This old world is going to reel and rock.

Let’s talk about harassment.
The way I see it, there’s two kinds: physical and verbal. Unfortunately, I have been the victim of both on multiple occasions. I’m not going to say one form is worse than the other, because they’re both terrifying in an unexplainable way.
The thing about being harassed is the level of helplessness and [...]

[this is a post about funerals, ghosts, mental institutions, depression, old friends, gambling, and other things]

I think I’m getting hot flashes at 24. Several people recently told me that I look significantly younger than my age and I took it as a great complement before I realized the meaning behind being flattered. I believe being excited over not looking your age or older means you’re getting old.
This post [...]

Me gustan las estrellas.

I dyed my hair too. It’s…different. Think: Jean Grey. Unintentionally, of course.
I saw a girl in one of my classes today wearing a shirt that simply said: Jesuit. I suddenly wished I was a Jesuit so I could wear that shirt too. Shortly thereafter, another girl in the same class entered wearing a different Jesuit [...]

The night is here and the day is gone and the world spins madly on.

Yesterday, thredd made a comment on the TD site: “so nobody cares about wot happens when the largest ‘civilian massacre’ happens in the history of our country?”
Yes, Dear Speedy, we do care. We just have weird ways of showing it. It did occur to me the other day how we at Team Daria seem to [...]

He revenged our constant jeering with his every word and deed.

If you’re a fan of Pulp Fiction and typography, you simply must check this out. (Profanity warning, so don’t turn it up loud in front of your three-year-old, unless you want him running around all day yelling, “English, mother fucker, do you speak it?” That might be kind of funny, though. Oh well. Use your [...]

It’s the same world, honey, that has brought you down as the one that’s going to pick you up.

Jane apologizes for her once again lack of updating. Jane has been a tad bit under the weather and unable to come up with witty repartee. Jane would like you to know that Joseph Arthur will be releasing a new album on the seventeenth of this month. Jane will stop talking in third person now.

[avast, ye land-loving scurvy dogs!]

Ahoy there mates, the Dread Pirate Dismarum has officially returned from holiday and is ready to sail the briny deep of the digital world again!
The RIAA has hacked me off for the last time and is well on it’s way for rendering the last safe haven for music, AllOfMP3.com, obsolete. It is, in short, [...]

The worst is the waiting.

It’s because I blink too much that I’ll never be able to make it as a writer. It’s a logical train of thought, actually. (Have I written about this before on here? I think I have. Oh well. I’d scan the archives, perhaps, but I blink too much and it’d take too long.)
I blink too [...]

Here in the cold, soon we’ll know what tragedy is.

You may or may not have noticed a recent trend wherein a significant number of people (mostly of the female denomination) are suddenly using the word “Seriously” as their every-other-word word. “Seriously” can often be used as a declarative statement but is most commonly used as an interrogative statement. Seriously? Seriously. Seriously?
In case you’re otherwise [...]

[ow……………….that one really hurt]

Sometimes I think about documenting my bruises on here. Not for you, but more for me. I get them in weird places now and frequently. You can see them in the shape of heel marks against shin bones, purple and blue fingerprints around my wrists and shoulders, nail marks against my palms, [...]
