theres a trump supporter in my media arts major and sometimes my professor will ask him something simple like "whats the difference between ethics and the law" and he'll (i kid you not) say shit like "uhhh its like. honestly i thought that was like the same thing" and then my professor will give the rest of the class a mischievous knowing look

"cigarette" implies the existence of a much larger "cigar"

[patronsaintofmistakenidentity]

i recovered by the time i hit post but when i first had this thought i had genuinely forgotten cigars exist

I’m not Christian, I don’t go to church anymore, and my pastor died, but when he was alive I’d sometimes go to his sermons and I remember one time he said “it feels good to hate, but we know that it isn’t allowed, so when we’re told that we’re allowed to hate someone we get so excited that we forget we’re supposed to love”, and if my humble atheist ass might borrow some church talk I’d like to perhaps submit that

[teaboot]

Anyhow sometimes on the day to day I feel disgust or revulsion and I have to ask myself “is this a danger to anyone at all or am I just looking for something I’m allowed to hate” and a solid 98/100 times it’s the latter so once again thank you pastor D

I don't know who might need to hear this, but I wanted to share something beautiful I had the opportunity to witness.

In the chaos and uncertainty around us, there is still so much love and hope.

A few weeks ago, a local international student nervously approached me and asked if I could photograph his wedding reception. We barely know each other — so much so that the only real thing he knew about me was that a) I was a graphic designer and b) he had seen me hold a camera. And the only thing I knew about him was that he came from overseas to study engineering in the U.S.

He explained that his friend (and expected photographer) couldn't make the trip. I sympathized and told him I had a similar situation with my wedding, but then he said something that made my stomach churn.

Almost all his family and friends overseas can't make it. So can't the bride's, as she's studying abroad as well. With the warmest smile, he says while he wishes his family could be there to celebrate, he's so lucky to have great friends who are helping them put on a small reception.

I told him I had it covered and I wouldn't accept payment. Photos like this will be invaluable over time, and I wanted to pay it forward as the volunteer photographer at my own wedding did.

The wedding was this weekend. I cried during it.

His fellow engineering students became wedding planners. A church opened its doors free of charge. Families of local students caught wind of the event and handled the food, learning cultural dishes from the bride and groom's home countries. A mom group banded together to make table centerpieces. A recently married couple donated their leftover decorations. There were almost one hundred guests. Most of us didn't know each other.

It was the most beautiful wedding I've ever seen. Not just because the bride and groom were so deeply in love with one another, but because strangers saw an opportunity to be kind. In a community where hate of anything 'foreign' seems to fester, a bunch of people saw two lovebirds separated from their families, stepped in, and said, "how can we celebrate love today?"

All I saw was love. Maybe we're not as doomed as we think we are.

please wait while he travels across your dash, he's on a very important mission

Celebrating Ceaser Gets Stabbed day is not to say that the Senators were good guys doing a good things for correct reasons and made the world better

It's just funny that one dickhead got stabbed by 60 dickheads and most of the couldn't even pull their weight in the group project

The guy getting stabbed is a loser and the guys stabbing him were losers

That's the catharsis

Me, tears streaming down my face, sobbing, as I stare at the stars: it’s just so beautiful

The medieval peasant I went back in time to give a bag of Doritos to, concerned: what terrible and powerful sorcerers they must have in your age, to be able to veil the vault of heaven itself from view, as you say

Me, sniffling: I didn’t realize, I can’t, it’s so much, I, I… are the chips good, at least?

Medieval peasant, trying to make me feel better: they’re… magical, strange traveler

Collide With Sky is genuinely one of the best things ever written... banger after banger. it changed my brain chemistry as middle schooler. and it has been an album I revisit often and each time it changes my perspective somehow.

like?

"Slow conversations with a gun mean more than I have ever said to anyone,"

" Last night you said ended up in Palm Springs dancing on tables... almost fought some bitch at the club"

"and I will soon forget the color of your eyes and you'll forget mine"

"Try but the taste of blood remains"

"Cold empty mattresses and falling stars, my how they start to look the same"

"darling it's cold outside"

"Cause this is a wasteland my only retreat... with heaven above you there's hell over me."

"Like sugar water in your mouth look warm."

"I screamed out God you vulture bring her back or take me with her"

"Tear it down break the barricade"

"wake up I know you can hear me"

"The chemicals will bring you home again"

"She's mine you stay away from her it's not her time"

"Dare me to jump off of this jersey bridge? Bet you never had a night like this"

"Please won't you push more for the last time lets scream until there's nothing left"

"enough is enough where done you told me think about it 3well I did:

"So scream until there's nothing left"

"Imagine living like a king someday a single night without a ghost in the wall"

"Hail Mary forgive me"

"Terror begins inside a bloodless vein"

"I knew you well but this ain't a game"

" I bite my finger nails to bone"

" Maybe were just having too much fun maybe you can't handle yourself staring at me with your lips and tongue"

"sorry I can't see that you truly love me"

"maybe where just having too much fun"

"maybe you can't handle yourself staring at me with your lips and tongue

"So darling close your eyes"

"cause your about to miss everything"

" and I don't wanna wait for the down set date cause I would rather end it all tonight

"and if I mean anything to you I'm sorry but I made up my mind"

"Self medicate while they sleep we let the night chase evil things away"

"Come at me with everything you've got"

"burst into flames, scream in the dark"

"I'm gonna light up this place and die beautiful stars tonight"

"when I'm sober I feel pain"

"We run under the star through cemetery backyards"

" jump in the fire if it burns you"

"we'll turn to ashes drown me in the flames

"Sometimes I love the way you swing the blade at everything in sight"

separate me from my own two hands I've killed so many times but i Can't save the world from the creatures that don't die

"I need you here right now I'm crying under water do you don't hear the sound"

"and before i can cry your leaving me just when I thought you were mine"

"failing lights amass one hundred sleepless nights'

"and I might be holding on too tight"

"Do you still love me I am dying to know"

"maybe I'll pretend right now but i swear to god I'm gonna change the world"

"Someday we'll tell ourselves oh my god this is paradise"

"ten year big deal I guess your official I only said it cause I know what it's like to feel burn out"

"and as the sun went down we ended up on the ground I hear the train shake the windows you screamed over the sound"

"This love was out of control 3..2..1.. where did it go"
