Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And now an infuriating interview with that "seduction guide" guy: [link]

I know this point has been made a thousand times on tumblr, but I think people are really not taking into account how women are socialized to be all playful "haha stop it" when they actually mean "GET YOUR FUCKING HAND OFF ME."

I think people are really not taking into account how women are socialized to be all playful "haha stop it" when they actually mean "GET YOUR FUCKING HAND OFF ME."

Man, I did that with a guy who was a known creeper (I hesitate to use the term "predator") among our wider group of acquaintances. I really wanted to smack his hand or break a finger, and I *totally* did the "Now, watch yourself, or you won't get that hand back, hahahaha!" And I was SO PISSED at myself even as I was doing it. Because I didn't want to cause a scene, and I didn't want a known creeper to get mad at me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sounds like it certainly contributed, sumi.

I didn't really expect K-Bug to come by today as she typically does on Mondays around this time of day. But I had hoped.

I'm going to another sports bar tonight. They have bacon fries on the menu. I don't know what that is, exactly, but I feel compelled to get them.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Please report back. I need to know about how those two things go together.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, Suzi. I'm sorry. Vibing hard for her to come to her senses.

When I visited NC and the localistas, I had truffle fries cooked in duck fat from a local food truck. OMFG.

Bacon fries -- can there BE a bad there?
