ladyoflunacy:
I am drugged by delusion, and sobered by a soul-summoning silence
constantly tripping on a combination of downers and constellations
watching creations quietly crawl away from my cerebral prison
they like to envision a life uninhibited by the barricades of bones.

Politini
I’ve featured the wedding pictures of couple Danielle and Aisha Moodie-MIlls on this tumblr before. They are so much more than pretty faces though, so now I want to put a spotlight on their podcast Politini. It’s “Politics and Pop Culture served up with a twist— A twist of wit, a splash of style, and opinions straight up. From Hollywood to Poliwood (the new Washington), Danielle...

Something about how I have been called “white” because I am a writer. Something about how I have been called “white” because of what I write about, because I write about race in weird ways and because I will also not write about race at all. There is a photo of me attached to my stories. This does not matter. Black people do not write about their lives. Other people write about...

Oh. And the director of this episode (752) is gay to.
If only the world could be like Shondaland.

"The good outnumber you, and we always will."
americanhumanist:
Patton Oswalt really says it all here.
Boston. Fucking horrible. I remember, when 9/11 went down, my reaction was, “Well, I’ve had it with humanity.” But I was wrong. I don’t know what’s going to be revealed to be behind all of this mayhem. One human insect or a poisonous mass of broken sociopaths. But here’s what I DO know. If it’s one person or a HUNDRED people, that...
