Poop.
My skinny jeans have a hole in the crotch, bringing me down to 1 pair of regularly wearable jeans.
I hate shopping for pants.
Things I did not realize were a turn-on until...

Newsweek: How Obama's Long Game Will Outsmart His... →
newsweek:
Presenting the first three paragraphs of Andrew Sullivan’s epic takedown of President Barack Obama’s critics, on newsstands & online today.
You hear it everywhere. Democrats are disappointed in the president. Independents have soured even more. Republicans have worked themselves up into an apocalyptic fervor. And, yes, this is not exactly unusual. A president in the last year...

Nothing sets me up for a grumpy day quite like being woken up by my roommate’s bed being fucked into the door that separates our rooms.

“If I had my ideal world I would not allow weapons and atom bombs anymore. I...”
– An excerpt from a poem written by Kim Jong il’s second son Kim Jong Chol in the sixth or seventh grade. The deceased North Korean leader deemed Jong Chol too soft and “feminine” for the job his younger brother just inherited. (via newsweek)

I can feel the layer of dead skin on my casted foot when I curl my toes. It’s like having a sheet of paper pasted to my foot, except it’s part of me, and I’ll have to scrape it off in a week.

Dear Coke Talk: On sex and anthropology. →
dearcoketalk:
It’s really interesting to me. I just learned a lot about evolution and how it affects sex appeal today. I learned it’s actually how women evolved to want to be in a monogamous relationship, or have some sort of stability. When humans first evolved to walking on two legs, there was no place for…

22-Year-Old Woman Punches the Crap Out of Her...
villagevoice:
What would you do if some person came up to you as you minded your own business on the subway platform as you waited for your train and lifted your skirt, rubbed your thigh, and groped you? Would you run away, scream, call the cops, take his picture? Would you be paralyzed and do nothing? Would you punch the shit out of him?

This article was really useful in helping me discern just what it is that I want when a lonely mood hits me. I’m more than happy living in my room alone; it’s the support system that I need to concentrate on developing more fully. This may require me to stop leaving so many people behind every time I relocate myself. It may also require letting more people in. Food for introspective...
