This is a matter of ordinary justice. We struggled against apartheid in South Africa, supported by people the world over, because black people were being blamed and made to suffer for something we could do nothing about -- our very skin. It is the same with sexual orientation. It is a given. I could not have fought against the discrimination of apartheid and not also fight against the discrimination that homosexuals endure, even in our churches and faith groups. →

"…readers may click through your slideshow, but they’ll hate you a liiitttle bit more than they did when they got to the site. And I bet they’ll feel the same way about whatever advertiser was unlucky enough to get stuck on the page with some stupid thing that a reporter did with a little bit of hate in his heart and fingertips."

Ceci N’est Pas un Poste: 24 Parodies of “The Treachery of Images” by Jason Oberholtzer on Slacktory

BETHANY! Remember art history? That year doctors had you drugged out of your mind and you kept coming to school? This makes me think of that.

This is great! And pretty much what every day of art history looked like from my perspective…

Other things I’ve accomplished in the past few months:

34. Try a new cultural food
FACT: Japanese food is not my thing… 

65. Volunteer for a meaningful organization
Still pluggin’ away with los niños and CB. Both have their frustrations, but they hold special places in my heart. El sol brilla para todos. 

68. Learn about a new religion
 Instead of working on our group project, I had a 45 min convo about the differences of my group members’ faith backgrounds (Church of God in Christ and Spiritual Israel Church). I wish I could recall more of what we talked about than I can…

72. Relearn how to tie a tie

80. Abstain from something for 30 days
I gave up Facebook right before Christmas, and have yet to go back. I’ll probably reactivate it this summer when I have more time to waste.

86. Send a letter/post card to someone in school
 I sent my boyfriend a creepy postcard of a hairy teacup while I was in New York. Sorry Colin, spoiler alert, you haven’t gotten it yet…

This means I’ve now finished 11/101 items on my list. Only 90 to go!
