and he leaves the springs behind.
sometimes I remember things I’ve done and then I shudder or wince and quickly remember why I needed to end it/cut it out of my life/move on. While I guess they’ll always have (and be) a part of me (sometimes some experiences more than others), but in the end, I’m always so confident in my decisions.

A bunch of my good buds are putting out truly phenomenal new albums in the first quarter of this year. I couldn’t be more excited for folks to hear these gorgeous records. Life-changing music by people who have changed my life. Besides all that they all have amazing, beautiful, classic album covers. Good work everyone!! 2012 is gonna be a good one!
A lot of white people like black people. They buy hip-hop, they watch black athletic and sports figures and it’s super popular — from jazz through hip-hop. Having a black friend is a mark of progressive success as a white person. And the black person is usually seen as their asset. It’s like: I’m cooler by proxy.

Esquire: Is the poster for the new season of Mad Men a desecration? Or just how we continue to reckon with 9/11?
Mad Men Season 5 Poster Controversy - Falling (Mad) Man, by Tom Junod
Yeah, and I think this is how we should count to 20 from now on :
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 10 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
People need to stop treating 9/11 like it’s some sort of religion. It was an incredibly sad event and an important one too but damn, people, quit fetishizing it. It’s a poster of a guy falling. Move on.
I keep coming back to this.

Leslie McDonald does his “Jump Around” dance prior to the Tar Heels’ tip off against Georgia Tech.
Torn ACLs may prevent them from ballin’ but Lez and Dex have decided to take up dancing instead.
