Eddie would have to wait until his lunch break to see this new, hot, weird chick. He wondered which flavor of weird she was. Art weird? Theater weird? Band weird?
Weird weird?
He shrugged. He liked weird.
In other words, you’re the new girl in town, and Eddie is intrigued.

I recently had surgery, and at the time I came home, I had both my cat and one of my grandma's cats staying with me.
- Within hours of surgery, I wake up from a nap to my cat gently sniffing at my incisions with great alarm.
- I was not allowed to shower the first day after surgery, and the cats, seeing that The Large Cat is not observing its cleaning ritual, decided I must be gravely disabled and compensated by licking all the exposed skin on my arms, face, and legs.
- I currently have to sleep with a pillow over my abdomen because my cat insists on climbing on top of me and covering my incisions with her body while I sleep (which is very sweet but not exactly comfortable without the pillow). She also lays across me facing my bedroom door, presumably on guard for attackers who may try to harm me while I'm sleeping and injured.
For me, tumblr is a recreational space. And am not political by nature.
BUT.
All you folks who are thinking you're not going to vote in the [fill in the blank] election because there is not a candidate you align with fully? Or one you even like?
Vote anyway. Vote AGAINST someone if you can't vote for someone. Pick the lesser of two evils.
And then pour yourself and drink, sit down somewhere, and realize that, depressing as it may be, you will likely never have a candidate that you are 100% behind.
I started voting in 1989 and have never once voted FOR someone. It's always been against the other candidate. There's no glass slipper, people. You have to make do.
Not liking both candidates is not an excuse. This is not about you. This is about your community and the world you share with the rest of us.
a couple years back i made a post about life advice and one of the tips i gave was 'cheat at solitaire if you want to', and i've been thinking of that since.
