What if Tim Tebow were Muslim? →

warrennotg:
How would our society react if during every interview, Tebow said “Insha’Allah” or “Allāhu Akbar” rather than thank his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ? Or instead of falling to one knee and praying, Tebow pulled out a prayer rug and faced Mecca?
THIS.
Exactly.

“…I’ve never had a problem with physical contact – I’ve demanded it. Friends of all ages, genders and sexual orientation know that when I’m tired or not feeling well or slightly intoxicated, my head is going on someone’s lap and there better be fingers running through my hair or all bets are off. I’m a sickeningly affectionate person and have a real do-or-die policy with friends: do...

As good of an idea as it seems, working the last three days before a holiday, especially one with an extended break, is not worth it! I have work that is easy and will not take any superhuman effort to finish, but I cannot do it… I hope this tea gets me motivated.
T minus 1.5 days.

Beyoncé Assistance
As a birthday present to myself, I decided to finally admit that I really do love Beyoncé and get some of her stuff!! I am completely clueless as to what to get from her. Do you have a number 1 Beyoncé album? Should I just get a bunch of singles?
Holiday Cards
I decided to actually send out cards this year!! If you’d like one, ask box me your address. Yay!!

World AIDS Day
If you are in Indianapolis and want to support World AIDS Day, Just-Pop-In is donating 10% of their proceeds to the Damien Center. It’s a little way to contribute, but anything is helpful.
Also, if you happen to be an IUPUI student, there is free HIV/AIDS testing in the Campus Center today!
Let’s do anything and everything we can to stop the spread of this terrible disease.

Friendsgiving
Last Friday I hijacked my parents’ house and hosted a Friendsgiving for people in my Masters program. It was outstanding.
There was only one hiccup! I was making my very first turkey. I ordered a fresh, local one from one of my favorite places in town, Goose the Market. When I got it home, it still had the neck on!! I was mildly concerned because, if the neck was still on, was everything...
Every time!
Every.time. I see that Walmart commercial with the little girls whose mom comes back from serving in the military I cry! It’s so sweet!

Over it

“I am over rape.
I am over rape culture, rape mentality, rape pages on Facebook.
I am over the thousands of people who signed those pages with their real names without shame.
I am over people demanding their right to rape pages, and calling it freedom of speech or justifying it as a joke.
I am over people not understanding that rape is not a joke and I am over being told...
