"Moonbeam City Theme" by Night Club, off of the soundtrack for the 2015 Comedy Central show, "Moonbeam City"

This show is all kinds of beautiful… Lazers… Sexy Synths… Lazers… Patrick Nagel character designs… LAZERS~ 💙

Retrospective Note 2022: Well, the show only lasted for one season. From the get go, it aired right after South Park, which at that point, is hella late at night, which is a dead zone for any show (unless of course your show is on Adult Swim). It's too bad really. It had a great concept, a stunning look, a solid cast, and a banger soundtrack. The last few episodes weren't nearly as funny as the rest, but I loved it for what it was. Thanks past Jason for buying the series through iTunes. I'm gonna have to give this show another watch.

"Do You Hear the People Sing?" off of the soundtrack for the 2012 Universal film, "Les Misérables"

When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes~ 💙

For prayers to work, you need to do more than speak, you need to take action. Go beyond the statuses and profile pictures. Take up your sword. Strap on your faith. Take it to the streets. Be the change you want to see in this world. For your community. For Paris. For the world.

Retrospective Note 2022: For context, this was in response to the 2015 bombing in Paris, France. There were many a Facebook post and profile picture change standing in solidarity with those suffering in Paris, but I could tell these attempts at sympathy were hollow. They think a prayer will wash away the pain in this world, but it takes more than that. God literally put us here on this Earth to serve, and not to sit back on our phones and type empty phrases of love and care while the rest of the world, hell even while the rest of their OWN communities, suffer. We could be that very answer to our own prayers, but we're too passive to even consider that we should take action of our own. Now obviously it's not a BAD thing to be posting words of solidarity and what not, but it's about the heart of it that matters. Are you just saying it to make YOU look good as you go back to being a hypocrite, or are you saying it, and then making a difference through your ACTIONS? Prayer should lead us to what we need to do or say. I'd be redundant if I repeated what I wrote above this retrospective note, so I'll just say that now's a good time to read that part again.
