You watch as I sip my coffee on the park bench and the problem isn’t you watching but that I know you’re watching me sip my coffee. So in my head I watch us, you watching me and me watching you watching me, and there is no one there in that body of mine but a self-conscious fool lifting the drink…

feministhistorian:
some bullshit sexual “orientation” bored teens came up to make themselves feel special
I believe it means “only being sexually attracted to people after forming an emotional connection with them”
or in other words

I’d be single again the day before Valentine’s day… It’s definitely a tear-jerker, especially when you’re the cause of it.

A quick note about today’s prop 8 ruling: While the court did rule in favor of gay marriage, the court did not assert that gay marriage is a fundamental or constitutional right. That’s not the angle the court was coming from, and in fact, it intentionally deferred answering that question….
Sanlie:
I was cleaning out my e-mail inbox when I came across this ancient, badly-written piece (part of the peer-revision for you UPenn admission?)
In my first year of knowing Sanlie, I sustained her as that girl, the reserved, semi-transparent class genius in the classroom corner. And although she constantly basked under the limelight for answering the unanswerable or acing the “un-acable,” I cannot...

Feathers ruffled,
Beak cracked,
Desire that once graced us...

I’m sure you’d all also benefit from a real job because dancing on a pole in skimpy clothing is not going to last forever. Lastly, learn how to be a mature adult.
