Being a good person is a choice. Don’t let people fool you into believing that truly good people never have bad thoughts, are never tempted by the easier path, by the low road, never mess up or act out selfishly. Never believe a person can be good without making a conscious effort.
Every single time you do something good, you’ve made a decision to make the world a little brighter.
Goodness is not an inherent trait, it is a choice. Keep making it! I see you, I’m proud of you, and I’m rooting for you!

Not a single lie in sight……
Hello, college grad that actually wrote an award winning paper on this topic! Here’s some knowledge I’d like to share: There’s actually been studies as to why it’s usually white kids, a large conclusion amongst the criminology community is that those that often have more privileged lives (white kids in our society’s case) are less adept to dealing with stress and denial. Whereas minorities and others are more likely to cope and function normally despite stressors because of the constant stressors that come from systematic racism and/or other platforms of more limited priviledge.
TL;DR: It’s usually a white kid because their privilege incacipated their ability to learn how to handle stress/ denial/ whatever without acting out. The less privileged are done used to the bs and thus typically dont turn to extreme measures as coping mechanisms.
EDIT: I had reblogged this and added a link to the paper (which I should’ve done to begin with,) but it’s probably best I just edit my original reblog and add the link (which I also should’ve just done already.)
Anyway, it can be found fully sourced here.
👀👀👀👀 I like tea spilled with sources and data.
Plot twist: Hypnos is actually the most hardworking person in the house.

havent seen the face of despair in a while
Both reactions are amazing
A Dark Souls-like game where the lore for a weapon gets less vague the more you upgrade it. Broken Blade: A brittle sword. You can’t seem to let it go. Unpolished Blade: A cherished weapon from ages past. Polished Blade: You remember something. Bride’s Blade: Your wife’s sword.
at first i wanted to make this funny but it just made me sad

you have no idea how much I needed this today
There’s a reason a sewing kit includes scissors, a wood shop has a saw, and a kitchen is full of knives. In order to build something, to create something on purpose, you have to be prepared to cut away what’s extra. A bolt of cloth does not a blanket make, a piece of wood a shelf, nor a loaf of bread a sandwich. When you snip off frayed bits of string, cut the wood into shape, or slice the end off a loaf of bread you are creating, with the act of removal, something closer to what you desire.
Now let’s say you’re not sewing a blanket, you’re not building a shelf, not making a sandwich. Let’s say you’re crafting a life in which you are happy. You will end up removing things. You’ll leave partners, stop talking to family members, let go of friends. You’ll move apartments, lose jobs, change wardrobes. And you will feel their absence. You’ll look at the scraps of cloth, the odd angles of wood, the stale end of the loaf. But that cloth couldn’t keep you warm and that tiny corner of wood can’t store books. You wouldn’t be full from that little bit of bread or happy with that person. In the art of creating there is the act of removal and it is essential.
Stretching the metaphor further: my sewing kit includes a seam ripper, and my hammer has a claw to pry out nails. I have made decisions that looked done, looked final, and realized they were wrong (for me), so I ripped them back, pried them out, and tried again.

reblog if you've ever read fanfiction from a fandom you're not a part of or for a show/movie you've never seen
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
dads the same in all universes
To add to this:
I’m so glad the NHL has embraced the bubble
THE TRILOGY
The Terror: Infamy - 2x10 - “Did something happen tonight? In the war?”
the dawning realization of this gif set is so chilling
Another thing they did was in the ending credits, they put the cast and crew alongside pics of their ancestors during the war, some who served, some who were interred in American camps, some who were both. So for example, the lead actor, Derek Mio:
Marcus Toji, who played an interpreter in the show:
The director, Lily Mariye:
There were others too, but the actors in the scene giffed above? George Takei and Sab Shimono? They were in camps themselves.
When I read Hiroshima I felt like I knew where this was going, but the last gif still made my heart stop for just a moment

SEA SHANTY RECOMMENDATIONS???
also calling upon shanty wizard @theiceandbones! these are actual work shanties (listen for stressed phrases that could be associated with pulling or heaving, like “way-hey and up she rises”; also for call-and-response songs), with some nuance between what counts as a shanty or just a sea song. i’ll also put some possible dates ascribed to these songs, since some of them are pretty darn old!
My Son John (~1803-1815; Napoleonic era)
South Australia (~1888; also have the crew of the Statsraad Lehmkuhl singing it!)
Haul Away Joe (18th c.)
Strike the Bell (1865)
Roll the Old Chariot Along / A Drop of Nelson’s Blood (19th c.)
Santiana / Santy Anno (~1850)
Blow the Man Down (pre-1860s)
Leave Her, Johnny (19th c.)
Randy Dandy Oh (18th c.)
Johnny, Come Down to Hilo (pre- 1914)
Roll Down to Old Maui (mid 19th c.)
Drunken Sailor (early 19th c. or earlier)
Wellerman (~1840s)
Roll the Woodpile Down (~1888)
High Barbary (~1595)
Honorable mention: Soran Bushi (a Japanese sea shanty! the dance mimics lifting cargo, dragging in nets, and pulling ropes!)
SEA SHANTY RECS???? DON’T MIND IF I DO
Barrett’s Privateers by Stan Rogers: This is also a work shanty, as if you were manning a capstan! (As iconic as this is Stan does make a few mistakes wrt the workings of a ship, nevertheless this should be on everyone’s shanty playlist!)
Sailor Ain’t A Sailor: This one is also known as The Last Shanty, the lyrics are sort of an “okay boomer” but in response to older sailors who worked on authentic sailing ships rather than steamships, which are thought to have been the death of the shanty. “They gave us an engine that first went up and down/Then with more technology the engine went around/We’re good with steam and diesel but what’s a mainyard for?/A stoker ain’t a stoker with a shovel anymore!”
The Press Gang by Sean Dagher: A “press gang” is what the Georgian Navy used to use in order to gain more sailors- one would literally be tortured into service by a group of navymen, many of these souls were just landsmen with no sailing experience whatsoever
Across the Western Ocean by William Pint: this is a sort of woeful shanty, transatlantic voyages were perilous due to the capricious nature of the North Atlantic and so many back home were fearful for their loved ones who traveled. This is where this shanty comes in!
Go to Sea No More: not so much as a work shanty as this is about a sailor who’s fed up with life at sea!
John Kanak (or John Kanaka): there are many versions of this song, but traditionally it was used as a long haul shanty while hoisting the sails. South Pacific in origin!
Spanish Ladies: one of the oldest shanties out there, there are also many versions of this one but the story remains the same: the distance from Ushant to Scilly is wide and they are unable to locate themselves, therefore they use the “sandy bottom” they’ve been able to sound.
Eliza Lee: a shanty from the Quaker-founded Blackball Line, Eliza Lee is about a packet ship delivering mail from England to America. Sailors on packet ships were from areas like Liverpool or New York, hence the references!
Enjoy!!!
I don’t have specifics, but I do have some spotify playlists that are all shanty or at least shanty-adjacent!
Shant
Sea Shanties
What Shall We Do With The Drunken Sailor?
Shanties!
Other names to look for:
The Longest Johns
David Coffin
Stan Rogers
(Obviously there are others, but these are the ones I keep in my back pocket)
The album Rogue’s Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs, and Chanteys is the one that actually got me first into shanties! I got it when it first came out, back in 2006? :O And in 2013 it got a follow up! Son of Rogues Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs & Chanteys
