Do you have any idea how fucking pissed off I was about this?! Merida is what, 13? And they SEXUALIZED her. They have her curves and a bigger bust and of course her hair goes from wild to “slightly wild sexy curls”. Thank you Disney. If you wanted to change a Disney princess maybe you could’ve made Jasmine more middle-eastern and give her some clothes that reflect her status as a princess

I’m listening to all sorts of songs up in this. Feat. Dad Punchers, Aussitôt Mort, Beastwars, Angel Du$t and Power Trip. A quick listen and a horrible stream of consciousness. I’m feeling like plugging stuff. LISTEN/READ HERE.

[Film] Google and the World Brain (Dir. Ben Lewis)

”[…] Along with this access to useless information knowledge is a word so synonymous with the whole of it all that even your grandma is familiar with it (despite probably typing the word into the search bar. Oh, Grandma!) That name/verb/entity is of course Google and there are a lot of folks with a lot of things to say about the Google Empire. What Ben Lewis is saying in Google and the World Brain, is clear: Google is attempting to monopolize knowledge via their Google Books scanning project.” Read the full review, watch a trailer, look at stills HERE.

Cause everywhere I go my head is just a wreck,
And it’s no secret I’ve been dealing with it,
But all I know is that I want to go.

To the end of the line, but it’s obviously time,
To stop this empty train and let somebody in.

A hundred thousand nights,
Always moving to finally feel alright,
But so unsure if it will endure.

To the end of the line, but it’s obviously time,
To stop this empty train and let somebody in.

‘Cause even here tonight,
Where I’m so wound up inside,
I know that it’s time,
It’s time.

That is what happens. You put it away for a little while, and now and again you look in the closet for something else and you remember, and you think, soon. Then it becomes something that is just there, in the closet, and other things get crowded in front of it and on top of it and finally you don’t think about it at all. The thing that was your bright treasure. You don’t think about it. A loss you could not contemplate at one time, and now it becomes something you can barely remember. That is what happens.

Alice Munro “Chance” (from Runaway p. 83)

Juliet knew that, to many people, she might seem to be odd and solitary—and so, in a way, she was. But she had also had the experience, for much of her life, of feeling surrounded by people who wanted to drain away her attention and her time and her soul. And usually, she let them. Be available, be friendly (especially if you are not popular)—that was what you learned in a small town and also in a girls’ dormitory. Be accommodating to anybody who wants to suck you dry, even if they know nothing about who you are.

Alice Munro, “Chance” (from Runaway p. 56)

I tried my best to not post this but perfection won and I’m it’s humble servant.
