What I prized most was freedom, freedom to do my work, to give myself spontaneously and not out of duty or by command. I could not submit to such demands; rather would I choose the path of a homeless wanderer; yes, even go without love.

Taking risks and living the life I want. Making changes one day at a time.
Tumblr media
May as well weed out my followers list....
For those who have noticed, I have not been on here much lately and probably won't be. I have lots to do, and changing habits take time and discipline. Hope everyone is doing well 😊 See you all soon!
TRY and behave (ha ha, just kidding).

Looking for Ace and/or Aro novel recs
Trying to read more paper books, looking for ace and/or aro novel recs. Not a huge YA fan, but I’ll read it if you got it. Sci-fi/Fantasy is preferable, but again, I’m really not gonna be picky. Reply or reblog with novel recommendations, please!

So I decided to give Reddit a chance, started posting on there a few different selfies. Most of the comments have been complimentary. However someone wrote to me that at 32 I am way too old to be dressing the way I do. I have this one life to live and I’m not going to spend it conforming to other people’s standards of what an adult “should” dress like. I have two jobs with a uniform for both so if I want to spend the rest of my time wearing what I want it’s my prerogative.
Also I wish I could be the kind that doesn’t let the one negative thing get to me but my anxiety hyperfixates on that.

Been thinking about how 🦆ed up some life's of the protagonists and mcs in kids shows are–
Yk getting betrayed, possessed, heartbroken, nearly unalived to just have to go on and save one or more  dimensions.
But in the end they grew not only physically but mentally. Stronger bounding, friendship and all.
Wonder what my future self will think about me?
Do my friendships grow through disaster in normal life nearly the same as they do in the 'near-the-end-of-world(s)' life?
And in the end will my life be just as happy and loved-filled as theirs? Not 'perfect' bc there is no perfect life but you know peacefull at least?
Will i learn to be more forgiving not to others but to myself too?
Probably.
I'm still waiting; but can't await it to be perfectly imperfect.
Thank you for listening to my thoughts btw cutie!

DANCE HALL OF BEAUTIFUL RADIANT THNGS
[This is an event that my son hosted in 2014]
Passion and desire mix with propriety and restraint when we create the '20s/'30s dance hall.
Which side will you be on? Will you keep a spot open on your dance card for the comely stranger across the room? Or will you sweep into the arms of a willing taxi dancer, knowing that a dollar a song is all you are to them?
We will teach you to slow dance (something appropriate for any level of dancer) and provide you with a card to arrange your prances for the night. Wallflowers beware: our roving matrons will match you up.
A bevy of Taxi Dancers will also be in attendance. Who, for a dollar a dance, will "teach" you slow dancing for one song. (and feel free to inquire about our 'private classes" behind the screen.)
Doors at 7:30. Arrive early. Start filling your dance card. Music begins promptly at 8:00, with intermissions between songs. Music ends at 11:00. Slow dancing lessons provided throughout the night.
RSVP so others can start filling in your dance card. Tickets are limited.
About the name "Dance Hall of the Beautiful, Radiant Things"; with regards to Emma Goldman - http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Emma_Goldman
+
“If I can’t dance I don’t want to be in your revolution” is probably Emma Goldman’s most quoted phrase. And it’s easy to see why. It beautifully captures an anarchist vision of freedom, full of joy and vibrancy. But did Emma Goldman actually speak these words? Alix Kate Shulman explores the origins of this famous anthem of anarchism in her article “Dances with Feminists.” She reveals that it in fact sprung from a passage in Goldman’s 1931 autobiography Living My Life and was later condensed into the quote we see today. The quote still holds as a powerful expression of Goldman’s free spirit, but here are Goldman’s original words, detailing an incident at a dance party:
“At the dances I was one of the most untiring and gayest. One evening a cousin of Sasha [Alexander Berkman], a young boy, took me aside. With a grave face, as if he were about to announce the death of a dear comrade, he whispered to me that it did not behoove an agitator to dance. Certainly not with such reckless abandon, anyway. It was undignified for one who was on the way to become a force in the anarchist movement. My frivolity would only hurt the Cause.
I grew furious at the impudent interference of the boy. I told him to mind his own business, I was tired of having the Cause constantly thrown into my face. I did not believe that a Cause which stood for a beautiful ideal, for anarchism, for release and freedom from conventions and prejudice, should demand the denial of life and joy. I insisted that our Cause could not expect me to become a nun and that the movement should not be turned into a cloister. If it meant that, I did not want it. "I want freedom, the right to self-expression, everybody’s right to beautiful, radiant things.” Anarchism meant that to me, and I would live it in spite of the whole world–prisons, persecution, everything. Yes, even in spite of the condemnation of my own comrades I would live my beautiful ideal.” 
[Living My Life (New York: Knopf, 1934), p. 56]
