sometimes you’re so depressed and there’s only one person who can get you through it and his name is john mulaney
it’s been four years since horse_ebooks said it but I think “everything happens so much” is still the most relevant quote I’ve ever heard
–Seamus Heaney
The Big Sick (2017)
I haven’t shot photos in a while. As a reporter, I’ve been focused on words, exhausting myself with work for the past year. I’ve been itching to photograph, yearning to be out in the field with my camera, capturing the scenes and stories that I know are under represented in Ohio.
The county fair is always a time when the truest representation of a place comes alive. It shows the best and worst of our society. While there’s always entertainment and rides, there’s also animal shows and competitions, carnival foods and more.
I went to the fair with the intention of getting one photo, that of the Ferris wheel blur. I’ve been practicing my slow shutter skills, working on composition and relying less on post-editing and more on upfront in-camera work.
In October, I’ll be heading back to the Mountain Workshops in Kentucky. Having gone two years ago now, I’ve been trapped in the world of reporting with words, having no time or energy to shoot after work or on days off. (Adulting is hard, right?) I’m looking forward to being challenged again, pushed out of my comfort zone and continuing on my photojournalism journey.

my secret talent is getting tired without doing anything
The reason most millennials don’t make a scene when an establishment doesn’t treat them right is because we function more on positive reinforcement than negative reinforcement. For Boomers, they can make a scene because they know negative reinforcement gets them what they want; they want to PUNISH these establishments or workers, but Millennial purchasing patterns are very different.
Growing up in the computer age, we’ve become masterful at filtering junk information, and that includes advertising. It doesn’t matter how much a politician or restaurant or whatever memes, we’ll find them funny, but we’re still not going to shop there or give them our money of we dislike them. The way brands become successful with Millennials is actually just word of mouth.
So when an establishment treats us poorly, we don’t make a scene. We simply never go back and don’t tell our friends about it. Conversely, places that treat us well we immediately go tell others about.
The simplest ways to get Millennials to support your business is to give them good economic value for what you sell (Boomers can think we’re irresponsible, but we’re actually quite thrifty), you have to treat us with dignity, but ALSO, you have to treat your WORKERS with dignity. Unlike Boomers who get off on laughing at someone working at McDonald’s, we’ve all had to work shitty, underpaying jobs and we don’t like when we go to an establishment and see workers mistreated and poorly paid, because WE’VE BEEN THERE, and we don’t want to contribute to that gross abuse of the working class.
These rich CEOs can complain that Millennials have “no brand loyalty” or that we’re “killing XYZ industry,” but the truth is that selling to us consistently requires ethical business practices that most of these companies are unwilling to partake in.
Wow I have a degree in economics and studied this stuff for years and years and read up on it all the time and this still impressed me. This was such an enjoyable read and all TRUE. Fuck

the look of wistfulness on her face just punches me straight in the heart
this is literally my favorite piece that ever comes up on tumblr and if you want me to change my mind well then goOD LUCK WITH THAT
if guardian angels rly do exist mine is off somewhere drinking vodka straight from the bottle and pretending i don’t exist
not to harp on this point but the care with which a girl you’ve known for maybe three weeks will ask you “what’s wrong?” if you look even mildly distressed is more emotional labor than you’d receive from any man over the course of six lunar cycles
if my dad sees me crying, he pretends he’s getting a call so that we don’t have to have an awkward conversation, but a drunk girl who stumbled across me in a public bathroom would literally become my emotional triage nurse
