"For once I would like to see gay people standing up and fighting for a cause greater than their own. (If you can site otherwise I'd like to hear one). Us white, straight, men have to do it all the time."

Because white, straight men have many times had their rights suppressed and because gay people don't care about things like poverty, genocide, abortion, murder, rape, the economy and many more issues!

"I'm not gay therefore i would not know the prejudice the gay community experiences. But from what i witness day to day in life and on t.v., being gay is highly accepted. Look at MTV, how many gay people are on reality shows? Being gay is hardly out of the norm these days. SO if a person decides to live this life style, he will not be crucified as bad as you depict."

Because life on TV is what life in the real world is like!

"I agree that same sex marriage will have a snowball effect. Is it a 30 year old mans right to have sex with a 12 year old girl? He was born that way and he did not chose to be a molester, and he can't help the way he feels. This argument is soon to arise in America."

Because a twelve-year-old-girl is a legal adult and it would of course be absolutely consensual because a twelve-year-old-girl would know exactly what was going on!

"i didnt say i didnt agree with your choice to be gay, however it IS a choice."

Because straight people know EXACTLY what it's like to be gay!

"marriage is DEFINED by the church and the government GIVES those rights to married couples due to their ability to contribute reproductivly to society, and by providing a family structure."

Because old people, infertile people, and people that don't even want kids aren't allowed to get married!

"Marriage is a formally defined institution based on an event which originated through religious customs. Come up with something else for homosexuals. Other than that I have no problem with giving homosexual couples more rights."

Because separate but equal institutions always work and always worked in the past! Yay for segregation!

Let's just make it simple and allow everyone to get married. You don't like that? Well. Let's ban government sanctioned marriage and only allow civil unions for everyone. Leave the marriage part to the religious institutions from which the definition of marriage was absolutely derived.

Chitt's life really, really sucks right now.

( Hoshit. )

Ok, as of two minutes ago I'm 6089 words in. If I was doing the minimum amount required I would be at 5100 today. I plan to get to 7000 by the end of the day.

Just a little summary of what's happened... kind of.

The pain toll is now: four human deaths, one devoured albino squirrel, a destitute dog that eats the albino squirrel, and a battered mother.

I don't even want to say what I'm planning for the mother. It just came to me right now. And it's UGH. Worse than death. Yes. She is going to be expelled. That was lame.

But shit! No wonder Chitt is going crazy!

mood: geeky tags: albino squirrels, crazy, death, destitute dog, major death, nanowrimo, what the fuck

So I started my novel a while ago. And it's only the second page and I've already killed someone. I guess that's what happens when you only have extremely vague plot outlines.

These are the first two paragraphs:
“You ignorant slut!” Her voice was shaky and erratic. I knew there were only three women from whom the voice could be coming, but I didn’t turn around to see who it really was. It could have been my sister, who was just teasing; it could have been my stepsister, who wanted to be as close to me as my sister was, but was afraid; or it could have been my ex-girlfriend. This option was the most likely because the closer I analyzed the voice the more hate-filled it seemed.
“You fucking ignorant slut!” Yes. It was definitely my ex-girlfriend. I had recently broken up with her, obviously. “Turn around and talk to me!” I waited to comply until her claw like hands gripped my shoulder with a force that could rip off my arm.

And this is my favorite line so far:

They are the epitome of the radical liberal and I could never live up to their expectations.


EDIT: Make that four people killed in the first six pages. WHAT THE HECK!!!???

I haven't put a lot from school up yet. I'll probably put up the stuff that I like that I haven't put up after the first reading. So yeah. :)

SO. After two weeks of being in school and interacting... I retook that personality test thing...
( Ye tests )

School. Tomorrow. Holy. Crap.

I will be at school in approximately eight and a half hours. BUT THAT'S JUST TOMORROW.

School starts at eight... normally. Tomorrow is orientation. Holy crap. School.

Do not fret, my children. All that was wrong in the previous post is now right.

So, first of all... I found this guy that plays good, original acoustic songs on YouTube. He also does some weird techno ones that are pretty good, but the acoustic ones are WAAAY better. Click Me. Now.

In other news, I'm going to spaz about something that only hidden_eden will truly understand. Others might, but she knows it up close and personal... kind of.

So, I'm writing a book. Last night while I was falling asleep I was planning it in my head, and I got a lot of it worked out. I still don't know what's going to happen in the second half or last third or whatever, but that doesn't matter, 'cause I'm not there yet. And of course, there is an antagonist. I know the who, what, where, and how, but I don't know the most important: the why! AAAHHH!!!! I have NO IDEA why she's doing what she's doing.

She obviously has to have some sort of mental disorder, like schizophrenia, or maybe she's a sociopath, but that wouldn't explain why she would do what she's doing on such a large scale. Did she witness some tragic event as a small child? Does she have a vision of a perfect world in her head and have the resources to make it come true? I don't know! I spent an hour trying to figure it out last night (no joke or exaggeration) and that was as much as I came up with. Every time I would have an idea, I would dismiss it saying (yes, saying, I was talking to myself) it's not believable or that it's too cliché. Ugh.

By the way, did you know that today, August 6, 62 years ago, we bombed Hiroshima? Kind of a depressing anniversary if you ask me.... Thank you "This Day in History" widget for that marvelous information.

mood: aggravated tags: blarg, bomb, hiroshima, omg good music, rawr, stupid motivations, talking to myself, the invisible room, ugh

So... I've been pretty much in denial that school is starting in less than a month. Until I saw this post: Damn. It just hit me... kind of like "Holy shit, school is going to start, and it's a new school so it will be hardcore and I'll have to be mighty social the first while (and then I'll crawl back into my shell. XD)."

I guess making new friends won't be very hard since I'll be stuck with the same people for three hours everyday... unless they leave... so yeah.

AND I'll have to get my brain working since I haven't REALLY had to use it since umm... January ish?

At least I'll have a kewl person to carpool with. ;)

OH speaking of carpooling... I've been driving lots. Last Wednesday I drove up to the cabin... then I drove everyday up there... then I drove back home yesterday (in a BMW OMG! *eye roll* Cars aren't important to me. As long as I can see and mostly survive a crash it's all right with me.). So if I do this right I could have my license by the end of the month so around when school starts? AAAAHHHHH!!!!! School again! Make it go away! T_T

Soo... I'm down at my aunt's cabin sleeping because the only available room was right next to someone that snores REALLY loudly. And I'm sitting on the bottom bunk and the person sleeping above me is talking a lot... and it's funny because I'm only half listening.

I drove in "downtown" Rice Lake today... it was... hardcore. XD

I DON'T HAVE TO WEAR MY SPLINT OR SLING ANYMORE


Time to get working on that word count again.

mood: excited tags: arm, happy, hooray, itchy, joy

So I just got back from the doctor. We did some xrays and my right arm is still fine, and the fracture in my left arm has shrunk a lot, also the fatty tissue or something that is almost always there when the elbow is fractured is going away. So I'm still in the splint, nstuff, but next Wednesday I'm going to see an orthopedist or something and they're going to look again and decide if I need a full blown cast, surgery, still my splint, or just a sling!! Exciting.

Also, I get to go see Chicago tonight! :D

mood: cheerful tags: arm, chicago, doctor, hardcore, musical

So... I did a dumb thing.

Here's the story.

( someone shoot me plskthx )

Oh and hidden_eden I'm not sure how much of the writing I'm going to be able to do. I'll either have to spread out the words over the next lots of days or say yesterday didn't count or something.
