The only people who think like this are the people who are privileged enough to do so.

Yes.

YES. DO THIS. Seriously, it is so helpful in helping you and your doctors see what’s going on in your body. When I started getting full blood panels regularly (well, as regularly as one goes to the doctor), it helped my care providers figure out how to best address the myriad of health issues I’ve faced. If you’re…

CHEESY STORY TIME: Jia, you were one of the biggest influences on my decision to move toward going back to university. I read “When Everything Is Bullying, Nothing Is Bullying”, and I thought to myself, “I disagree with some of her stances, but damn. Girl can write. I want to write like her.” I had spent a long time…

Yeah, it was absolutely fucked up. I love Jia- her unabashed love for Chipotle speaks to my very soul- but I disagree with the piece she wrote about bullying. Beyoncé’s fans took a massive effort into causing Roy emotional distress by sending her a constant stream of insults, threats, and spam. They even resorted to…

I get where he’s coming from. Beyoncé’s fans went overboard after Rachel Roy’s post on Instagram. She was shady as hell, but it’s no reason for fans to attack her preteen kid. That child didn’t deserve to be harassed on the internet. And even though Beyoncé wasn’t like, “Sick ‘em fam,” I can understand the frustration…

You get all the stars for fully articulating what I’ve been sputtering for a solid week.

I agree. She’s a racist asshole, but even racist assholes can have complex emotions. Doesn’t excuse her shitty behaviour, it just gives us an understanding of why she may have acted on idiot impulses.

I needed this today.

but seriously like WHO WRITES A SONNET other than the human embodiment of perfection

Eh. I don’t know. Theatre and its popularity and accessibility are very nuanced issues in both our current structure of pop culture and current economic climate.

I know, I saw. Donald Trump needs to be swallowed whole by the ground underneath him.

Same. I’m not clever enough to be witty in 140 characters or less.

I don’t twitter, unfortunately. I’m the only 20 year old who doesn’t understand it.

Gabapentin is an anti-epileptic drug, I think. It’s commonly used for nerve pain, which is a big part of the new symptoms I’m experiencing. But the main reason I’m taking it is because, along with the neuropathy-like symptoms I’m experiencing, I’ve started having panic attacks and insomnia because I’m so anxious about…

It definitely isn’t that bad for me, but I feel kind of drunk on it. But I only just started taking it Friday night.

Thank you for the comfort and advice! It’s always good to know that I might have a real reason to do a makeup run. ;)

Aaaaaaand now I’m crying again. But on the bright side: Lin-Manuel Miranda. He is the bright side.

Thank you. Big hug right back.
