I'm supposed to use the wastebasket in my room, which is ALSO where I'm supposed to throw away my food scraps and such. I end up throwing out a plastic bag of food scraps and things every other day (because who wants that in the room where they sleep?!), and I feel like I'm creating so much more waste, but I don't…

haha, my landlady just has handwritten signs taped to the toilet and the wastebasket in the bathroom saying things like "please no flush of pads or tampons." "please no throw away of pads or tampons. smell a lot." So there you are.

Yay, crazy landlord stories!

I find it strange that I'd never seen a water fountain dedicated solely to filling water bottles. That is, until I went to London where my friends found one just outside St. Paul's Cathedral. I'm sure we looked like silly tourists because we maybe sort of made a big deal over it and I took a picture to prove its…

Like this? (Because that was my reaction to the news too.)

As a kid watching this movie for the first time, I was scared of her...until that scene with her minions and that line. I didn't know exactly what "disgrace" meant, but her tone was the way I felt about my younger brother so I felt a deep sense of kinship toward her. She's kinda my favorite.

Oh, she totally is. I love that Maleficent won't take any bullshit. You know she'd smite them all.

ALL THE POWERS OF HELL ON THESE PEOPLE.

You're very welcome! Maleficent doesn't tolerate any bullshit.

UGH. Every time someone writes or says something like this, I want to go Maleficent on their ass. With all the powers of hell!

Well, remember that little girl who dresses up as historical figures every day? She's white and several of her costumes were women of color (Billie Holiday, Aung San Suu Kyi, Harriet Tubman) but I didn't think there was anything wrong with it because she -and her parents- seemed very much aware that these were women…

Bogdammit, Tom Hardy! My ovaries cannot handle your hot manly-manliness SNUZZLING that adorable little puppy. Jesus H. Christ on a cracker!

Right! I forgot about that, bless him! I don't get why theatre people are so snooty (that's a lie, I do get it...I just don't always agree with it). And totally, if the integrity/quality of the show remains intact, let all those actors be their bad selves, whether they're stage or screen!

I've said this before, but I really want a dog. I love them so much. I'm just nowhere near being financially stable enough to have one - and it's killing me. I see a dog, and I'm filled with a profound sense of longing and desire. It's pathetic how happy it makes me when I get to say hello to a happy dog.

/hug. We may be internet strangers, but there's actually someone on the other end! I'm sorry things are so stressful, and that you feel isolated from people you care about and who should care about you. It's tough feeling like the expendable one - and I know how that feels all too well.

Bed, sleep, tea (of any and all kinds, vats of it), Netflix if I can pay attention to it - otherwise, I'll put on some youtube playlists of people reading poetry or talking quietly in a different language. And, I know this is disgusting, but I crave the unnaturally orange Kraft mac-n-cheese - something about it is so…

Aww! My dog would very much appreciate your child! He's pretty friendly, but he's also really small and gets pretty scared when a child (or anyone, really) barrels full tilt at him. He'll hide from them, then they get huffy about it...but if they took the time to approach him respectfully, he's all about the patting!

haha Usually, that's me too. I don't know what got into me, but I hope it stays.

Aww, thanks!

Jesus, that sucks, but I can commiserate. Sometimes I fantasize about marrying someone rich, popping out a couple kids, and spending my days cooking dinner and baking pie.
