See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna

I have other neighbors whose sidewalk I regularly shovel, or who show lapses in the care of their trim. But I don’t begrudge them the hours and dollars I spend for their benefit because, at the very least, it is mutual. They loan me baking powder and eggs, they stick their heads out the door to see what I’m yelling about as I attempt to get a squirrel out of my attic, they move UPS deliveries onto the dry part of my porch when it’s raining. Yes, we all – me and the elderly Eastern Europeans and the other young families, even Bank of America – we all pay money into the system, but the money isn’t even half of one’s vital contribution to his or her community.

The neighboring itself is far more valuable than the damn money. When my neighbors see some man they don’t recognizing talking to my boy at the bus stop, they come over and make sure everything is OK. Bank of America doesn’t do a damn thing.

The Occupy movement is clearly unifying. Centralizing racial equity will help to sustain that unity. This won’t happen accidentally or automatically. It will require deliberate, smart, structured organizing that challenges segregation, not only that of the 1 percent from everyone else, but also that which divides the 99 percent from within.
When Max wanted to leave without the 500 dollars I thought to myself, “they can’t be that broke.” For 500 dollars you could parade all of my exes, anyone that’s ever turned me down, and every single person I have ever had an awkward interaction with in front of me while they insulted the cupcakes I baked and made out with each other. That’s what being broke is like.

This really cute girl just asked me out for coffee, and I think it might be a date. How do I figure out if it’s a date?? Or at least how do I not be totally awkward with my not knowing?

well, whatever else it is, it’s DEFINITELY coffee with a cute girl. so i mean we can be pleased as punch about that alone, right? if one of you kisses the other, it will definitely be a date. if one of you asks the other one to hang out again really soon at the end, it will probably be a date. if she’s wearing a shirt that she obviously spent a long time picking out and really cute shoes, you’re probably going to get married.
