Official hiatusy thing of hiatus.

Likely I won’t be back on tumblr itself for a week at least. If not more.

Next three days are in chicago and we’re hitting :Science and Industry, Shed Aquarium and the Field Museum. In that order a day a piece :3. Then spending as much time as I can with kiddo before his solo flight. :/ So yeah. SEE YAH <33333

IF I MISS SOMETHING. I WONT KNOW IT. D: … uh. Email me! or ask on tumblr. I’ll find it when I get back!

Also sorry to the two peeps I promised necklaces to! I meant to get them out sooner than this, but I won’t be able to until after next week :/. Guys, I’m sorry. Behind in everything forever.

Take all the care and don’t burn anything down!~

Paige Bradley created one of the most striking sculptures I’ve seen in recent times. Her masterpiece, entitled Expansion, is a beautiful woman seeking inner piece but fractured and bleeding with light.

“From the moment we are born, the world tends to have a container already built for us to fit inside: a social security number, a gender, a race, a profession,” says Bradley. “I ponder if we are more defined by the container we are in than what we are inside. Would we recognize ourselves if we could expand beyond our bodies?”

Whoa

Reddittor jennyleighb posted video and these photos of her roomate’s 55 gallon aquarium that’s been customized with a LEGO Super Mario Bros. level.  Here’s a link to more photos showing the progession of the build.

Shot in my jaw. Awesome.

that means i was shot/stabbed in the ass. lovely. 

…my ass?

…The inside of my thigh?

Holy shit, I have one on my knee. I TOOK AN ARROW TO THE KNEE YOU GUYS.

I was probably some sort of real warrior. Till I also took an arrow to the knee. The right one, in case you were worried.

Maybe we all fought in the same war??? Mine hit me in the hip tho. And the arm.

Died by shrapnel.

There are no words for this. You wonder why we’re angry; why we won’t stand for your bullshit. Look at this. LOOK AT THIS. A white woman attacking a Rroma mother AND HER BABY. I’m literally crying right now, here in my chair, in the office at work. It’s something I’ve dealt with in my life more than once and something I fear every day. I don’t even “look” particularly Rroma now. I just don’t know how you can sit there, in your privilege and comfort and deny this happens. LOOK. Vo!  Gaadži dukhavel pe do čhajorjake dake!!!

[Photo Source: Anthony Cronin/Flickr] Details:”I was walking down Moore Street Dublin on a Sunday when I was passed by a family of Romany Gypsies and then I heard behind me a bunch of Irish teenage girls shouting abuse at them and thinking they were very funny. They then picked up old fruit from the stalls and were throwing this at the Romany Gypsies, this escalated as the Gypsies responded verbally. Then further as one teenage girl found old stallholders chair and ran after the Gypsies hitting the woman pictured from behind. The woman tries to protect her baby wrapped in her arm in blankets”

Would it be insulting or out of line to tag this ‘Gypsy’ specifically because the white kids who use that term and track that tag DESPERATELY NEED TO SEE THIS?
