i'm medicated, how are you?
May. 16th, 2012 02:41 pmI was reading Scalzi's post about how straight white men have it easier and I felt he did a really good job at explaining the concept to people who are frightened of the word privilege.
Then I read the comments. Of course people are overreacting and even claiming that a queer woman of color has it easier than a straight white man in modern society. Although there are some good comments in there from people who finally get the concept. So while some people may not have read it closely, some people benefited it. I'm probably going to bookmark it for when people are being ignorant.
Then I am following the Undead Press saga, which is getting more and more ridiculous as it goes on. And is making me slightly wary of small presses in general, but I'll probably get over that.
I really want to get a subscription to Discover when I have the chance. I remember enjoying it so much as a kid and there's something about actually holding a magazine and reading it.
Also, I'm having difficulty getting words out right now (well words I like). I'm still working on my challenge, but I have very little plot worked out and I'm still running into the wall of healthy relationships being way too boring.
