Days7:45 AM: My alarm rings. I slowly awake, my turquoise walls blurring, just too far away to be in focus without my glasses, and check the time. I know I don't have to get up for another 10 minutes. I look over to my right, and see my sister's bed. Her...See More »
SadnessI'm sitting at my desk, messing with a broken pair of scissors. I'd fix them, but a part's missing. And I don't have any glue that'll bind metal and plastic. My desk is kind of a mess. Papers piling up, countless little trinkets sitting beneath them....See More »
"USA Loses Presidential Election!" Poll (17) See Poll OptionsOn the 8th of November 2016, the world looked on as Donald Trump won the United States Presidential Election. After all the hateful rhetoric that he's...See More »
What do all these words have in common?Vermilion. Cinnabar. Pewter. Cerulean. Saffron. Lavender. Celadon. Fuchsia. I know most of you will say one thing, but I wonder if any of you will get the other one.
I Am Not PerfectI try my best, when I write stories and posts here on SW, to show the best parts of me. I talk about politics, and life, and even depression, but throughout it all I try to make sure that the me you see is a good version of me. Usually. Sometimes...See More »
The truth is complicatedI met a girl once. We were chatting, and she asked me if I was gay. I said no. A few weeks later, she just so happened to see me kissing my girlfriend, and claimed I lied to her. Well, technically I didn't. You see, I'm bisexual. But does that mean I...See More »
I Graphed Similar Worlds. So I set myself a little task: Learn more about the users of this site. To do this, I opened the recently active users page, and wrote down in Excel the amount of people in each age group, and how many are male and female. I did this 3 times, getting...See More »
I Hate Bad GrammarI am a total grammar nazi... In my head. As much as I hate bad grammar (and spelling!), I always do my best to not correct people unless they ask me to, because it's just not nice. Having said that, because I hate it so much, I just don't talk to...See More »
I Hate HalloweenA ridiculous holiday where parents get their children to take food from strangers. And not only that, but if you don't have anything to give the kids, you're looked down upon. *all the sighs in the world*. And then there are halloween parties. Why...See More »
I Like PoliticsThe American Presidential Election is terrible. But there is a silver lining: While both Clinton and Trump are equally terrible options, there is a much healthier debate between Tim Kaine and Mike Pence. So personally, If I were American, I'd vote...See More »
I Am An AtheistI am an Atheist. And I'm in the inexplicable mood for a debate. So feel free to ask me anything, to challenge my beliefs, and to have a (hopefully) peaceful discussion about religion.
I Am DepressedAbout 3 weeks ago, I wasn't in the best state of mind (Some might argue I'm still not, but whatever). I needed a break from the world for a while. I know a few people were quite worried about my disappearance, especially so soon after my post about...See More »
I Am BackI left about 3 weeks ago, and now I think It's time to come back. Whether this is a good idea or not I don't know, but I miss this place more than I though I would. Hello again.
I Am Taking A BreakSW was a great place for me for a while. I made some friends, and had some fun. But now, I haven't spoken to most of those friends in a long while, and all I seem to do here nowadays is argue with people and not talk to my friends. So I think it's...See More »
I Don't Like ReligionJust a couple blasphemous things I've been thinking recently. 1) You tell me you have faith in God. I tell you I have faith that this glass of water isn't poisoned. Now drink it. 2) The only way to believe that Satan is evil is if he punishes good...See More »
I Like Politics Politics is a hefty beast, and to bring it up in conversation is a surefire way of either making everyone run away, or offending someone. Which is sad, because politics is not oly interesting, but vitally important. Everyone has opinions, and by...See More »
I Am ConfusedRight, so I just had a conversation with jennypenny in the comments of one of my posts. You can see it in my "I am an Atheist" story. I'd just like to ask, what else could I have possibly done? I'm sure I did all I could to be rational but seriously,...See More »
I Don't Like Religion Earlier today, I was watching the film "Room". A great film, by the way. But it reminded me of just how bizzare I find it when religion appears in media and film. Just one sentence in the film gave me quite a lot to think about, and it wasn't even a...See More »
I Am British I absolutely hate what Britain has become. But after everything, all the strife and horrible decisions in this place, I'm just tired. I'm tired of everything now. But, I can hope that we'll be fine. One day.
I Am An Atheist"If you're a religious person, you might wanna pop out for about five minutes" -Tim Minchin Warning: If you aren't familiar with Star Trek The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine, the second paragraph of this may be lost on you. Also, Fix that. Now....See More »
I Like a Good QuoteOne of my favourites, I think, is from the exquisite Tim Minchin: (Quote) Basically the disclaimer for everything I ever say.
I Am BritishWhile I am strongly pro European Union, I do think that we shouldn't just consider the benefits of staying, but all of the circumstances and possibilities. One of the most important things to remember is that the UK won't leave the EU the minute the...See More »
I Wear Glasses and I Love ThemI love my glasses. I love how they frame my eyes. They make me look even nerdier, which I love. 😋 And they help me see, there's that too.
I Like It When It RainsI love the sound of rain hitting my window. It's so calming. It helps me fall asleep too. Even though I don't like standing in the rain, I enjoy the excuse it gives me to not go outside. ;) Usually that wouldn't be a problem, but sometimes you just...See More »
