Though it occurs to me DAO’s origins were basically just “were you upper class or lower class”.
Except they cropped the lower class human option.
Though in the elf case it was,”Are you an oppressed minority in a big city, or a member of an isolationist anarcho-primitivist commune out in the woods.”
True.

My sister wrote me a long letter basically saying she has never been worthy of being my sister.
How am I supposed to react to that? _._
To tell her that nobody has to be judged “worthy” of anyone… That her responsability is not to try to be worthy of you but to respect the choices and way of being of her children ?

New York Considering Closing the JRC →
iamthethunder:
Most students at the JRC are sent by the state of New York. Legislators there are considering banning state funds to support aversives, which would pull their students out and leave the institution in financial crisis. It might well have to close its doors. Please encourage them, especially if you are a New York voter.

So we went and saw the Avengers movie.
And I have three main comments:
It was very clearly a Joss Whedon movie, it even had his favorite scene (where Black Widow is a prisoner of some dudes, and then promptly completely reverses the tables and kicks all their asses.)
The chitauri spaceships looked like Great A’tuin.

I’m mentioning it not because I want anyone to do anything, but just because it’s actually quite exciting and at the same time sad, and weird, and many things.
