“Indeed in nothing is the power of the Dark Lord more clearly shown than in the estrangement that divides all those who still oppose him.”

dictionaryofobscuresorrows:

n. the state or condition of unnoticed excellence—the hidden talents of friends and coworkers, the fleeting solos of subway buskers, the slapdash eloquence of anonymous users, the unseen portfolios of aspiring artists—which would be renowned as masterpieces if only they’d been appraised by the cartel of popular taste, who assume that brilliance is a rare and precious commodity, accidentally overlooking buried jewels that may not be flawless but are still somehow perfect.

I Have Made Mistakes | The Oh Hellos

It is the rain that will strengthen, the rain that will strengthen your soul. It will make you whole.

The forecast is calling for a rainy weekend May Long Weekend (as always), but this song makes rain seem oh so pleasant.

If you aren’t already in love with The Oh Hellos, you should probably get on that. Pick up their album for free on Noisetrade.

adamyoungofficial:

I dream you, and you come to me
intact, in focus, indiscreet, mouthing
the sweetest lies as if we cared.

As if, in fact, we might begin again
with needle-tracks and scratches down your arms
that might have told in drunken hieroglyphs

how heavy-shouldered I pick my way
through a night of empty forecourts,
back to the etceteras of passion:

the obligatory pathos of discarded shoes,
the glass of water juddering by the bed,
the face my heavenly eyes avoid.

The journey to proper adulthood: things I need to do before I turn 21

Give blood
Take a Greyhound Bus
Do “Breakfast in Banff”
Get another piercing
Write a short story
Go on a Sev-Run (drive into Winnipeg just for a slurpee)
Learn to knit or crochet
See the Northern Lights
Drive across the CAN/US border (as in be the driver)
Buy fireworks
Get a tattoo
Get a pedicure
Learn to use a sewing machine
Watch Braveheart
Learn to pump gas

I hate the interrobang

zen-child:

I honestly think that crying over a book is one of the most prominent sign of compassion for humanity. You’re crying over someone who isn’t really there, doesn’t really exist, but you still feel for them as if you have known them your entire life.
