The Art of the Awkward Pause

I'm Erika, with a K. Early 20's, trying to figure out what the hell I'm doing."Read books. Care about things. Get excited. Try not to be too down on yourself. Enjoy the ever present game of knowing."

21 Grammys. @jayz: I think excellence is being able to perform at a higher level over and over again. Having success for a year or two, that’s “being hot” that’s being in demand for a short span of time. Excellence is being able to perform at a high level for a long period of time. In a genre of music, where it’s almost microwave and your career is almost like in dog years. If you last through a decade and beyond [in hip-hop], it’s almost unheard of. In my genre of music I believe that I’ve achieved excellence.

20 Grammys. @beyonce: I’m competitive really with myself. Everytime I start an album I go and watch all of my performances and I try to figure out, what is it that I could’ve done better or what worked. I try to better myself, I’m really tough on me, more so than anyone else. I’m not a competitive person that walks in thinking about other people and how I can compete with them, especially not my husband, not at all.

Combined Total: 41 Grammys.

Okay no. This shit is so fucking satisfying. I can not tell you the joy it brings me when an underage kid tries to buy GTA and when I tell them they need a parent, they go get said parent, and then I say “hey, this game is rated M for these reasons” AND THE PARENTS GET SO APPALLED AND SAY “NO WAY YOU ARE NOT GETTING THAT GAME.” And the look of hatred the kids give me is so raw and pure it gives me fucking life. Damn I miss GameStop.

These three beautiful souls were taken tonight in result of a hate crime. Razan (raisin-inthesun ) , Yusor Abu-Salha and Deah Barakat. In the community they were well known and loved. Wallah they were all so incredibly sweet. Make sincere du3aa for them and their loved ones and for the community as a whole. إِنَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعونَ Remember that life is short and we should take every second and put it to use. They will always be in my heart and nothing but sincere du3aa should be made now. Allah yerhamhom you will be missed. :(

Gia - Only A Girl

”Only a girl knows how a girl feels..”

Girl on girl angst empowerment over post-Lorde production, largely inspired by (I would assume) t.A.T.u. The gay subtext is very blatant, but I’m not sure if it’s a genuine expression of gay pride and love or some form of reverse Katy Perryian queerbaiting. I want to lean towards the former, because it just seems so earnest and frankly amazing.

I think the sign of a true soulmate isn’t someone you just want to do the super cool stuff with. A real soulmate is the person who makes any ordinary day fun. Some people make all these huge plans to do with their special someone, fuck that. Find someone who you can take grocery shopping and still have a blast with. Find someone who makes you look forward to waking up on Monday.

You have to un-mute this.  You just don’t understand.

"I named you because you hadn’t the voice to name yourself. Now that you have found your voice it’s for you to tell the world what your name is."

I went to a Transgender Day of Remembrance conference tonight, and the transgender speaker, Channyn Lynn Parker, said that her mother said this to her in response to her transition.

I find it so beautiful.
