Guys I will not be posting tomorrow. I will be joining the protest on December 17th by not logging in to tumblr. It will be the first day I have ever really skipped here. It’s been almost 7 years since I started this blog and that’s a long time. I am about a dozen picks short of my 2500th pick actually. But I will not post tomorrow. And I am not sure I am coming back Tuesday. We’ll see how I feel. Tumblr has left me feeling deflated. So this could be it and it feels appropriate that I am posting someone for the first time with what could be my final post. It’s appropriate because I haven’t forced anything, I am posting who I am posting. I haven’t betrayed my initial mission here. But it’s also appropriate because there is always something new over the horizon. Every ending is a beginning and if this blog is done it’s done but there are new things in the future for all of us. A few of you have reached out with kind words to tell me my blog meant something to you and I really appreciate it. I wrote this for myself but it’s always nice to know someone else cared. I guess any creative endevour demands to be shared in some way and it’s nice to know it resonated with someone. I know a lot of you are leaving tumblr after this and I know a lot of you are down about it. I get it. If I can leave you with advice it is to try and find the beauty in all things. Not in a Pollyanna way but because there is beauty out there to behold. And there is beauty you can create. The world can be dark and lonely at times. It can feel oppressive and I know people will try to drag each and everyone of you down. It will be tempting to retaliate, to turn bitter, to turn angry. Please don’t. Cynicism is lazy and easy and it means they have won because it makes the world a darker place. Be better. You can add beauty to this world just by being decent to one another. It can be hard but the small impacts you make in the lives of others are how we really can make the world a better place. Always remember you are dealing with human beings and if you can make their life a little better with your actions then we all have won. So if you step away from tumblr try to remember the good it brought. I rue it’s end but I savor the joy it brought me. Now, April Gloria is getting posted cause why not. I like her cosplay. She is pretty. She is probably best known for her ability to look almost exactly like Taylor Swift when she wants to. She actually only sorta looks like Taylor Swift in general but through the female sorcery known as hair and make up she can close the gap to looking strikingly like Taylor Swift. The media has long been fascinated by this and I get why. I even remember once an angry post about fake metal fans because Taylor Swift was wearing a band t-shirt and they knew she didn’t listen to metal. Apparently among metal fans they think this is a real issue. People co-opting metal culture. Bad news metal guys, metal hasn’t been mainstream cool enough for pop stars to want to get their metal cred in a really, really long time. Anyway, it was not Taylor Swift, it was April Gloria. It is the kind of thing that is entertaining and pops up on the internet now and again. I happen to be a fan of her Mara Jade cause I am old enough to have once sorta crushed on Mara Jade. True fact. I apprecaite all my followers and whatever happens thank you for joining me on my journey. Today I want to fuck April Gloria.
