The Way We Live Now - Going Offline in Search of Freedom
sds:
(via bellatoris)
The concluding paragraph:
I’m not wishing the Internet away. It has become so integral to my work — to my life — that I honestly can’t recall what I did without it. But it has allowed us to reflexively indulge every passing interest, to expect answers to every fleeting question, to believe that if we search long enough, surf a little further, we can hit the dry land of knowing “everything that happens” and that such knowledge is both possible and desirable. In the end, though, there is just more sea, and as alluring as we can find the perpetual pursuit of little thoughts, the net result may only be to prevent us from forming the big ones.
Yes, yes, three times yes. That, among other reasons, is why I’ve been gone for a while.
Thoughtful thought indeed.

GIBRALTAR AIRPORT
Gibraltar Airport (which is not part of Spain as a lot of readers pointed out) is a very unusual airport. To my knowledge, it is the only one where the runway actually intersects with a major highway. When a plane has to take off or land, traffic is shut down.

Hmm, I’m guessing they don’t get a lot of plane traffic?

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, interpreted by BNL and Sarah McLachlan. (via christmasmusic, via onemoretimewithfeeling)
Just seconds into this track, I was snapping my fingers and bopping along. It transitions into We Three Kings, but is truncated before getting too far into that song. The full track from the album includes it, but itself ends abruptly, probably part of a gapless transition to the next track.

Here’s a somewhat eerie, but still calming, version of Silent Night. It’s an a cappella version by Priscilla Ahn. (via christmasmusic)
