The short and the tall have a million things to tell each other. About the weather, about calves, distended calves, about pants-related curiosities. About replacing light bulbs, about wearing very long t-shirts as pajamas, about knotted spinal columns from conversations at heterogenous heights. “Ow ow my neck” and all that.
Okay, I’ll be that spokesman.
Alan Grayson for every single award.
I am a college graduate with no job and nearly $50K in student loan debt. Since I lost coverage in 2006, I have only had emergency-basis treatment for bipolar disorder. My depression and anxiety are often crippling, and repeated bouts of mania ruined my credit.
Medication costs $325. I have $15 to my name.
I live with my boyfriend. If he loses his job, we lose everything.
I did everything I was supposed to do and I have nothing to show for it. I am worth more dead than alive.
I am the 99 percent.

All across America, there are classrooms filled with fifth graders who only know the World Trade Center from pictures. They have achieved the final perfection of George Orwell’s vision - we have always been at war with Eurasia - because they have never known a world where their country has not been at war in Iraq and Afghanistan. As with the Towers, some of these children only know a parent from pictures, because that parent was killed in those wars. They know what anthrax is, what an IED is, what WMD stands for. They know about fear, for it was fed to them, literally, with mother’s milk. For them, it has always been this way. These children have never known a country that was not in an economic recession, for their country’s economy has been tottering on its feet like a punch-drunk prizefighter for the last ten years. Theirs is a country that has always tapped phones in secret, always imprisoned people without trial or due process of law, always tortured, always lived in a cocoon of fear and hatred that serves to justify virtually any act, no matter how barbarous or criminal or wrong. Politicians, in their world, have always used threats of terrorism to frighten, to control, to change the subject, to win elections, and to make money for themselves and their friends. There are no consequences for such vicious acts. For these children, it has always been this way.

HEY, SELECT SCIENCE KIDS.
I’m not stupid because I’m in arts. I’m not going to get a useless degree. I like writing, I like learning, and I like being able to think critically. I like the courses I’m taking. And, last time I checked, people were allowed to like different things without being…
I CAN’T STOP POSTING THIS PLACES. Must have listened to this about three hundred and seventy times today.
