Day 7
of listening to Adele and chain smoking. How much do I love life?
I am, however, ready to get reckless and floozy-ed up this weekend with my crew. Looking forward to the love and hope the last ten days go away, just for the night.

“You just don’t understand what it’s like to listen to vinyl”
Thank you, it’s true, I don’t know how to enjoy music, it’s not like I have a vinyl player in my room. To all the vinyl bandwagoners, those of us who enjoy vinyl don’t need to talk about how awesome we are because we listen to vinyl.
This kind of also leads me into another point that was brought...
Things that confuse me
1. Why my phone autocorrects “drunk” to “FDA”. Why would I care about the FDA or corruption in general?
2. What Heather Tapley wants me to write tomorrow afternoon.
3. Why in my education and curriculum class it is acceptable to use terms such as “digital native” or “digital immigrant” or “digitally colonize” to describe one’s...
INNER FAT GIRL: The “Phobia” Conundrum →
Just a little something written by an amazing and articulate individual….

A few days ago I stumbled across the end of a conversation on tumblr that was discussing how the word “phobia” is an appropriative term and should no longer be used to describe “fatphobia” “transphobia” “homophobia” etc. I couldn’t find the original links, but I gathered that individuals with…

there are countries, there are rivers,
in your eyes.
my country is in your eyes,
I walk through them,
they light the world
through which I walk,
lovely one. “

I feel like
my television is lying to me. Also, my computer is adjusting my volume without my permission. Advertisement: the potty dance is creepy and I really hate the satan child who mocks her mother’s skin tag. It’s so mean.
INNER FAT GIRL: No, actually I'm not pregnant, I'm... →
innerfatgirl:
I get asked if i’m pregnant all the time. People ask me on the street, in bars, AT WORK. It’s completely absurd. This week, I got asked if I was pregnant twice within 24 hours. No matter how many times it happens, I am still so STUNNED by people’s audacity that my brain shuts down and all the witty, cutting things that I’ve practiced as responses (for example, “No I’m...
