+ first, to get out of my system: oh my god I hate homophobes so much sometimes. SO MUCH. agh agh agh. in World View class last Friday, the question was "What happens when an individual's rights trump the community's rights?" and a girl answered that "It's like with homosexuals! Their right to be homosexual shouldn't trump the community's right to not be associated with homosexuals because that's just nasty!" (paraphrased- she was a lot more roundabout about it). I did my best not to punch her in the face, and while I was doing that my teacher (bless her) pointed out that what if the majority of the community was homosexual? does their majority right then trump yours? and then she and her mother (who sits in on the class and helps out) were both like "but it's so wrong! and there are books! in the library! on homosexuals! where anyone could read them!" and once again I tried very hard not to hurt them. I was quite reasonable! I was unaware I could be reasonable in the midst of such rage.
I still wanted to punch them though.
+ had an anti-social weekend, didn't want the week to start, but oh well.
+ ... I suck at staying on track on anything. Including NaNo. I always manage to come back at the end, but I just don't manage to stay on track. have to get a lot of wordcount in today, and stop procrastinating.
+ SCHOOL. ACK.
+ ETA: OH YEAH. As part of my procrastination regime for NaNo, I've been binge-watching The Sarah Jane Adventures, which I've meant to watch for ages and of course neglected to do until I didn't actually have any time for it. But it's loads of fun, and I adore Luke, and I miss Maria and her dad but Rani's pretty nice, and Clyde reminds me of Mickey, who I loved to pieces. And Sarah Jane! How can you not love her?
