a star trek au where everything is exactly the same except spock is wearing booty shorts
My tattoo is finally healed and I couldn’t be happier with it. It means a lot to me -as all my others- and I am glad to have it on my body forever. The drawing was designed by me and my tattoo artist, Roger Marx, in São Paulo, Brazil.
if you ever think mythology is boring or serious business or whatever shit
just remember that cerberus, the hell-hound and guard dog of the underworld, comes from the root indo-european word ḱerberos, which evolved into the greek word kerberos, which got changed to cerberus when it went from greek to latin
ḱerberos means “spotted”
that’s right
hades, lord of the dead, literally fucking named his pet dog spot
Every once in a while — often when we least expect it — we encounter someone more courageous, someone who choose to strive for that which (to us) seemed unrealistically unattainable, even elusive. And we marvel. We swoon. We gape. Often , we are in awe. I think we look at these people as lucky, when in fact, luck has nothing to do with it. It is really about the strength of their imagination; it is about how they constructed the possibilities for their Life. In short, unlike me, they didn’t determine what was impossible before it was even possible.Fail Safe – Debbie Millman’s fantastic illustrated essay of timeless advice on courage and the creative life.

[[MORE]]the truth of the matter is that kirk and spock can’t be separated into distinct colors any more than you could untangle their entwined souls.
the blue will always be spock’s domain first - his science blues, his cool-calm-collected demeanor reminiscent of classic vulcan. this is nu-spock. the brighter, more upbeat - new possibilities for future, surrounded by chrome plating and flashy lights, harbingers of peace and space pioneers. it is not rebirth because spock doesn’t represent recreation: he is the solid rock in berth or traveling alongside, steady and yet cleverly flexible as the water-like metaphors would allow.
jim shares in the blue because he shares in spock. jim could be all the colors in the rainbow with strong notes like mountains in a landscape, drawing the eye despite the whole composition requiring all components to simply be. blue is jim’s eyes, jim’s determination, jim’s command when faced with a seemingly no-win scenario: red doesn’t get him through those. blue is the color jim turns when he’s arguing with spock (past red in the face), when spock’s fingers are around his neck after manipulating his sorrow, his fingers before spock prime finds him on delta vega. blue are the emotions he feels from transference, the repressed memories of a core blazing with a fire that both gives and takes, the color of what was 70% of home back on terran. it’s the inner tranquility or trance state he can tap into to display the controlled gale force of nature that resides inside him.
jim and blue go together like jim and spock: complementary, necessary to highlight other features. just as there is no dark without light, no wildness without seriousness, there is no reason without contrast.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/ba08933e3de3c1972b407f7210fac959/tumblr_mmmuqohe621qzzelmo1_500.png)
