(via Psychology Today’s recent cover story, “Are You With the Right Mate?”)
“…Romance itself seeds the eventual belief that we have chosen the wrong partner. The early stage of a relationship, most marked by intense attraction and infatuation, is in many ways akin to cocaine intoxication, observes Christine Meinecke, a clinical psychologist in Des Moines, Iowa. It’s orchestrated, in part, by the...

My love for French movies.
Hors la Loi/Outside the Law is currently being watched. Featured in Cannes Film Festival and it’s in French! It’s about three brothers who have their land stolen and family killed in Algiers, which eventually triggered the revolution for independence. Why can’t American movies more free out of Hollywood’s clutches and tell true and simple stories instead of glorification of...

I hate when people constantly complain about not having a boyfriend/girlfriend or being lonely. Yeah it sucks to be you, not because you’re single, but because you depend on someone else for happiness.

Just like you.
I remember when I was just like you. Freewheeling and unrestrained. The only thing I cared about is what is currently happening in front of me rather than current events. Just like you, I hid in my box whenever something scary happened. I’d be troubled with drama and relationships all the time. Knowing who did what and where it happened. Trying to go through school with an active social life...

Hate no one, no matter how much they’ve wronged you, Live humbly, no matter how wealthy you become, Think positively, no matter how hard life is, Give much, even if you’ve been given little, Keep in touch with the ones who have forgotten you, and forgive who has wronged you, And do not stop praying for the best for those you love.

My ultimate pet peeve
Is people wasting my time. Why do people think its funny whenever I say “you’re a waste of space” or “your existence is irrelevant” cause I’m fucking serious. This bitchass really made me wait for a whole fucking hour where I could’ve been done half an hour ago. I sometimes think knowing too much people is a drag. Having friends is a good thing, but some of you are just hindrances. I’m tryna get...
Broke as hell.
I spend too much money going out. Even if I don’t go out, I end up online shopping. I can’t keep doing this. My current pay is 30% of what I had 2 years ago. Meaning, I was broke back then and now I’m scraping shit for the same shit I used to do with 30% of what I had available. Fuck me, completely just fuck me.

More Politicians Withdraw Support of PIPA and SOPA
cheatsheet:
More politicians have retracted their support of either or both the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Protect IP Act (PIPA) since Rep. Ben Quayle (R-AZ) and Rep. Lee Terry (R-NB), two co-sponsors of SOPA, did so yesterday and this morning.
Also one of our intrepid Tumblrers went down to the offices of New York Senators to report on the “emergency meet” of New York tech scene.
