Issues
I’ve got lots of issues and this shouldn’t be news to anyone. I was eating dinner today and I thought to myself, I take life way too seriously. It’s why I get so antsy about things. I feel like everything has to be perfect, like how I picture it to be and it drives me crazy.
As I start thinking about this, I decided to open my mouth and share it with my mom. Worst idea ever....

Rest In Peace Stuart Walker. A 28 year old, gay man who was beaten and tied to a lamp-post at the earlier hours of Saturday morning. He was then set on fire, and burnt to death. Homosexuality is found in over 400 species, homophobia is found in one. So, which is natural now?
This made me tear up. I don’t want to understand people anymore.

Friendship
Why is it so important? Now that I’m no longer in school, I don’t interact with a lot of people. I hardly even talk to my friends. It got me thinking, why are friends important?
I remember being in elementary school and having a best friend. I was new and didn’t know many people. This girl named Amanda hung out with me. It was nice. We would sit on top of the monkey bars and...

She expected so much more. Now she is disappointed. In herself, in life, in other people. It all turned out so different than she thought it would, than she had so desperately hoped for. She leads a life she doesn’t want to lead. She is in a situation she doesn’t want to be in. She feels emotions…
Seems like they’re talking about me.

Hypocrite
Why do I always find myself feeling and looking like a hypocrite? For years, I’ve always given my brother the benefit of the doubt with everything. I know he’s no angel; I know he’s young and he’ll make mistakes.
When I was his age, I did the same things and I guess I’ve just always been lucky I didn’t get caught. Now that I’m older though, I find myself...

– Rich guy and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, offering up some ideas for OccupyWallStreet. This one? Capping student loans at $2,000 per year, thereby bringing overall college prices down. Brilliant. A bunch of his other ideas are fascinating, too. (via shortformblog)

On Teju Cole’s small fates
By Matt Pearce
Gary Robinson once tried to cut seven people in line at a Church’s Chicken in Miami. It was near closing time. He wanted a small box of fried chicken, which in those days — 1985 — sold for $2.19. He was rude, but he listened when the young woman at the register told him to go wait in line like everybody else. When his turn came, the...
Toot, toot
Not to toot my own horn but I give the best advice.. so I shall toot away. - Toot.
Really though, I was talking to my little brother today and realized I give horrible advice but somehow it works. My brother’s in that awkward middle school age. He and his friends are always cracking jokes and calling each other inappropriate names. I’m not a big fan of it. So I told him to do what...
The Moment
I think.. I could be wrong, but I think that everyone waits for the moment of redemption. Whether you’re waiting to be validated or for your life to be okay again, we’re waiting to be redeemed.
I know a lot of people are waiting for me to turn myself around. The other day a guy I dated asked me when I’d ask for him back. I dated him two years ago! And I don’t know whether...
Black Nail Polish
I love my black nail polish, even though it seems not like me. Maybe that’s why I like it so much.
Today made me realize how much I hate my life. I’m so unhappy with everything and even though I have good days every now and then, it’s not enough. I’ve realized this for some time now.
One time, a friend of mine asked me if I’d ever date someone who was exactly like...
