If you have ever thought to yourself “Oh my god, why does it even MATTER if there are gay people in this? Its a book/movie/TV show/etc. It isn’t a big deal!” Remember this:
You have probably NEVER, EVER, in your entire life, read a book WITHOUT any straight people in it.

[[MORE]]I just have no motivation to do anything. Ever. Just not one bit of motivation. I’m so ready for summer and to be done with this shitty fucking semester. I don’t even know why it’s sucked so hard, it’s just been really easy to be completely negative.

I’m giving up on Epidemics.
I will not get a 0 on the final, but I will probably fail it.
