“We were stupefied that he died. I’ve never gotten over the shock of it. I’m still shocked he’s dead. I wake up sometimes and I’m amazed by that.” John Waters.
A moment of silence for a hog princess, please! Baltimore’s finest export, the fabulous Divine (né Harris Glenn Milstead, 19 October 1945 – 7 March 1988) died on this day precisely 35 years ago. Cult cinema actor / actress, drag monster, raspy-voiced hi-NRG disco chanteuse, all-round freak diva extraordinaire and eternal role model for punks, queers and misfits everywhere - Divine is the mutha of us all! Do something extra filthy in his memory today! Pictured: Divine photographed by Andy Warhol, 1978.
macklemore really just said walk into the club like what up I got a big cock and we just accepted that. what was going on in 2012
we all get so worn down abt leonard cohen's hallelujah bc of how much it's played but it really does have the best lyrics of any song ever
baby I've been here before I knew this room I've walked this floor I used to live alone before I knew you and I've seen your flag on the marble arch and love is not a victory march it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
Hear that bud? That's the title track being incorporated under my leitmotif. You are so fucked.
Kurt Vonnegut wrote: “When I was 15, I spent a month working on an archeological dig. I was talking to one of the archeologists one day during our lunch break and he asked those kinds of “getting to know you” questions you ask young people: Do you play sports? What’s your favorite subject? And I told him, no I don’t play any sports. I do theater, I’m in choir, I play the violin and piano, I used to take art classes.
And he went WOW. That’s amazing! And I said, “Oh no, but I’m not any good at ANY of them.”
And he said something then that I will never forget and which absolutely blew my mind because no one had ever said anything like it to me before: “I don’t think being good at things is the point of doing them. I think you’ve got all these wonderful experiences with different skills, and that all teaches you things and makes you an interesting person, no matter how well you do them.”
And that honestly changed my life. Because I went from a failure, someone who hadn’t been talented enough at anything to excel, to someone who did things because I enjoyed them. I had been raised in such an achievement-oriented environment, so inundated with the myth of Talent, that I thought it was only worth doing things if you could “Win” at them.”
“I don’t think being good at things is the point of doing them.”
I need this quote framed in every room of my house, thanks.
