Favourite thing about winter?

The cold dark days

The stillness and quiet of everything

Grey, cold and rainy days being more common

Snow

Cold weather

Less people outside

It gets dark outside quickly

Everything is so pretty

Mulitple of these

Something else?

On September 16, 1920, a bomb went off on Wall Street, killing 38 people and one horse, and injuring hundreds, 143 of them seriously. To this day, the culprit has not been found. For more on the bombing, see this post.

Birthdays are the bitch that breaks the news to my past selves. It's a measurement that stretches along my life, showing all that I've reached for compared to what I hold now. Time has never been gracious to me. Time doesn't slow down the clock, never gives me a chance to catch up to everyone else. It's survival of the fittest between me and time, and I don't fit anywhere enough to get the momentum. So, who will tell her? The 18 year old girl sitting on the bench but staring at a fork in the road, praying I made the right choice. The 24 year old in my car and on cloud 9 because I think he actually wants me this time. And who's going to tell her? I'm 28, writing a poem about growing up, but really wanting to grow within, to prepare as much as I can for the good love I know is breathing somewhere. And do I exist, 10 years from now on a day like today, shaking my head, breaking the news, still asking, oh honey, who's going to tell her?

Mistigram: on this date in 1810, the Mexican War of Independence from Spain began with the Cry of Dolores. (Spoiler warning: #Mexico won!) AdeptApril celebrates the occasion with this #ANSIart adaptation of the Mexican flag, featuring a centre device retelling the founding myth for the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan.

Is anyone else feeling this weird kinda dichotomy in life rn where you're like wow the shit is really hitting the fan in every way all over the world and like wow we're really gonna see a second great depression and possibly civil war and ww3 and the planet on fire and then an ice age maybe and every day is something else piled on or we're on higher alert for nuclear meltdowns or bombs and you find yourself googling where the hell the nearest fallout shelter is if there even is one and then Taylor goes and does something like drop a new album or reveal that the special edition, only available for like a day vinyls make a clock if you were in the 1% that got to get them and you're kinda like okay Taylor I know you gotta do your thing but also like we're out here having to decide between groceries and gas every week and it might not even be a choice soon bc the supply line is not even gonna get the groceries to us but go off like hey yeah we totally can just get all these awesome things and we totally have the time for this......... but then, you're, you're like... but you know what okay but actually we kinda needed the distraction right now so thank you Taylor?!?
