January 2011
Also
Arizona is NOT proposing this. The people who live there and their kids ( present and future) are being THREATENED with xenophobic racism becoming law.
It’s one group AUTOMATICALLY being granted legitimacy so as to appear that the reporting is covering a real political movement rather than racism and miserlyness of spirit gone ape shit.

NO democracy now! These proposals would not revoke citizenship of “Immigrant” children—they would revoke citizenship of US CITIZENS. They are NOT immigrants, they are US NATURAL BORN CITIZENS.

I’m not a fan of the US cultural habit of turning political turmoil in faraway lands into a gawkworthy spectator sport. I came to this realization in the aftermath of the 1989 protests in Tiananmen Square, as it gradually dawned on me that sheltered, largely clueless people who had no stake in…

I am seriously and utterly depressed.
I overate myself into a dress size I have only seen when I was prone to taking razors and hot combs to the insides of my wrists.
I am messy and untidy and don’t sing or really watch movies or read or write in any way resembling the way i used to
I am not entirely anhedonic but I’m gorgeing
