Well didn't he get shot here : D?

Holy smokes!!! I didn't know he had so many @_______@ K I'm going to participate in CSR this month lol

I totally agree with this. We mustn't trivialize injustices in progressive countries but we must always realize that there are people out there that have it much worse. It's the only way of getting the whole picture, and the only way of (eventually) abolishing inequalities altogether.

So are you saying I'm hot like the sun, and just like the sun, if you stare at me too long you'll go blind? >:C Thanks for the vote of confidence. NOT. I guess T___T Thanks AJ, means a lot to me. Just kinda bummed when things fizzle :< I think my new years resolution is to be more of a go-getter type person when it comes to relationships

So I got first world/third world mixed up all the time all along, wow. I should just quit life. But thanks Ieshwar. I have problems approaching people whom I like in a non-platonic way so it never gets noticed / fizzles 'cause I'm just so dumb. But yeah you're right if it's meant to be it'll happen (I hate writing fate related comments but it makes me feel better right now so >:C ). ITS OK IESHWAR I STALKED YOU HARD TOO. Awww thanks. Happy New Year Asam! I was sad-ish but hey it's time to party and no point getting hung up about anything. Ieshwar is totally being fooled because I just have really good photoshop skills so I make myself look like a sexy beast in pictures but in real life I'm a 5000 kg flightless pterodactyl. And that probably explains this blog :'C

ermergerd guys you just gave me +1000 self-esteem points. I've almost leveled up to "Self Confident" *A*

but i dont want all the dicks D: just one

@________@ This is new to you?!?

There's this guy I like but all we ever talk about are raves and school. Also he hasn't gotten back to me when I asked him out. It's been like four whole days (I think). I'm kinda bummed. brb while I play some sad sad piano and collect my tears in a jar and save the salt crystals so I can cook myself a fucking plate of stir fried depression #FIRSTWorldProblems (I always get first* and third* world confused, why am I so dumb)

*hugs Renee* I'm really sorry to hear about all of this. I don't really know what else to say because "wow you had a tough year" is quite the understatement. You're a strong person and there are people here on GA and all around you who care about you. So I know you'll be able to pull through. 2014 will be better for sure.

RUDOLPH :<!

HERE WE GO

Hahahha wow that is really douchey.

Thanks for shedding some light on this from an insider's perspective Asam. I'm praying for you guys.

Immigrants often do act differently than residents of a country. There are a select few whom do not understand the ways of a country and may come across as rude, and others whom do abuse the legal system. One major cause of concern in Vancouver was that a lot of new Chinese immigrants, because of their booming economy, were able to invest in a huge amount of real estate and may have (or might not have) played a role in the inflation in housing. Because of this many people were enraged and quickly formed generalized negative stereotypes of all Chinese immigrants. I had to unfollow one of the facebook pages from my university because of the amount of racist bullshit that was being spewed by my fellow students. tl;dr when things change in Canada and immigrants come (whether they are or are not the cause of change), people get their racist on. As to how to change things... I think we need to continue to do things like you do Steve and call people out on their bullshit. Racism in our country is due to a lack of knowledge, context, and empathy. When people group together and form schemas on other minorities and no one tells them that they're wrong, they'll continue to be racist and exacerbate the problem. In addition, I think basic social justice courses in college and university should be made mandatory. There are too many overeducated canadian kids around who think they know homophobia, racism, feminism, etc.

James can you just marry me already, what do I have to do? D:

This is sad but I've noticed that more and more Canadians are voicing their racist opinions, probably due to an increased amount of Chinese immigrants. Most of the time it's not as public as your scenario, but I've come across it a lot through social media sites, such as my local news articles. I'm really glad that you went up to tell him that he was being an asshole. The world needs more people like you.

I honestly think we're arguing based on an interpretation of which group of people is more dangerous but Idk if that's really the point. From a direct perspective obviously people who directly attack others is more dangerous, but fairweather allies and the uneducated biased lot present a problem and it all needs to be dealt with. Recognizing that homophobia in ANY shape or form is important to abolish it totally. When I wrote this blog, I was mainly triggered by people of Canada and how a lot of them claim to be pro-gay but were against progressive human rights movements, such as voicing protestation against the new anti-gay propaganda laws in Russia. It made me realize how many people really don't understand what it really means to be a supporter because of their privilege, and how difficult it was for others to recognize that their views were wrong. That is dangerous because it gives religious zealots and other hateful groups incentive to go on doing what they want to do (aka some people in Russia). tl;dr: It's all a problem.

I spat out my tea all over my keyboard when I saw the ostrich pillow IS THAT REAL LOL. And dude the underwater speakers are SO COOL, I wanted to get a pair. On another note, for the love of God, please don't get anyone (unless it's like your grandma or something): 1) Candles 2) Soap It's so hard to pretend to get excited about candles and soap anymore. John: "Merry Christmas best friend, I have a present for you!" Joe: "Oh my... you got me... Soap! Oh this is wonderful, can't get enough soap!" John: "yeah this is a limited edition soap, it's autographed by Michael Phelps so when you wash yourself with it you can breathe underwater when you take a bath." Joe: "Does it also give me flying powers if I jump off a building?"
