The Blank Page: Making a Mess →
the-write-idea:
by Christin Taylor
Let’s begin with what’s terrifying about the blank page: it holds all of our ideas and none of our ideas at the same time. When we look at that beautiful white expanse, we see possibilities. We imagine a work of art.
Yet when we sit down to write, our hands turn to cement and the words come out ugly and lethargic and lazy and we are mortified. So we put down...

Ted: What is Robin's dream job?
Barney: To become the most successful female TV journalist of all time.
Ted: Correct! And if she achieves that, would she truly be happy?
Barney: No! Robin's deep-seeded need for attention can be traced back to her father's emotional distance, and no amount of success will ever make up for what she truly needs which is six simple words from her dad: Robin, I'm proud of you, ey?

new tumblr url, still deciding on a theme....

At first it was wandernut, inspired by the travel term Wanderlust.
I don’t think I’ve reached that vagabond level YET. Heck, I haven’t even started. Trips not planned at least a month before, only to be informed I must go there in a few days, actually terrify me.

Jealousy is a dangerous thing. It consumes us the way hyped up Apple marketing grabs the status seeking/hipster/fanatical populace. We wish we were that person or had his/her possessions/status/wealth, losing sight of being content—of happiness within our reach. Life then becomes an endless struggle to make more money, to achieve an unnecessary impression of status. Perspective of who we are...

It’s not clear how or exactly when Barney will come face-to-face with his estranged dad, but it’s safe to say said reunion will be… wait for it… epic.

3/4 into Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
Ishiguro has the ability to convey details in a manner that doesn’t hit you until you’ve spent a good two hours straight reading his work. The words he uses alone aren’t the most sensual or powerful at first, but weaved together as whole, and with the often mysterious characters he includes, you’re left hanging on to every word. The events aren’t heart stopping or...

Gandhi on homosexuality.

cakeanddiamonds:bossmama:lethalmutations:
Two gay Englishmen came to Gandhi in the 1930s and asked him what he thought of their relationship.
The Mahatma asked some questions and for a short time fell silent.
