I had the most pathetic NYE. I got a stomach bug and puked into my hand (I thought I was just coughing) in the middle of the dance floor. Mr. Voice Actor says ‘You have the most fascinating mind I’ve met in years’ and squeezes my thigh and smiles...but doesn’t call.

2016. Please. Don’t let me be as lame as I was

Ooh, Zanzibar! With the Zanzibarbarians! I’ve also heard it’s the place from which Jack Black will order your favourite dish~

But for realsies, congratulations!

The waxing I got done on Tuesday. So we’re in the nice, obnoxious ingrown hair & whitehead phase. I can’t even makeout with a guy with a beard without looking like I was sandpapered. This is actual hell.

I was laid off from my job on the first. So of course Father’s telling everyone in our extended family how I was fired. When I objected, he just said ‘What do you think it’s called when your employer doesn’t want you anymore?’.

I have the Voice Actor’s holy grail of unread books in my bag. But I don’t want to give it

So, last Social, I said I was going to get involved with a much older voice actor.

That has kind of happened? One incredibly, volcanically hot hookup, anyway. Ran into him tonight at the usual watering hole, thankfully he was dressed like a scrub, so he was quite resistible. At my parents for the next few days,

My sister’s wedding day was a small, very chill event. So after an infuriating dinner (she literally pointed at her wedding band and stuck her tongue out at me) I went out to do karaoke with my friends and did ‘You Don’t Own Me’. Loud and drunk.

Homemade ‘nog!

I was laid off from my job on Tuesday afternoon. I have begun a flirtation with a local voice acting legend. I have the birthday party of the girl who got me the job that I just lost tonight, and I am enjoying a bowl of homemade eggnog to brace me for it. She’s left the company too (a few months ago, of her own

But in all seriousness?

Frosty the Snowman is my least favourite Christmas song. I mean, fuck, how stupid are the children? Melt is what snowmen do, they are SNOW! We know it, we know how snow works, why is this damn tiddlybumpbumping Christmas song trying to make us SAD AT PHYSICS?!

You’re absolutely right, I was speaking from a place of white privilege, and for that I apologize. Although I hadn’t heard about the UN’s F rating, that’s ignorance on my part.

I think I was downplaying it because I was being #notallwomen’d so hard. I’ve certainly had multiple brushes with danger. I know Aboriginal

I totally get it, the amount of white people whose behaviour does nothing to challenge the status quo would infuriate me too were I in your shoes. But no, I didn’t make a generalization about all men. I observed a worldwide pattern. Misogyny’s everywhere. Not necessarily in everyone.

You know what they say about assuming, don’t you? Makes an ass out of u and me?

Having been in love before, of course I saw the person as themselves. But speaking as someone with more experience romantically than you, by no fault of your own, where men are concerned, each heartbreak attacks your faith. Sexual

I took GREAT CARE when writing that first response because I knew people would #notallmen me if I used the word all. And of course I know it’s not all men. Just..some men, who don’t happen to be conveniently labeled, and even if they get through your first rounds of screening, they could still turn violent and

You didn’t contradict my opinion. You insinuated that I don’t deserve romantic love, and stated that I was rendering ALL men around the world equally culpable for the widespread rape and abuse of women, like the crimes committed in the article above.

Each region within a country has its own unique ecosystem of

Right? Like, all I said was that I struggle with it. It is hard for me to reconcile masculine complicity in a worldwide culture of violence with the personal dream of happy marriage and family. Because it’s only an accident of birth that I’m in Canada as opposed to almost anywhere else in the world, where misogyny is

I’m not American. I do know that American foreign policies engender violence and hate, just like your domestic policies do. I’m still going to attribute ownership of rapes and murders to rapists and murderers first, and the kyriarchy second.

Regrettably, I can safely say I am not bi.

So, I’m really struggling with the cognitive dissonance of knowing men around the world will take any opportunity to keep women down and the idea that I’m supposed to fall in love with one.


Have 1/10th your population, go back in time to make Peace, Order and Good Government your founding values. But mostly the first one. It’s easier to take care of fewer people.

The Thriller class at Harbour Dance every year is one of my FAVOURITE THINGS IN THE WORLD. TOMORROW NIGHT. SO EXCITED.
