Frowzy Indulgences

"I ain't got no culture, nothing. Dirty words, but that don't count."

Historical Indulgences
Decorative Indulgences
Heck Yes Americana
Fuck Yeah American Art

Most often, remain silent.
Or else only say
what is necessary, and in a few words.

—Epictetus (via portionsofeternity)

Oh jesus, Netflix. You have to suggest a BBC ~1860’s NYC period drama just as I’m trying to finish out the semester?

victusinveritas: “At any point whatsoever the desert constantly imposes the thought of its infinity, as it does of the infinite number of grains of which it is composed. One understands that monotheism was born among people who spent days and days walking in the desert, never seeing anything but sand.”-Italo Calvino(Pictured: Ruins of Ani, Turkey)

stfuconservatives: smdxn: Eliz. Warren wants to cut student interest rates to near zero Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has introduced her first piece of legislation. It’s called the Bank on Students Loan Fairness Act, and would reduce the rate students pay on federally-subsidized student loans for one year, from 3.4% to 0.75%. Without congressional action, on July 1 the rate is set to double from 3.4% to 6.8%. Warren brings up an interesting point – her bill simply asks students to pay the same rates that big banks pay for borrowing. She’s literally just asking if college grads can get the same deal as bank CEOs. The exact same interest rate. Not even a bailout or anything fancy (pipe dreams!) - just the same interest rate.
