Random post about my hair because it's in weird...
When people tell me, “Yay! You’re letting your hair grow out!”
I tend to think, “Fuck you.” And then want them to walk away forever after I punch them in the groin.
Because
1. It implies there is some sort of reason that I need to let it grow out. Namely that I don’t look “good” with it short or that I don’t look good enough to suit your...

DailyNK reports that four North Korean party officials were murdered in Cheongjin during the public mourning period for Kim Jong-il. The four included two officials from the People’s Safety Agency, one from prosecutor’s office and one from the provincial National Security Agency. The DailyNK’s…

13-year-old self-aborts using pencil →

The girl had no legal access to abortion in Pennsylvania, where her parents must consent. This is the direct consequence of anti-choice zealots: taking away what dignity, respect, and alternatives left were left to a 13 year old who is being controlled, manipulated, and raped by someone more than twice her age. Way to go “pro-lifers”, what an awesome...

The exercise was to teach white people/white passing people about the daily racism that POC face by putting them in a position to be discriminated against constantly. This was the point of the “A Class Divided” exercise.

So I’ve been a mentor for the Korean students on campus ever since I got back and basically it means I drive them around and translate their Konglish to the shop keepers when they’re trying to purchase phones etc. etc. lol
But anyway, the point is that Korea has shitty lasagna.
So when BoHee told me she wanted to cook delicious food, I suggested we make some real, cheesy, meaty,...

Ford Prefect: Your God person puts an apple tree in the middle of a garden and says, do what you like guys, oh, but don't eat the apple. Surprise surprise, they eat it and he leaps out from behind a bush shouting, 'Gotcha.' It wouldn't have made any difference if they hadn't eaten it.
Arthur Dent: Why not?
Ford Prefect: Because if you're dealing with somebody who has the sort of mentality which likes leaving hats on the pavement with bricks under them you know perfectly well they won't give up. They'll get you in the end.
