I find myself falling into the same patterns and the same routine that I used to oh so dearly dread. Having my morning coffee along side the sun rise before I fall into bed, days without sleep causing my mind to act in a strange manor. Aloneness. A huge area of quietness and insanity, but to me - peace and solitude. I fell back into this realm of vulnerability and dreamy-like state of...

Okay, so I just spent some time reading the comments on an article about Disney princesses and I just want to rant about it for a little bit.
People are saying we need a gay/lesbian/transexual princess/prince. I am all for gay rights, but the fact of the matter is that Disney’s job is to make family friendly that appeal to the masses. I learned in psychology...

I don’t want to be a feminist anymore. Like a five-year-old, I want to close my eyes, stick my fingers in my ears, stomp my feet on the floor and scream “No! No, you cannot make me, I won’t, leave me alone!” I am, simply put, too tired. So very, very tired.
