I’m feeling weird about turning 24. 25 will probably be worse.
turning 24 wasn’t so bad! turning 25 will be pretty weird though. it means that we’re in a different target demographic! we’re not as desirable to marketers! but we can rent cars, which is something.

But it’s pretty much also the only thing I’ve taken notes on since the midterm, because I thought maybe if I paid attention it’d make more sense.
It didn’t.
Apparently it’s the only IR theory with a political goal - emancipation. What does this mean? I seriously do not understand. Ok, so liberal feminists believe that there is no difference between men and women, and that...

Danica Patrick to race in NASCAR series →
for the non-rednecked, the Nationwide series that she’s entering has traditionally been used as a sort of minor league, but in recent years the big guns (Kyle Busch, Carl Edwards, who does the backflips off his car) have entered these events as well. So she hasn’t made the big show, but she will still be racing with some of the big boys. Aside from that, I don’t really know how I...
