10. “Doing laundry” in 2012 just means dropping things into machines that do all the work and it’s still overwhelming to me.

9. "I can’t believe I’m just allowed to walk around with these ovaries and a functioning uterus."

8. So I tried lying to myself by looking in the mirror and saying “this is really fun and I’m glad it’s happening to me.”

7. It’s just as creepy as it sounds and I’m not going to try to make it sound any better.

6. "I jerked off to your pics so many times that my hand fell off. Now I'm on welfare." "That's the sweetest thing anyone's ever said to me."

5. Michael Fassbender grinned, nakedly. “I killed all of the bugs for you, Caragh. All of the bugs are gone now.”

4. If you’re not asleep within 15 minutes smoke marijuana or masturbate. Or smoke marijuana and masturbate. Whatever. No one will know. EXCEPT GOD who is watching your sinful sleepy ways always.

3. I think if I was in the same room as Michael Fassbender my ovaries would probably fall out of my vagina and bounce like basketballs across the floor and attach themselves to his square and manly jaw, so it’s probably a good thing that we don’t run in the same social circle.

2. Fuck off clamstrip!! (technically not said by Caragh, but the entire post made me die laughing)

I apologise for the fact that this blog has become a bit of a dump for funny-stuff-politicalish-quotes-and-music-nicked-from-other-people recently. I've been trying to concentrate on my book blog, where actual quality original blogging happens.

It's not that I have anything against  the kind of Tumblrs that are made up solely of reblogs; I follow them, my Likes are full of their posts - it's just that they're ten a penny and make nobody special. I would rather post almost nothing on here than have it become the reblog dump it so easily could be.

I aspire to be like Caragh and Christine and Anna but I find that I just don't have enough to say. They're so willing to put their whole lives out there, and I just don't have that kind of courage, even in the name of comedy.

I also aspire to be like marxisforbros, who posts content that is important. I want this blog to mean something. I want to talk about how I feel about gender and social injustice and music and literature - the things I actually care about, the things I lecture my friends about.
