“Human spider-web, curator and filter of tumblr goodness, animator, comic-maker, and all-around-nice-person…”

Tumblr’s weirding me out.

“Although things might look at rest, we are always moving. ~ü In astrophysics and physical cosmology, Olbers’ paradox is the argument that the darkness of the night sky conflicts with the assumption of an infinite and eternal static universe. It is one of the pieces of evidence for a non-static universe such as the current Big Bang model. The argument is also referred to as the “dark night sky paradox.” The paradox states that at any angle from the Earth the sight line will end at the surface of a star, so the night sky should be completely white.”

“You’re supposed to do one thing. If you do more than that, people get confused.”
—Margaret Atwood, who, in addition to writing, also cartoons (via austinkleon)
“Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.”
