I think, you only really stop being angry when you stop caring.
I hope I’m angry forever.

Here’s the thing, I know that I’ve still got racist and sexist and even heteronormative beliefs and ideas in me. My upbringing makes that inevitable. I try my hardest to identify those things and to not let them affect my actions or speech, but I’m not always successful. So if/when I ever do say or do something that is problematic and oppressive, I hope that someone else tells me...

Anonymous is right. It’s like screaming at a brick wall. If you can’t see how this is racist, even after it’s been spelt out for you, then you apparently lack the intellectual capacity to grasp that your shit ain’t funny. Saying it’s just a joke, or “but I’m being so subversive”, is just an excuse you use to continue on your racist merry way without...

Anonymous asked: No offense, but you might wanna pick your battles a little better. That asshole's gonna be ignorant no matter what you do. Typing out whole paragraphs at him isn't going to make him stop saying stupid shit. He's just another gay tumblr loser too wrapped up in his own little world.

Don’t overlook the fact that the wig is from Rei Ayanami cosplay.
Really? That’s your response? Laugh off racism with a joke?
Not ok.
I really was trying to approach it nicely. I purposefully sent you a private message so this didn’t have to escalate or turn ugly.
But clearly you have no room in you for self-awareness or education on racism. To make fun of me for...

I was on Facebook now and ran into this gem of a statement from a friend of mine:
Confessional: I’ve evolved to become a typical putrid American, so with age I now find myself becoming more politically conservative (aka nationalistic). The strong cannot eternally support the weak. I’m very proud of my ultra-liberal college yrs, and I will always be left-of-center because i believe...

Wow, I’m dumb. It’s not even the Winter Olympics this year. It’s the Summer Olympics. I just saw figure skating on TV and knew there were Olympics this year and I just assumed it was the Winter Olympics.

How is it I was totally oblivious to the fact that the 2012 Winter Olympics are happening? I freaking LOVE the Winter Olympics. You know, for the curling. And Ski-jumping. And ice hockey.
But mostly for the figure skating. Those asses. Those bulges. Those sparkles.
Gayest. Sport. Ever.

Anonymous asked: Yo, is the mormon church racist?
Yo, I believe they’ve taken steps to be only as doctrinally racist as most mainstream religions, which is to say, Very Racist, downgraded from The Most Open And Explicit Racist Bullshit You’ve Ever Heard.
100% truth.

Canada threatens trade war with EU over tar sands →
vredenburger:
The row over the EU’s plan to label tar sands oil as highly polluting escalates as Canada says it ‘will not hesitate to defend its interests’
Canada has threatened a trade war with European Union over the bloc’s plan to label oil from Alberta’s vast tar sands as highly polluting, the Guardian can reveal, before a key vote in Brussels on 23 February.

I like vodka just fine, but I just don’t understand the point of vodka martinis. Why on earth would you use vodka when you can have GIN? I mean, a vodka martini tastes like what exactly? A whiff of dry vermouth and if we’re lucky a bit of olive? Boring.
Unrelatedly, does anyone want to send me some of this? Thanks.

If Santorum gets the GOP nomination then plan to be listening to a President Obama victory speech in November. He’s just as loony-right as Pelosi/Boxer are loony-left.
WUT? You’ve clearly not the faintest idea what leftism is. Pelosi is centre-left and Boxer is firmly a centrist. To compare the degree to which Santorum is right wing to the degree that those women are left wing is...

culinarycub replied to your post: It’s a horrible thing when it’s 10:30 pm and…
Where the hades do you live that there isn’t an all night mexi-dive? Even growing up in Anchorage we had three that I can think of off the top of my head.
Yes, I do currently live in Hades. Otherwise known as small-town SE Wisconsin.
Don’t worry, I’m leaving soon.
It’s a horrible thing when it’s 10:30 pm and there’s no where you can go and get a burrito. That’s probably one of the main things I miss about living in Utah - all the 24 hour drive-through burrito joints/taquerias.
The only option for late-night noms here is either McDonalds or Wal-Mart.
It’s horrible.

I have a shameful confession
Until she died, I had never really listened to any of Whitney’s music. I knew of course her hit singles, but I never listened to her albums, never owned them.
Right now I’m listening to I Look To You, and shit it’s really good. Really. It’s dancey, it’s soulful, it’s funky, it’s electro, it’s everything I love in pop music.
So I don’t know for sure yet, but I might be going to Chicago the weekend of March 16-20th. I still have to get the time off from work - which should hopefully not be a problem as I’ve not asked for a weekend off in months and have worked EVERY weekend for the past 5 months. Including Christmas Eve and Boxing Day. So they owe me.
And I really need a holiday.

Why not Harper? Well, here is why:
frozenrevolutionary:
1. Contempt for Canada
The reason you’re being called to vote again, is because on March 25th, 2011, the Harper administration was found to be in contempt of Canadian parliament. This is the first time in the history of any commonwealth government that this has happened. The Speaker of the House of Commons had to rule three times that “the Harper government” appeared to...

On sounding like an elite liberal.
dearcoketalk:
How do you know so much about what happens after death? You sound like an elite liberal who knows everything whether they do or not.
Take a deep breath. Relax. This is not a fight. I am not a threat to you.
I get it. You’re terrified of death, and like most people, you have a core belief system of antiquated myths you’ve carried with you your entire life as a defense mechanism...

I have so many feelings about this...
So someone from my mission (be warned that that wikipedia page is almost a full-out propaganda page for the Mormon church - it’s not at all objective) added me to a secret Facebook group for people who went to the same mission (Frankfurt Germany) around the same time I did (2003-2005) and who’ve also left the church.
It’s difficult to explain the significance of this to a...
I just had one of the most delicious meals of my life.
1) Super marbley rib-eye with a dry rub of brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne and kosher salt, grilled until medium.
2) Giant mushrooms dressed with olive oil, fresh thyme, garlic powder, kosher salt and fresh lemon juice, grilled.
3) Oven fries, dressed with vegetable oil and a little malt vinegar and coated...

I understand that racism still exists, but in almost a bullying affect.
I have been bullied my entire life, but that has not stopped me from getting a job or going to school or something to that effect.

For the past couple months I’ve been playing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. The only RPGs I’ve played before were the Mass Effect and Star Wars Old Republic games. With all the hype with Skyrim coming out I decided to check out the Elder Scrolls series and bought Oblivion when it was super cheap on Steam.
Anyways, my point is that just two days ago I finally downloaded Skyrim and...

Seriously U guise
This curry.
Served along side the tomato biryani, garnished with cilantro, scallions and topped with a squeeze of lime.
If there is a heaven, which is grossly unlikely, it had better fucking be just like this.
Did I mention I made the garam masala from scratch with whole spices?
It’s amazing how much more flavourful and fragrant it is.
