in World War 1 around 8 million horses died but in World War 2 it was under a million which can only mean horses started to evolve bullet resistance

Maybe if I was still, you’d forgive me

But the only ‘still’ I am is the ‘still-shaking’, ‘still-hurting’ version of myself I’m still trying to hide away

Maybe if I was enough, you’d hold me

But the only enough I have ever been is ‘just unwanted enough’ for all the things I ever loved to leave

Maybe if I could accept change things would be different

Maybe if I allowed myself to still see your love even when the blinkered eyes of my anxious mind cloud the truth and draw in shadows

Then you’d be able to tolerate my dark days a little better

———————————————————————

These are just a few of the things that tiny voice says when I’m all alone in my brain sometimes

Please, my love, believe me when I say that the doubt has nothing to do with you

It has everything to do with the fear filled wasteland my mind becomes

Out of nowhere, caking everything I know with a thick layer of ‘what if’

I know I’m difficult and hard to be around when the fear in my head comes knocking

I’m sorry

I promise I try to keep it at bay

But you are the sun, bright and bold and everlasting and shocking everything in me with bright white light

I have never known a light like you

You carry your strength like a shield on your back and I am in awe of the way you light the world on fire

And I suppose, deep down, I’m afraid that my little dark cloud might one day scare your bright light right out of my life

My love, you are the only thing that makes me feel as though I haven’t failed

You are the best decision I ever made

And I know you feel the same about me

Especially on those good days

Just, please bear with me… I’m still trying to tell my little dark cloud that we have our umbrella, and we are safe now

The best part is the fact that out of the two of them Martha Stewart was the one who went to prison.

Wait…what?

2fngrsin

Wiiiiild. He did commit murder (in self defense - no judging) and America‘s Best Housewife was sent to jail because of insider trading, securities fraud, obstruction of justice and conspiracy. This is wiiiiiild 😄😄😄

also he has every right to make fun of kanye west considering snoop has had a successful career for about two decades including his own cookbook and appearing in movies whereas kanye is a flat earther who had to crowdfund another album because he ran out of money despite kim kardashian being with him, not having the money to produce another album should be the metric when you know you can tell a musician has failed somewhere in either money management or actually being a musician rather then a famous trainwreck

sunshine-tattoo

snoop dogg is a good man who loves cooking, nature, and supporting the dreams of young children in poverty. kanye west helped get trump elected.

brunhiddensmusings

seriously though check out his cookbook its beautiful

and filled with lgiht humor, legit cooking, and charming life stories

nevercure

Whenever I think about snoop I remember that episode of cribs where he lived in an unusually modest house compared to everyone else on that show, spent the entire time with his young daughter hugging onto his leg and dragging her around as he walked. He even talked about how he didn’t want his kids to be musicians and that he just wants them to have a chance at a normal life / he doesn’t wish music career drama on anyone

The dude is mega down to earth for having a networth of 135 million dollars and staying relevant for longer than some of the top charting musicians have been alive

brunhiddensmusings

he says he keeps a supply of poptarts in the house for his nieces/nephews and grandkids but admits theyre really for him and then goes on to discuss what selection of condiments your fridge should have to jazz up leftover takeout hes one of the most thoroughly human humans ive ever known of

owengrose

Doesn’t he also coach football for kids, and stops smoking during the season to set a good example for the kids?

bossymarmalade

all these people going on about how Hozier is the peak representation of musical soft masculinity when Snoop has been out here rocking the smoothest braids and most hype manicures for decades

Have you seen his Planet Earth voiceover video? It’s the best thing I’ve ever heard. Man knows nothing about otters

Plizzanet Earth is a joy. Here’s the playlist:

Why has no one ever told me about Plizzanet Earth oh my god

holykryptonitekitten

Snoop is legit; don’t come for him.

nuggsmum

He also did an episode of Storybots and my kids adore the computer man. Which is wild to me. Cuz I remember gangster rap Snoop. And we love and support Snoop in this house.

Long distance relationships are hardest when your partner is hurting and there’s nothing you can do but wait for them to text you...

#i just want to hold her #is that really too damn much to ask #just snap my fingers and shes here with me #or I’m there #we so deserve to be happy in each other’s arms

The whole medical Industry is a scam, I’m not surprised. This is exactly why there’s so much money in pharmaceuticals in the US!

That’s because it’s not skilled labor, anyone can do those things. In order to make good money, you have to be able to do something that not everyone can do.

ARTISTS aren’t skilled labor? Really.

Make me some art RIGHT NOW. Paint me a portrait in oil-based acrylic.

What? You don’t know that acrylics are water based, not oil based? Gee, that’s something only a skilled painter might know.

Or instead compose me a song. Design packaging for this new product we’re launching in 10 days. Make me a webpage with eye-popping graphics you didn’t steal from another site.

Artists do all that. In fact, every manufactured thing you touch passed through the hands of a skilled artist at some point.

FAST FOOD! If fast food is ‘unskilled’ then why does Wendys, McDonalds (et al) expend time on training employees? Surely if any asshole off the street could do the work they can just slip right in there and start slinging happy meals on day one, right?

Do you know the correct EH/OSHA-approved way to wash your hands? Do it wrong and you are literally violating the law.

Quick: what do the symptoms of Hepatitis-A look like?

Or let’s talk janitorial services. Do YOU think you can clean an entire floor of an office building in the allotted time? Where does the trash go? The recycling? How do you get ahold of the waste removal company when the dumpsters are inexplicably full at 4am? Whom do you call? What’s the account number? Is this even your job to worry about? If the dumpsters are full where do you put a night’s worth of collected trash?

What do you do with hazardous waste you might encounter, if you’re cleaning (say) an industrial workspace? Dispose of it incorrectly and that’s a crime.

What’s the procedure for when you encounter a trespasser in a secure building where supposedly nobody but you is working? Can you identify a fake or expired employee badge? Are you supposed to? Your training probably covered that.

How much would we have to pay you, dear @ithinkthatthismustbetheplace, to deal with a seriously clogged toilet? Shit-smeared walls, standing waste water, the entire place trashed as if it was 3am after a frat party? You have less than an hour to return that restroom to pristine condition. And no, building services is not going to help you.

You don’t think that requires skill?

Or adequate compensation?

All labor is skilled labor

tinabelcherseverythingisokface

^^^

The idea of “skilled” or “unskilled” labor is inherently classist, and misses the fucking point anyway. All labor has dignity, whether you THINK it’s “skilled” or not, and all people deserve to live comfortably, whether they’re able to work or not.

When you peel back the layers of this bullshit argument it becomes obvious that it’s just another way to keep us huddled masses infighting instead of building guillotines.
