The Curbside Prophet

My name is Alyssa Mae.

I am a mid-twenties avid intersectional feminist, advocate, fighter, counselor, and friend. I will be graduating from Bucknell University in May with degrees in Psychology and Women’s & Gender Studies. I work with survivors of sexual assault and other trauma, and I fix computers for a living.

I often blog about what it is like to live at the intersections of a few different mental illnesses, queerness, and sexuality, along with posts about sexism, racism, rape culture, and LGBT rights. There is a trigger warning for these on my entire blog. You will see posts about depression, eating disorders, PTSD, panic disorder, and fat activism. This has been my safe space for four years now, and I reserve the right to ask you to leave it if necessary.

Welcome to my life.

Kay, then why didn’t HE ask me about getting a job here? How come as soon as I directed my speech to him instead of you, he just shied away from me and looked terrified? 

If he’s got ZOMG AWESOME CUSTOMER SERVICE SKILLZ, why can’t he have a simple conversation about the job application process?

LET YOUR CHILD FIGURE OUT HIS OWN DAMN LIFE.
