I have 14 drafts. Just waiting.
All of them accumulated thusly:
“I AM SO ABOUT TO BLOG ABOUT THE ISSUE OF GAY MARRIAGE/SEXISM/FRIEND ZONE/VICTIM BLAMING/RAPE CULTURE/HOW ANGRY I AM ABOUT THIS PERSON.”
“Wow, this is such a quality blog post. I could keep writing it for hours.”
“Hmm, it’s getting pretty long. I should read it over.”
“Wow, this really opened up a can of worms....

A friend of some of my friends killed himself a...
I never met him, but talked to several of my friends about it when it happened. He went to my old school, so all my facebook friends from middle school knew him and are posting about him.
I know I never met him, but it makes me really sad all the same. Especially having just read The Fault in our Stars (which, by the way, I recommend to my friends.) I’m reading all these posts about him on...

How did Harry Potter not even get nominated for best editing when leaving everything out was the only thing they actually put some effort into

Pet Peeve:
I just saw an article titled “Scientists create healthier chips without losing any flavor.” I read the article, which said they had done research that suggested that hypothetically one could create chips with less salt without losing any flavor.
I HATE when journalists pretend like discovering how something might hypothetically be possible is the same as creating a market-ready...
I'm doing an exercise in my Spanish workbook about...
One of the exercises was titled “Which pronoun is appropriate?” And I got so excited because I thought it was about the use of pronouns with trans* people, but it’s actually about using pronouns in Spanish… Ah well.

I'm so frustrated by the apparent lack of Detroit...
So this is a shoutout, especially to Wayne State students. Are there any:
Whovians?
Potterheads?
Sherlock fans?
Nerdfighters?
Generally cool people?
… at Wayne State or in the metro detroit area? I really want to make a Harry Potter Alliance chapter or something at Wayne state. But I haven’t found a single nerdfighter at Wayne State yet… It makes me so sad. Anyone? Message...

Quickly, John, what happens to the primary xylem in a woody eudicot stem? Stop talking. I need to go to my mind palace.
What phylum of fungi has zygosporangium?… Oh, it must be so boring in your funny little heads… Zygomycota. OBVIOUSLY.
Anderson, do you REALLY think the leafy portions of mosses are true leaves? Stop talking, you’re lowering the IQ of the entire street.

Woman: Can I have birth control?
Government: No.
Woman: I got pregnant because I didn't have birth control and I don't want the fetus. Can I have an abortion?
Government: No.
Woman: I gave birth to my child but since I wasn't expecting it, I can't afford daycare. Can I have help paying for it?
Government: No.

Shanna liveblogs glee (no major spoilers)
Why is Kurt praying? It’s like they’re trying to say, eventually EVERYONE comes around! They let him not believe in God for the one episode, but now that something happens Kurt has nowhere else to turn, and like EVERYONE, apparently, turns to God.
blaahhhhh I went through an awful lot in high school and can’t say a religious streak was up there. It is entirely possible for high...

Pet Peeve:
When people act surprised and insulted when someone in a wheelchair stands up. A lot of people who use wheelchairs aren’t paralyzed, and can physically walk but not for very long, or at least can stand up for a moment if they need to. I’ve seen people look scandalized at someone in a wheelchair who moved their legs or stood up, clearly thinking “to be in a wheelchair you must be...

Do you know how sometimes you just see things that really really break your heart and all you can do is cry even though the situation has literally nothing to do with you? I was at CVS picking up a prescription and there was a very old couple in front of me. Both of their backs were hunched over and they moved very slowly and talked quietly. I heard the pharmacist list off 3...

Shanna is easily annoyed:
My psychology professor went over our first exam today. He said if we made a good case for subjective questions, he might accept alternate answers. There were a couple questions that legitimately could have gone either way or were awkwardly worded, but he ended up giving credit to a bunch of people who clearly didn’t even read the textbook. One of the questions asked “According to...

edwardspoonhands:
So, I noticed a funny thing while on the Tour de Nerdfighting. Not only was the biggest cheer of the night for the part where I stuck “Benedict Cumberbatch” into Book 8, but pretty much everyone had seen season two of Sherlock.
Don’t get me wrong, I had also seen season two (or should I says “series two”) of Sherlock. John, however, had not. This is either because John...
