Ugetsu watches the concert

While it's so easy to just write someone off as not being willing to walk away from shitty circumstances, the bottom line is that sometimes people are too scared to because the alternative could potentially be worse. It's hard walking away from painful love when you're not sure you're gonna get love at all once you leave, especially if you're queer.

The latest viral media story that has taken over the internet is that of Tessica Brown, a Louisiana woman who used Gorilla Glue spray adhesive in place of actual hair spray on her hair. It has been a harrowing story and I, for one, am enrapt by it. With news that Brown may be seeking legal action against Gorilla Glue, the discourse has brought up a figure well known in tort law: the "McDonald's Coffee Lady."
