“I mean a) I grew up really homophobic. and b) In college, in the queer community stuff, I would go and…I’m not really that cool. I’m just being candid. A lot of the queer community was like ‘you have to be super vegan and have lots of piercings and give lots of fucks about everything!’ And i just wanted to be like oh my god you guys, did you see 40 Year Old Virgin? That shit was...

My brother and I talking about this awful 'play'...
Me: http://nothingwithoutacompany.org this was the awful thing I saw. Like, look at the character names. I can’t even.
Greg: HAHAHAHAHAHA Magnus Dreamseeder <3
Me: LIKE What the fuck. SERIOUSLY. Vexille of the Eastern Blaze. WTF. Was this person on acid or some shit?
Greg: I’m gonna get that tattooed on my butt.
FYI, the ‘writer’ was from DePaul. Of course.

To the douchebags that yelled at me from their car
Just because I am wearing a dress and red lipstick does not mean I ‘want to get fucked’. And even so, certainly NOT BY YOU (and at this particular point in my life, not by most men).
I get this a lot. Douchebags yelling at me from their cars/cabs as I’m walking alone (a lot of the times in my neighborhood, which is seriously like WHAT THE FUCK, THIS IS BOYSTOWN, TAKE YOUR...

Queer epiphanies
I identify as bisexual, for the most part. Definitely queer. It’s taken me awhile to come to terms with this part of my identity.
It’s funny because I recently rediscovered an old blog I kept when I was 15 and amidst the angsty teenage rants, dashboard confessional lyrics, and self-indulgent poetry - there were actually some very progressive and transgressive pieces of writing...

I wrote this 2 years ago. It's still true.
I’m not sure what it is, about being sixteen or seventeen, and how everything you feel is so intense and beautiful and scary at the same time and how it seems like your world will end or begin with one single gesture. I wish I could feel that way again.
Now my life is just theater, and cutting fabric, and talking to actors about how tight their costumes fit, pinning things, sewing things,...

strangely human
Alright, I recognize that I’m acting like a crazy person. Don’t we all get our bouts of insanity some times?
I think what I’m realizing is that it’s so incredibly hard to be honest, real and sincere (YEAH, I JUST USED THREE SYNONYMS, WHAT OF IT?) without people judging you hard nowadays, or feeling uncomfortable, or thinking you’re being emotionally slutty, or just...

Rebecca West to H.G. Wells, 1913 (via Flavorwire)
Dear H.G.,
During the next few days I shall either put a bullet through my head or commit something more shattering to myself than death. At any rate I shall be quite a different person. I refuse to be cheated out of my deathbed scene. I…

Mathematicians vs. Artists
Bo: I don’t understand you theater kids when you talk about your quarter life crises. It’s like, Chris says that he feels he’s not getting enough artistic control in the projects he’s working on, or that he’s not fulfilling his artistic desires. What does that even mean?
Me: … that is exactly what I mean when I say I’m having an existential crisis.

Social Norms
When someone sends you a sexy poem presumably about him and his current girlfriend out of the blue … what is the appropriate response?
Do I just pretend it never happened, do I say, ‘Oh yes, that’s a very nice love poem about you and your lady, thanks for showing it to me’, do I ask if he’s gone off his meds, what are the implications here? WHAT IS HAPPENING? Why do...

Intelligentsia is mecca for people with first...
A very blonde well-kept lady sits across from me. ‘Oh! Sorry!’ she says, as though I’ve startled her. I just smile, which she somehow takes as an invitation to start telling me about her cats and how one cat needs prescription cat food but the other one doesn’t, and it’s all very complicated and she and her husband joke about how they spend more money on cat food than...

Girls will fuck you up
It is just true.
Ex-girlfriends will stalk you on facebook and then innocuously send you a message after you haven’t talked to them in like 10 thousand years (with good reason) about how they found something (useless) of yours which clearly you don’t want, much less will bother facing the discomfort of going back to see them to get, and then after you’ve exchanged said...
