it smaller… oh, and change the lengths of the spikes. The kids won’t notice.”
Frank the animator: “More like this?”
Bob the animator: “Yeah, yeah! And for the final scene, make it REALLY big, and remove the texture, and… heck, make it two spikes instead of three. Two is better.”
Frank the animator: “Alright, it’s done. Are you sure no one will ever notice all these haphazard, illogical changes?”
Bob the animator: “Yeah! I mean, what, do you think someone’s gonna take photos and put them on a blog with 3,500 followers some day? That would be ridiculous.”
and they would’ve gotten away with it too if it weren’t for you meddling tumblr kids
what’s he thinking about? i wish i knew
