Arizona gov. signs bill targeting ethnic studies. Everything about this? Everything about this makes me furious. I don't know what the hell is going on down there, Arizona. But it needs to stop ( Read more... )

I'D RATHER BE DEAD IN CALIFORNIA THAN ALIVE IN ARIZONA. Lucille Bluth said it best. But, ugh. That whole situation is such a mess. At least the lawsuits are beginning. This is a due process nightmare - take it to the Supreme Court!

ALSO OMG I AM SO FUCKED FOR MY EXAM FRIDAY. I am about to shower and then leave LJ. For a bit. LOL. I have zero priorities.

She did, she definitely did. I mean the entire thing is already ridiculous, but then the addition of the comments and the frame of mind that the people use as an excuse is just gross and mind-boggling. And then they're like, "we don't understand why people are so angry about it?" REALLY? REALLY? DO YOU WANT US TO GO THERE?

Haha. I've been writing language for the website revamp that we have going on. And I'm pretty sure I've written the same sentence three times. But I hear you.

HAHAHA. I see what you did there. Sure. I'll do it.

I feel like this entire country is in a really frightening place where a lot of hate is being used to fuel "politics" (what up, Tea Party) and they're just barely masquerading behind it with their empty arguments and posturing. I don't like it. It makes me nervous. But then again, I'm in the state of Virginia and last month was National Confederacy Month to honor that grand tradition, so I don't even know, man.

I apparently know all about subleases now, lol.

LOVE IT. Ugh, Friday needs to get here. I miss my days of yore, lol.

I agree. It's frightening to see how ugly people are getting. But it's not just it's being used to fuel politics, it's that politics, and of course, politicians are allowing it to have this major course effect on decision that I'm not comfortable with them making. At all. And no one's safe, even though I'm up in here, in Boston, where hopefully someone decides that pushing Glenn Beck in the Harbor, the next time he visits, would be awesome.

Hahaha.

I'VE STARTED TO WRITE LOST FIC FOR YOU.

Yep! I'm hoping that Zoe gets dropped off between 6-6:30 so that we can head out to the T and meet you guys there. But definitely excited to see you!

Because you know wanting to learn about one's history somehow equates ethnics chauvinism. BECAUSE OKAY I DIDN"T GET THAT MEMO.

Ugh, Arizona. When I get home to NM, I bet things are going to be all 'splodey. Nothing like this would ever happen there, but everyone's gonna be really (rightly) angry, I'm sure.
