Buy ALL the girl scout cookies.

none of the cookies are gluten-free so i won’t be buying any, but i encourage y’all to make a donation to a troop, particularly the ones in colorado that have openly voiced support for transgender youth! (also i hear some varieties of the cookies are vegan this year, make sure to check the ingredients!)

GOOOOOOO GIRL SCOUTS!

I might be commissioned to do illustrations for one of their training manuals, fingers crossed so hard now!!!!!!!!!

This is awesome and I also read that they have vegan options! From Peta Prime (sorry): “The following five options are vegan: Thanks-A-Lot, Shout Outs!, Lemonades, Daisy Go Rounds, and Peanut Butter Patties.”

Holy Shit, I had no idea Girl Scouts was such an awesome organization!

I was a Girl Scout for like 12 years. This is great.

“A little philosophy inclineth man’s mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men’s minds about to religion.”

Francis Bacon, “On Atheism”

“When Bacon penned the sage epigram…he forgot to add that the God to whom depth in philosophy brings back men’s minds is far from being the same from whom a little philosophy estranges them.”

George Santayana, Reason in Religion

I was at an event for work Wednesday night where I learned the Tamil phrase in the title: “Poeytu Veren.” It means, “You go and then you come back.” You go out into the world and then you return to the relationships that matter that you. I like thinking of it as the “glass half full” version of “Always Leaving” by Spoonboy. Instead of thinking, “Man, I always have to leave people I love,” thinking, “It’s so great that I am always going back to OTHER people I love!”Not focusing on how I’m leaving Jer when I visit my friend in WV, but on how I’m coming back to those friends. Not being sad when I leave my friends at fest, but being happy that I came back to them again and that I am coming back to my friends in CA. Constantly coming back. I like it. :)
