Assholes always prosper.

But then,  you probably already know that.

Current obsessions:
Africa
fake bands/real t shirts
honesty
baked squash
going out too much
being invisible
make do with what you have/take what you can get/pay no mind to us/we’re just a minor threat

jesus fucking christ, don’t you hate it when you talk in your sleep and someone records it, and you find it only after a well-meaning friend emails it to you? yeah, i hate that too.

I’ve been feeling very earth-bound but finding this was the highlight of my day(please click the link, watch, and let it highlight yours also)

Current obsessions: horchata, reading in the grass, silver martin rabbits, giant sea kelp and my new career as a sea otter.

Current obsession: Lewis Hine, an early American photojournalist best known for documenting American labor, in particular, for exposing child labor and helping to end it.

Happy Earth Day.

Finding these was like one day opening the mailbox to find forwarded postcards from someone else’s trek through my dreams.

Current obsession, addendum to yesterday: Camille Seaman.

The clock is winding down on the exam, class, but I’m not noticing right now because I’m astounded to see photographic evidence of the exact colors and landscape that I didn’t think existed anywhere outside my head.  Use this time to your advantage.

Current obsessions: Subsidence as applied to daily life, dreams of being lost, so many times, (i) tried not to wonder:

Public Square, Cleveland and Edward Burtynsky’s Quarries.

Collapse vs excavation.

What we call our destiny is truly our character and that character can be altered.  The knowledge that we are responsible for our actions and attitudes does not need to be discouraging, because it also means that we are free to change this destiny.  One is not in bondage to the past, which has shaped our feelings, to race, inheritance, background.  All this can be altered if we have the courage to examine how it formed us. We can alter the chemistry provided we have the courage to dissect the elements.
