A Chaotic Masterpiece

This is my Tumblr.

There are many like it.
But this one is mine.


My name is Tyler Kianka, and this is my Tumblr/Blog.

*_____________________________*


I've always been one of the quiet ones, usually in the back of the room and avoiding nearly everyone at any cost.
I've always been like this, but throughout the years I've found my way of making friends, sometimes with fellow quiet kids and others with a variety of different people.

I was brought up to be respectful, kind, and courteous.
All of which I am.
Even if you hate them, respect your enemy.

Although I never payed full attention throughout school, I'm no dummy and can honestly say I'm rather smart.

My social anxiety isn't drastic, I can still go to public places, be around crowds of people, but I do have my limits.

*_____________________________*


When your isolated or alone for most of the time you tend to do a lot of thinking as would most likely be assumed.
Sometimes good, others bad, but you observe and learn more regardless of what it may be.

Is it worth it?
To spend so much time thinking, analyzing, dreaming..
I would rather be dead then mind/soul-less.
At least then I wouldn't be monotonous as another sheep in the herd.

*_____________________________*


My imagination, as I can also proudly and honestly say, is very much alive and kicking.

Drawing use to be what I did alot of during school, but I also did a fair amount of writing as well.

Nowadays I hardly draw anymore but continue to write be it my perspective, thoughts, ideas, feelings, or whatever else.

*_____________________________*


I am very philosophical and although I don't know much about or of philosophy, I am as much a philosopher as I am human.

I tend to play devil's advocate a lot and I've learned that sometimes you cant just stay in the middle and have to take a side.

But considering I have trouble making decisions as it is, going with one way or side as oppose to the other/s can be excruciatingly difficult.

*_____________________________*


I have a colorful variety of friends of different personalities, standpoints, views, etc.

All of which I am glad to know and have a relationship with, even when I tend to stray adrift at times.

*_____________________________*


I realize that writing is not just something I can choose to do or avoid, it is apart of who I am.

When speech fails, writing never does.
When actions can not, it can.

It is voice, thought, feeling, idea, passion, view, and so much more all combined.

To write is to breathe, and although I may hold my breath some times, I can never hold it forever.
I must write, because I live.
And perhaps I may even live, to write.

*_____________________________*


But, anyways..
I hope you enjoy what I present and even if you do not so long as I make you think, have you feel, be it good or bad, then I am happy to have done so.
expose-the-light: 20 Things You Didn’t Know About Eclipses 1  The longest total solar eclipse of the century occurred on July 22 over India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. It peaked over the Pacific Ocean, but even there the darkness lasted a mere 6 minutes and 29 seconds. 2  Fast and furious: The moon’s shadow zooms across Earth’s surface at up to 5,000 miles per hour. 3  Canadian astronomer and renowned eclipse chaser J. W. Campbell traveled the world for 50 years trying to see 12 different eclipses. He ran into overcast skies every time. 4  Don’t repeat J. W.’s mistakes: Monsoon season throughout south Asia means that there is a good chance the eclipse this July will be clouded out too. 5  Just before full eclipse, dazzling “Baily’s beads” appear where sunlight shines through valleys on the moon. The last bead creates the impression of a diamond ring in the sky. 6  On eclipse-viewing expeditions, this phenomenon is frequently accompanied by a marriage proposal. 7  The beautiful symmetry of a total solar eclipse happens because—by pure chance—the sun is 400 times larger than the moon but is also 400 times farther from Earth, making the two bodies appear the exact same size in the sky. 8  In case you were thinking about relocating: Earth is the only place in the solar system where that happens. 9  Other planets get other kinds of fun, though. Jupiter can have a triple eclipse, in which three moons cast shadows on the planet simultaneously. The event is easily visible through a backyard telescope. 10  The Chinese word for solar eclipse is shih, meaning “to eat.” In ancient China people traditionally beat drums and banged on pots to scare off the “heavenly dog” believed to be devouring the sun. 11  Then again, China also produced the first known astronomical recordings of solar eclipses, inscribed in pieces of bone and shell called “oracle bones,” from around 1050 B.C. or earlier. 12  By comparing those ancient records with modern calculations of eclipse patterns, scientists have determined that the day is 0.047 second longer today than it was back then. 13  Tidal friction, which causes that lengthening of the day, is also making the moon drift away. In about 600 million years it will appear too small to cover the sun, and there will be no more total solar eclipses. 14  In any given location, a total solar eclipse happens just once every 360 years on average. 15  Luckiest place on Earth Carbondale, Illinois, will beat the odds: Folks there will see an eclipse on August 21, 2017, and again on April 8, 2024. 16  In contrast, everyone on the night side of the world can see a lunar eclipse, where the moon slips into Earth’s shadow. 17  During a total lunar eclipse, the moon takes on a deep reddish hue due to the sunlight filtering through our atmosphere—the cumulative glow of all the world’s sunsets. 18  While stranded in Jamaica, Christopher Columbus was famously saved by the lunar eclipse of February 29, 1504, which he had read about in his almanac. After a fracas with the locals, Columbus warned that the moon would disappear if they did not start supplying his men with food. 19  When the moon vanished, the locals promptly complied, and Columbus breathed a huge sigh of relief: His almanac was calibrated for Germany, and he was not sure that he had adjusted correctly for local time. 20  Who knows—it might be useful to you, too. The next lunar eclipse visible from the United States will take place on December 21, 2010.

1  The longest total solar eclipse of the century occurred on July 22 over India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. It peaked over the Pacific Ocean, but even there the darkness lasted a mere 6 minutes and 29 seconds.

2  Fast and furious: The moon’s shadow zooms across Earth’s surface at up to 5,000 miles per hour.

5  Just before full eclipse, dazzling “Baily’s beads” appear where sunlight shines through valleys on the moon. The last bead creates the impression of a diamond ring in the sky.

6  On eclipse-viewing expeditions, this phenomenon is frequently accompanied by a marriage proposal.

7  The beautiful symmetry of a total solar eclipse happens because—by pure chance—the sun is 400 times larger than the moon but is also 400 times farther from Earth, making the two bodies appear the exact same size in the sky.
