I wont say anything, but im right.

Cant help but feeling i lost out. But my books out tho.

honestyisavirtue:

I forgot how it felt to be intimate

To have someone stare into your eyes and let them bore into your soul

To be naked with someone, without the discarding of clothes

I forgot how it felt to on the chest of another and hear their heart beat against yours while your hands are intertwined

How it…

The closest I have come to God
Is No End Man, who lives within
A wooden box. My father told
That he prevails against odds.

He cannot exit and exist
Because he has no start and end,
And, thus, the box becomes his grave
But he can neither die nor live.

My father said he went to Mars

well, you know how
sometimes you’re on a 
car ride with new friends
desperately trying to fit in
so you try to sing along
to the song on the radio
only you don’t know any
of the words so you’re
left blindly guessing and
hoping that nobody
notices?

yeah, i guess
you could say
that it’s kind of like 
that sometimes.

i have warriors bones

don’t try to eat my body

because your father told you

‘a woman is only grown for you, consume her’

you might not make it out alive.

i have rose acid in my skin

Anti-War Advertising: How To “Unsell The War”

San Francisco (LNS) — Henry Fonda appears on the TV screen:

“When I was a kid, I used to be really proud of this country. I thought that this was a country that cared about people no matter who they were or where they came from. But now, when I see my country engaged in an endless war, a push-button war in which American pilots and electronic technicians are killing thousands of Asians without even seeing who they kill.

“When I see us each week stepping up the tonnage of bombs dropped on Indochina…then I don’t feel so proud any more. Because I thought that was what bad countries did…not my country.”

The Fonda testimonial is one of ten new anti-war television spots in the Help Unsell the War campaign, a project sponsored by Clergy and Laymen Concerned, an ecumenical peace group. Unsell is trying, with some success, to use the advertising industry to help make people more aware of the war. In addition to the TV spots, radio commercials and ads in newspapers and magazines have been produced for the campaign.

The spark for Unsell was struck when a Yale University student named Ira Nerkin saw the CBS television documentary, “The Selling of the Pentagon.” The program showed how the Pentagon spends millions of tax dollars on pro-military propaganda in the mass media. Nerkin felt that the anti-war movement might also be able to use the same media.

He had friends in the advertising industry who put him in touch with people interested in helping out. The ads were ready by the summer of 1971 and Clergy and Laymen Concerned was approached and agreed to sponsor the project.

Clergy and Laymen set up a network of committees around the country which — making use of its status as a church group — approached local stations and papers requesting that the spots be run free of charge as public service advertising. About 25% of those contacted agreed; in some cases where media outlets refused, funds were raised and the ads placed as paid commercials. — Bill Gerson

Gats & Dogs

Joining in on the unanimous fashion boner that Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby has garnered, here’s Menswear Dog’s take on the opulent classic.

The movie itself is more style than substance but that’s perfect for us because we’re not a movie blog. Baz Luhrmann goes over-the-top decadent in this rendition, but makes sure to pay attention to all the little details that make fashion bloggers go gaga. From collar pins to pattern-mixing to masterfully tailored 3-piece rigs; this is less a movie and more a moving mood board for the roaring twenties…and we’re ok with that. It opened nationwide this weekend so check it out.
