Set your eyes
on a heavenly canvas
painted in silence,
born of contemplation.
Wisps of gentle strokes
hover in the stillness of night,
and across an infinite wilderness
the nebulae open their dreams,
unfolding light
where darkness once slept.

In silence we find
An omen not yet fulfilled.
We take what we can.

Dreams of tomorrow
can sometimes bring sorrow.
Because time is a dance
and we all live by chance.
Making a plan
ain't the same as its execution.
Feel paralyzed? man,
there's really just one solution.

Worth pointing out please consider tracking down legit copies of the GKids release because A) they keep doing cool stuff if you keep showing up and B) their updated dub is *significantly* more sympathetic than the old one which is iirc the one that's usually on YouTube for free
Reminder to add TOKYO GODFATHERS to your Christmas movie watchlist this season! Grateful to have given (English, dubbed) voice to the trans anime icon, our beloved Hana, in this Satoshi Kon holiday classic from @gkids.com! Watch it for free on Tubi or rent it on AppleTV!

- and so I said "Fuck it" and went back to sleep.
the end of the night never comes peacefully
because every morning starts so forcefully;
and so I said "Fuck it" and went back to sleep.

I was a "McNair scholar" and now look at me having to beg on GoFundMe
To all the formerly "gifted" and "honors" kids, there is nobody who will give recognition to all the things you do right. There only ever is social scripts justifying capitalist further destabilizing already struggling ppl who were left to the wayside. There will never be a gold star.
Now that everyone wants to finally admit it's a recession then it's def a good time to retire social scripts like the bootstrap myths.

Will we ever
see
the future we have wished?
Will we ever
know
about the truth?
We can never
stop
reaching for the path;
But will we ever
drop
the habits of our wrath?

idk who needs to hear this but you don't have to be a certain age to start something. start dance, take up cooking, try to learn the new language you've been wanting to learn. you got this and I believe in you.

it's never to late to start a new chapter

In case anyone was confused I’m a communist and not a social democrat. Even if the whole government was social democrats I’d still be criticizing them and advocating for communism. I’ve lost a few followers for slight mamdani critique and I want everyone to understand this so they aren’t shocked

somebody should ask Grok who the top court eunuch of all time is, Elon Musk or Wei Zhongxian.
Musk's ego was mortally wounded by Joyce Carol Oates and he's been on a narcissistic supply bender since

Mamdani hasn't even taken office yet and he's already up to three betrayals in the last week. Amazing.

As we saw with Obama, personnel is policy.
Before his election, Mamdani was adamant: The CCRB should get final say in NYPD discplinary cases. Now, after retaining Tisch as NYPD commish, Mamdani's changing his tune, saying he's mainly focused on ensuring CCRB's "recommendations" are "taken seriously." www.nydailynews.com/2025/11/20/m...
Mamdani softens hard line on role of NYPD watchdog in discipline after Tisch agrees to stay on
in the wake of announcing Wednesday that NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch will stay in her post under his administration, Mayor-elect Mamdani took a step back.

The wetness of tears falling

Her torment goes on
With mental abuse as well
Breaking us both down
Evil people can only hurt
Leading me into hatred.
