The world is scary right now. I often have the sense that the world leaders are using playground tactics in the place of actual political understanding. Honestly, I try not to think too often about how precarious it is.
Okay, you'll appreciate this. As I'm typing, Olympics is on - women's swimming, 400 m freestyle - and they have a whole story on how the french swimmer was dating this italian guy and they broke up and now one of the other swimmers is dating him so the french girl has to swim AGAINST THE WOMAN WHO IS DATING HER EX-BOYFRIEND!!! *complete with dramatic music* Tell me they would even be mentioning this if she was a man. So pathetic.
