how have i never seen this before

This situation in Sudan makes me so so so so so mad and angry because they CUT OFF the Internet so people can’t say what’s happening there and they rely on US to be SAVED because they’re currently living a NIGHTMARE they can’t even go to the streets NORMALLY and they can’t do ANYTHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE THERE IS NO INTERNET. THE SUDANESE PEOPLE RELY ON US. DO SOMETHING.

Here’s how you can help:

They count on us!! If you know any other way we can help, please tell me!!

ultimately i think kindness is the most radical thing you can do with your pain and your anger. it’s like, you take everything awful that’s ever been done to you, and you throw it back in the world’s teeth, and you say no, fuck you, i’m not going to take this.  you say this is unacceptable. you say that shit stops with me.

humans are fucking terrible and this awful world we live in will fucking kill you but if you are kind, if you are brave and clever and try really hard, you can defy it. you can impose on this bleak and monstrous structure something beautiful. even if it’s temporary. even if it doesn’t heal anything inside you that’s been hurt.  

i’m gonna sleep and i’m gonna wake up and i swear by everything in this deadly horrible universe i’m gonna make someone happy. 

i’ve seen a number of comments and tags where people feel that they must swallow or repress their anger in order to engage in kindness. that is not at all what i am recommending here. radical kindness is an expression of anger. it is not passive. it is not repressive. it does not require you, in any way, to forgive those that have fucked you up. it does not require you to be quiet. 

it just requires that you be kind. viciously. vengefully. you fight back. you plant flowers. give to charity. play games. pet someone’s dog. scream into the dark. paint and write and dance, tell jokes, sing songs, bake cookies. you have been hurt and you don’t have to deny that hurt. you just have to recognize it in other people, and take their hand, and say: no more. enough. fuck this. no more. 

have a cookie.

i will say this again: we are all going to die. the universe is enormous and almost entirely empty. to be kind to each other is the most incredible act of defiance against the dark that i can imagine. 

i will say this again: we are all going to die. the universe is enormous and almost entirely empty. to be kind to each other is the most incredible act of defiance against the dark that i can imagine.

1. The universe is indifferent. We ought not be.

2. A good quote: There are two kinds of people. Those who think, “I don’t want anyone to suffer like I did.” And those who think, “I suffered; why shouldn’t they?”

3. Two good quotes by Kurt Vonnegut: “Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you’ve got a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies-“God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.”

And: “Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.”

“Hope is not a lottery ticket you can sit on the sofa and clutch, feeling lucky. It is an axe you break down doors with in an emergency. Hope should shove you out the door, because it will take everything you have to steer the future away from endless war, from the annihilation of the earth’s treasures and the grinding down of the poor and marginal… To hope is to give yourself to the future - and that commitment to the future is what makes the present inhabitable.”

TIL that when asked for his thoughts on the migration of New Zealanders to Australia, the Prime Minister of New Zealand stated that the “annual exodus of Kiwis to Australia raised the average IQ of both countries”.

I could be wrong but what’s interesting to me personally is that Elijah wasnt just mad, he was scared for his life cuz there was a queen who wanted him dead so Elijah ran and told God he wanted to die because he was in such anguish

But God is so good and He always knows what we need!

Notice too that he didn’t even give Elijah some encouraging words to comfort him.  He just told him to eat.  Sometimes just being there and making sure someone gets through their anguish is enough.

AND THUS SPOKE THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE

“Why don’t you have a some food and maybe you’ll feel better.“

And God said, “Have a Snickers.”

And Elijah inquired of the Lord, asking “Why?” and the Lord replied, “Because thou doth lament greatly when thou art hungry”.

Thus Elijah took and he ate of the confection, finding it to be exceedingly satisfying.

The Lord then asked, “Art thou better?”, and Elijah replied, “Indeed Lord, I am better”. Then the Lord further advised Elijah, saying unto him, “Thou art not thineself when thou art hungry”.

“God it’s freezing.” Monty whines and you can’t help but roll your eyes at him.

“Yes, thank you. We’re kind of in the tundra so it should be cold. If you were hot that’d be a bigger problem, when you’re hypothermic you feel hot and that, my friend, is why people who freeze to death are often found in less clothing.”

“Great fun fact. What are we doing here?”

“I found the plane. Or I’m like 99% sure that I did.”

“In the tundra?” Monty asks with a shiver and you can’t help but smirk over at him.

“In the tundra. Maybe a hundred more miles or so.”

“How do you plan on getting us there?”

“Dogs.” You tell him, the snow squeaks under your boots as you make your way further out of town to meet your contact.

“I’m sorry, did you just say dogs?”

“Are you honestly surprised?” You ask over your shoulder, “Hi Mike.”

“Doctor, I’ve got two sleds ready for you, is there anything else you need?”

“Supplies for a week?”

“Everything just like you asked. You sure you don’t want another driver out there with you?”

“We’ll be good, six dog teams?” You ask digging in your bag.

“Yea, the distance you’re going six dog is perfect. You’ve got Bear as your lead. He can be a bit more stubborn but you said you’ve driven before.” You nod and he continues, “The other lead dog is Blanche. She’s a bit smaller but listens well and leads like a dream.”

“Wonderful, thanks so much Mike.” You tell him handing him the salsa you’d used as a bartering chip. “My grandma sends a special hello.” You tell him nodding to the extra peppers in the jars.

“She’s a good woman that Marion. Safe travels Doctor!”

“Thanks Mike.” You tug your hat back over your ears and head out to where the dogs are. The sleds are already packed and ready to go and the dogs are excited to start running.

“Where do we sit?” Monty asks as he tugs his face mask back into place.

“We don’t. We stand in the blades in the back.”

“I thought that was for the drivers.”

“We are the drivers! Gee for left, haw for right, woah for stop and hike for go!” You call over the wind. You step onto the back of the sled, kick up the brake then yell, “Bear! Hike! Hike!” The dogs all leap forward and with a loud whoop you’re off. You glance over your shoulder to see Monty scrambling onto his own sled to follow you and you should laugh but you can’t help it. Poor Monty.

The first day isn’t horrible you’re stiff and cold when the but you make it to the camping spot you’d plotted around 8:30 and while Monty might squawk while he works no one is better than Monty. He gets a fire going and a tent up faster than you can get all the dogs off of the leads and back on a line for sleeping.

“Alright, what for dinner?” Monty asks as you dig in the bag for your food and the dogs food.

“Here, we’ve got beans and rice, just needs to be warmed up a little. I’m going to feed the dogs so we can go to be right after we eat.”

“Sounds good. I’m exhausted.”

“Same.” You agree heading over to feed the dogs before your own food is ready. “Eat up doggies! See you in the morning!” You call heading back to the warmth of the fire where Monty has the beans and rice heated up and waiting for you.

“So do the dogs just sleep out here?”

“Yea, they usually dig a little hole for themselves and sleep in that. Their fur is crazy thick.”

“Cool. So what exactly is the plan here?”

“Well, if my map is correct we should be about halfway. The flight path that he would’ve taken would have brought him north before going south to New York City.”

“So we’re what? Like one day away?”

“Yea, if we push the dogs a little more tomorrow we should get there earlier than we did today. We might have enough time to start actually searching the area.”

“How are we doing that?”

“Metal detectors. They’re on my sled.” You tell him in between bites of dinner.

“Perfect. What-“ Monty is cut off by your satellite phone ringing and you wince at him.

“Sorry,” You pull the phone from the bag at your hip. “Hello?”

“You’re in the Antarctic?” Your dad’s irritated voice fills your ear and you bite your tongue to keep from groaning.

“No, we’re in Canada. Why?” You’re not lying, you are in Canada, just the very very northern most part of Canada.

“Your Grandfather told me you were hunting down the myth of Captain America!”

“Tell Grandpa I say hi and thanks for the dogsled hook up.” You hear your dad angrily repeat this to your Grandpa and grin cheekily over at Monty who rolls his eyes. “Besides dad, Captain America isn’t a myth.”

“You’re just like him! Chasing after anything that sparkles! That lifestyle almost got your Grandmother killed!”

“I’m fine dad. Things are different, and Grandma loved her adventures with Grandpa. I heard that once upon a time you did too.”

“Yes, but then I grew up! Got a real job! A wife! A child! It’s time to stop this nonsense and come home. Live a normal life.”

“Thanks but just because you passed on the Jones legacy doesn’t mean I’m going to. I’ve gotta go dad. It’s late and we’re tired. Love you.” You hang up the phone then and sigh down at it. You’d kind of hoped he wouldn’t find out what you and Monty were up to until it was over.

“He want you to give up this foolish dream and be a normal girl?” Monty asks. He’s heard the speech almost as many times as you have.

“I know he means well but it’s not for me. I like the adventure, the danger, the challenge. Why can’t he understand that?”

“Parents.” Monty says with a shrug and you laugh.

“Alright. We really should get to bed though. We’ve got a big week ahead of us and I want to be out of here early.”

“Alarm set for 0500.” Monty says as you crawl into the tent. He throws some snow on the embers of the fire then follows you into the tent. The only thing you remove is your boots.

“Night Monty.”

“Night Indiana.”

ALL BALL!

I love Koko! And I love that she called her kitten All Ball because it had no tail, like a little ball! 

“On Koko’s birthday, she was allowed to choose a kitten from among several in a litter. She named the gray-and-white kitten “All Ball” as a joke”, Dr.Cohn said. “The cat was a Manx and looked like a ball” [x]

It has been 3 years after one of the most devastating shooting in the history of the United States in a nightclub pulse. 38 innocent lives claimed death at that time in half an hour and another 11 people died in hospital from injuries. They just came to rest, dance, meet new people and find their love. Although these beautiful souls have been taken away from us, memories and love cannot be taken away from. Let’s remember every beautiful soul that we lost that day.

Never forget.

Rest in power.
