I find that I really don’t mind at all when people accidentally tell me things that happen in Game of Thrones before I find out about them.
Which is a good thing, because I’d kind of have to stop leaving my house or reading my dash if I did mind.
If you’re young, try not to get involved with the “too cool” crowd. That quickly becomes the crowd that’s too cool to work hard, too cool to take chances, and too cool to succeed.

I’m pretty sure this applies to when you’re not-so-young, too.
Is it creepy if I buy a chain saw? Would you be scared? You know what, Ryan Gosling’s character in Drive wouldn’t have asked that. We would just go and buy a chain saw like it was nothing, like it was a daily thing I do.

You can’t be shocking, you can only create chaos—and confusion is the best form of communication.

Say What Now of the Day: Pastor Charles L. Worley of Providence Road Baptist Church in Maiden, North Carolina, went on an anti-President Obama rant earlier this month during a sermon. Then he got off topic:
I figured a way to get rid of all the lesbians and queers. Build a great, big, large fence — 150- or 100-mile-long — put all the lesbians in there… Do the same thing with the queers and the homosexuals and have that fence electrified so they can’t get out… And you know what, in a few years, they’ll die.
He ended his sermon with this thought:
God have mercy. It makes me pukin’ sick to think about — I don’t even whether or not to say this in the pulpit — can you imagine kissing some man?
Notice the “Amens” from the congregation throughout.
I’m honestly not even convinced this is real. It deeply saddens me that there are people in this country who still think this way and that, what’s more, they’re boosted up by agreeing crowds rather than greeted with awkward silences a la Ann Romney.
EXCITING NEWS!
I just found out I have officially been awarded a blogging scholarship for my session abroad this summer!
This is really cool for me because, even though the scholarship isn’t huge, it’s really cool that somebody likes my blogging enough to want to pay me to do it. Honestly, I would love nothing more than to be a “real blogger” with an actual readership and stuff, and it’s really pretty exciting to take a step in that direction.
I’m pretty sure I’ll have a designated URL for my posts and I will definitely post it here once I know it, but I will also be copying my posts onto this blog. So, for the months of May and June, NYU-sponsored posts about living and acting in Florence, Italy will be coming to you via vegetarianbacon. It’s gonna be an adventure.
A new video in which I discuss traditional marriage, religion, intersexuality, the idea of marriage as a covenant, and the legal rights of gay people to marry.
Everyone in the world should watch this video. This is simply the smartest, most sense-making, most peaceful argument I have ever heard on the subject, and I genuinely believe that many of the world’s problems could be fixed if we tried to engage in debates that sound more like this one. I am proud to live on the same planet as this man.
