HOW IS THIS 6 SECONDS
This is literally one of my favorite vines, a masterpiece really and I will always reblog it and it’s just - I love so many just wonderful LOVING TOUCHES about it and it’s
- The beautiful facial expressions and flawlessly communicative gestures the likes of which would be at home in my college-level dramatic arts classes
- The universal relateability
- The technical video and sound editing that’s DIRECTLY on the song beat, absolutely A+ timing and that shit is not easy to do
- The amazing dramatic use of slow-motion that tells like - this is some Shakespearean drama story - conflict, BETRAYAL, this is Julias Caeser, this is The Iliad
- The freaking teacher being in on it and being convinced to shake it down now
in case nobody’s seen the sequel:

“She Don’t Care”
Favorite song from Ty’s new album (so far). What’s yours?
Got a new job outside of Chicago; started a month ago. Spent two weeks living in a cheap hotel frequented by dealers and prostitutes, then two weeks in a nicer / twice-as-expensive extended stay hotel. I kind of missed the crack den, though; it had more flavor.
Moving to the city this weekend. Here’s my new place. Woo!

Boston. Fucking horrible.
I remember, when 9/11 went down, my reaction was, “Well, I’ve had it with humanity.”
But I was wrong. I don’t know what’s going to be revealed to be behind all of this mayhem. One human insect or a poisonous mass of broken sociopaths.
But here’s what I DO know. If it’s one person or a HUNDRED people, that number is not even a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the population on this planet. You watch the videos of the carnage and there are people running TOWARDS the destruction to help out. (Thanks FAKE Gallery founder and owner Paul Kozlowski for pointing this out to me). This is a giant planet and we’re lucky to live on it but there are prices and penalties incurred for the daily miracle of existence. One of them is, every once in awhile, the wiring of a tiny sliver of the species gets snarled and they’re pointed towards darkness.
But the vast majority stands against that darkness and, like white blood cells attacking a virus, they dilute and weaken and eventually wash away the evil doers and, more importantly, the damage they wreak. This is beyond religion or creed or nation. We would not be here if humanity were inherently evil. We’d have eaten ourselves alive long ago.
So when you spot violence, or bigotry, or intolerance or fear or just garden-variety misogyny, hatred or ignorance, just look it in the eye and think, “The good outnumber you, and we always will.”

After I took her photo, she stuck her cheek out for a kiss. After I gave her one, she said: “Isn’t love great?”
“Yes it is,” I replied. Then she leaned in and said:
“But sex is better.”
