I don’t care how long it takes.
Sooner or later, my family will have to look out the window.

![Things began to make sense when I was five. It all started with the erector set. It was logical. Reliable. Nothing else was. Hardware was easy to understand. People were different. They were unpredictable. One minute everything would be fine, the next it’d be all different. But when people disappoint insert tab ‘A’ into slot ‘b’ would never let you down.

1. Be Impeccable With Your Word
Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.2. Don’t Take Anything Personally
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.3. Don’t Make Assumptions
Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.4. Always Do Your Best
Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.

It’s a uniquely American prudishness. You can write the most detailed, vivid description of an ax entering a skull, and nobody will say a word in protest. But if you write a similarly detailed description of a penis entering a vagina, you get letters from people saying they’ll never read you again. What the hell? Penises entering vaginas bring a lot more joy into the world than axes entering skulls.

I think to some people this is a big, messy, grey world but at least there are some sharp distinctions, like the distinctions between gender and sexual orientation and those are just lines that should always be hard lines. But saying that simplicity is natural is idiotic because the most natural thing in the world is complexity, and gender and sexual orientation are proven over and over again to not be firm lines. The whole world is grey and if you just appreciate that, if you just understand and appreciate that, it’s beautiful.

Mary Jamis, a lesbian woman, was ARRESTED yesterday after she and her partner sought a marriage license in North Carolina.
Share this if you think it’s outrageous.

My sentiments exactly Wil Wheaton.
Yeah, when did Hooters start stocking up on hot gentlemen instead of busty ladies?
Oh no she didn’t!
Dear Cobie Smulders,
Saying women can now enjoy comic books and superheroes because of the movie’s increased emphasis on female characters like Black Widow, Pepper Pots (really?) and, your very own character in The Avengers, Agent Maria Hill, is like saying “Thank goodness for Princess Peach or women wouldn’t be able to enjoy Super Mario!”
Sincerely,
Women who enjoy all kinds of things devoid of female characters
