you know those girls that always seem to have unlimited sports related shirts and old camp shirts and work out shorts and their hair is always soft and they’re friends with everyone

it’s easy to sit from your balcony of privilege & look down upon the masses, ignorant of why they’re angry.

it’s easy to sit under a shelter because you’re protected by privilege & wonder why the masses complain that they’re fed up with the rain.

it’s easy to sit in your warm house with state of the art equipment & wonder why people constantly complain that they’re left out in the cold

it’s easy to celebrate because your crops have yielded a high amount & question why other people complain, unaware that they weren’t given enough seeds. unaware that it barely ever rains here… the sun doesn’t even shine here…

it’s easy to be blinded by privilege. to remain neutral in situations of oppression simply because you are unaffected. but to remain neutral, is to strengthen the power of the oppressor.

Drake dropped the video for “Hotline Bling” earlier this week, and it looked awfully familiar.

James Turrell, the artist whose installation work with light and space Drake took inspiration from, finally answered the question we’ve all been asking:

“While I am truly flattered to learn that Drake f*cks with me, I nevertheless wish to make clear that neither I nor any of my woes was involved in any way in the making of the Hotline Bling video.”

Could’ve fooled us!

He is gone

My day in pictures: (1) waking up with tea and youth criminology, (2) some more criminology, (3) running with my dog, (4) checking out master programmes, (5) watching an episode of lie to me, (6) journaling with my best friend.

Masterpieces in Agar. These are some of the most beautiful Agar Art pics from (and inspired by) the annual competition hosted by the American Society for Microbiology. Read more about the contest, the artists, and their work here.
