omg really? i like it.. its actually.. one of my favorite disney movies. its like terribly uneven but mostly i like a lot of the songs (hellfiiiiire) and visuals

nice. it seems pretty intense so I might watch it sometime soon. I’ve definitely heard Hellfire at least (again: intense). 

This might be a weird comparison to attempt to draw, but is it anything on the level of The Prince of Egypt in terms of tone, narrative, etc? that one’s my go-to example of an amazing animated film (as you... probably know, lol)

doewd ive been trying to follow this tpp business as best i can but a lot of the stuff is more about law and intellectual property than actual trade barriers so idr get it as well as id like... whats your opinion on it

oh man i am so uninformed about what’s going on with the TPP, i was trying to pay attention and then i kind of…. forgot

like a lot of ppl i’m very skeptical of it; besides the obvious transparency issues, it sounds like they’re trying to work stricter copyright guidelines into the language of the agreement (and as you probably know I find current copyright policy, globally but also in the US, too harsh and stringent already). The EFF has outlined the problems the TPP poses. of course the EFF has its own agenda, but it’s one i’m generally sympathetic to

but I admittedly have a very superficial knowledge of the IP specifics, and i’m also admittedly not the best person to talk about international trade (sooo not my forte). I just think that the US, at least, has in the last century trended towards severe copyright norms in the name of promoting commerce – and that’s a whole ‘nother can of worms – as well as legitimizing intellectual property as specifically private property. I can’t speak for the other countries party to the TPP, though, but I’d like to educate myself on their copyright regimes and how they compare (though I’m assuming many of them are party to other treaties, the Berne Convention et al.)

you really gotta expect that the government is capable of pinpointing opponents’ weaknesses so perfectly, in this case my immense vanity

steinbecks said: your feelings are valid and legitimate and you’re not insane. from everything you’ve said, it sounds like he deliberately kept things from you, but there is no reason for you to doubt the reality of what happened.

thank you, guys. this means a lot to me. I’ve been so scared that i’ve been feeling entitled to something from him, but I think I really just want an acknowledgment that something went wrong. 

and i know I won’t get that from him. but it helps to hear that I’m not the bad guy. (not that i’ve behaved perfectly, i just mean it’s a relief that others think my perception of what happened is valid.) I’ve wondered if I need to apologize to him or make amends. but i’d rather keep my distance.

ufothing said: this is so your color

why thank you! i do like how I look in that shade of green; weirdly i don’t really own anything in that color (except a shirt that i need to throw out). I think I could really rock it with the right shade of red lipstick? only problem (besides the $50 price tag -- not obscene, but again, that’s money that could be more wisely spent) is that I think it goes best with heels, which i try to avoid
