i’m sixteen. my best friend outed me to twenty or thirty of our closest friends last night. i literally have no idea how to keep going. i can’t go to school on monday. i’m lost. i trusted her so much riese, was that pressure on her not fair?

well, your best friend is either:
a) an asshole
b) your best friend, which is why she knows it’s gonna be fine with everyone and felt like you weren’t ever going to do it yourself. she basically hit fast forward on the button of your coming out process to get to the good part where you find out nothing has changed.

i want you to go to school tomorrow because someone is going to surprise you with just how much they love you and your homogayness 4ever.

there you go.
i have psychic powers
for serious
so when i tell you the future
i mean it

What does it mean when a girl brings you cookies?

one time alex made peanut butter cookies
and had them sent to my apartment
on valentines day
via courier
we then dated for 2.5 years

so she either wants to be your girlfriend or your design director

Rachel Maddow Appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show! Rejoice!

Ellen DeGeneres interviewed Rachel Maddow on her TV show! Everything is great (except for the portrayal of women by the media).

how long have you and your girlfriend been dating for? what’s she like?

We’re coming up on a year, thanks for asking :) This was such a cute question. Also, she’s like sipping on hot cocoa and wearing footie pajamas on Christmas morning basically.
