So Much Random, So Little Time

Very interesting story on a mentally disabled couple fighting for their right to live together because they’re now married.

Though you have to get to the bottom of the article to find it, and that’s difficult let me tell you, there is at least one young man in Steubenville, Ohio with morals, decency, and sense.

Was this reporter fired for wearing and embracing her natural hair?

Not only is this an interesting article but for one of the first time probably since the internet existed, the comments are overwhelmingly supportive and eloquent. I’m utterly shocked.

I dont understand

Can someone tell me why in every article I see about the nurse who died in London it mentions she is of Indian origin? I dont understand the significance. She is a human being who committed suicide, possibly with a horrible prank as a trigger, that’s what’s important. Origin is important too I know but not in this story. Or am I missing something?

Why does the Duchess of Cambridge’s pregnancy make me want to write Hotch/Prentiss AU royal baby fic? Doubt I will but funny thoughts have been floating through my head for days.

What the fuck is the story with the shirtless FBI Agent? I would feel so much better if they were just talking about Derek Morgan.

A Chicago Tribune article says Tom Hanks slips from nice guy rep with F bomb drop on TV. OK, I know it was an accident that he said “fuck” on Good Morning America of all places but he was telling a story (well imitating someone in a story) and quickly apologized. It doesnt bother me one bit. What bothers me is the “ZOMG what?” the media outlets are having about it. Its a fuckin word. Its just a word. People say it all day everyday, even “nice” people. That’s the problem in this country sometimes, putting such value and shock value especially, on something that means next to nothing. I am sure no one’s day was destroyed by Tom Hanks saying fuck. Let;s forget about it and get back to real issues and problems.

This just happened.

The winner of a Florida roach eating contest collapsed and died after eating over a dozen live roaches and some worms as well. We have a word for someone like this…that word is idiot. What the hell were they thinking?

The story of Balpreet Kaur and turning Cyber Bullying into Inspiration. I’ve actually already seen this story here on Tumblr and how Balpreet Kaur, a Sikh woman had her picture taken without her consent and posted on Reddit to be made fun of. Read here for what happened after and what’s still happening. This was really uplifting, and I dont even do really uplifting all that often but I was touched by this woman and this story.

The guy who jumped int the tiger’s den at the Bronx Zoo and got his foot bitten off is now facing charges. I dont know if he was on drugs, ill, or what (I havent read all the articles), but he had to be on another planet altogether to want to “be one with a tiger”. And she had cubs too so you know mama was going to protect her babies. I’m hopeful he will get whatever helps he needs and I’m so glad that zoo officials realize the tiger was just doing what needed to be done and there are no plans to euthanize her.
