Like In The Pictures
quickienewyork:
“How come you don’t sit naked in the window drinking coffee while you watch the snow fall? Like in the pictures.”
“How come you don’t drink scotch in a suit and tie while sitting on a leather chair with your big cock hanging out? You know. Like in the pictures.”
We stared at each other from opposite ends of the couch, and neither one of us blinked. Her flannel pajamas had...
How difficult is it for religious people to...

I spent 20 minutes in my Intro to Ethics discussion arguing with a Catholic girl that while it is possible to formulate moral principles from a basis other than religion, if you choose to adopt a spiritual belief system as your own personal basis for what you think is right and wrong, then that’s fine too.
And she got so mad. She pretty much spat at me:
Catholic girl: How can you...
The morning air was cool, but not unpleasant, and dew covered the grass all around us. You were naked, laying next to me on the hill overlooking the woods. You rolled lazily in the grass while stray blades stuck to your body. My head rested on our pile of clothes. The sun fought behind the clouds and fog, casting our world in a soft grey mist that faded the trees into nothingness and left us...
I am in Seattle
I am jet-lagged, so I went to sleep at 3pm and woke up at midnight, got a breakfast sandwich at a 24 hour Subway (Amazing! When did these things happen?) and now it’s almost 3am and I have to be in uniform and in formation at 7 and then start getting my paperwork done at great speed throughout the day. Should take me about 5-7 days total, not counting the weekend (which I have free and will...
Thoughts while at the Narita Airport
It is the 8th of February 2012 as I write this, sitting at terminal 47 of the Narita Airport in Tokyo, Japan. It is 2:23pm and my flight back to the United States leaves in about four and a half hours. I have been to the Narita Airport more than I have any other airport in the world. The first time I was here it was June 16th, 2008.
As those who fly can tell you, airports seem to exist on their...

Dear Japan,
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
Love,

I don't know why, but I just feel like stirring...

ATTENTION TUMBLR:
I have never seen even a fragment of an episode of Doctor Who (animated gifs do not count), and the near-constant stream of Doctor Who related posts on my dashboard has turned me off so thoroughly that I have no intention of ever trying to rectify that.
I hate that I can recognize things as references to a show I have never watched.
THERE I SAID IT.

Just so I’m clear: Misogyny in advertising on TV is totally okay. Violence on TV is totally okay. Encouraging people to self-diagnose mental illness on TV is totally okay.
Flipping the bird on TV, though, is totally not okay.
Is that pretty much it?
Okay, that’s what I thought. So, allow me to just say something real quick here, okay?
For fuck’s sake, America, it’s not the 1950s...
I'm not going to be on Tumblr much in the future.
Just for about a week, week and a half. Gonna be busy. But after that I’ll have a lot of time.
I’ll be back. I’ll miss you.
Two nights left in Japan.

LOST: SELF-RESPECT (REBLOG FOR SIGNAL BOOST)
gublerwood:
I don’t know, you guys. I’m really at a loss here. I can’t find my self-respect. It seems I have misplaced it. Here’s a photo of me with my self-respect fully intact:
See? Look at how happy I look? I’m fully clothed and you can just see the self-respect radiating off of me.
But somewhere in between that picture being taken and this picture being taken….
My self-respect...

Tonight sucked for the most part.
But I made a chocolate shake that was like… 1/2 chocolate ice cream, 1/6 milk, and 1/3 chocolate syrup.
So that was totally alright.

Watermarks
I seriously wish that photographers would watermark all their photos all the time.
It would make sorting all my photos so much easier. And sometimes I have a handful of photos by someone who is clearly the same photographer and I have no idea who they are so besides being unable to label the folder properly I have no idea where to find more of their work.
And before anyone suggests the google...
I think about her sometimes
I think about her on all fours. Her shoes kicked to the side in order to be quick, but her jeans still bunched around her ankles. Her shirt pulled up leaving her torso nude but her shoulders covered. Her hair falls around her and sticks to her lips. In the afternoon sunlight that pours through the window she moves like liquid porcelain. She is soft and warm. Her breathing is quick and heavy, and...
