That’s what the million “disruptive/excessive talking” marks on every single report card and calls home from our teachers because we “asked too many questions” were for I hate the introvert/extrovert dichotomy, which is a load of pseudoscientific bullshit anyway, but if you think that outgoing and talkative people aren’t ever chastised for being “annoying” and“too much” come the fuck on

"The vaccine may affect the menstrual cycle!" Yeah menstrual cycles can change at the slightest breeze, and you know what REALLY affects them? Viruses. Other things that change or seem to change menstrual cycles: breastfeeding, birth control, iron anemia, B12 anemia, depression, stress, travel, sleep, chronic health conditions, maybe even being around another person on their menstrual cycle. And getting sick.

If you have to spend all your time defending a friend of yours to all of your other friends... maybe you shouldn't be friends If you feel fine around them but have serious doubts when you're on your own and thinking about them... maybe you shouldn't be friends

Hold up, FRUBES?! Makes sense that they don’t call it Gogurt because they pronounce it differently, but FRUBES?

Just revisited Let’s Spend the Night Together, which is one of the wildest books I’ve ever read. It’s personal accounts from groupies from like the 50s to the 2000s. It starts out with like “I had sex with Al Green” and ends with “I gave Kid Rock a blowjob” But there were SO many young women who claimed to be Marilyn Manson‘s personal muse, who he just kept around and was absolutely horrible to, many of whom when they were underage

EVERY thin white girl with rich parents goes through a modeling phase, how do you guys not know this. And I don’t blame the girls, I blame the modeling agencies But I don’t know, mocking a young girl for the way that they look or dress rubs me the wrong way. I get that you’re punching up because they’re rich, but… I don’t know, it still doesn’t sit well with me

The GameStop thing probably has horrific implications but I think we are all just doing what we do with everything now and taking it one day at a time to enjoy it Wall Street guys are just fancy versions of that guy I met wearing an online poker hat and fully clothed in a sauna in Atlantic City hotel six years ago

“2020 is awesome for us introverts” Do you think maybe just this once you guys could maybe do what you are known for doing and be quiet Most introverts are actually having a really hard time right now, too

My mom would have been 67 this week and honestly T*m Allen getting skewered is one of the best things that could happen on her birthday week, she hated him I don’t think she ever met him but she just couldn’t stand anything about him and what he stood for

Teach ASL in all US schools. It is not only a beautiful language, but part of a history and culture.

Still teach cursive, but completely revamp the curriculum. Take it for what it is, an art form with major motor skill and possibly even mindfulness benefits.

Cursive being thrown out the window to make room for typing leads to this kind of “learn to code” thing where students are only taught how to be successful workers in a capitalist system instead of encouraging their own expressiveness.

I love that English people are so snooty about American actors doing English accents, but English actors can only ever do New York or Southern accents and never a baseline American accent My apologies to Southerners, you’re right, a lot of them can’t even do southern accents very well. Especially when there are so many different southern accents

Deleted my earlier tweet because it wasn’t coming off the way I wanted, but just want to say that dismissing community college out of hand is absolute bullshit. They’re amazing places for people to go And I know so many people who have learned more at them than they did at four year colleges. I have learned a lot just by hanging out with people who went to community colleges and told me about the classes they took!

I started watching Sex and The City last night. I don’t know why, it really isn’t good It’s bad but I also can’t stop watching it with this bizarre sort of fascination? About just how wrong it is, or just how clearly it was not written by women, or about what was “cool” in the late 90s — I completely forgotten that song “you and me and the bottle makes 3 tonight”

Watched #RebuildingParadise, about the Paradise fires. It’s so upsetting to see how giant monopolies can cut corners and end up killing people, and how much can be lost so quickly. Heartening to see how communities can rebuild.

I believe Chloe Dykstra. I’ve been there. Not with her ex, but with another ambitious, “nerdy” industry guy.

Just because I’m a has-been doesn’t mean I want to be in your right-wing Christian movie I got one about a month ago that had actor names in place of character names, namely, the actors they wished would play each part. Like half of them were former child stars.
