'partner'
was one of my daughters spelling words.
when she and I were going over it, I mentioned that it’s a term some people use to describe their mate- like a spouse, someone they love and are very committed to, and, that it’s often the term used for people who are both boys or both girls and love one another and want to be together like mom and dad are. (this is how I talk to her about...
On relativists
indefensible:
Pick a side you fence-sitting arseholes. Damn.
one of the things I think is most misunderstood by right-wing fundamentalists (just one thing…out of many, many, many things) is that they believe anyone not like them- ie, people who don’t believe there’s only ONE way to Jesus/Heaven/God- are moral relativists. this usually just gets shortened to...
Sometime I like to click things.
There are so many features of various websites I use that I don’t ever explore. This is equal parts me being lazy, and me being too busy (read: apathetic).
So, I just clicked on this for the first time:
And OMG MY EYES.
Seriously tumblr? The best way to showcase shit is to border on antagonising Epileptics?

These make me very proud of myself.
American News is written for Americans.
I’d explain that title, but I think this does it better.
Notice anything?
From USA TODAY:
Scientists seek origins of obesity in the womb
When Kathy Perusse had weight-loss surgery and shed 120 pounds, she may have done more than make her own life easier.

wet days when the sun is out, and walking in the warmth while soaking wet and drippy hair, feeling alive
ivy, never forgotten, in my heart on a shelf that I visit too often, only to be reminded he will always only be there, and never here

Keep it Classy, Lafayette!
by Amy Wunderlik
It happens every weekend. You’ve probably seen it. There are even entire video series created around it. It’s the phenomenon of the drunk, straight girl-on-straight girl public hook-up. Admittedly, while I’m all for sexual expression, there is one issue I take with this sort of behaviour: from what I can tell, the majority of these girls aren’t slipping...
I wish that we could talk about it, but there,...
it doesn’t matter than it’s been 2 years. it doesn’t matter. I always thought that time heals, you know? it doesn’t. it keeps you busy, it moves life forward, but the hole left doesn’t grow smaller. and nothing ever fits. death became real when I saw your name in marble.

that marble felt like the...

Susan, bacon service
Hi, How are you doing tonight? Good, good. Whom am I speaking with? Susan? Susan! How are you doing tonight, Susan? Great, Listen, Susan, I want to order something, I can’t remember what it’s called, but it’s on the last page of the menu, those blueberry nut pancakes? YES! Fabulous, thank you. Two orders. Also, bacon. How much bacon comes with that? None? Oh. Oh. Ok, well, listen...
how to pick up the astronaut of your dreams →
“You are going to have to apply for college or university somewhere. Astronauts generally don’t like to date stupid people. This isn’t to say that if you aren’t the brightest they won’t be interested in you. They still may be. Especially if you are a stripper. Astronauts love strippers. I also don’t mean to imply that strippers aren’t intelligent. We all...
