Calling all the gays

I need to interview four gay people for my psych class. The interviews will take an hour each, though possibly some of that hour will just be filling out a questionnaire. You will be audio-taped, but not duct-taped (unless you find that helpful). There will be very stupid questions involved, because psychology is the stupidest … Continue reading »

Some useful facts about Tasmanian devils

Tasmanian devil moms give birth to a litter of 20 or so Tasmanian devil babies and as soon as they are born the babies start frantically crawling towards the mother’s marsupial pouch. There are only four nipples in the pouch. This means 16 Tasmanian devil babies are born only to die. Personally, I find this … Continue reading »

What do we want? A lot of water and possibly some food and a nice empty room. When do we want it? Now!

I went to the protest on Sunday all hungover and hating crowds. Despite a niggling concern over whether these protests are ever going to do any good, I still feel that we’ve entered an interesting time. People are saying the same thing all over the world. That’s a new phenomenon, at least for my lifetime. … Continue reading »

I think that racist blogger should be keel-hauled

V Day and so on

I got attacked by a band of hippies on Sproul (a plaza, not a drug) today and was forced into taking and wearing a black armband to show my non-support of the war. I feel like an animal that’s been tagged and re-released into the wild. If you talk to me and I seem a … Continue reading »

Wisdom from my Bio Professor:

On mitochondria: “The mitochondria produce ATP, which, unlike food energy, can then be used everywhere else in the cells. It’s much like using a credit card rather than an out-of-state check. ATP: It’s everywhere you want to be.” On chromosomes: “And what has always baffled me is that lesbian pornography is labeled as ‘Triple X’ … Continue reading »

Everyone hates the eggheads

My English prof looks like a sketch of a human, just three hundred-odd bones stacked together haphazardly and covered with a thin net of skin to keep the mosquitos off. She comes rattling through the door in a tame suit with matching lipstick and I cower and quake in my chair like Jaime Lee Curtis … Continue reading »

Well, we finally tied the knot. They spelled his name wrong, but other than that I think that our wedding site is just perfect.
