attempt at life

hi i'm kieran. here is my tumblr

You spend the first year of your kid’s childhood teaching them to walk and talk and the rest of their childhood telling them to shut up and sit down. That’s not how childhood should be.

98 year old dobri dobrev, a man who lost his hearing in the second world war, walks 10 kilometers from his village in his homemade clothes and leather shoes to the city of sofia, where he spends the day begging for money.

though a well recognized fixture around several of the city’s chruches, known for his prostrations of thanks to all donors, it was only recently discovered that he has donated every penny he has collected — over 40,000 euros — towards the restoration of decaying bulgarian monasteries and churches and the utility bills of orphanages, living entirely off his monthly state pension of 80 euros and the kindness of others.

Wow.

This is actually how I said it probably happened.

Angelina Jolie had a double mastectomy, in case you hadn’t heard. How dare she remove those ticking time bombs from her chest, amiright? Like, hasn’t she learned by now that her body is public domain and we all get to vote on what she does with it? Sheesh, how selfish can ya get.

whatiloveaboutbeingqueer: I love being queer, perhaps even more than I love being gay or same gender loving, though in specific social contexts, I reclaim gay and self identify as same gender loving. Queer fits. It fits because it encapsulates the dynamism of my sexuality without imposing restrictions on my gender expression. Queer makes room for my femme ness and dis ability embodiment in a way that gay and same gender loving doesn’t. For me, queer means radiant darkness, radical love, and a million and one ways to resist and decolonize. Queer is imbued with deep spirituality and sweetness. -Edward Ndopu, Ottawa

My set of illustrations for 7 Patch Problem, which I will have with me at Fanime (and all my other conventions!). They will also be available as prints. <3

I love these so much ;w;

Important note: Fayren goes to more conventions than me! So if you want this book but aren’t in California you should keep an eye on her convention list here!
