Thanks! I would stomp on my assessment book in some wild, cathartic dance celebration, but I bought it in ebook format and I love my iPad.

I have major problems with that! I can’t even look at faces about a third of the time. I’ve gotten good at looking right above a person’s ear though.

About two years ago I worked at a coffee shop that was big on […]

I swear, I retain more information from news haiku (haikus? Dammit, what’s the plural?) than I do from watching the actual news.

Apropos of nothing, but Tumblr’s main functions seem to be to creep people out, and to make every person feel awful about every possible thing imaginable. Including food. Especially food.

Welcome back! Glad you emerged, relatively unscathed!

Ooh, you got a good one!

It went pretty well! I came out mostly unscathed, which was nice considering that I thought my assessment class would kill me. I’m so happy to have a full month to myself before summer classes come for me!

Oh man, China! That sounds fantastic! I hope you do a trip write-up when you get back and have super fun times while there. I’m so jealous! Good luck planning. :)

Yay! Welcome back! How’d it go?

I think it looks like pits are always smiling. She looks sweet. When she’s not sick, I’d hug her full-force, but gently now since she’s not feeling 100%.

I’m back, y’all! The semester is over, I’m well-rested and happy, and I’m ready to be social again, so

HI EVERYONE!!

I missed open-thread fun times.

Eek, stalker much? I don’t have a clever .gif, but I can assure you that Donna Noble and I are making similar faces. Can you block him from reading?

I’m really glad that you got out of that situation! It feels wonderful, doesn’t it?

I really don’t  think of mine anymore, unless he pops up to harass me. For a few months after we broke up, he’d text telling […]

Thanks for your support. I think that my values have just been strengthened, if anything. I do hope this can help others.

Thanks for the reassurance. I really hope I can turn my experience into something positive for others. I’ve been working on academic papers and program initiatives regarding consent to sexual activity that are […]

Oh, he was so manipulative. He prided himself on it too, and used to joke about he could get people to do whatever he wanted back in high school. I think he was abusive towards me because I refused to fawn over […]

Thanks to both of you. It is way harder to leave when you trust somebody. I think part of what contributed to my finally being able to leave was finding out that my ex was busy breaking my trust by taking all […]

SO SWEET. I want to hug her. Carefully, of course.
