mountain_laurel: (bed in hell)
i often complain about bay area culture and how hard i find it to meet people i like here. i complain about lit-wankers and art fags and people who insist on calling movies "films" and hippies and pretty much everybody else. today in conversation with [livejournal.com profile] tongodeon, i finally managed to neatly sum up the problem:

it's not that i'm an ignorant philistine, i just can't take ANYTHING as goddamned seriously as people around here seem to take EVERYTHING.

addendum: IHNJ, IJLS "post-hip boutique hotel."

An administrator at Thurgood Marshall Academic High School faces discipline for failing to contact police about an alleged sexual assault on campus.

how hard must it have been for a 14-year-old girl who'd just been sexually assaulted to go to the police on her own after a school administrator didn't take her seriously? that's one tough girl.

but she shouldn't have fucking had to do it alone.

in other news, crusading grannies strike again!
