when someone notices your copy of 'gay t-rex law firm: executive boner'
the best thing about being alive on earth is that sometimes there is a kitty
[empirical and easily verifiable claim about a work of art], but that's just my interpretation
staring transfixed at one painting on the museum wall for half an hour until a curious stranger comes and asks what you think of it, saying after a careful pause “I think he used paint for this one”
The weirdest guy I ever met in a church was this boy who referred to “Buzz Aldrin and his husband” going to the moon. I was completely baffled, and when I asked if he’d misspoken, he got really angry and accused me of being deliberately ignorant of the facts. It turned out that he was somehow comvinced that Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong were married. It took five Wikipedia articles to convince him otherwise.
The moon landing was fake: tired, passé, heard it before
The moon landing was an elaborate marriage proposal: fresh! sexy! I’m going to be thinking about this for months!
Romcom where two dudes in the 1960s fall in love and come up with an elaborate plan to become astronauts to get married in space because gay marriage is illegal everywhere but it can’t be illegal on the moon
Might make things a little awkward for Mike Collins.
He was the officiator
This is an excellent take. He officiated in orbit, and the landing was their Honey Moon.
Oh my god they were moon mates.
THEY WERE MOON MATES

I was wondering how you feel about people writing fanfiction of your works, there's not a lot out there but they are some fun stories inspired by your own on Ao3.

once an artist puts their art onto this timeline it begins to change and bloom and grow in unexpected ways. that is the wonderful thing about the trot of a writer or painter or director buckaroo.
fan fiction is just a part of the original art it is a flower blooming that i never knew was planted just an exciting seed that makes another flower then another until we have a garden that we are all sharing and watering together.
write all the fan fiction you want this proves love

When I make a map of a city, I spend some time learning about the place, its history, and the people who call it home. Over the past week I’ve been watching eruptions of police violence in so many of these cities, and more that I haven’t had the chance to get to know. I’ve seen mass movements demanding justice for Black residents only to be teargassed, shot, and beaten.
People tell me that they buy my maps because they love their city. If you love your city, then you have to love its Black population, which has been suffering under racism from police (and civilians) for too long. If you’re not Black, start by listening to your Black neighbors and following the lead of Black organizers. Support your local protests, by showing up on the ground, donating to bail funds, or some other way. Demand that violent and racist officers be held accountable. Insist on the de-militarization of police forces. Call for bloated police budgets to be redirected into services that support the community.

This might be one of my favorite posts because it blows my mind how well we keep nature off of man made things when in reality it can grow over like we were never here
