Bryan Ropar's Plastic Chair World maybe the realest Youtube Channel I've ever seen in my life.
During Admitted Students day, piper preview, Piper passages, and football games, all I can think about is making whoopy with Piper mascot.

Recently, whenever I start vaping I get the hiccups...I think my body is telling me to stop.
As a Trump supporting employed white heterosexual male that pays his own rent, I will never check my privilege, and there's nothing that will ever change that.
There was a really in the comments to a confession way back when along the lines of a person being mentally weak if they have extreme anxiety over the coming election and that they need to grow the hell up, etc. While I didn't make the original confession, I can relate to op about their concerns and anxiety about it. I get incredibly anxious at the various prospects, but I don't think that makes me weak. But seeing that comment, and subsequently how many people agreed with it (currently at 11 likes), it really re-stigmatizes my mental illnesses for me. It reminded me how shitty people can be, and think I'm weaker and more useless because I'm mentally ill.
Lately despite years of struggling with my mental illnesses, and absolutely hating every fiber of my being for having them, I've been in a good place. I haven't been suicidal, I haven't self harmed in months, generally I'm happier. But reading that comment, I hate myself all over again for being anxious and being mentally ill.
I don't know of the person who made that comment will see this, or even realize I'm talking about them. But if they do, I hope you realize how fucked up what you said is, and how what you said has made at least one person hate themselves more. It's hell living with mental illnesses, and it's so much more worse when people call us weak. You don't know how much strength it takes to get out of bed each morning, to remember to eat, to not self harm/take our own life, to put on a happy face for the world while we're literally rotting away inside.
I just don't get all this uproar about the academic changes. The majors are not going away they are being placed as concentrations. There was student input when there was just not enough students taking the classes. Universities also have to run under market constraints and this one got the added bonus of the Linda constraint.
Fellow conservatives and Republicans at Hamline, do not worry, we are in the process of bringing back the college republicans. We have a few meeting times we're tossing around. Currently the two big possibilities are Tuesday at 4pm or Wednesday at 4pm. If you're not part of RJ's chat, and want to become active in the group when it comes back up, post a comment about which of those two works for you, or if neither, another time that works well.
