&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today this dumb bitch dropped 9 precious dollars on 3 rolls of see-through wrapping paper.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have about $250 dollars worth of children’s toys to wrap and I have nothing but see-through wrapping paper.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;See-through. Wrapping paper.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s 11:35 on a SATURDAY night and I’m in my bedroom wrapping presents, Universe. Do you really think that’s a clue as to my emotional threshold right now? Like maybe I’m trying to get ahold of my crazy before it exists outside of the realm of my blog? Before my crazy starts happening in real life again? Do you REALLY think I can deal with this situation right now?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;SEE-THROUGH. WRAPPING PAPER.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pre-wrap them in brown paper grocery bags ps I think your crazy is great it’s like you’re in my head but much funnier.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://retrotort.tumblr.com/post/281178111</link><guid>http://retrotort.tumblr.com/post/281178111</guid><pubDate>Sat, 12 Dec 2009 23:41:07 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>I have decided to rebrand myself as someone who carries cigarettes in a silver case and a flask of...</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I have decided to rebrand myself as someone who carries cigarettes in a silver case and a flask of classy liquor in the inside pocket of a high collared Marc Jacobs coat and listens to lots of ambient music from Baltimore.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://retrotort.tumblr.com/post/281105433</link><guid>http://retrotort.tumblr.com/post/281105433</guid><pubDate>Sat, 12 Dec 2009 22:43:00 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title> </title><description>&lt;p&gt;Off to see longtime family friend and freshman year of high school’s software applications teacher as Santa in a community children’s play.

Wagner, director of the University of Berlin’s Women’s Clinic, advocated that the law provide an option for removing the entire uterus in mentally deficient women. His convoluted argument was based on the principle of “hereditary health”: mentally deficient women, after being sterilized, were especially likely to attract the opposite sex (who need not worry about impregnating them) and therefore to develop gonorrhea, which is most resistant to treatment when it affects the uterine cervix; the men who would then contract gonorrhea from these women would, in turn, infect other women with desirable hereditary traits and render them sterile. Other medical commentators, making a less genetic and more specifically moralistic argument, favored removal of the uterus in those candidates for sterilization who showed tendencies to promiscuity.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;The Nazi Doctors: Medical Killing and the Psychology of Genocide&lt;/i&gt;, Robert Lifton&lt;/p&gt;
