nerdy happy love times
Best cat/font combo. EVER.
This isn’t ‘happy’, and it’s certainly not anything to love, but after reading the stream of misguided Tweets from ladies practically begging Chris Brown to beat them, I felt I just had to remind everyone how horrid abuse like this is. Come on ladies, have a little self-respect and stand up and speak out against abusive relationships––for all of us.
It’s cool ladies, I’ll re-post this every time Chris Brown hits the zeitgeist.
And I’ll especially re-post this everytime someone collects a series of “Chris Brown can beat me whenever he wants” tweets. Seriously ladies? Respect yourselves.
Chris Brown shouldn’t be able to get on mainstream TV anymore you all should still be so pissed.
Watching the Improv Jam two weeks ago, sitting with Neil Casey while a scene started where someone did a tag out that transported characters from a fast food restaurant to a police interrogation room. Neil leaned over and said this to me:
“I’ve noticed that for students under 25 a lot of them walk on or tag out as the police coming to shut things down for being out of line. These kids either live in a world or they think they live in a world where if you step out of line the system comes crashing down on you like a ton of fucking bricks.”
After he said that, it started to stand out. Someone in an improv scene starts cheating on their company, security comes crashing in to ask them questions. Some tag-outs were just people being police. Other were smarmy investigators who came in with a sort of “good cop” attitude: “Hey, we’re just here to ask a few questions.”
Once you start thinking about this, a lot of improv gets really creepy.
Hey, it’s a story I wrote!
All the world is birthday cake, so take a piece, but not too much.
To be engrossed by something outside ourselves is a powerful antidote for the rational mind, the mind that so frequently has its head up its own ass—-seeing things in such a narrow and darkly narcissistic way that it presents a colo-rectal theology, offering hope to no one.
