Everything is very real.
Hey tumblr.
I have not come back.

Dear Akihito,
What’s up, man? It has been a while since we last talked. Well, technically, we have never talked because I’ve only posted my letters to you on our blog and never sent them to you personally. Even if I did though, something tells me that you still wouldn’t get them. I’m not saying…

Well, the time is upon us now. I have to prove that I’m cooler than you by showing you what I consider to be the best music released this year. The selection process was very strenuous. I took a shower, managed to put one sock on before I remembered that there was beer in the fridge, and two Red…

Holy fuck, everyone.
This is not only the last official week of 2011, this is the last official week of the Compass as we know it. Everything is changing starting January 1st and boy oh boy, is it going to be awesome.
For this week though, I’m not going to make any promises. Sure, I’ll post…

Deep down in our minds, past all of our education, past all of the roads we’ve driven down, movies we’ve seen, faces of strangers, lies some of our earliest memories. We cannot willingly access this information. It shows up occasionally in dreams. We see rooms that we cannot remember,…

wethecompass:
Hello everyone!
Don’t ask why, don’t ask how, but for some reason, I am in particularly high spirits tonight. My day was average. Another student of mine came back from suspension and was suspended again within the first hour of school. I got a call from my bank saying that my credit card bill is…

Scientists to create a laser that can rip a hole...
iheartchaos:
When the Large Hadron Collider opened, some (stupid) people thought it was a life-ending or universe-ending event. None of that happened, but now scientists are at it again, this time with a laser they’re hoping to use to punch a hole in time and space.

Hi everyone.
Sorry I didn’t post on thursday. I haven’t had the time really and I don’t quite like it yet. It will have to wait for another week. However, I didn’t want to just leave this week with nothing (especially since I woke up in a particularly strange and melancholy mood for no good…

Before I started working where I do now, before I woke up every morning and put on a uniform, before ten-year-olds verbally threatened my life on a weekly basis, before I paid rent, for a few brief weeks this past summer, I had a suitcase of t-shirts, a car, a few friends, no responsibilities, and…

Howdy y’all.
It has been quite some time since we last saw each other. A month, I believe. How are things with you? Things with me are alright. Nothing spectacular. I think I might be going through a funk. I’m not sure though and that is a really strange place to be.
All that being said, I do…

To determine the extent of disaster damage in an...

Mobile emergency Waffle House in coastal NC after Hurricane Irene. Yes really.
In addition to other factors, one of the measures that FEMA uses to determine how bad an area is damaged in a disaster, they look at whether the local Waffle House is still open. Because Waffle House prides themselves on being open 24/7 no matter what, if disaster damage is severe enough that the...

Serious Sam Double D trailer tickles my funny bone
I picked up a copy of Serious Sam Double D on Steam a couple days ago, and it’s a really good game. It’s just as insane as the first 2 Serious Sam games, but in 2d with EXTREME GUNSTACKING TECHNOLOGY! For $7-ish, I don’t think you can get much better. Now, usually, I’m not receptive to advertising at all. But, I have to admit, this...
I didn't forget about you.
I forgot about you. I’m sorry, internet. In all honesty, I have been talking with twitter but it is strictly platonic. Believe me when I say that. Please don’t get angry. Twitter is really nice because it is always around. It is nothing personal. I just feel that you, tumblr, are something that I have to work towards. I feel like I have to impress you and I don’t want to...
