Throwback: Because I was traveling solo and hiking solo I spent my time making silly videos to make me laugh. However, nothing is as funny as me thinking I was alone, then being interrupted and immediately embarrassed. If I was Caucasian, I would have turned red. I checked the path too beforehand. They must have been moving fast. #Solotraveling #solo #bloopers #whoops #embarassing #whatiswrongwithme #livingmybestlife #traveling #travels #unitedstates #redwoodsnationalpark #redwoods #awkward #lotr #funny #humor #justgowithit #awkwardlaugh #weirdlaugh #why #hiking #solohiking #prouddork #dork #funnyvideo #tbt #throwbackthursday #throwback

“YOU ARE NOT A LOSER”

Lately, I’ve had to tell myself that more than usual and by “more than usual,” I mean an exorbitant amount of times daily over the span of a few weeks. 

Sometimes the phone doesn’t ring. Sometimes the texts don’t come. Sometimes a whole weekend passes without a single invite. Sometimes a close friend comes into town for someone else and doesn’t try to meet up with you. Sometimes you reach out to random friends who all seem to be busy. Sometimes your close friends don’t reach out to you for whatever reason. Sometimes your friends say they are gonna hang out and then change plans when something better comes along. Sometimes you play phone tag for weeks. Sometimes your social anxiety gets the best of you. Sometimes you watch 3 movies in a week at the theater by yourself. Sometimes you eat every meal for over a week by yourself. Sometimes the ex you are still friends with starts dating someone else and doesn’t have the time for you. Sometimes it feels like the whole world has forgotten about you and sometimes all those coincidences above happen at once. And because of that all those sometimes start feel like all the time. 

I know I have friends. I know I have people that love me. And I know I could have reached out to more people. I know my comedy schedule has taken up my nights. I know I have a great life. I know people get busy. I get busy. I know I could easily get back on the dating apps or send enough “wyd” texts at 1am that someone will eventually respond. I know all these things. I am not angry. I am not blaming. 

Even with all that, it’s crazy how quickly I am transported back to feeling like the 15 year old version of myself, who felt like a perpetual loser, after a few weeks of those “sometimes” above. It’s like the years I have spent building all that I have get erased in a moment, and I am back to that teenage kid sitting alone in his room wondering when there would be any contact from the outside world which never came. So much so, that my mom would pretend she wanted to see new movies she had never heard of and ask me to take her just so I wouldn’t spend another Saturday alone feeling sorry for myself because I had no one to go to the movies with. (I am sure that previous sentence is a run on or needs commas for all those clauses. Don’t care.) 

I am saying these things not to get sympathy. I do not want people reaching out feeling guilty or offering to hang with me. I am saying these things because it’s how I feel. I am saying these things because I know so many out there feel the same way. This message is for them, the self proclaimed “losers” like me. I have 45k followers on Instagram. I have been on Netflix. I perform comedy to hundreds of people a week. I’m not bragging. I am saying, that despite of all these things, I still feel like a loser sometimes… a lot of times. I still sit at home with no one to hang out with on a lot of weekends. And that’s ok. No one is immune. Not even a dude like me with all those things. So, if you are feeling like a loser out there… it’s ok. You are in a very elite club. It’s filled with a ton of good people. Just remember, you aren’t alone. Sometimes (lots of times), I feel like a loser too. It’s ok. I am rambling now, but you get my point. 

Most of all just remember….

YOU ARE NOT A LOSER. No matter what your insecurities tell you, always remember YOU ARE NOT A LOSER. I believe that about 50% of the time which is a vast improvement. I am working on improving it more.

I feel like a lot of people don’t want to ask questions they have about gender/sexuality to LGBT people because they don’t want to offend them because we talk about cishet people asking stupid or intrusive questions a lot

But actually when you’re questioning it’s really helpful to be able to ask some ‘stupid’ questions although you’re too afraid to

So can y'all LGBTQIA+ people reblog this if you’re totally fine with people asking questions about your gender/sexuality, as long as they do so respectfully

The 2nd Amendment is no longer the right to bear arms.  The 2nd Amendment has become the right to take lives. The 2nd Amendment is no longer aiding citizens.  The 2nd Amendment is now abetting murderers.

When the laws don’t work, the laws must change. 

[nomadactual-deactivated20171012]

Well, clearly you failed 9th grade Social Studies.

[thelegendofclarke]

You know… I honestly don’t remember how did in 9th grade Social Studies?

I did okay majoring in Political Science and American Government in undergrad though. I graduated summa cum laude so I figure I must have learned something?

Law school also went alright I guess? I did somehow manage to get an article about the constitutionality and modification of excessive force laws through out the 50 states placed in a national publication. And I also managed to pass the Bar Exam. 

But yeah it’s totally possible I failed 9th grade social studies tbh. I was a little shit when I was 15 and gave no fucks.
