Toronto’s mayor denies smoking crack cocaine in video

The Globe and Mail: Toronto Mayor Rob Ford has denied claims that he was recently filmed smoking crack cocaine.

“It’s just ridiculous,” he said as he left his home and got into his black SUV. “It’s another Toronto Star…”, he said before shutting his car door and driving away.

Mr. Ford’s response comes after online news site Gawker posted a story in which one of its reporters claimed he had viewed a video in which the mayor was clearly seen smoking crack cocaine.

Yup. That’s our Mayor. Total Fucktard.

age-of-awakening:

Language is an expression of magickal power. Thoth the Egyptian god of magickal arts was always portrayed carrying the stylus and papyrus, tools he would use for devising his charms.
It is also pertinent to point out that in Hebrew cosmology the creation of the worlds is atributed to the Word or Logos, the active manifestation of that most holy and mysterious GOD who devised a magickal alphabet composed of 22 letters alongside 10 mystical numbers wherein he hid his splendiferous Knowledge. Language is an expression of magickal power. The etymological interpretation of certain relevant words is an invaluable key for the clear understanding of our subject of study. Hence, to ENCHANT we use CHANTING, to create a SPELL we SPELL names of God and magickal formulas, to invoke and evoke we resort to the GRAMMAR of the medieval GRIMOIRE.

mirror-of-enigmas:

“Existence itself is a malevolent force that wants to destroy you.

Every day you will be attacked and undermined.

Antipathy will shroud you and the world will attempt to bring you down.

It is only when you fight from your core with every ounce of your being to succeed, will life stand back and say, ‘this one is serious, let him through’.

The only way to be successful is by waging war against the desolation of being.

Achieve with fervor.”

- Russell Brand

When things get tough, this is what you should do: Make good art. I’m serious. Husband runs off with a politician — make good art. Leg crushed and then eaten by a mutated boa constrictor — make good art. IRS on your trail — make good art. Cat exploded — make good art. Someone on the Internet thinks what you’re doing is stupid or evil or it’s all been done before — make good art. Probably things will work out somehow, eventually time will take the sting away, and that doesn’t even matter. Do what only you can do best: Make good art. Make it on the bad days, make it on the good days, too.

Make Good Art – Neil Gaiman’s timeless advice on the creative life, adapted by design legend Chip Kidd.

Afro-Cubans and Sierra Leoneans Bridge The Gap in Doc ‘They Are We’

Can a family separated for 170 years by the transatlantic slave trade sing and dance its way back together again? THEY ARE WE tells a story of survival against the odds, and how determination and shared humanity can triumph over the bleakest of histories.
