when w. h. auden said “evil is unspectacular and always human” and ursula k. leguin said “this is the great treason of the artist: a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain”
yall better be just as outraged about this as you were about notre dame
I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says ‘Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.’

“Many people seem to think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. And it is true that in winter it is sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say, ‘What do I care if there is a summer; its warmth is no help to me now.’ Yes, evil often seems to surpass good. But then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. One morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. And so I must still have hope.”
— Vincent Van Gogh
@ every white canadian, european, and austrialian who are looking at what is going on in the United States and patting yourselves on the back because ‘it’s not like that here’. It is like that in your country. Anti blackness and police brutality exist in your country just as much as it does the usa. To say otherwise is willful ignorance and turning a blind eye to abuse. Stop pushing your racism out of sight and fucking deal with it
