Celebrity gossip. I'm just not interested in who married who, who's wearing what, who's doing who.

And reality TV, but if ratings are any indication, I'm the weird one on that.

This is dumb, but I actually don't blame the couple THAT much. It's probably a shitty sexual education coupled with the taboo of talking about it. I went to abstinence-only sex ed back in the day, and all we were told was "sex before marriage is evil," and basically nothing else. If it wasn't for my church's (yeah, seriously!) really good sex-ed classes, I would have been dumb as bricks.

The DARE officer at my school (anti-drug police officer supposed to scare you straight) was actually yelled at by my health teacher for saying "sharing needles can cause STIs, oh and also wear a condom." A teacher shouted "Abstinence only, no condoms!" at a bunch of ninth-graders. Moron. Although I guess the kids in that class wouldn't have had trouble getting pregnant.

Before I realized and came out as bi, I was in the GSA (gay-straight alliance) in high school as a "straight." My state was voting to ban gay marriage at the time, and we campaigned against it. I got just as much if not more hate from people than the LGBT members. Maybe because they viewed them as a lost cause? It was usually adults yelling at a 17-year-old kid for being a "betrayer" and a "pervert lover" (I liked that one), just because I supported two consenting adults marrying regardless of gender. Staunch allies definitely earn the title.

I feel like important context is that they were kids of the manager. That changes this from a bad corporate governance and exploitation of labor situation to something else: a bad parenting/child abuse, bad corporate governance and exploitation of labor situation.

Anyone else hate that the Gadsden flag has been appropriated by ultra-libertarian jingoists? It's an awesome-looking flag with a cool history and symbolism, but I feel like I couldn't fly it without looking like a twat.
