Be alone. Eat alone, take yourself on dates, sleep alone. In the midst of this you will learn about yourself. You will grow, you will figure out what inspires you, you will curate your own dreams, your own beliefs, your own stunning clarity, and when you do meet the person who makes your cells dance, you will be sure of it, because you are sure of yourself.

Irish politician Aodhán Ó Ríordáin (TD, Labour Party Senator) calls out the Irish government on their reaction to election of Donald Trump.

“TRUMP IS A FASCIST AND I’M EMBARRASSED BY THE GOVERNMENT’S RESPONSE.”

THERE IS A PETITION TO STOP THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE FROM VOTING FOR TRUMP

For those of you who don’t know, the Electoral College has the final say in December. It’s only happened once or twice, but sometimes they vote against a candidate who’s already “won”. Candidates can win the popular election and still lose the electoral college’s election. THIS IS OUR LAST SLIVER OF A CHANCE TO KEEP BUTT TRUMPET OUT OF OFFICE!

There’s been multitudes of posts going around, talking about fighting back, never giving up, doing what’s right.

ITS TIME TO WALK THE WALK:

It’s not just Trump.

It’s Trump with a Republican House.

It’s Trump with a Republican Senate.

It’s Trump with anywhere from 1-3 Supreme Court nominees.

It’s Trump with all three branches of government on his side and no one to hold him back

That is what we’re facing.

Studio Ghibli Color Designer Michiyo Yasuda, has passed away. :’(

Michiyo Yasuda, long time animator & color designer of Studio Ghibli passed away 

Japan’s Mainichi has reported on the death of long time color designer and the chief of the ink and paint division of Studio Ghibli Michiyo Yasuda, who passed away of an undisclosed illness on October 5 at the age of 77. Yasuda started working at Toei Dogo before she was 20 and joined Studio Ghibli co-founders Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki on the 1968 anime feature Horus, Prince of the Sun aka the Little Norse Prince.

Yasuda later worked on Miyazaki’s ‘78 TV anime Future Boy Conan, pre-Ghibli feature Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, and Studio Ghibli’s features such as Hayao Miyazaki’s My Neighbor Totoro,  Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle and Ponyo, as well as Isao Takahata works like Grave of the Fireflies. 

While Yasuda officially retried after Studio Ghibli released Ponyo in 2008, she came back in 2013 for Miyazaki's “final feature” The Wind Rises. Yasuda won an Animation Lifetime Achievement Award in 2011 from the Japan Movie Critics Awards.

Her career spanned over five decades, beginning as a tracer for animation before shifting into color work. She was present at the inception of Studio Ghibli, and continued to run the Color Department until her retirement following PONYO in 2008. Then returned to work for The Wind Rises.

Cause she basically has worked on EVERYTHING and created amazing worlds. for us to watch & live in…. http://www.indiewire.com/2016/10/michiyo-yasuda-dead-studio-ghibli-hayao-miyazaki-1201735490/  http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2016/10/11-1/long-time-studio-ghibli-color-designer-michiyo-yasuda-passes-away http://goboiano.com/news/5251-ghibli%2527s-legendary-color-designer-michiyo-yasuda-passes-away-at-77 http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=1700
