That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I mostly kept quiet and then she said (about the others we had and Nike) "this is going to sound rude but there is no other way to say it , they are all made by the same little chinks".

You know, I think there are actually plenty of other ways to say that. Starting with using words that aren't horrible racist slurs. The more you know! (Ugh, askye. Sorry you had to deal with that.)

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I was - years ago - in a store and a man (older, white) came in and refused to be waited on by an African American woman. The manager stepped up and said that she was the person free and it was her or no one. (He left, choosing no one.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Urgh. This sham of a FBI investigation pisses me off. I don't know why I thought it would be any different.

(It isn't even a yam sham.)

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

I'm sorry, askye. That's an awful situation.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I had to put myself on a news blackout today. Twitter was okay, but no reading articles.

I fear even yams could not help this sham.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Met the houseguests, and they have all gone out! So that's good. Starting tomorrow, I will also go out, but I'm trying to save up, and I have to work tomorrow.

Glad that's working out! Are these complete strangers or just internet ace murderers?

News blackout was a smart choice, Dana. I listened to maybe 10 minutes of radio coverage of this unholy mess and it was maybe too much. Although the Alaskan women who flew to DC to talk to Lisa (as they apparently refer to their Senator) was pretty cheery.

Complete strangers! They are in one of the other bands playing at the festival this weekend. They seem variously OK, pretty good, and like we might be friends. (There are three of them.)

Cool beans!

I see my previous typo/autocorrect and am kind of charmed by the thought of ace murderers. Like, their really good at it? Or something about tennis?
