dear chinese class: i absolutely hate you. i hate you i hate you i hate you. why the fuck should i have to write something, memorize it, and recite it TWICE A WEEK? this is fucking busy work at it’s finest. i get that speaking helps pronunciation, but at least give us something that benefits our conversational skills. as of now, i can only speak chinese like a fucking parrot. how the fuck...

enogitna: danyerr replied to your post: danyerr replied to your post: Started and finished… while the BR movie is not fundamentally different, it still does take some liberties with characters. (most of the differences are in character background stories.) otherwise the movie stays pretty true to the premise and main story line of BR. I definitely see some obvious similarities between BR and...

The beginnings of the American Revolution,...
BRITISH EMPIRE: All right, fine, your stupid embargo worked. We won’t levy any more taxes-
AMERICAN COLONIES: Huzzah! Time to get drunk!
BRITISH EMPIRE: Except on tea.
AMERICAN COLONIES: What?
BRITISH EMPIRE: Get over it, it’s just tea. Seriously, where do you get this idea that you’re special and should never have to pay taxes? We hope that idea doesn’t go on to infect your political discourse centuries from now.
AMERICAN COLONIES: We’re not buying your stupid tea.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Are you being serious right now? What are you going to do, just stop drinking tea?
AMERICAN COLONIES: Yes. We’ll drink coffee.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Do you even know what that is?
AMERICAN COLONIES: No, but we’ve heard it’s good and we’re feeling surly.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Fine, whatever, we don’t even care what you do anymore.
BRITISH EAST INDIA COMPANY: Actually, we are pretty much bankrupt, so you need to make them drink the tea.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Oh, for—just drink the tea.
AMERICAN COLONIES: No.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Do it.
AMERICAN COLONIES: NO.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Drink it.
AMERICAN COLONIES: Fuck you.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Drink it or we’ll punch you in the face.
AMERICAN COLONIES: *Boston Tea Party*
BRITISH EMPIRE: What the hell?
AMERICAN COLONIES: We heard it was Indians.
BRITISH EMPIRE: That’s interesting, because we heard it was a bunch of colonists wearing paint and dressed in costumes that were remarkably similar to what a crowd of drunks who wanted to look like Indians would assemble if the only supplies they had were found in an alley behind a bar.
AMERICAN COLONIES: You get all types in Boston.
BRITISH EMPIRE: …*Coercive Acts*
AMERICAN COLONIES: Oh, it is ON.

Jonagain: STOP TUMBLING AND FINISH YOUR ESSAY. I WILL NEVER STOP. actually i have a serious problem with authority, which leads to compulsive/arbitrary defiance. which actually is why i didn’t get my license until i was almost 22. i honestly had set out to get it fairly early on, but once my parents started saying things like “you really need your license” i would respond...

this paper i just can't
french revolution i love you. i’m all about you. but i just don’t want to write this paper augghhhh whyyyy. this paper is only four pages. why am i putting up such a fight? because watching Marie Antoinette for the FIVE HUNDREDTH FUCKING TIME is obviously more entertaining than writing about how Diderot used The Nun as an incredibly transparent criticism of the Old Regime....

wilwheaton: Just so I’m clear: Misogyny in advertising on TV is totally okay. Violence on TV is totally okay. Encouraging people to self-diagnose mental illness on TV is totally okay. Flipping the bird on TV, though, is totally not okay. Is that pretty much it? Okay, that’s what I thought. So, allow me to just say something real quick here, okay? For fuck’s sake, America, it’s not the 1950s...

gyzym: Right okay so here’s the deal: strong female character? Is an awesome, awesome term when it means “strongly written female character.” Please assume, for the duration of this post, that that is what *I* mean when I’m using it; I don’t know what everyone else means, and maybe I missed some kind of memo or something, but as I am getting the impression that I would have torn that memo up if I...

siren calls
feeling better. (safer?) i welcome the day when i can be rid entirely of the plague that is alex. the sooner, the better. and now that i’m done jumping at shadows, i can focus on studying and getting a job and finding a place to live. this was supposed to sound optimistic. i’m trying to learn how to cook. turns out i can make some delicious tilapia. it also turns out that, now...

recognizing faces
i’m not sure whether it’s because i’m a visual learner or because my adhd makes me extremely detail oriented which in turn means i remember all of the useless tiny things no one else gives a shit about, but i just can’t forget faces. seeing a bunch of ex-coworkers whom i never really talked to is a strange experience. especially because i know (or at least assume) they...

the rise and fall of ziggy stardust: a reprise
i have been dwelling and dwelling and dwelling, in spite of my best efforts. but let’s be honest: danielle trying to not dwell on something is like the earth trying to not orbit the sun. hyper-focus, you can be a real dick sometimes. the worst is when i get sucked so far into my own mind that i just forget everything. par example: driving back home, and realizing half way there that...

jamtam replied to your post: it’s that time of year! I won’t pretend to know any of the details, and I’m sure you know the following, but; -don’t mistake an act of supportive kindness with selfish coveting -but more importantly, will that little shit (biased party) be there for you 8 years from now? he is not the type of person to be there for anyone after even a day, let alone eight...

it's that time of year!
when danielle re-re-examines the alex scenario, and once again falls back into obsessing endlessly and needlessly over the entire thing. who am i kidding? this is like every day of my life. and since when did it become “the alex scenario”? that is: a. a horrible title and b. completely unnecessary. fucking alex, man. (at least i can take solace in the fact that my disdain for...
