while I didn’t make any formal resolutions for 2021, I did think to myself that it would be nice if I could write more this year. this piece fell out of me eight years after moving to California and four months into an extended stay at the house I grew up in, across the country from my “new” life. I’ve been thinking a lot about that schism as I take work calls from the couch I religiously played Mario Kart on as a child, and loop past street corners where I used to catch the school bus before coming home to chat with Bay Area friends that my parents might never meet. figured I’d try to put some of my mess into words. thank you for reading ✌️

Never be cruel, never be cowardly. Never, ever eat pears. Remember- hate is always foolish and love is always wise.
Capaldi’s last words as the doctor are everything, e v e r y t h i n g (via musicalpoppadom)

I don’t go on Tumblr very often, but when I do it is for this man proving himself as the best of humanity year after year against all odds.
Fun fact: that 2012 image was my desktop background for years and I will never forget that smile.

The 4 Dangerous Signs of Passivity in the Face of Trump Tyranny
As the era of Trump approaches, some of you are succumbing to the follow four syndromes: 1. Normalizer Syndrome. You want to believe Trump will be just another president – more conservative and pompous than most, but one who will make rational decisions once in office.
You are under a grave delusion. Trump has a serious personality disorder and will pose a clear and present danger to America and the world.
2. Outrage Numbness Syndrome. You are no longer outraged by what Trump says or what he does – his incessant lies, his dystopian cabinet picks, his bullying, his hatefulness  – because you’ve gone numb. You can’t conceive that someone like this is becoming President of the United States, so you’ve shut down emotionally. Maybe you’ve even stopped reading the news.
You need to get back in touch with your emotions and reengage with what’s happening.  
3. Cynical Syndrome. You’ve become so cynical about the whole system – the Democrats who gave up on the working class and thereby opened the way for Trump, the Republicans who suppressed votes around the country, the media that gave Trump all the free time he wanted, the establishment that rigged the system – that you say the hell with it. Let Trump do his worst. How much worse can it get?
You need to wake up. It can get a lot worse.
4. Helpless Syndrome. You aren’t in denial. You know that nothing about this is normal; you haven’t become numb or stopped reading the news; you haven’t succumbed to cynicism. You desperately want to do something to prevent what’s about to occur.
But you don’t know what to do. You feel utterly powerless and immobilized.
Millions of others feel equally powerless. But taking action – demonstrating, resisting, objecting, demanding, speaking truth, joining with others, making a ruckus, and never ceasing to fight Trump’s pending tyranny – will empower you. And with that power you will not only to minimize the damage that is about to occur, but also get this nation and the world back on the course it must be on.
If you find yourself falling into one or more of these syndromes, that’s understandable. Normalizing, numbing, becoming cynical, and feeling powerless are natural human responses to the peril posed by Trump.
But I urge you to pull yourself out. We need you in the peaceful resistance army, starting January 20.

today my anthro professor said something kind of really beautiful:
"you all have a little bit of ‘I want to save the world’ in you, that’s why you’re here, in college. I want you to know that it’s okay if you only save one person, and it’s okay if that person is you"
