People’s District is still so awesome.
I thought that giving out free hugs was a nice way to share the love and interact with strangers. A lot of people go through really hard days and if I can make their day lighter, I know it will make both of our days brighter. Plus, everybody loves hugs! If you can’t express something through words on the street then expressing something physically...

Obama’s State of the Union Address In 5 Minutes — Daily Intel
Here’s 7 good clips, also, from Gawker.tv, HuffPo’s top 10 lines of the speech.
And here’s the full transcript from WhiteHouse.gov
Loving it.
I was present for the last 20ish minutes of the State of the Union and fell asleep from almost all of them. What I gathered was Obama was all, “Guys, this is haaard,...

The first thing I thought of when I got the AP Mobile alert wasn’t “Well, shit, the author of my favorite short story ever known to man is now dead, I’m devastated.” It was “Well, shit, I didn’t get my death pool together in time, I’m devastated.”
Goddammit, muppetpants.
Teh crazies exist, apparently.
Jenna O: oooomg i'm so stoked for you i hope it is super ultra amazing and rekindles your hope for the world and intelligent people and oh watch out for the crazies, there are bound to be crazies, and grad school crazies are even worse than undergrad crazies because they feel legitimized in their crazy.
Assorted things:
Stopped bringing my laptop to class. Upside: this enforces note-taking by hand, which means I pick up on stuff I would have otherwise missed were I going between like eight tabs and Pages. Downside: I have a class-sized break between 12:15 and 2PM where I get a whole lot of work done and then run out of things to do so I sit in Footnotes and fiddle on my phone because I really don’t want...

He has had that awesome old-man-on-the-Amtrak grin on his face for like 10 straight minutes and GOD do I love him for it. And he is not just applauding, he is fucking CHEERING. If I could go to court with Joe Biden sitting behind me, clapping and smiling to the judge the entire...
