funny procrastination humor
Procrastination is not the problem. It is the solution. Procrastinate now, don’t put it off.
saws goes-on vegan
I became vegan because I saw footage of what really goes on in the slaughterhouses and on the dairy farms.
design-work special pieces
Designing is my hobby. If I didn't do what I do for a living - at some point when I don't do this for a living - I'll probably just do design work. I love finding really special pieces of furniture.
funny humor add
Our attention span is shot. We've all got Attention Deficit Disorder or ADD or OCD or one of these disorders with three letters because we don't have the time or patience to pronounce the entire disorder. That should be a disorder right there, TBD - Too Busy Disorder.
funny wall party
Stuffed deer heads on walls are bad enough, but it’s worse when you see them wearing dark glasses, having streamers around their necks and a hat on their antlers. Because then you know they were enjoying themselves at a party when they were shot.
inspiring honesty kindness
Here are the values that I stand for: honesty, equality, kindness, compassion, treating people the way you want to be treated and helping those in need. To me, those are traditional values.
vegetarian
I'm a lesbian, an Aquarian, and a vegetarian.
drama knowing people
So many people prefer to live in drama because it's comfortable. It's like someone staying in a bad marriage or relationship - it's actually easier to stay because they know what to expect every day, versus leaving and not knowing what to expect.
funny hilarious running
Just go up to somebody on the street and say 'You're it!' and then run away.
inspirational funny hilarious
People always ask me, 'Were you funny as a child?' Well, no, I was an accountant.
thinking political president
I think anybody who wants to be president has to be a politician, but I would like to find somebody who's coming from a loving place instead of a political place.
funny life cutting
I think they should have a Barbie with a buzz cut.
spiritual phones long
Right before I decided to come out, I went on a spiritual retreat called 'Changing the Inner Dialogue of Your Subconscious Mind.' I'd never been to anything like it before, and all my friends were taking bets on how long I'd last with no TV, no radio, no phone. But for me that was the beginning of paying attention to all the little things.
animal compassion rights
I'm not an activist; I don't look for controversy. I'm not a political person, but I'm a person with compassion. I care passionately about equal rights. I care about human rights. I care about animal rights.
