if you close your eyes right before the train hits, your brain will think that you have died. some people find calmness in this.

I always reblog this I just love it so much 

okay listen. A train is coming towards you. You close your eyes. The train stops coming towards you. You haven’t died. Your brain is really freaking relieved that the train is not coming towards you anymore. That’s why you feel calm. Brains aren’t so stupid that they think you’ve died just because everything is black. It might have felt a bit stressed by seeing that there is a large vehicle travelling towards you, because sometimes it can have problems with understanding things outside of you and telling what’s real and what isn’t. But your brain perfectly aware that your heart is still beating and your lungs are still breathing and blood is still travelling around your body. That’s it’s job. You don’t feel calm because you “died”, you feel calm because you’re ALIVE.

Can we stop glorifying suicidal thoughts now please?

No matter what happens, you will always have an ancient part right in the middle of your human brain, somewhere that you have no access to, that wants nothing more than for you to stay alive.

literally one of the coolest things hussie has done hhhHH

I really do gotta point out I had the same “aaaa” moment watching this that I did watching Cascade.

As in, wow, holy shit, this is what sequential art can do.

Homestuck is literally, literally breaking panels and moving in and out of them. I mean haha, yes, it’s funny as hell and LOL meta and all that. But holy shit does this get me excited about comics.

comics no longer have to be still

comics no longer have to be quiet

comics can do whatever the fuck they want

And I think in the end, after we’ve all set our horns on the shelf and our godtier shirts aside, THAT is what Homestuck’s overall legacy is going to be. It BROKE comics. And made them better. I seriously hope people are studying its effect and will put it in goddamn studies because WOW.

GOD I LOVE COMICS

GOD I LOVE SEQUENTIAL ART

I never get tired of this photo.

Ella Fitzgerald was not allowed to play at Mocambo because of her race. Then, one of Ella’s biggest fans made a telephone call that quite possibly changed the path of her career for good. Here, Ella tells the story of how Marilyn Monroe changed her life:

“I owe Marilyn Monroe a real debt… she personally called the owner of the Mocambo, and told him she wanted me booked immediately, and if he would do it, she would take a front table every night. She told him – and it was true, due to Marilyn’s superstar status – that the press would go wild. The owner said yes, and Marilyn was there, front table, every night. The press went overboard. After that, I never had to play a small jazz club again. She was an unusual woman – a little ahead of her times. And she didn’t know it.”

jesus christ this is so much better than all of the “you don’t have to be size zero!!!!!” and “i don’t mind living in a man’s world if i can be a woman!!!!!!!” bullshit related to marilyn monroe i see.

sisterhood yo….
