Parental Control.

Makes me laugh. People are funny. But anyway, this kind of made my day:

This is power. This is bravery. I don't see power portrayed as your typical CEO in a suit, or a dictator packing his gun. I think this man, whatever happened to him, in this moment transcends the lines of conventional force. He's standing up to something so much bigger than himself, and you are just waiting for him to be defeated, his defiance quashed - but his influence in those few seconds is incredible. It takes real strength to go against not just an idea you disagree with, but the embodiment of it in a physical TANK form. This guy is a genuine badass. I wish I could do that?

On a side note, Tasha doesn't hate me? Even though, you know, here's me telling her to do the exact opposite of what I just admired. Just for future reference, I suck at consolation. A lot. My comforting is pessimistic wrapped up in pretty words, hoping that maybe facing reality will hurt a little less if I say it nicely. Oh well. I guess I can't be the person that is all hugs and Iloveyou's. I'm the one that tells you not to love. Oh well, maybe she can do the opposite and learn? Fuck it. This was my response to her blog about her breakup.

"But some people do break your heart. Some people do hurt you. Don't fall in love with people. Don't put your trust in something that you can't control. If you have to love, love something static, something that you can count on to stay the same. Fall in love with beauty. Love the ocean's tide or the sunrise, they happen every single day. They might look a little different, but they're never going to completely change. Sometimes, they might bring hurricanes, or acid rain. Disaster. But you can always trust that they'll go back to waves and sleepy pink clouds."

Not. Comforting.

I liked this idea though!
