🗡 mad cowboy disease....

[deathdxnces]

“ if you’ve seen my lil’ cowboy, do be a doll and send her my way, won’t you? ”

@agonizedembrace

"You're mistakin' me for an errand girl, madam," False, ironic sweetness accents her annoyance; the glare sent the demon's way has little of angelic, despite her nature. As Evelynn may have found out by now, she ain't delicate nor soft, and not prone to sweetness either. One did not survive the fall of her home, scarred and tainted and last of her kin, to be amenable and gentle - nor, in Irelia's case, eager to be in the middle of whatever blasphemy Akali saw fit to commit herself to.

"If ya want your lil' cowboy, go after her yourself. Ain't no one stopping ya, and I've no interest in playing a role in your toying with her."

[acrmony-a]

my brain: high noon zed when he finally makes a deal w/ a devil/demon will be so badass , gunning people down , never sweats , calm , cool , AND collected

reality: cries a lot. , very frustrated and scared , is scared of what he’s become. visibly hurt when the children who used to come to church shy away from him and look scared , ultimately likely feels abandoned by the people he wanted to protect ,  hates the feeling of the flames on his skin , angry ,  probably wishes he just took shooting lessons tbh. 

[firefliiedarch]

oh yea , i’ll post something about it on here too , seeing as i gotta update my rules on this blog as well anyway .

Mimicry / theft is not flattery . 

I see it - any kind of it , including taking inspiration from me or my friends - your uncreative ass is fucking blocked permanently . imagine people having such shit self - esteem that they decide to scummy enough to steal from other people .  

just ... fuck you  :)

[miighted]

As soon as the front door opens, the strange mechanical cowboy is already talking. "Hey— get your sister and leave. Take the back door. Watch your step; I've already placed mines down. Go north until you hit the next town. Got it?" The shutters over his orange eyes blink. He's entirely covered in dirt and blood, and holding a noisy clockwork monstrosity of a gun in his hands. "Name's Jhin, by the way. Now go."

unprompted / always accepting 

                The door opens with a heavy clatter, the metal hinges rattling sharply as a man who seemed more man-made than anything stands tall and lithe in the door way with the blistering sunlight behind him casting an even longer shadow on the old wood floorboards. His voice quickly follows, leaving Garen stunned in shock and bewilderment at the omen he came bearing. His mind only vaguely hitches at the mention of mines ( how in all this wicked hell were they supposed to know where those were? ), shaking his head briefly while his mouth hung open while trying to find his words. 

                “Why? What’s going on?” Garen demands, standing between the mechanical figure and his sister, but she’s always been a perceptive girl. A quick wit but a good heart often meant she got herself into bad company but was fast enough to slip out of it or fend for herself, but that did not change how protective Garen always felt. 

                His uncle quickly rises from where he sat in the kitchen when the stranger came bursting through his door, his shotgun held in both hands while his weathered features seem to grow darker. A realization seems to settle tightly around Nikkolas, like a coil of hot metal bringing his shoulder in taunt while his jaw locks. Garen’s own brow creases with confusion, his lips parting to question why his uncle seems to know more about what’s going on then either of the siblings. Before Garen can question him, though, his uncle’s calm but strong voice rises above the brewing chaos. 

                “Do as the man says, Garen and Lux. Protect each other.” There is a heavy finality in the way he gives those words, and suddenly Garen feels a newfound panic rattling in his chest like the fragile, rapid beat of a hummingbird’s wing. Both Garen and Lux stammer out his name, Garen stepping towards him, but his sister is tugging his sleeve and heading towards the back door as the man, Jhin as he introduced himself, had told them to. 

                There’s a thrum beating in his chest that is not his heart, like a bright beat of light threatening to burst from his chest under the new pressure of sudden emotions. They don’t have time, there’s shouting in the distance, Garen hears the slow winding noise of Jhin’s gun winding up, his uncle loads bullets into the barrel of his gun. Everything feels so slow and so fast all at once, like the world is moving rapidly around them while his body feels as heavy as lead, the sound of those metal shells coming like distant echos to his ears. Lux is the only one to have enough clarity to grab the jug of water from the kitchen and their coats hanging by the door.  She’s leading this time, her hand extended behind her to lead Garen out the door, a hand clutched to her chest as the shouting is coming faster now, and all Garen can do is start to run with her. 

                His sister’s hands are clutched over her chest and Garen isn’t sure if he can see a golden light glowing against the palm holding their coats or if it’s a trick of his own disoriented mind.

'SighSwoon' merges self-care tips with hilarious memes on Instagram

Scrolling through @SighSwoon on Instagram is the equivalent of picking up a mysterious book at a thrift shop and falling into words that both enlighten and entertain.  

Gabi Abrao, a 24-year-old Los Angeles native, is the mind behind one of Instagram's shiniest hidden gems. SighSwoon showcases self-reflective memes and guides on how to feel things, whether it's simple pleasures or a broken heart. It’s a treasure trove of content tailored for millennials navigating creative lives. 

Sighswoon began in the summer of 2016, Abrao tells Mashable over email. Heartbreak and the desire to make some changes drove her toward the internet as a medium for creating and connecting with others, mainly through memes. With an ever-growing follower count of 62.3K, she's connected with a lot of people.

“When I share a realization online and see that thousands of people are going through the same thing, it makes me feel less alone, less hard on myself. I want people to feel this way too — understood, empowered,” Abrao explains.

Reminder that we’re all multi-faceted human beings and inner movements and conditions are subject to change constantly. There is no fixed condition. The more you do and the more you experience, the more understanding you will gain about your many facets and when they show up for you. There is so much to you - your capabilities, your moods, your modes. Being in one mode doesn’t make you in fixed opposition to the the other. There is no forever, there is no never. Fixation is an illusion. Change and shape-shifting is nature. After you understand your modes, you may get close to managing them. The gift of this will be synchronicity and balance. ** (Reposting myself from last October because this theme keeps showing up for me time and time again. Love this truth too much. Happy shapeshifting.)

A post shared by GABI + MEMES (@sighswoon) on Apr 7, 2019 at 6:20pm PDT

The artist uses her platform to offer a plethora of self-care tips, from how to sunbathe ("a secluded location where you can get as naked as possible") to the best ways to "shapeshift," a visualization practice for when you're uncentered. Reading her is kind of like speaking to a caring physician who knows exactly what ails you and then gives you the perfect prescription, free of charge.

Three years ago, following a mildly devastating heartbreak, I dragged my mattress and box spring to the very center of the room and said, “I am a lush, self-sustaining island“. I slept in the center of the room for three days. That weekend, I took myself to a local playhouse. A 20-seat theater, the space was tiny and intimate. I arrived alone in a long black dress and proceeded to watch a stubborn man fall in love with an alien. The play was incredible, surprising, I cried. Once home, I felt ready for the luxury of leaning on a wall and shoved my bed back up against it. . . Later, ready for guests and no longer isolating, I thought of myself as a castle in the desert. “Grand for itself, wise for itself,” I wrote in a poem. In this new form, I was rejecting the need for outside validation, especially that of romantic partners. I imagined myself made of stone that remained cool, even at the highest noon. I imagined myself as an abundant whimsical structure in an environment lacking of. Sturdy and welcoming and independent. “Grand when you arrive, grand when you leave,“ I added to the poem. . . In a meditation class in high school, our teacher told us to pick our place. My teacher, who did past life regression on dogs, said, “Pick a place to be in. Just sit there and listen. Make room for visits from animals, insects, spirits.“ I settled for a giant warm boulder in the sun, next to a free-flowing river, surrounded by woods. A buffalo visited me that day, my eyes closed in a classroom. When things are neutral, when things are good, when things are great, I am the boulder in the sun by the river. Or I am laying on it. . . The house cat reminds me to stretch my body and take time in the sun. The house cat makes me not feel guilty for napping too long or staring at the traffic outside. The house cat reminds me to give myself permission to relax and take it slow.

With so much to do and see online today, it can be difficult to slow your scroll and ask yourself how you're feeling. Abrao's hyper-aware content offers a mirror with which followers can take a nice, long look at themselves. The focus falls on subjects like self-worth, illusions, success, and creativity. She utilizes extensive captions to explain specific ideas in depth — or even just to describe a sunset.

me drinking the sunset on a hill overlooking the city. it’s incredible how some of the most impactful events occur in line with some of the most devastating. sometimes intensity is just intensity. i am living my dreams and aching simultaneously, and i’d be a fool to think this could ever be any other way. dual, shifting, unbelievably fair. i am so happy to still be here. when things feel gigantic, and the imagination builds tall tales to match the sensation, we can always return to water and sunshine.

A post shared by GABI + MEMES (@sighswoon) on Mar 26, 2019 at 3:50pm PDT

“As a teenager, I used to do street art wheat paste posters around the city that said ‘sigh swoon sigh’ on them," Abrao says of her page’s unusual name. "It was a mini poem I made up and attached meaning to, and sharing it like that was a reason to run around and be bad. Years later, the phrase would come back around and feel like the most fitting title for what my page has become.”

My Higher Self just whispered this to me and I was floored. May we recognize crossfire. May we recognize deliberate, aimed fire. May we protect ourselves first before engaging in any perceived battle.

The Sighswoon feed is aesthetically pleasing, everything kissed with a tint of beige. It's light and welcoming, which is exactly the way Abrao wanted it. She blames her fascination with the hue on her time spent at the beach: “I was renting a bed and a balcony in a living room for $500/month. The building’s stucco was beige, the cheap '90s carpet was beige, and the sand was beige. I think I just wanted to match everything.”

“The cyborg in me recognizes the cyborg in you,” reads her bio, just above a link to her online store where she sells merch that features the saying on totes and sweatshirts. “It’s a claim to embracing the digital age,” Abrao explains, “the very human-meets-technology existence we all participate in, and are still wearily adapting to.” She admits that while it’s meant to be humorous, she also means it with her “whole heart."

With just about three years of memeing under her (beige) belt, Abrao has figured out the formula for making a solid one.

“A good meme is funny, relatable, insightful, and healing. In that order. You should laugh, then feel connected to the creator or others who understand it, then experience some introspect, then leave with a healed feeling from those three processes,” she muses. Her delivery method varies as she utilizes many different meme formats.

ok fine ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A post shared by GABI + MEMES (@sighswoon) on Feb 5, 2019 at 10:30am PST

Occasionally, Abrao will post pictures of herself wearing interesting outfits made of neutral textiles and glowy silks. These portraits provide a face to the name (as well as maintaining her color-coded image). They also fuel fan encounters at her part-time book store gig: "A few times I have rung up a book, handed it to the person across the counter, and they’re just staring at me, and they say 'You make memes right?'"

View this post on Instagram

Years ago, I read a passage by an unknown source that said - “When you have an amazing day, take note of what you were wearing, what you ate, who you were with, what you did. Do the same with bad days.” This shirt is my absolute favorite of mine, and I’ve only had good days in it.

A post shared by GABI + MEMES (@sighswoon) on Apr 17, 2019 at 5:11pm PDT

Abrao just wants to help everyone chill out. "I aim for my page to be accessible, empowering, and soothing," she says. And she wants to keep it up for as long as possible. 

"I wish to continue my studies of the invisible and unseen — documenting my findings through paintings, writings, videos, memes, and other art forms," she says. Her end goal is literally out of this world: "I will operate a carousel in the desert some day, and I hope to re-spawn on another planet in my next life." 

In the midst of all the noise that is Instagram in 2019, Sighswoon provides a light-filled digital oasis, a faraway page that's easy to get lost on. Be careful, though. You might just walk away feeling refreshed and renewed. And with an affinity for beige.

#TBT: Paboritong Miyembro

Noong ako'y isang Directioner pa, bale noong 2012-2014, ang paborito ko talagang miyembro ay sina Zayn Malik at Harry Styles. Mahirap talaga pumili noon sa isa lang, dahil iba-iba ang kanilang natatanging anyo't kagalingan.

 Nagustuhan ko si Harry Styles dahil sa makatuwid ay pogi siya, siya ang pinakasikat, ang magaling rin naman talaga kumanta. 

Si Zayn Malik naman ay may natatanging appeal talaga sa aming mga Directioner noon; pa-"mysterious" kumbaga. Sobrang ganda rin ng boses ni Zayn, lalo na sa kanyang mga high notes sa kanilang mga kanta.

DEAR CLASS OF 2020: It’s Commencement SZN! The Obamas, Taraji P. Henson, Loni Love & More Step Up To Make It Memorable

Graduation season is here! Unfortunately, grads will not be able to walk across the stage to receive their diplomas. However, celebs are stepping in to make it a memorable 2020 Commencement. Grab your cap and gown and celebrate inside…

It sucks that grade schoolers, professional school grads, high school seniors and college students will not get to experience walking across the stage to celebrate the next step in their lives due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, Facebook, YouTube and other social media platforms have teamed up with celebs to host virtual commencement ceremonies for the history books.

We already told you about Facebook's graduation ceremony that will feature speeches and appearances from Oprah, Lil Nas X and more on May15th. Now, additional commencement ceremonies have been planned to give the Class of 2020 the best commencement ceremony ever considering the circumstances.

Forever president Barack Obama is set to deliver a special speech during the “Show Me Your Walk HBCU Edition” virtual commencement to honor Historically Black Colleges and Universities. The ceremony is scheduled to go down on May 16th at 2pm EST. The event will be hosted by Kevin Hart with special appearances from Steve Harvey, NBA ballers Chris Paul and Vince Carter, legendary actress Debbie Allen, actress Vivica Fox.

Graduates will also be treated to performances by Anthony Hamilton, Wyclef Jean, Omari Hardwick, and other musical guests—as well as a drumline mash-up featuring Doug E. Fresh.

Other participants include Chase Consumer Banking CEO Thasunda Brown Duckett, Ariel Investments Co-CEO and President Mellody Hobson, National Urban League president Marc Morial, and academic leaders from participating HBCUs.

The two-hour commencement will be live-streamed on Chase’s YouTube, Twitter, and LinkedIn channels, as well as HBCU Connect’s Facebook page and Essence Studios on Saturday, May 16th at 2pm EST.

People have been vocal about wanting the Obamas to speak to the graduating class of 2020. And they heard everyone's call.

"Over the past month, President and Mrs. Obama have received dozens of requests from around the globe to address graduating classes whose in-person commencement events have been cancelled due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic," the former president's office said in a statement on Tuesday. "Today, the Obamas are pleased to announce that they will participate in multiple virtual commencement celebrations for students, families and educators."

Forever President O will also deliver a speech for the "Graduate Together" virtual event that will air on ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC, as well as Facebook, Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, and other platforms.

Other celeb guests include LeBron James,Yara Shahidi, H.E.R., Lena Waithe, Pharrell Williams, Malala Yousafzai, the Jonas Brothers, Bad Bunny, Megan Rapinoe, and Ben Platt. The ceremony will take place on May 16th at 8pm EST and will air on the networks and social media platforms mentioned.

  SHOUTOUT TO THIS MEMPHIS XAVERITE! This Xaverite from Memphis couldn’t walk across the stage this past weekend due to the pandemic. Her dad built the graduation stage in the driveway of their Southeast MEMPHIS home. CONGRATULATIONS YOUNG LADY! From a Xaverite to another! pic.twitter.com/7THflS8XX3

— Jeremy Pierre FOX13 (@JeremypierreFOX) May 11, 2020

  No graduation stage? No problem! This proud Memphis dad built a stage for his daughter to walk across.

Torrence Burson said he hated to see his daughter, Gabrielle Pierce, upset that she couldn't walk across the stage to receive her diploma from Xavier University of Louisiana. So, he made it happen.

"After all those years, you’re going to walk across somebody’s stage if I have to build you one myself," Burson told FOX 13. And that's exactly what he did.

“Initially I was upset, I was crying. It took me like a week to stop crying. I really wanted to walk, I felt like I needed to walk,” Gabrielle said.

“I went to bed and woke up in the middle of the night and said, ‘that’s it. I’m just going to be the graduation here,'” Burson said.

Dad built the stage, they held a ceremony and it was everything the 2020 grad could ask for during this trying time.

“I was just I awe. I was amazed. I couldn’t believe a lot of people showed up. People were driving by yelling congratulations,” said Gabrielle.

Loves it!
