I feel this way, like, all the fucking time! May 31st should be declared “Whitmanian Declarations of Love for Your Friends” day or something like that. He woulda liked that.I’m kind of dreadful but somehow I ended up with the most marvelous friends
I keep sending myself note-to-selves to rid myself of her, this Goddess. In the end, I always can’t. Its actually kind of troublesome.
"Never regret thy fall,
O Icarus of the fearless flight
For the greatest tragedy of them all
Is never to feel the burning light."

If it is unpermissible, in fact fatal
to be personal and undesirable
to be literal — detrimental as well
if the eye is no innocent — does it mean that
one can live only on top leaves that are small
reachable only by a beast that is tall? —
of which the giraffe is the best example —
the unconversational animal.
When plagued by the psychological,
a creature can be unbearable
that could have been irresistible;
or to be exact, exceptional
since less conversational
than some emotionally-tied-in-knots animal.
After all
consolations of the metaphysical
can be profound. In Homer, existence
is flawed; transcendence, conditional;
“the journey from sin to redemption, perpetual.”
“To A Giraffe” by Marianne Moore (via thetargetbird)
Rafael Lozano-Hemmer ”Solar Equation”
“Solar Equation” is a large-scale public art installation that consists of a faithful simulation of the Sun, 100 million times smaller than the real thing. Commissioned by the Light in Winter Festival in Melbourne, the piece features the world’s largest spherical balloon, custom-manufactured for the project, which is tethered over Federation Square and animated using five projectors.

It’s funny when the mind thinks about the psyche,
as if a grasshopper could ponder a helicopter.
It’s a bad idea to fall asleep
while flying a helicopter:
when you wake up, the helicopter is gone
and you are too, left behind in a dream,
and there is no way to catch up,
for catching up doesn’t figure
in the scheme of things. You are
who you are, right now,
and the mind is so scared it closes its eyes
and then forgets it has eyes
and the grasshopper, the one that thinks
you’re a helicopter, leaps onto your back!
He is a brave little grasshopper
and he never sleeps
for the poem he writes is the act
of always being awake, better than anything
you could ever write or do.
Then he springs away.
This just sniped me out of nowhere.
- “Grasshopper” by Rod Padgett (via thetargetbird)
"The craving for equality can be expressed either by the wish to draw all others down to one’s level (by belittling, excluding, tripping them up) or by the wish to draw oneself up with everyone else (by appreciating, helping, taking pleasure in others’ success)."
Human, All Too Human, Part I by Nietzsche (via thedailynietzsche)
Watching both parts;
I actually didn’t find this offensive. Its funny from both sides though because I am probably a little immature like she is saying (or I would be, knowing myself, if I were on the forums which I am not), while at the same time I see her as taking a lot of these (little) things a little too personal (such as the type perceptions of each other).
I have actually been really interested in this area, specifically, of type (temperament, or archetype) perceptions of each other. Especially the differences between the multiple Inuitive-types, as we all know Obama’s N is a shit-load different than Romney’s N. LOL.
In the end though, I find that if one cannot embrace the immaturity of these things—then, like me, get off of certain parts of the internet.

Pardon my French but, this video offends the living shit out of me for several reasons.
Just watch and tell me what you think.
