Boo on Homophobia
I've probably dealt with homophobic attitudes in several indirect ways, but now it may have hit close to home. There's a pretty good chance that a couple of people in my life have caught on to my preference in guys, and it really doesn't feel good. It just amazes me that people still hold on to archaic, hateful beliefs, especially when they, as ( Read more... ) -
Skulls 'R' Us
I'm guilty of what I am about to talk about... to some degree. So much that I have to risk insulting myself and other LJ readers on here. Regardless, something has to be said about L.A.

Nazi Germany in the Backyard
I have no full understanding of a company that makes their employees work and live in fear. Just last night, at 9:30pm, one of my co-workers received a call from a head person in the company to ask why her report was turned in late. This was her first time turning it in late. Seriously? We may not want to bite the hand that feeds us, but be ( Read more... )
