Attempting, Shy Novelist and History Student: Eurasian Steppe Appreciation / I think I want to live in a yurt post!:

Hi’a Everyone!

I thought I would do a post talking about the Eurasian steppe a little, and how cozy yurts look to live in. Ever since my Eurasian reading seminar and my Mongol seminar I’ve been really fascinated with the time, place, and people. I’ve always had a thing about horse warriors, hence…

Come live in a yurt with me! I r srs Mongolian, yo.

Oh my gosh I didn’t know that, that is totally cool. I’m jealous of your awesome heritage. Rock on!

berserk-confessions:

There’s a street in my neighborhood called Griffith. Whenever I see it or hear it referenced, I have to chuckle and say “GRIFFITH!”

This person wouldn’t happen to live near a certain city called Berkeley, would they? There’s a street named “Griffith” there and I swear to never go on it.  

Sadly I’m not a resident of Berkeley, but I do live in Beaverton Oregon.

I couldn’t agree more, their relationship is so layered, so like a real relationship. It’s one of the best relationships, if not the best relationship I’ve ever read. They have hard times, they argue, they talk things out together (something that rarely seems to happen in fictional characters relationship), they have seen the best and worst in each other and they still love. I have really cried for them like they were two people I’ve cared for and thought are good for one another in my everyday, that’s some amazing storytelling right there!

huffingtonpost:

“That picture was taken during the Sikh day parade. He was one of the first people I photographed. He’s a computer IT specialist. He travels a lot. Sikhs at the time were being randomly selected for security. I wish people would just say “you have that thing on your hand and we aren’t sure what it is” instead telling someone they are randomly selected. One time he wore the shirt through security and the guard chuckled. It’s a way of loading off steam at the reality that people have to face.

When the tragedy first happened, my heart sunk. A time frame is a time frame. The pictures have been out there. I wasn’t thinking that people need to see this. When I was speaking to the Sikh Coalition, I was thinking this is the perfect time for people to see them because they wouldn’t just see the suffering but see the positive things. I had this vision of how I wanted these pictures to look. I’m not creating a false environment; I want to portray the positive images not in crisis and in mourning. Those types of pictures are important. But I want people to understand the vibrancy of this community.”

This is a great little comic, and the nice things it says about traveling I think are really true. Everyone who travels will be enriched and it opens your eyes to the expanse of the world, and you never see it the same way again, but it’s a good thing.

Hayley ^_^

wutevrz:

This comic has made me legitimately happy, just saying.
