"Loneliness is the human condition. Cultivate it. The way it tunnels into you allows your soul room to grow. Never expect to outgrow loneliness. Never hope to find people who will understand you, someone to fill that space. And intelligent, sensitive person is the exception, the very great exception. If you expect to find people who will understand you, you will grow murderous with disappointment. The best you’ll ever do is to understand yourself, know what it is that you want, and not let the cattle stand in your way."

Forty-ton whale lands on yacht during Cape Town sailing trip

“The pair were enjoying calm seas off the South African coast when the animal flipped into the air and smashed into their mast.

Ralph Mothes, 59, and Paloma Werner, 50, were helpless as the beast thrashed around on their 33ft vessel before slipping back into the water.”

Cape Town, South Africa

In my head this whale is yelling, “ohai wutz up in here u guyz?!?”

Q: I heard you are Lady Gaga's biggest fan. Confirm/deny?

A:
I am actually Lady Gaga’s biggest fan. If by “fan” you mean “proponent of the rumor that she is in fact a man”.

A hypothetical situation.

Let’s say some guy in a Tahoe plows through a crowd of harmless elementary school children, causing the worst car-on-child accident in the history of the United States. At the very least, you’d take away his drivers license, right?

Let’s say some oil company’s gross negligence causes a rig to explode and spew hundreds of thousands of gallons of oil into the Gulf of Mexico for nearly a month, killing a countless number of harmless birds/turtles/fish/dolphins and putting thousands of fishermen out of work. At the very least, you’d take away their ability to drill offshore, right?

Kanye West
“Power”

I think that in some way Kanye understands that he needs to keep engineering these enormous public fuck-ups in order to keep putting himself back in the underdog position where he thrives artistically. This song is incredible. He sounds hungry, eager to prove himself. I think he’s done it again.

I listened to the new Kanye this morning and wasn’t that into it, but I just gave it a second listen and I respect it a little more. I don’t know, maybe it will grow on me.

Worth a reblog at least.

If the Tumblr audio player had a loop function I would be in trouble.

So here’s this like WHOA crazy idea.

If you’re complaining about the LOST finale, you have to realize this: the show was never about the plot or the island or how polar bears got on a tropical island or time travel and if you’re letting those things get to you, you’re missing the point entirely.

Dopamine System in Highly Creative People Similar to That Seen in Schizophrenics

rainier:

New research shows a possible explanation for the link between mental health and creativity. By studying receptors in the brain, researchers at Karolinska Institutet have managed to show that the dopamine system in healthy, highly creative people is similar in some respects to that seen in people with schizophrenia. “Thinking outside the box might be facilitated by having a somewhat less intact box.”

This explains a lot about me.
