May 28 people are happiest when starting new projects, implementing their often singular ideas and feeling free in general to bring their thoughts to bear on the world around them. Their work is original and elegant in its simplicity. Because of their straightforward, hard-hitting style and highly individual viewpoints, they usually succeed when they find their métier. Until that time they may flounder, moving from one job or social group to another.

So many conflicting feelings about getting sober…
It’s not the thing that made me depressed/anxious, that started before I ever drank or smoked weed. But this program seems like it could really help me finally be happy and comfortable with myself.
I definitely don’t need to be smoking every day, but I’m not as much lately. And I really drink maybe twice a week and never to the point of ridiculousness…
But I totally have the brain of a raging addict in the way that I think and feel about myself, especially in social/uncomfortable situations.

I’m not always on the news twice in one day, but when I am…
Today is only Monday, yet I’ve been on the news twice in the past 12 hours. Dope, no? I’m making moves and doing things. Putting myself at risk, but it’s worth it. These things are important. I’m proud of myself.
Reblogging for gender neutral bathroom love and opportunity to rant
Coming into the real world out of the Oberlin bubble has made me realize how much I actually fucking love gender neutral bathrooms and this is why:
I was in Starbucks the other day and the women’s restroom was out of order; my instinct from being at school was just to go into the other bathroom because, god damn it, I HAD TO PEE! But I had to stop and think. I said to myself “wait, you’re in the real world, people might actually care if you use the men’s bathroom because you’re not a dude”. While eventually my bladder’s demands were stronger than my apprehension and I did eventually use the men’s restroom, those few minutes of discomfort made me realize, not for the first time but somehow in a much more powerful way, that some people, who for whatever reason don’t fit into the gender binary, feel that EVERY SINGLE TIME THEY HAVE TO PEE IN PUBLIC. Think of all the times you go to a bathroom that isn’t in your house or a friend’s house. Now imagine feeling extremely uncomfortable each and every one of those times. That is a daily reality for thousands of people, and something is very, very wrong with that. But really, that is just wrong.
These were private bathrooms, too, not big rooms with 10 stalls. ONE toilet, ONE sink, and A LOCK ON THE DOOR. So why does it matter which one you use? Is the boy’s toilet different or special? (Spoiler: Nope, it isn’t. I checked, remember?) In fact upon further inspection, the only difference between the two is that in the women’s restroom the trash can is next to the door. So apparently only women use a paper towel to open the door. Guys really, those door knobs are probably filthy, come on now…
So this was basically a really long way of saying I love gender neutral bathrooms and I love Oberlin for being awesome enough to have them. #EndRant
