Ricky Gervais: ”Wow. No God. If Mum had lied to me about God, had she also lied to me about Santa? yes, but who cares? The gifts kep coming. And so did the gifts of my newfound atheism.

shit list: gutter punks
morninggloria:
Every summer, these gutter punks/crusty punks invade Wicker Park and kind of lounge around stinking up the 6 point intersection and being assholes about the fact that I’m not giving them money every time I pass by. They use the outlets at Starbucks to charge their cell phones and tie off and shoot heroin on Pierce street across Damen from Big Star (like they were yesterday...

– Mary Pipher, PhD, Reviving Ophelia This breaks my heart. (via screamedatthemakebelieve)
I simply don’t understand how people can think this way.

story time
Today mom was telling me that a neighbor noticed the extensive scarring on her arms and asked if she has psoriasis. She does not. Mom explained that she has a nervous habit of picking skin on her arms, from her wrists almost all the way up to her shoulder. In an interesting turn of genetic misfortune, I inherited a similar habit and my arms look just as bad, if not worse than mom’s....

Tumblr automatically changes longer text posts to links when you reblog. This is annoying. But fear not! Help is at hand.
Click ‘reblog’
On the reblog page, click ‘as…’ (at the top, next to ‘Reblog Link’)

Done!
Oh thank god.
Neat!
