Notice he’s not talking about just four-year college. What a snob. (via soupsoup)
I love my president.

Straight up.
I wonder why anti-choicers don't go out and...
socialistexan:
It would allow a man to control his reproduction, and give him an opportunity to have nearly inconsequential premarital sex (outside STDs of course), and allow sex to be not just for reproduction.
Oh, you mean it’s because it’s a man and not a woman? Ya don’t say.
Well, aside from the fact that (I think) that’d just mean protesting either regular doctors’ offices...

To the Man in the Subway Today:
Dear Sir,
I regret that my response to your comment today in the West 4th Street station could not have been fully fleshed-out and reasoned. To be honest, I was taken aback, and ill-prepared to inform you on the issue of objectification of women in a grand sense. Allow me to make up for my response’s incompleteness now.

I understand ship loyalty, I really do, and I realize how awesome it would be to have another interview talking about Brittana. But that’s the thing- it’d be another one. It’d be an interview on top of a few other interviews, on top of pinkie holds and a stage kiss and a…

This post, which I got via Amber’s excellent blog, is spot on.
I’ve noticed since I got my mohawk, in fact maybe since I cut off my hair, progressively shorter and shorter, and started wearing it less and less femininely, that men have left me alone a lot more. I still tense whenever I walk by a man or group of men alone in the street late at night. I’m sure that most of them...
Johanna Lynne Is: I got yer cliche right here →
Assuming you’re still not following my other blog (and frankly, I can’t blame you, as I’ve only opened it once or twice since the summer), you might have missed this gem.
I am a cliche.

I have become a cliche.
I’m a 20-something Brooklynite without an office job, who is sitting in a cafe, working on a novel.
