Thoughts and Theories of the Daft Devotchka

Greetings and Salutations, Humanoid. Welcome to my little blog, fueled by the procrastination, inspiration, and boredom of a cynical angst ridden adolescent. Check out my photography blog- http://intenistywithtranquility.tumblr.com/ "You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension - a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into- The Twilight Zone!" “There is no truth. There is only perception.” -Gustave Flaubert "Disbelief in magic can force a poor soul into believing in government and business." — Tom Robbins "How happy is the blameless vestal's lot! The world forgetting, by the world forgot. Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind! Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd" - Alexander Pope “I don't do drugs, I am drugs" - Salvador Dalí "Not all those who wander are lost." - J.R.R. Tolkien "How strange it is to be anything at all." - Jeff Mangum IRL Creative Products of My Mind

Beautiful and mesmerizing installation from New York-based artist Zilvinas Kempinas. The 80 foot long walkway, entitled “Tube”, was created using stretched strips of VHS tape.

The worn marble steps at the Leaning Tower of Pisa. This is the result of 500 years of walking.

I’m so sick of young women saying that they’re virgins because they “respect themselves”

your virginity is not a “gift”

your virginity is not even a thing

it’s totally cool to care about your sexual debut, but please do not use the purity myth to devalue other women

Looks like all of those raucous protests are paying off. After many criticized #BlackLivesMatter protesters for preventing Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders from speaking at a rally in Seattle, the Vermont Senator released a sweeping racial justice plan. Now, he’s agreed to meet with activists to talk about it.

When Michael Brown was gunned down by a police officer in Ferguson, DeRay Mckesson became one of the most notable faces of the movement for justice. Alongside Johnetta Elzie, Mckesson live-tweeted protests, broadcasted video, and offered a perspective the mainstream media couldn’t. Now, he’s got the ear of a popular presidential candidate.

While many continue to question the tactics of some protesters, it’s hard to deny their message is being heard.
