But the sparrow ruffles his feathers

and says,

'Change'

In a small room, big enough for a man statue - I used to whip myself and venerate boys like you

#excerpt from a book i'll never write

(…) I will no longer connive / At my own destruction / (…) I will connive no more / With that which hopes and plans that I shall not survive.

Edna St. Vincent Millay, from Collected Poems; “Jesus to His Disciples,” (via violentwavesofemotion)

the fact that this was written two years ago and it’s still relevant… what does that tell you?

I’ve been saying this for years but guys

Sandy Hook.

Sandy Hook was the Nightmare Scenario. It was the “that’s not realistic.” If I’d been arguing with someone who was anti gun control and I said “someone could take a gun and go into a school and kill thirty kindergartners in just a couple of minutes, how would you feel then,” they would have said I was exaggerating, that’s manipulative and unrealistic.

but that’s what happened.

and the thing is

if thirty dead, white, upper middle-class kindergartners in Connecticut aren’t going to motivate change on gun control

then they’re never going to change for queer people in Florida, and they’re not going to change for music fans in sin city, and they’re not going to change for college students in Washington and Oregon, and they’re not going to change and they’re not going to change.

A white man can buy 19 automatic weapons and no one is going to raise an eyebrow. And then afterwards they’ll send thoughts and prayers.

Pyre (2017, developed by Supergiant Games) x The Scorpio Races (2011, by Maggie Stiefvater) - The Liberation Races

If they survive in the Downside long enough, the exiled men and women grow horns and hooves, transforming into demons. Only the victor of a Liberation race may regain their freedom, atop a ferocious man-eating beast that emerges from the Sea of Solis.

So I decided to combine my favorite game of 2017 and my favorite book! Both Pyre and The Scorpio Races have fantastic writing and world building. I highly recommend experiencing both! You can buy Pyre on Steam or the PS4 store for only $20, and The Scorpio Races is available on Amazon for $8!
