Lo Mein
Are there any NYC transplants who have found acceptable lo mein in Chicago? Five years here and I still have not found a single place that will serve it up right. I’m talking thick noodles. Not this weird skinny noodle shit.

Regarding this…  i see your point about relations between groups but i can’t help but think that phrases like die cis scum (even if expressed as a hatred for all cis people) makes no differentiation between allies and phobics but i hardly want to talk about my cis privilege here.. Here’s why I hate the word “ally.” Because no matter what, trans ally or trans phobic,...

annaetc replied to your post: Buffy the Vampire Slayer 3x20 - The Prom Please tell me that you’ve seen “She’s All That” with that super awkward and totally ridiculous line dance (??) scene at the prom where Usher (!?) is the DJ (of course) and it’s just like WHAAT is HAAPPENING. Jesus H. Christ, that song… YES IT IS THE BEST PART.

jakke asked: Okay so the study seems to be available online *only* at darksideofsleepingpills ~døt~ cøm. You can check it out yourself, but seriously it's even worse than the URL makes it sound. Pretty sure that the credibility of this research is actually negative - like, having read it makes me *more* inclined to start taking sleeping pills should the need ever arise.

jakke replied to your quote: In their latest study, Kripke’s team analyzed… Yeah but it doesn’t look like they control for other observable variation very well. So it’s probably just picking up some other kind of correlation. Totally. I highly doubt that hypnotics are causing the death… but it’s a very interesting correlation. I’d love to see the breakdown for people with...

Where the fuck is Dixon?
I need to take the LPN STEP Test in order to get into the RN completion program. My only option is fucking Dixon, IL on a Saturday morning. What. The. Fuck? If anybody is free to drive me to the middle of nowhere at the asscrack of dawn on Saturday March 17th, please hit me up. This is an instance where I register first and figure out how the hell to get there in the mean time.
