Archaeologists Officially Declare Collective Sigh... →
jangojips: Very good read. :) This article reminds us that: “It’s when you mate, not what you ate” that determines evolutionary success of an individual.

Then today I realized: Well duh, socially awkward and socially awkward together just makes for...

So I got a navel piercing today. It hurt like a fucking bitch. The pain is mostly gone now, 4 hours later.

I should live in naive bliss because then I wont be making up signs of rejection in my head. Damn curiosity.

treyfuckingcasen: zoedangerawesome: viviandemilo: I’m trying to think of good gender neutral replacements for ‘hey guys/you guys” and “dude/dudes” (I say dude WAY TOO MUCH oh my god why do I talk like such a bro?) in my oh-so-Californian vocabulary. I’m struggling to stop… Dude= unmarked: general term all conclusive of both male and female SEE MILICIC, I LEARNED!  XD
