Why Straws Weird Me Out Sometimes

-

 

I have a completely random, yet profoundly deep question.

Does a straw have two separate holes or is the straw itself just one long hole with an opening on either end?  I’ve looked it up and no two search engines will give me the same answer.

Book Hangover Thoughts: The Forgotten Family

-
An open letter to: Meryl Matthews because she really made me think.  In your story, The  For gotten Family, a wealthy couple with fertility problems during the late 1800s did what many people in that situation typically do. They decided to adopt. In this case, a two-year-old girl from the slums. ( Fun Fact , that was what poorer neighborhoods were referred to at the time). Now, I know that the Bonners actually had a decent reason to give up their youngest. Not just because she was an unplanned pregnancy, which she likely was, since with Mr. Bonner having lost his job and being in dire need of an increase in their finances, another baby was the last thing needed. Neither of her birth parents had any real skill in having a family, which is why the kids basically raised themselves, and very well I may add. Queenie was only thirty months old, and very eloquent for her age, given the circumstances, and able to physically and verbally assert herself, and they made it clear th...

Petition

 I figured if I solved whatever problem was causing my anxiety, I'd get rid of it and I'd be helping people. It's a win-win. right? Here's a link to the petition I'm trying to circulate.  If you sign it, I'll shout you out! https://chng.it/2zZ2HWhptQ     It's not fair to only take one because it's easier.

Proposal for The Betterment of Siblings in Foster Care  This document comes not as a complaint or criticism, but as a request for upholding a simple and basic human right which for too long has been denied to children simply because it isn’t being upheld by a system designed to protect them.

Story Hangover Thoughts: Ever After High VS Descendants

  Have you ever noticed that after someone comes up with an original idea, ten minutes later, they have a million copycats?  Take Ever After High and Disney’s Descendants for example. Ever After came first and was at the peak of its fame when Disney decided that they wanted a piece of the action. So, what do they do? They change a few things like the names of the characters and a few pieces of plot line and claim it’s their idea.  Let’s see; children of fairy tales? Check. Attending a boarding school where everyone thinks they’ll be just like their parents, especially the villains? Check. Main characters including children of Sleeping Beauty, Mad Hatter, and Evil Queen? Check.  I don’t know how this didn’t get Disney Channel sued by Mattel. It only got so popular because they used popular teen actors and were basically riding the coattails of Ever After High and Kenny Ortega’s reputation from High School Musical.  And of course, since Disney Channel “Origina...
