Here is something people should know about me: I'm not afraid to lose friends/acquaintances over political/social issues. If you're an asshole who upholds bullshit ideals, I don't want to be your friend anyway and I'm chill with you not talking to me anymore.
Oh my god xanax.
June 2012
Salty white queers trying to tell me that Dan Savage is someone I should like and support:
no wait
I think this may just be my favorite use of the “tried” stars yet
ATTN: anyone else with anxiety, particularly PD
Have you ever had non-anxious feelings mutate into anxious ones? A couple days ago I had this rush of euphoria (seemingly sourceless; probably a combination of very little sleep + waaaay more coffee than I should ever allow myself to have) and within minutes it turned from yay happy excited fun into OH GOD OH GOD panic.
I have gotten panic attacks from sudden physical exertion before, because it spikes my heart rate and breathing, and mimics enough of the physical symptoms of a panic attack to trick my body into having one. But I haven’t gone from pleasant excitement to frightened agitation ever before. It was almost spooky.
Note to self: get better sleep, don’t have more than two cups of weak coffee per day. I forget that since my anxiety got suddenly worse this past year or so that I can’t tolerate as much as I used to. The one stimulant I love and thought I could handle is finally starting to give me more trouble than it’s worth. Probably gonna start drinking more decaf.
Yes yes yes yes. Sometimes when I’m manic I get really excited about going to do a certain thing or to see a certain person or I get all these creative ideas all at once with without a proper outlet and I get so worked up that it turns into anxiety. Also, if I have to piss and I hold it in for too long that can turn into really bad anxiety that lasts long after I’ve finally taken a piss. I rarely ever drink coffee, but if I do I HAVE to have a xanax soon after because my heart will start to race and boom panic attack.
why hasnt the joke come up on my dash yet
that oreo finally manufactured the cookies all the allies have been looking for
except they dont fucking exist and you cant fucking eat them and i am tired of hearing about them so fuck off

Giant corporation creates fake rainbow colored product in some effort to show that it probably doesn’t want to kill all the gay people. Gay people can’t believe you aren’t more impressed by this ~*revolutionary step forward*~ and aren’t more thankful for cynical and opportunistic corporate scraps….
I know that it’s all corporate bullshit, and no, I don’t expect it to magically stop all the murdering of queer people. I just like that it’s becoming cool and acceptable to stand up publicly and support gay rights. I don’t see anything wrong with that and I don’t think you should be so cruel to the LGBT people who disagree with you.
I don’t see how one can simultaneously hold the belief that it’s opportunistic corporate bullshit AND that it’s “cool.” And lol at criticizing shallow and irrational thought processes being called “cruel.” Sounds like a tone argument to me. Gay people that swallow this crap can go cry me a river and let me swim in the glorious tears. I don’t enjoy being lazily tacked onto the end of an acronym that describes a mythical community that completely ignores the T letter and being told that “gay rights” has anything to do with me.

THESE MAGIC FAKE COOKIES WILL STOP QUEERS FROM BEING MURDERED, DON’T YOU KNOW? STOP BEING SO HATEFUL AND JUST LET ME ENJOY THESE IMAGINARY MORSELS OF SOLIDARITY.
Omg remember how yesterday I was like NEVER WANT TO HEAR ABOUT OREOS AGAIN and today I’ve pretty much blogged exclusively about Oreos. That didn’t last long.

The only people who give a shit about gay Oreos are stupid shallow fucking fatphobic gay people who love the warm fuzzy feeling they get when voraciously dining on any meager scraps that any dumb corporation will cynically throw at them and stupid fucking…
Wow. I just am happy when my community gets support that was long overdue. I don’t understand all that hatred.
Y’all, Oreos made a fake product that is rainbow colored. “Gay rights” are finally here so you can all go home now*~*~*~
Is faptivism a word?
Self-congratulatory fake activism that just makes the faptivist feel so good?
Faptivists buy lots of Toms and have KONY2012 posters up and maybe even donated some money to that elderly monitor lady who got harassed on the bus.
But they think it’s okay to say the n-word and dress up in war paint for “native american theme parties” and make sandwich jokes. Their faptivism acts like an activist carbon offset for all the oppressive things they do and support daily.
Raise your hand if you enjoy employing tone arguments against oppressed groups of people when they are angry
so I can get you the hell off my dashboard!
Tumblr, I'm asking nicely. Please stop screaming.
NOPE.
You, of all people, who I thought was interested in honoring other people and their wishes regarding their space. Anyway. This is a boundary that I will not allow to be breached again.
You haven’t demonstrated any behavior that gives me any reason to think that my words will be taken with anything other than contempt, so I won’t waste them here, and I’ll spare us both the trouble. I’m also not interested in the kind of public brawl that characterizes your blog. I considered sending this to you privately, but no.
Hahaha whaaaaat on earth. I won’t accept tone arguments from anyone, but especially not from cis gay men. I’ll scream on my blog all I want and when people make passive aggressive posts on theirs about wanting me and others to stop “screaming” I don’t really know how else you expect me to react other than basically just saying “NO.” Of course I’m going to treat passive aggressive tone arguments with contempt. If this is news to you, I wonder why you’re even here in the first place. Gurl, bye.

I’m really really really tired of having to piss every five minutes.
Tumblr, I'm asking nicely. Please stop screaming.
NOPE.
The only people who give a shit about gay Oreos are stupid shallow fucking fatphobic gay people who love the warm fuzzy feeling they get when voraciously dining on any meager scraps that any dumb corporation will cynically throw at them and stupid fucking social conservatives who think that boycotting a COOKIE will somehow make gay people go away. I hate you both. You’re all fucking stupid.
And to anyone boycotting buttfucking oreos, HEY GUESS WHAT! IF YOU THINK GAYS ARE ICKY, YOU AIN’T SEEN SHIT. WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE MY GENDER, THAT WILL REALLY MAKE YOU PUKE. THERE ARE THINGS INSIDE MY BRAIN THAT WOULD MAKE YOUR HEAD SPIN SO FUCKING FAST THAT YOU WOULDN’T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO PRETEND TO BOYCOTT FIRST.
GOD I CAN’T BELIEVE I’M HAVING TO FUCKING RANT ABOUT OREOS. I HATE YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR MAKING ME DO THIS.I’d like to add that people who are all OMG CONSUMER POLITICS! I LOVE OREO NOW! I WILL BUY OREOS I LOVE OREOS GOD BLESS YOU OREOS are also listing smug shit like OH WELL IF ANTI-GAY PPL ARE GOING TO BOYCOTT OREO, GUESS WHO ELSE YOU HAVE TO BOYCOTT?! LOLOL (then they post a huge list of piece of shit companies that are supposedly “pro-gay” in some extremely bare-bones pandering way or another, companies that also exploit the fuck out of people all over the planet whether it’s the people who live where they get or make their materials all the way down to their workers, as well as animals and the planet miles beyond your usual piece of shit companies)
Do you all even see what you’re doing there at all
THANK YOUUUUUUUU.
Someone please create a transgender Oreo just so Cathy Brennan has something to do. I don't want her to get bored.

Why I never want to see another post about goddamn gay Oreos.
I’m mainly sick and tired of reading about this stupid gay Oreo bullshit because someone will post an idiotic Facebook status about boycotting Oreos and then a bunch of gay people will just flood that thread with shit like “HAHAHA GOOD BECAUSE YOU ARE SO FUCKING FAT YOU REALLY SHOULDN’T BE EATING OREOS ANYWAY YOU FATASS! YOU ARE SO FAT! ISN’T BEING FAT SOMETHING THAT IS INHERENTLY FUNNY? HAHA FAT PEOPLE ARE SO GROSS.” Of course gay people would find a way to turn some stupid fucking gay cookie bullshit into an excuse to ruthlessly spew bile all over fat people. Of course gay people would take any chance to turn something vaguely positive into non-stop, round the clock fat jokes and fat shaming. Hey fatphobic gay people: I fucking hate you just as much as those conservative dickwads do. The only difference is that my reasons for hating you are completely legitimate.

So I had this weird fainting spell thing at work two days ago where my hands went numb and my heart was beating out of my chest and i couldn’t breathe and I was really dizzy and then I just passed out on my desk. My boss said I was really pale and asked if she should call an ambulance and I was like NO NO NO NEVER so she told me to go home which is where I’ve been for the past two days just fucking exhausted, unable to get out of bed and having terrible headaches for no reason. I just got out of the doctor and she’s worried about diabetes so I got bloodwork done to test my blood sugar, my kidneys, my thyroid etc and she also wants to scan my head. Now I have to wait for the test results and I’m just like ughhhhh goddamnit fuck.
If I always have to wait an hour+ after my scheduled appointment time before the doctor will even seat me in a room, why can’t my appointment just be at 10am instead of 9am because seriously omg 9am.
I can't believe I'm doing this.
I’m writing something about why straight people can’t reclaim the slur ‘queer’.
WHY IS THIS A THING THAT I HAVE TO DO.
WHY DOES THIS NEED TO BE DONE.
I hate you, world.
I feel like a total fucking asshole because right now I don’t feel like reading anything about gender or being trans or stonewall or depression or stupid gay people or healthcare or Oreos or Cathy fucking Brennan. Like I just want to eat my feelings and ignore the internet (lol yeah right) and anxiously make it through my shitty doctor appt tomorrow morning and go to sleep and not wake up until at least three days later while AbFab plays in the background the whole time. How many privileges am I even exercising by thinking these thoughts? Ugh.

GM grass linked to Texas cattle deaths →
cbsnews.com
paintedgoat: mamitah: americawakiewakie:
A mysterious mass death of a herd of cattle has prompted a federal investigation in Central Texas.
Preliminary test results are blaming the deaths on the grass the cows were eating when they got sick, reports CBS Station KEYE.
The cows dropped dead several weeks ago on an 80-acre ranch owned by Jerry Abel in Elgin, just east of Austin.
Abel says he’s been using the fields for cattle grazing and hay for 15 years. “A lot of leaf, it’s good grass, tested high for protein - it should have been perfect,” he told KEYE correspondent Lisa Leigh Kelly.
The grass is a genetically-modified form of Bermuda known as Tifton 85 which has been growing here for 15 years, feeding Abel’s 18 head of Corriente cattle. Corriente are used for team roping because of their small size and horns.
“When we opened that gate to that fresh grass, they were all very anxious to get to that,” said Abel.
Three weeks ago, the cattle had just been turned out to enjoy the fresh grass, when something went terribly wrong.
“When our trainer first heard the bellowing, he thought our pregnant heifer may be having a calf or something,” said Abel. “But when he got down here, virtually all of the steers and heifers were on the ground. Some were already dead, and the others were already in convulsions.”
Within hours, 15 of the 18 cattle were dead.
“That was very traumatic to see, because there was nothing you could do, obviously, they were dying,” said Abel.
Preliminary tests revealed the Tifton 85 grass, which has been here for years, had suddenly started producing cyanide gas, poisoning the cattle.
“Coming off the drought that we had the last two years … we’re concerned it was a combination of events that led us to this,” Dr. Gary Warner, an Elgin veterinarian and cattle specialist who conducted the 15 necropsies, told Kelly.
What is more worrisome: Other farmers have tested their Tifton 85 grass, and several in Bastrop County have found their fields are also toxic with cyanide. However, no other cattle have died.
Scientists at the U.S. Department of Agriculture are dissecting the grass to determine if there might have been some strange, unexpected mutation.
Until it can be determined why this grass suddenly began producing cyanide, Abel is keep his livestock far away.
“The grasshoppers are enjoying it now,” he said.
Somebody please correct me if I’m wrong, but here are some things that make this article stink of bullshit:
1) Tifton 85 is NOT genetically modified grass. Considering this article is stating that “GM grass poisons a buttload of cows to death” whether or not the grass is actually GM is something you should probably get right.
2) This: “Another small problem is that grass-based arsenic-poisoning is not new or uncommon. In fact, in dry areas under poor grazing management, grass-based cyanide poisoning is pretty common, as the Merck Veterinary manual makes clear.
Most grass contains cyanide, and cyanide and selenium poisoning in grass-fed cattle occurs all the time. Selenium buildup is generally due to bad soil, but cyanide-poisoning in grass-fed cattle is generally due to improper grazing on dry soil or on low-cut grass that has a low-water content.”
Things just got significantly less “mysterious.”
