Had a better doctor’s appointment today, so hooray! Though now I have to use a nasal spray and Zyrtec for the REST OF MY LIFE. Maybe not that much, but enough to keep my ears from hurting like they always do. Plus finally went to the store so I have baby tomatoes, edamame, some healthy soup, some instant coffee, and some popcorn and hot sauce. I am ready for tonight!
Except I found out...

Sooo today, my little sister’s ho of a teacher showed her an article in our town’s paper about an offense that my brother committed – my town is small and for some godawful reason prints criminal proceedings from the local court, because god knows they’re only doing goodwill and letting the community to stay away from these criminals, not humiliating them or anything. In any case, her teacher...

Things I blew my check on this week already:
food dress taxes treats and toys for Yoshi
Yuuup, sorry cell phone bill, maybe next time it’s your turn. Thanks for playing.
The days keep getting shorter, It’s been ten months of winter, It’s been a rough year on everyone, I know. It’s just one thing after another when you truly believe nothing gets better, but I wish that you’d just let it all go.
Political figures who talk a lot about liberty and freedom invariably turn out...

Yoshi had a long training class today. We finally met our classmates, an adorable bark prone Corgi named Sparrow, and a very sweet labradoodle named Dexter. We had class yesterday too, since Yoshi was sick last week with her ear infection and we missed it. We just went over loose leash walking and come and sit though. Todayyyy was a lot. We did down, which was hard for Yoshi since she got bored...

The situation has grown more dire since Assad’s regime began a violent crackdown last March—including reports of hundreds massacred this week.
On February 3, 2012, multiple reports from activists inside Syria described massive shelling and an army offensive in the central Syrian city of Homs. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights puts the casualty figure at over a...
Brown U. student uncovers lost Malcolm X speech →
ladyatheist:
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — The recording was forgotten, and so, too, was the odd twist of history that brought together Malcolm X and a bespectacled Ivy Leaguer fated to become one of America’s top diplomats.
The audiotape of Malcolm X’s 1961 address in Providence might never have surfaced at all if 22-year-old Brown University student Malcolm Burnley hadn’t stumbled across a...

Stars in my eyes every time I see Courtney Marie Andrews. She played Dear Sister. Just kill me. So good. Terribly sad I can’t make it to the Tucson show tomorrow.
It's not a goddamn coincidence that fat women...

I repeat: it’s never about health. It’s never about health. IT’S NEVER ABOUT HEALTH.
It’s about how sexually available you are, because everyone knows if you’re not fuckable, you’re totally worthless.
Yes, I think it was appropriate. It was appropriate for the mood that was in the...
– Arizona State Rep. Cecil Ash honestly suggesting that there be a state holiday to celebrate white people.
Also the fear-mongering of “When White People are a minority” cracks me up. Clearly the real reason racial minorities celebrate their culture in America is because they are a statistical...

So… someone on my Facebook a few days ago said that in cases of pregnancies where there’s a medical issue and it comes down to saving the mother’s life or the unborn child, however far along the pregnancy is, he understands why everyone wants to save the mother’s life, but it pains him.
So… a fetus is more important than a grown woman, a whole, living person. A...

Quinton Flynn is coming to PCC. Plus everyone else from Star Trek, as well as their mothers (this is a bad joke). Excited. Sad I couldn’t make it to the kickoff. Really need to start working on staffing my room. Life is hard.
Oh, and Jon Berthnal! Shane from the Walking Dead. That’s exciting.
