Autumn & Me Saving Jane

Saving Jane - “Autumn and Me”

We earned every line in our 25 years
We cried over boys and we laughed over beers
I wouldn’t trade the girl for a song
She lets me know right where I belong

Rooftop dancing in the summer heat
New car crash on a one way street
Strangers moving up to the fourth floor
Strange, now nobody knows me more

  • Me: Ok. Script. Stonewall Vlog Script.
  • Inner Me: (reading) BORING.
  • Me: Ok. (rewrites)
  • Inner Me: Reallly?
  • Me: It's witty.
  • Inner Me: It's cheeky.
  • Me: It's very quirky.
  • Inner Me: It's very cheesy.
  • Me: You have a better idea?
  • Inner Me: Yeah, tell them a person of color, dressed in drag, slapped a cop!
  • Me: That hasn't been proven.
  • Inner Me: No one documents early queer history. Rely on oral tradition like other cultures.
  • Me: Dram-a-turg.
  • Inner Me: No one knows what that is.
  • Me: (rewrites) ...So, the hairpin head around the world started with a slap.
  • Inner Me: You're getting there.

There is a staged reading of my thesis tonight.

I have a fantastic support system that leaves me humble and loved.

…I am scared out of my mind.

“My experience of life is that it is not divided up into genres; it’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you’re lucky.” — Alan Moore

I Won't Let You Go James Morrison

James Morrison - “I Won’t Let You Go”

And if you feel the fading of the light
And you’re too weak to carry on the fight
And all your friends that you count on have disappeared
I’ll be here not gone, forever holding on

If there’s love just feel it
And if there’s life we’ll see it
This is no time to be alone, alone yeah
I won’t let you go

Emeli Sande - “Where I Sleep”

I’m from a generation undecided, 
I’m restless and I can’t help changing lanes, 
But in all the noise and the excitement, 
Your love is all that will remain, 
I’ve said all of my goodbyes to ego, 
I gambled all I got, there’s no plan B, 
It’s the first time that I’ve learnt to let go, 
It’s the only place I feel, only place I feel like me.

See the times are changing, 
I’m sure of nothing that I know, 
Except this is us and this is love, and this is where I’m home.
In a world that’s breaking, where nothing is for keeps, 
Oh this is us, this is love and this is where I sleep.
This is us, this is love and this is where I sleep.

“We, the people, declare today that the most evident of truths – that all of us are created equal – is the star that guides us still; just as it guided our forebears through Seneca Falls, and Selma, and Stonewall; just as it guided all those men and women, sung and unsung, who left footprints along this great Mall, to hear a preacher say that we cannot walk alone; to hear a King proclaim that our individual freedom is inextricably bound to the freedom of every soul on Earth. — President Obama (Inaugural Speech, 2013)” —Our President mentioned women’s equality, racial equality, and queer* equality all in one sentence, without caution, with full support, and echoing the need to remember and push forward. Stonewall was mentioned in a presidential speech, an inaugural speech. I am - Wow. Thank you, Mr. President, for remembering so many of us today. — Rebecca, creator of KNOWhomo.tumblr (via knowhomo)

Labrinth Feat. Emeli Sande — “Beneath Your Beautiful”

I’m gonna climb on top your ivory tower
I’ll hold your hand and then we’ll jump right out
We’ll be falling, falling
But that’s OK

Alias: Lenore: how to love your depressed lover. → five--a--day.tumblr.com

five—a—day:

Last night I thought I kissed
the loneliness from out your belly button.
I thought I did, but later you sat up,
all bones and restless hands, and told me
there is a knot in your body that I cannot undo.

I never know what to say to these things.
“It’s okay.” “Come back to bed.”
“Please…

Athlete — “Rubik’s Cube”

1000’s of answers
To one simple question
Come take this weight off me now

Oh I’m like a kid who just won’t let it go
Twisting and turning the colors in rows
I’m so intent to find out what it is
This is my Rubik’s cube
I know I will figure it out

Lost in the playground
Late night nostalgia
Open the sky for me now

Friends round the fire
Outside in December
Open the sky for me now
