How often do you use “fuck you” or hear someone else say “fuck you”? I’m guilty of it, I do it quite often. I’m always spewing out “fuck that!” or “fuck hate!”…

You have no idea when it’s gonna fucking strike. You could wake up with the red sea in your panties. Or have a spot going on at school.

Lol this is pretty much how I feel about Morrissey in nutshell. I always LOL at white hipsters (and white 80s babies) who apeshit over this dude while conveniently forgetting his random racist bullshit.

Real men have rough skin and don’t drink coffee. Cappuccino-drinking Italian men are not real men, their dicks are probably as soft as their moisturised upper lips. Not like the traditional Englishman, who is obviously far less frothy and complicated.
In this feminised society men who act like women are clearly preferred to men...

Real men don’t have emotions, they are not caring and they do not share.

me whining/pleading with my mother
mother: i just don't want to be pressured into going
me: well you're still having fun here... you have loads of friends here. I'm not having fun anymore and I just want to go home.
mother: sometimes it's not all about you
me: i know, i was just hoping for some sort of compromise
mother: a compromise is that we're not staying until the day after tomorrow
me: you said we would leave tomorrow, i have to work the next day and you've known that all along!
i just want to go home
i knew i should have brought my own car.
i’ve had enough and mother doesn’t want to leave tomorrow morning, so I’m stuck here probably all day tomorrow too. what mother doesn’t want to do, doesn’t happen.
i need my own space. i’m sick of feeling rejected when people walk away when i’m talking, when they talk over me when i’m talking, when they...

I fell asleep halfway through reading this. just kidding! I’m sure you’re not boring, maybe you’re just quiet? us quiet people tend to be ignored more often than not :/
I think I am quiet. I am certainly introverted. This happens to me quite a lot.
it still makes me feel like shit :(
I just love it when people walk away while I’m talking. Gives me the warm fuzzies.
Am I that fucking boring?

bechdel test: runnaways & get him to the greek
runnaways - pass, but surprisingly not as well as one would expect for a movie about a girl band. much of the dialogue was with men - mainly kim fowley. the messages I got about women in this movie were - you want to be successful? be like a man, and appeal to men (mainly sexually). and that women can only be successful if they have a man tell them how to do it. Also - women can be just as punk...

has actually been a pretty good day. had some good conversations about the ethics of eating meat, ethics in general, gender, the bechdel test… played banana grams - a very fun game. listened to some bad christmas songs. listened to some awesome joni mitchell, beth orton, johnny cash, nick drake… ate A LOT of wonderful vegetarian food (and no one was judgemental about the vegetarians OR...
the christmas anxiety has set in
a whole bunch of people just arrived and my heart rate is souring.
actually, i’m feeling my pulse now and i think i’ve gone into atrial fibrilation. when i got my iud the nurse felt my pulse and thought i had it then… feeling it now, i would not be surprised at all. weird.
having a short break from all the people and i’ll be ok again. yuck.

One thing that really struck me in the anthology is the amount of racism that happens within sex work, even in places like Europe where it’s not as criminalised or stigmatised. If you’re not white or pretty-bodied, good luck getting hired by more upper-class places - but mostly, good luck trying not to get into jail. Many of the contributors talked about how Black and Latina sex...

i kind of went into this one knowing it would never be a favourite. it was just something to do, so i went along with my father and brother to it.
there are two female characters in this movie who have names. Both characters are entirely without depth, and purely there to further the plot of the two main guys. They don’t speak to each other.
