Paper chaser. I drink craft beer and Instagram it. Probably somewhere trying to perfect my shoe selfie. Also #TomHardy, hi.

“Nobody comes to a Chris Cornell show to hear him play guitar. It’s really all about his voice, a glorious instrument that howls and roars and yet somehow exudes a rare vulnerability.

Before the mythic American melting pot, there is the first generation.

This podcast explores the inner workings of the mythic American melting pot; what happens when your parents come from two different countries, cultures, or races. It’s the kindergarten-level foreign language you can speak to your aunts, the taste for “foreign” flavors you’ve known since childhood, and the distinct feeling of otherness projected onto your face because you look just a little bit “different.”

Starting May 1, this five-part miniseries will introduce you to stories of mixed race Americans who are grappling with questions about who they are, and what it means to be an American today.

Host Alex Laughlin will share her own stories and interview multiracial people about what it means to be mixed in America today.

Listen here!

The appearance of things changes according to the emotions; and thus we see magic and beauty in them, while the magic and beauty are really in ourselves.

The person you marry is the person you fight with. The house you buy is the house you repair. The dream job you take is the job you stress over. Everything comes with an inherent sacrifice -whatever makes us feel good will also inevitably make us feel bad. What we gain is also what we lose. What creates our positive experiences will define our negative experiences.

Mark Manson, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck  (via saint-clarity)

NOT over this.

[psych-facts]

No matter how careful you are, there’s going to be the sense you missed something, the collapsed feeling under your skin that you didn’t experience it all. There’s that fallen heart feeling that you rushed right through the moments where you should’ve been paying attention. Well, get used to that feeling. That’s how your whole life will feel some day.

Chuck Palahniuk, Invisible Monsters
