I just want to watch TV and go to sleep
but I have to write a 700 word memorial in the voice of Kim Hongjip, Prime Minister of Korea in 1894, to the King calling for reforms. 700 words is normally completely doable, unless you are wholly unable to tap into the psyche of a long dead Korean government official.

Still, maybe the best thing about Liz Lemon is that all her idiosyncrasies—her sourness, her prudishness, her love of “The Real Housewives”—don’t have to mean as much, anyway. When the show started, every bespectacled, slovenly, overworked media chick was delighted to finally have a character…

xvxavier: If you’re a “nice guy” to a girl up until you realize she doesn’t want to date you, then go on about how she’s a cold shrew that friendzoned you and how no girls date nice guys, like, nah mate, girls do date nice guys. You just aren’t a nice guy. You’re a passive aggressive beta with internalized misogyny and a serious victim complex. BOOM.

He always says no to everything but one dog. If I keep up with it I think I’ll be able to “compromise” to two dogs and one cat (which is all I really want anyway). MWAHAHAHA.

Weekly Human Sexuality Class Rant
No one likes my articles for human sexuality because they’re too nonnormative because they’re all about nonnormative things. Everyone brings in mainstream articles about “new” birth control methods and planned parenthood controversies and heteronormative everything and it makes me bored and grumpy. The great savior is that we have independent academic article summaries and...

Getting out of bed. Staying awake while reading. Getting any of my work for tomorrow done. Being clean (NO SHOWERS ‘12). Interacting with other humans. Moving my car. Staying hydrated (water is out of bed). Going to the bank.
