Almost got hit by an asshole coming to school...
He turned into my lane and almost side-swiped my whole car. I honked, he flipped me off and was yelling at me out his car window, as if it were my fault. I thought he was going to get out of his car at a red light. I’m still shaking.

I just got an email from a woman who apparently lives across town from me who has the exact same name as me. Spelled the same, first and last name. What a strange, small world. She found out by visiting her niece’s school, which I’m assuming is in my high school’s district, because I (who they thought was her) was in the system. And she found my email via my grad school website...

Oh look, another straight white guy saying how “unimportant” it is that Jason Collins is now the first openly gay NBA player. Because representation doesn’t matter unless you’re a straight white dude, right?

(tw: ednos) also, reading all the background for my thesis is some real scary shit.  example. anorexigens (appetite-reducing drugs): in case they weren’t dangerous enough in terms of over-using and abusing to lose weight quickly and unsafely, the reason why fen-fen and other anorexigens were removed from the market in the late 90s/early 00s, was because they can cause increased pressure in...

BFF: Grandmother I need to talk to you
Grandma: [concerned voice] What? What is it? Are you sick?
BFF: No, no. Grandma. I'm gay.
Grandma: What?
BFF: I'm gay Grandma. I have a girlfriend now.

neoafrican: 1. There is such a thing as a “real” woman and she is defined by “having curves,” which is not to be confused with “being fat,” and if you fall too far outside of that particular bell curve, you do not count as a “real” woman. 2. There is something inherently wrong with you if you have slept with a certain number of people, and it must be the result of some former trauma or...
