He is being targeted because he speaks out about the police, and their abuse of authority. Because, as a white male, he doesn’t have to routinely worry that any police encounter could mean ending up with his face kicked in. But then they found a way to intimidate him, defame him, and de-legitimize his beliefs and his work. By profiling him. For his appearance.
And now a bunch...

So here’s a Jezebel post about an awful article that ran on the website for the magazine that I work for on Friday. Let me get this out there right now, for better or for worse—I edited and posted this article. The article was turned in for publication a few days in advance, but I didn’t read it until...
tw: suicide
I went out for “one beer” annnnnnnd now I’m drunk.
I am thinking of my friend Michael who took his own life nearly 18 months ago. It’s still painful today. Tears still come to my eyes at the mere thought of him. It’s hard to believe I once thought of suicide as an escape whereas now I see it as painful to more people than I’d ever realize. I don’t think...

The most unfortunate thing about clamming up around men I’m crushing on is that in the one class in which I can display my intelligence, it just so happens I have a huge boner for the professor!

did I mention that towards the end of my “oh here’s the analysis no further thought required here are the most obvious discussion questions this is a pointless class not designed to stimulate your intellect in any way” shakespeare class one of my classmates made an extremely transphobic comment?!!
dear rude person in my shakespeare class,
sorry, Luciana was indeed objective in her assessment of Adriana’s marriage, especially when put into context with her later conversation with Antipholus. you were pretty fuckin’ snippy with me, and I dunno if it’s because you thought that barista was flirting with me before class or what (I saw you glaring at me from the other side of...

It sounds so frustrating! I just spent 25 min with a client who was complaining about billing. It happens the same way with this client every month for more than a year, and they still haven’t figured out that the answer doesn’t change. Day jobs…
frustrated workers UNITE!

dear horrible woman,
Okay, yeah, the paper nativity you want to buy has one damaged figurine. yeah, his arms are loose and it is obvious they were fastened with hot glue which you can fix yourself because it’s ALREADY HALF-OFF. I’m not giving you a discount because it’s already discounted.
seriously, fuck off.
love, me

this is a work rant, sorry, but here we go.
There is nothing inherently wrong with my job. I actually enjoy it, what with the fun coworkers and great boss. However, these customers are too much to handle sometimes. Like today, a man came in with a scarf he bought for his wife as a Christmas gift in December. No receipt. He’d like to exchange/return it but straight up tells me his wife put...
