Is It Now a Crime to Be Poor? →
By Barbara Ehrenreich

Why Do Innocent People Confess? →
wisconsinforward:
The New York Times has a fascinating piece on the phenomenon of false confessions:
If you have never been tortured, or locked up and verbally threatened, you may find it hard to believe that anyone would confess to something he had not done. Intuition holds that the innocent do not make false confessions. What on earth could be the motive? To stop the abuse? To curry favor...

missworded:
Women are unequal in our society. They are underpaid, underrepresented in government and business, and often considered little more than walking egg sacs.
So the “make me a sandwich” line does nothing but emphasize a status quo that’s been around for thousands of years. It’s not…

People are acting strangely today, both on and off Tumblr.
At least I had a very nice, productive morning talking with people in prison. We talked about public policy relating to prisons and incarceration, which is of course something I get excited about.

Thoughts for tonight:
Chuck D is an interesting and enlightening speaker, though his message is obscured by the scattershot nature of his speeches.
I didn’t do my homework for tomorrow, but it doesn’t really matter.
I hate that I can’t see a tall, skinny girl with straight blonde hair without thinking of her, still. At least it’s just confined to that now.
Finally, it...

I’m confused, how are you going to do all those things at once?
im a wizzard
I’m going to sit in my room, read Star Wars books, play with my new haircut, and look at Tumblr porn for the rest of the night.
Since it is Tuesday, you’re welcome to send me questions.

I’ve been pretty busy lately, so sorry I haven’t been on here much lately. Perhaps that will be remedied soon.
