love is a banquet

Me and this tumblr in a nutshell: early 20s. I like music and alcohol and reading. I like dissecting pop culture in my spare time. I have a degree in English. I'm an INFJ. I love cute animals, specifically cats. I'm a huge fan of equality, sex, and sarcasm. I'm an even bigger fan of love, which is a pretty big shock to me.
I have a separate NSFW tumblr, so ask me for the url if you're so inclined.
Okay, so that's more than a nutshell, but I'm allergic to nuts, so it's all good.

Also, you read about the Boy. Now follow him here: almostpalpable.tumblr.com.

Watch me on Anderson today!

jessicavalenti:

Hey y’all, I’m going to be on Anderson Cooper’s daytime show today talking about purity balls and abstinence. (The founder of purity balls, Randy Wilson, is also on.) You can check your local listings for when the show will be on. In the meantime, here are a couple of clips from the show.

I’m watching this now and am so disappointed by how some people still think. But you’re awesome, as usual, Jessica, and I love that Anderson seems as skeeved out by purity balls as some of are!
