To clear my mind, I crafted a fluffy fluff post about hair & ~beauty~.

You see, I crave attention. But more than that, I crave completion. CLOSURE. I've been in a deep slump. I cannot finish. I can't finish blog posts, short stories I like, homework. One of these is pretty bad but the other two are HORRIBLE.

I know it's been either really quiet or just flat out moody around here because I am indeed quiet and moody...but it'll get better soon, now that I've hopped over the hurdle that is MIDTERMS.Fun fact: I actually only had one official mid term. I'll be back to posting somewhat regularly when I get better...AGAIN.

You see, it's not even that way 80% of the time, I'm actually rather cheery sometimes. Or, you know, just numb.Anyway, I didn't have anything particular in mind today as I'm trying to do at least 2 things at once--both of which very important--and frankly I'm about to pass out on my keyboard.

So, apparently my state is pro-rape somehow as both senators voted against Sen Franken's anti-rape amendment. You know, it passed anyway but I'm still horrified that 30 republicans decided to split hairs on rape, dude. Really? Way to value women you fucking cases. Ohhh but it's not over yet, look at this HuffPo article.

They wear funny turbans & are brown (and have beards) thus = Muslim! They're just asking for it. ... There has been a case in America (at LEAST one) where a Sikh man was attacked because some white dudes assumed he was Muslim. After 9/11. Nevermind the 10 kinds of wrong there but really.

Until now, it was believed that this exceptionally high infection rate was due to bisexual African-American men.
