Fun facts
77% of white people think the reaction to Katrina would have been the same if most victims had been white
56% of white people think that the government’s reaction to Katrina doesn’t show that racial inequality is still a problem
53% of white people think blacks have equal job opportunities
White people. Jesus.
Dozing off in class...
You better believe I woke up when the concept of affirmative action for men was brought up.

I recognize people may not be able to afford this...
But Amtrak gets public funds, and believe me, it would be a public service.

Just a thought.
People who have never taken trains before should be required to do a trial run before being allowed to travel on the busiest weekend of the year. Because let me tell you, when there is a packed car behind you it is NOT the time to realize you don’t know how to open the door (you push. where it says push), or to ask if the cafe car has a bottle of water that is less cold, or to comment,...

I think. I’m pretty sure. It may get a little foggy after the fourth bottle glass.

I imagine that being in Canada on Thanksgiving is like being in Israel on Christmas. Except I understand what people are saying. Kind of.
I am eating a Cadbury Creme Egg candy bar.
This is awesome because:
It is November. In Canada, you can buy Cadbury Creme Egg candy bars in November.
IT’S A CADBURY CREME EGG CANDY BAR.

Shaved my legs.
You know, except for where I didn’t.
Avery put on SimplyNoise so I wouldn't hear her...
Lady, I’ve been sitting here sniffing my fingers trying to figure out what they smell like (no, nothing I could stick them in)—you know, as opposed to just washing them—for the last ten minutes. I really don’t think you have much to hide.
rachelarogers:
Fire alarms are going off in the terminal and no one is doing ANYTHING.
You’re at an AIRPORT. What’s the worst that could happ—oh. Well.

Things I Ponder On The Train
Why do we find the b sound affectionate? To wit, a short list of things I call or am called by my girlfriends:
B
Boo
Buttercup
and of course
Baby, with its TWO b sounds.
This is mysterious and fortunately I have 11 hours to ponder it.

People who can highlight straight make me stabby.
“Oh gosh. I have heard every single version of this ‘why don’t you just think...”
– (via kashmiriyat)
this is good wine.
indefensible:
It’s not for men to speak on behalf of women, and it’s certainly not right to be castigated when women don’t kick up enough fuss themselves. What I take sharp umbrage to is the idea that now that men are speaking up, somehow they’re in the wrong for not speaking up in the past.
That is some bullshit. Women are distinctly capable of speaking in their own interests. They do not need...
One quick clarification
And then remember that paper?
I don’t think “patriarchy” (a term I only hear used ironically these days) doesn’t affect men, nor do I think that it’s not okay for them to want to help because they feel affected by it. But I don’t think it’s okay for them to help just because of that. I don’t support the NAACP because it hurts me to watch my black...
