::psycho groupie cocaine crazy::
May. 21st, 2010 06:28 pmI am seriously considering drop-kicking my car into a lake. It stalled out while I was driving it uphill, so I had to sit for about an hour in the blazing heat, waiting for my friend with jumper cables to come by, watching car after car drive past. I just started shouting insults at anyone who made eye contact.
Bunch of assholes.
The car still isn't working, but we pushed it into a parking lot so it can just sit and think about what it's done.
Yeah, my mood is not all that awesome right now. I'm just hoping that our plan to drink it up later tonight does not fall through, because I need to not be sober.
Oh! Also, I'm working. So on top of being a cranky, overheated bitch, I'm a hypocrite, too.
FUCK THIS.
Edit: It is always safe to assume that my rare fits of rage are as short-lived as they are violent. With liberal application of dark chocolate, cold Earl Gray, and Ry Cooder, I feel a bit more human. -_-

Ignorant mother FUCKERS
Jan. 21st, 2010 10:31 pmMy university needs to wake the fuck up.
I go to school in one of the most conservative regions of America. And it shows in the ignorant motherfuckers they put in charge.
Demographically, college students are the source of the vast majority of liberal influence. We're educated and gaining experiences that give lie to bias and stereotypes. Young people are a powerful, motivated force.
And my school's motivation just got smacked in the face.
My school's GSA was collecting signatures in order to add a clause about gender identity into our school's discrimination policy. I have met and know many transgender individuals, and they are wonderful people. But they are still vulnerable to discrimination. A professor can fail someone who is physically a male, just for wearing a dress.
The GSA collected over 1000 signatures from students who felt that this was an important clause. For reference, the school's entire SGA election did not receive 1000 votes. This shows that people feel more strongly about the transgender issue than they do their own student government.
The SGA passed this clause, 24-0-1.
The school board denied it. Their reasoning?
We are too conservative a campus for such legislation.
Translation: We don't want to lose our conservative donors.
They then went on to state that they did not feel comfortable with passing such legislation, as the larger schools in Florida had no such rules.
They want to wait to see what everyone else will do.
We are a small school. But we feel strongly about this. And we're ignored.
Now the school board is proposing to the SGA a clause that will tack on more fees to our tuition, in order to pay for general school maintenance. On top of that, they are raising the price of housing, across the board. And they expect our support.
When we want change, they ignore us. And then they try to get more money out of us.
If this school board was tea, I'd toss it into the Boston Harbor.
