What the hell virginia....
An hour ago it was sunny and 70-some degrees.
Now it’s chilly and rainy and there’s apparently a tornado watch?
Sounds like the ideal time for a nap….

Reading for Fun: What drama! What adventure! Oh, there is no pleasure equal to that of reading the miracle of the novel-to experience such joys and sorrows at the hands of a paperback is truly one of the great pleasures this life has to offer. If I could do nothing but read for the rest of my life, truly, I would be content.

the weather is nice Ben, the laws of physics require that all UMW students play frisbee and act like baboons when the weather is nice

Went to Godfrey's last night.
Got smashed.
Danced around like an idiot.
Saw some lovely drag queens.
Spent entirely too much money.
It was nice.

I’ve gotten a ton of texts like “Happy Lent! Christ gave up his life for you, what are you giving up for Lent?”
Yeah. No. I don’t believe that Jesus is the son of God. I don’t “do” lent.
I’m tempted to reply to each and every text with “I’m giving up being an obnoxious prick who shoves my religion on others through text messages.”
I gave up caring about what other...

You look so much nicer when you’re happy. Everyone does. And if happiness is short blue hair and the right pronouns, good. Happiness and contentment are attractive on everyone. Identity policing makes me mad. You’re perfect as you are.

Oh, so those Virginia abortion bills passed.
fuckyeahgenderstudies:
So disappointing.
“Del. Bob Marshall’s House Bill 1 would effectively outlaw all Virginia abortions by declaring that the rights of persons apply from the moment sperm and egg unite. It passed Tuesday on a vote of 66-32.”
“On a 63-36 vote, the House passed a bill that requires women to have a transvaginal ultrasound before undergoing abortions.”

Whoa, a few minutes ago I heard a phone ringing, which is weird because we don’t have one and I don’t think next door does either. It sure wasn’t a cell phone… I haven’t found the sources of the noise yet, either.
Weirddddddddd

there’s nothing quite as creepy as sitting here in the lounge by myself in near complete silence, only to have the floor phone start ringing.
it didn’t help that when i answered it, no one was there.
