I'm thiiiiis close to flipping my shit on facebook, because I swear if i see another post about how guns don't kill people or the mentally disturbed will find a way to kill with or without guns I'm going to loose it or something of that ilk. This isn't even a big red button issue for me. For the most part I don't give a shit about whether or not ( Read more... )

In a discussion online about The Hunger Games a friend posted to this link, which points out that Peeta is a feminized male and claims that fact is a problem in the story. I’m not touching how insulting it is that that writer separates character traits into female and male roles, and then paints the female traits as negative ones. Oh wait, I just ( Read more... )

So I took one of the anti-biotics and a half hour later I was doubled over and throwing up. I'm just starting to recover a little bit now. That's not cool. A whole two hours of recovery time for taking ( Read more... )

I attempted Dilly Beans today. My parents are away in Montana for a while and my father's garden is producing lots of things and it would be a shame for all those green beans to go to waste. I am currently in the "OH GOD WHAT IF THEY DON'T SEAL" part of the canning process. This is not my most favorite phase. It's the part where I worry that I ( Read more... )
