– Mary Vargas, “The Meaning and Value of Mercy” (via Feministe)
Reblogging not to tug at your heartstrings (though this certainly is a sad and moving story) but because this woman so eloquently refutes the pro-life assumption that people who are pro-choice are cavalier or unfeeling about getting an...

Time for bed
Finished writing a rough draft of a Sylvia chapter. The worst part of writing on my bed is how sore my knees get from sitting cross-legged for so long.
I should sleep now, since I have to be up early-ish to shower and get over to Brittany’s house to teach her mother econ.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire drinking game:
kitten-guts:
Every time Harry needlessly puts himself in danger, take a drink.
Every time the central conflict could have been avoided by pure common sense, take a drink.
Doesn’t this kind of work for every Harry Potter book…?

I think Brittany has a devil’s contract on you.
Either that or I’m just really bad at saying no/making up excuses.

Somehow I’ve just been roped into helping my friend Brittany’s mom with her college econ class homework tomorrow morning.
Someone please explain this to me.

Something I really like about The Monstrumologist series is the author’s commitment to upholding the premise of the books, which is that he has been given a set of journals belonging to a man named Will Henry, and has taken on the task of editing their rather terrifying and mysterious contents. A lot of authors will write “journal form” books and make it clear that they have made...

I think the English language should just stop resisting and make us its emperors. And I wasn’t a conceited doucheface. NOT AT ALL. (I honestly don’t understand why I’m not dead. If there is any god in the universe, he...

I’m trying to remember who I lent my copy of Going Bovine to, because I really want to reread it soon.
This is why I keep telling myself to have a list of all the books I loan out and who has them.
After careful consideration, including a review of my recommendation, the...

Yeah, pretty much.
At one time.
I swear, the next time I see a TV show or a movie or a comic or an acid-tripping duck use that line, I am going to hit the responsible party with a refrigerator. See, yeah, humans only use 10% of their brain’s capacity, but that’s only at a single given moment….
Actually, from what I’ve learned, that entire concept is completely...

Things people say that bother me
1: “What doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger.”
Not only does this sound stupid, it fails to motivate anyone. Just stop. Nobody wants to hear it. You’d sound wiser quoting a fortune cookie.
2: “I dislike our President; he’s doing so many terrible things for the country.”
Let’s have a rudimentary government lesson kids. Who makes the...

Things I learned tonight from Glee
When teenagers drink, it leads to:
loudness
excessive making out
spontaneous heterosexuality
impromptu duets
When adults drink, it leads to:
more loudness
more impromptu duets
stumbling
casual “I love you man” kisses
fail drunk-dialing
Very educational.

I completely forgot that Glee was on tonight
Without school to keep me grounded, I’ll never be able to keep track of the days of the week.
Gonna go watch that now.

I have this strange craving for QT coffee and a trip to the park.
Probably cause I just talked to Alex, and that’s all he and I ever do when we hang out.

Gaybie Hawkins Dance
So, back at the beginning of the school year, Erin and I got in contact with the Presidents of Sprayberry’s GSA. They wanted to get together a group of leaders from other GSAs and plan something like a party or dance. I liked the idea, but I was skeptical. A few months and a lot of planning meetings later, MAQAT (Metro Atlanta Queer and Allied Teens) finalized plans for a dance.
It was...
