Major pet peeve...
peckinpah:
sammistarrdust:
When shows/movies play suspenseful music during a non-suspenseful scene.
When shows/movies use contemporary indie/alt pop-rock music for montages showing several characters having “private moments.”
This is one of several dozen pet peeves I have regarding sound design and editing…
or they’re—as George Carlin might describe them—major psychotic hatreds…
OMG!...

I just want to record my feelings about The L Word...
I am only on the fourth episode. I know nothing about future seasons so these are just my initial reactions.
I hate Shane. Sure shes hot, but its all so fake. Shes always like “Sexy low voice snarky comment” and I am like…wut? Also I hate the way she walks. She looks like Mick Jagger and walks like Jack Skellington. If I met someone like that I would not sleep with them because...

Food you like is food that feels good. | The Fat... →
novazembla:
One of my most scandalous messages is that you should eat whatever you want, in whatever amount you want.
What scandalizes me is how people often interpret this message. Over and over again, this is how people respond:
“I can’t do that because I would eat cake 24/7.”
“But you’d overeat all the time!”
“I’d eat such an unbalanced diet I’d make myself sick.”
And I can only figure...

Dyke night →
Are any of my Boston followers going to this? You should because I am going to be there :).
I just got home from working the morning shift.
It was a great shift. I was beaming all morning and I had my usual coffee and tiramisu. Some friends came in to visit and we chatted. I was finishing up my prep work and I went down into the basement to restock and apparently the guy had just been mopping the stairs because they were wet and I was wearing chucks so…yeah the obvious happened. My hands were full so I couldn’t even really...
peckinpah asked: Congrats on the engagement!
sometimeswordsfailyou asked: Thank you for your kind words.
and congrats on the engagement =D
and congrats on the engagement =D
I am off to bed.
I have to think about this for a second…do engaged people take their ring off before they go to sleep? Probably not right?
(I re-watched the wedding dress episode of friends bahaha)

Today worked out well in so many ways.
Soo a third waitress came in tonight so I got to go home. I had some really fun tables before I left though, they kept me laughing. So my bad mood is gone.
I get home and I become determined to fix my cd drive on my computer so Andie’s plan can work. I updated all the drivers and blahblah, I opened it up “oh its so dusty”, I blow on the thing and WOW LOOK IT WORKS THAT WAS ALL I...
My day started off crappy.
And I cant get out of this mood.
Now I have to go to work and smile!

The House GOP's Plan to Redefine Rape →
erin-tc:
For years, federal laws restricting the use of government funds to pay for abortions have included exemptions for pregnancies resulting from rape or incest. (Another exemption covers pregnancies that could endanger the life of the woman.) But the “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act,” a bill with 173 mostly Republican co-sponsors that House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) has...

The study, published by the New England Journal of Medicine, examined the health records of 85,000 women with no previous record of mental health problems who first trimester...

The box came.
If I get out of work early, I can open it tonight :D. This is looking promising because it snowed a ton yesterday and there is no football this week so it will probably be slow. I am resisting to urge to squeeze and shake and poke it. I had to stop Jim (my letter carrier) from explaining to me the origins of the package as he is wont to do. He was trying to talk me into opening it but I rrrreallly...
I just have to say that I love my boyfriend.
I am so happy with my relationship and my life right now. I feel secure and confident and calm, like I have found the answer to some burning question. Either today or tomorrow (Andie is the one who remembers the dates) we will have been together for 5 months. Seems more like years. I am soo happy…just soo happy.
Sure I miss her every day and I ache and its hard and some nights I just get...

Get called a bleeding heart liberal on facebook.
Realize you don’t give a fuck.
There are a few things that I stand by in the world and one of those things is my hatred of ableism. If you say something ableist on facebook I am going to call you out on it. “They should have thought about that before they did drugs”, “I have to pay for the lame and lazy now too”. Some people can only see out of their own eyes and...

It’s official: disabled people aren’t allowed to be independent. This week, amid rows about how this country treats people with disabilities, it was announced that the government will be phasing out the Independent Living Fund (ILF), a vital stipend that allows more than 21,000 “severely disabled people to pay for help so they can live independently”....

I just have to wait for a box and then all will be known. I really wish it would have come today because I work tomorrow and Friday night and wont be able to figure all this out until Saturday. There is a c.d. and a letter and instructions, it is really driving me mad to have a letter from her that I can’t open. I am so completely in the dark here…this plan is so elaborate and I...
