We're All Stories in the End

Merry Christmas, guys.

It’s been a while coming. I’ve tried just logging off of tumblr and taking a break, but that doesn’t really work for me. I’m in a good place, but tumblr tends to be my time suck and it’s also become my echo chamber that makes me feel like I’m doing something positive in the world when really I’m just reblogging things that everyone on here agrees with anyway. I think I can make aspects of my life better if I put my energy into other things. If anyone really wants to stay in touch let me know and I can give you my twitter handle. :)

This is Taliesin Myrddin.  He was 23 years old.  He passed away last night in Portland Oregon along with another hero while defending two muslim girls from hateful abuse from a white supremecist on the MAX train.  The media has a lot of information to give you about the asshole that took their lives, but I want to share Taliesin and eventually the other hero too.  They are the ones who deserve to be known, they are the ones who literally died to do what was right. They are the true spirit of Portland Oregon, not the evil man who did this to them.  

This is Rick Best.  He was 53 and a veteran of the army.  He had three teenage sons and a 12 year old daughter.  He also gave his life to defending two muslim girls on the MAX train last night.  He also deserves to be known.  Thank you Talisein and Rick.  You are symbols of the good in this world and true heroes to your city.  I am so sorry for what happened to you and send all my love to your grieving families and loved ones

This man’s humanity was evident long before he saved someone, and he shouldn’t have been required to save a life to earn our respect
