Hi, I’m Laura, and I’ve seen Michael Jackson’s eyes from Thriller every time I shut my eyes when I go to sleep since I was seven.

Two muscle freaks just shouldered their way through no one at all and set their motorcycle helmets down on an empty table. The psychic space they take up is immense. I am twenty feet from them and I feel like I should apologize for existing. I like this feeling. I like knowing my place.

People of color will continue to demand their rights, opportunities and full personhood. But racism in North America won’t end because people of color demand it. Racism will only end when a significant number of white people of conscience, the people who can wield systemic privilege and power with integrity, find the will and take the action to dismantle it. That won’t happen until white people find racism in our daily consciousness as often as people of color do.

film fact of the day
The Smiths aren’t a real band. Zooey Deschanel was supposed to say “I love Radiohead” during the elevator scene of 500 Days of Summer, but she forgot her line and improvised the name “The Smiths”. the music heard in the movie by this make-believe band was provided by Pavement.
Wrong.
The Smiths are an 80s post punk/alternative band fronted by Morrisey. You might have heard of a little tune called How Soon is Now.

Got served.
thanks fellas
Initially the film’s producers put up a small Wikipedia article to give the impression that the smiths had existed but after the movie became a hit fans began filling in the backstory. Everything you know about the smiths and this Morrissey character is an elaborate patchwork of fanfiction, which is why Morrissey appears to contradict himself so often

Um no, they’re a real bandI’m afraid not. Don’t believe everything you read on the Internet

Only a very few have names. To call one another, they fling mud at each other. I have also seen Yahoos fall to the ground and throw themselves about in the dirt in order to call a friend.

So I googled “youth group flyer”
The trailer for Matt Johnson’s fake-found-footage moon-landing-hoax movie Operation Avalanche shivers with vitality. I envy its life force.
I’m a longtime fan of Matt Johnson ever since his web series Nirvana the Band the Show (which comes to TV this year). I want to watch him succeed wildly.

The cumulative effect of all of this information (more examples: when you see tweets about lost old people and choose not to retweet them, when you see GoFundMes for really good causes that you just can’t donate to, etc.) is a very weird, very modern sense of resignation and forced callousness. There’s some moral philosopher (James Rachels? Peter Singer? I forgot.) that brought up the point of proximity and awareness in evaluating which moral acts to perform. Like, is suffering worse when it is happening in front of your face than when you know it’s happening in Rwanda, but can’t actually see it? No. But also yes?
There’s more to reading than just tumblr!
