I DO NOT KNOW THIS FANDOM BUT NOW I MUST. TEACH ME YOUR NAME THAT I MAY FIND AND LOVE YOU, YOU HAVE A NATURALIST STABBING SHIPS, LET ME PLAY TOO.

Favourite movie ever!  (I have heard there are books, too .. books … hmm)

Oh Stephen, you are wonderful, you are not Bill Wilson but you try, as do we all, there are some pinnacles of perfection that can never be reached by mere mortals, but it’s good to have a goal, don’t you think?

Joss Whedon’s 2013 Wesleyan commencement speech:

So here’s the thing about changing the world. It turns out that’s not even the question, because you don’t have a choice. You are going to change the world because that is actually what the world is.
You do not pass through this life, it passes through you. You experience it, you interpret it, you act, and then it is different. That happens constantly. You are changing the world. You always have been.
And now it becomes real on a level that it hasn’t been before.

The full transcript.

IDEK HOW TO PAINT IT’S FRUSTRATING.  So I drew a bunch of random things.  Like a fake storyboard! And old viking characters— the skinny pretty one is a new valkyrie tasked with bringing back warriors that distinguish themselves on the field— but the warrior that she ends up trying to take to valhalla is a woman and barred from valhalla (so she’s kind of like a zombie and can’t die LOL)
Anyway, fun to draw fake viking outfit vs one that’s at least semi historical.

This is the first time I have seen the Paul Kidby illustrated Discworld novels. There are tons of them here! And they’re $20 for a paperback. #Iceland

Oh, you mean the vastly superior rich and delightful covers? You can get them in Canada, too.  For significantly less.  :)

I watched Tron with Niki and Lindsay tonight
Gosh darn they are the best to watch it with, cutie patoots

Hahahaha, that was exactly how I watched it, I’m sure I annoyed everyone for weeks.  Also I liked how my morning commute was put forth as exemplifying the glorious wonders of the real world.  By ‘like’ of course I mean ‘was made heart-rendingly homesick by.’
