rock + bird

i'm a girl. i go to college. my favorite things include, music, pasta, photography, and my pet bird. i enjoy deep conversations and overpriced coffee. it was my childhood dream to be eliza thornberry. it still kind of is. i fit the latte-drinking liberal new yorker stereotype almost to a tee. i love animals and nature. people tend not to respect either enough.

i don't know what i want to be when i grow up, and i'm okay with that.

Rep. Sean Duffy (R-WI) fretting about making ends meet on his $174,000 a year salary

(TPM)

Seriously, fuck you.

(via brosephstalin)

But teachers with their $35,000 yearly salary are rich right?

(via janedoe225)

How about adjunct teachers in colleges making barely $15,000 a year from teaching?You obviously must feel their pain.

"I can guarantee you, or most of you, I guarantee that I have more debt than all of you. With 6 kids, I still pay off my student loans. I still pay my mortgage. I drive a used minivan. If you think I’m living high on the hog, I’ve got one paycheck. So I struggle to meet my bills right now. Would it be easier for me if I get more paychecks? Maybe, but at this point I’m not living high on the hog."
