Kurt Vonnegut tells his wife he’s going out to buy an envelope:

“Oh, she says, well, you’re not a poor man. You know, why don’t you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I’m going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope.

I meet a lot of people. And see some great looking babies. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And I’ll ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don’t know. The moral of the story is - we’re here on Earth to fart around.

And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And what the computer people don’t realize, or they don’t care, is we’re dancing animals. You know, we love to move around. And it’s like we’re not supposed to dance at all anymore.“

Let’s all get up and move around a bit right now… or at least dance.

when hayao miyazaki said that true love was two people inspiring each other to live…recognizing just how hard living is, putting one foot in front of the other every day, how easy it is to lose our passion for it…… that’s the real shit

clementineoil:

spent too long thinking I’m ugly … so much brain space… like when mitski said “your body doesn’t exist to be looked at. it exists to DO, go places, let you exist! imo I don’t wanna waste all my time preserving it for viewing”

lnniter:

playing minecraft single player survival like “this is the loneliest i have ever felt in my entire life. not sure if i should go on. holy shit a flower forest”

“C'mon Olympians it’s bedtime, time to go to your anti fuck beds!”

Between this and the decision not to offer condoms, it’s fascinating to see how the American Christian Right has managed to convince the world to ignore statistics and believe that you can actually get people to be abstinent by withholding supplies.

Hopefully no one throws out their back or cracks their head open in the shower.

Lol like the most physically gifted people in the world dont know how to have sex against a wall.

mayhap they will even discover a radical new solution called “putting the mattress on the floor and fucking with condoms they bought themselves”

I still don’t know what I’m wearing to the living room New Years Eve… I might not even go.

[ tweet by @jenlynnbarnes reads : One time, I was at a Q&A with Nora Roberts, and someone asked her how to balance writing and kids, and she said that the key to juggling is to know that some of the balls you have in the air are made of plastic & some are made of glass.

And if you drop a plastic ball, it bounces, no harm done. If you drop a glass ball, it shatters, so you have to know which balls are glass and which are plastic and prioritize catching the glass ones. 

Nora was not talking about juggling five balls. She was talking about juggling FIFTY-FIVE balls. The balls don’t represent “family” or “work.” There are separate balls for everything that goes into each of those categories. “Deadline on Project Y” or “crazy sock day at school”

And her point, addressing a room full of women, was not “prioritize kids over work.” It was “some kid stuff is glass and some is plastic, and sometimes, to catch a glass work ball, you have to drop a plastic family one, and that is okay.” 

I think about this ALL THE TIME. I dropped more than one ball today. It is hard to drop any ball, and I hate it! But they were plastic, and tomorrow, it will be okay.  :end ]
