"Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams." ~ Ashley Smith

"Now the trumpet summons us again, a call to bear the burden of a long twilight struggle, rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation." #JFK

In the Course of human events, it becomes necessary to assume among the powers of #Earth, a decent respect for the opinions of mankind. 

All are created equal, endowed by #Earth & Divine w/ unalienable natural Rights. Among these are Life, Liberty & the pursuit of Happiness.

Whenever any Form of Govt. becomes destructive, it is the Right of humans to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new safe, happy Govt.

 Experience shows that mankind are more disposed to suffer sufferable evils, than to right themselves by abolishing accustomed social forms.

When a long train of abuses & absolute Despotism reduces humanity to evil & #War, it is their right, & their duty, to throw off such Govt.

Who is that cheerful man with the adorably double-braided beard and why is he dressed up as a Japanese schoolgirl? Kotaku’s Brian Ashcraft has the scoop: This is Hideaki Kobayashi and he’s known (and rightfully so) as “Sailor Suit Old Man.”

Recently, Japanese sites and Twitter users in Tokyo have spotted an old guy dressed in a sailor style school uniform—a truly unusual sight to behold. People were amused. People were baffled. What the hell was going on?!

Japanese site IT Media met Kobayashi and asked him the question on everyone’s mind: Why do you dress like a Japanese schoolgirl?

“That’s a difficult question,” said Kobayashi. “It’s not really something I’ve thought too deeply about. Hrm. I guess it’s because sailor suits look good on me?”

We hope Mr. Kobayashi has some inkling of just how awesome he is. We can’t stop smiling as we look at these photos. Head over to Kotaku to learn more about “Sailor Suit Old Man,” our new hero of Japanese weirdness.

  At times poetry is the vertigo of bodies and the vertigo of speech and the vertigo of death;

   the walk with eyes closed along the edge of the cliff, and the verbena in submarine gardens;

   the laughter that sets on fire the rules and the holy commandments;

   the descent of parachuting words onto the sands of the page;

   the despair that boards a paper boat and crosses,

   for forty nights and forty days, the night-sorrow sea and the day-sorrow desert;

   the idolatry of the self and the desecration of the self and the dissipation of the self;

   the beheading of epithets, the burial of mirrors;   

   the flute solo on the terrace of memory and the dance of flames in the cave of thought;

   the migrations of millions of verbs, wings and claws, seeds and hands;

   the nouns, bony and full of roots, planted on the waves of language;

   the love unseen and the love unheard and the love unsaid: the love in love.

Syllables seeds.
