idk i was always a big reader so i think i sort of had some idea that everything i did aka an 'experience' had some kind of future purpose like that at least in the back of my mind, like it would inform writing about it later in some way

This is like the other side of engaging in intentionally reckless behavior (dating highly unsuitable people, for instance) in order to weather oneself while still young and fresh. Is this what young people do now? No more self-destruction?

i am in college right now but didn't have to write an essay, they still admit people based on legacy here thank god
You're in Canada iirc? I didn't think legacy was a thing here? Centralized computerized admissions based on hs report cards sounds about right.

i do feel like some (most) of the people posting these things probably only really have trouble finding parking spaces or a good mocha latte and never actually have to climb insurmountable mountains of adversity. but what do i know, maybe they do. but if they do why are they on facebook so much? they should be outside climbing mountains of turmoil or something.

when you think about it, it's also kind of amazing that even the GOP (or a segment of it) pushed hard for a black presidential candidate this year. Sure, it was mostly out of a misguided attempt to seem *not racist* and to get like 2 black people to vote for them, but still.

yeah. but even the fact that the GOP did it as theater is a kind of step forward

I mean I guess no moreso than Alan Keyes, but it's still a long way from the 1950s
ya I mean no more lynchings but putting a crazy black guy on t and pretending to support him isn't 'not racist'...it's actually probably the opposite

i never heard any woman of any age ever express any envy that katie holmes was with tom cruise, not one, most of them sounded worried and some shuddered if the topic arose, so i think that church lawyer might be overestimating what a catch the entire world thinks he is.
