Dear world,
I see a lot of stuff bashing veganisim and vegetarianism. You don’t want to be vegan or vegetarian? Whatever. That’s cool. I don’t care.
But could you please for the sake of my sanity stop assuming that vegans and vegetarians have that diet solely because they’re all preachy animal rights activists?
Personally, I’m vegan because I’m healthier this way, and...

There are many things rape is not:
consensual sex
affectionate contact
a bear hug
a tackle
eye contact
an argument
a surprise
overburdening
an athletic loss
a neutral metaphor
There are only a few things rape is:
forcing sex on a person
despoiling a population or place

For some reason, there have been a lot (and I do mean a lot) of crows around. They were out by my house yesterday, and they came back today.
I love crows, so I took pictures. :)
AGHHHH.
So I called like, three people today about my Testosterone prescription. (Which is kind of a big deal because I have phone anxiety like woah.)
Because I’m trans so I need hormone therapy… (It is a medical need for me as much as it is a medical need for anyone with any other kind of hormone deficiency to have it fixed.) I’m usually on hormone therapy. I’m supposed to be on...

This is sarcasm, right? I can’t think of a reason why someone would say this to me, knowing anything about me, without them being sarcastic. Because everyone knows fat people are sexy, contributors to our society and weight isn’t an accurate indication of health, and portraying human beings as human beings is always a fabulous thing.
So much agreement here.

"They" as a singular epicene pronoun.

And I’ll be honest, at first I was like “but that’s not grammaticality correct!”
But now I realize that that is just silly. (“silly” being euphemistic for...

Adults tell their kids to listen to their teachers, behave in class, and keep their hands to themselves. Then the adults turn around and wage war on countries killing countless of innocents. And they are innocent. Oh the hypocrisies of the authorities.

Internet Explorer got a upgrade, let’s see if us Chrome users still hate it.
We will, it’s in our nature.

I haven't figured it out...
At least not to the extent that I could satisfactorily put it into words…
You made a similarly titled post a few days ago. You might as well have gone into my head and written down the reasons you’re so comfortable to me.
Go figure.
But it doesn’t end there, and I’m not sure where it goes.
So I’ll get back to you or something.
