so sometimes I sing to myself in a VERY SILLY voice. sometimes this happens when my boyfriend and I are on Skype, but I think he is off getting his dinner out of the oven. sometimes, he even takes out his cell phone and records me, apparently.
Okay so this is the weird kind of thing I do when home alone apparently? I was frustrated that I couldn’t find a recording of the sung response we use in my church, so I, um, stood on my staircase in my sweatpants and recorded myself singing it into my iPhone (?). Excuse my crummy voice and my “‘dme” issue (pardon dme instead of pardoned me…oy).
Um, anyway, this is “Glory To God, Whose Goodness Shines On Me” by Paul Vasile and I absolutely love it and my church sings it early in the service every morning after passing the peace of Christ (or as I tend to call it, ‘shake hands for Jesus’ time).
"Are the vast majority of unpaid internships illegal? A raft of lawsuits brought by unpaid interns claiming minimum-wage violations against big media companies this year might answer the question. In the first settlement among these cases, Charlie Rose’s production company agreed to pay back wages of $110-per-week to nearly 200 former interns. The ethics of unpaid internships are as murky as the economics are clear. Hundreds of thousands of young (and not so young) Americans are willing to work for nothing in exchange for the experience to take part in the daily thrum of a company. And I trust you’ll conceal your shock to learn that some businesses will not refuse young workers at the price of $0.00 per hour."

Watch the actual video.
Holy shit, I have never seen so much backpedaling in my life.
I would just like to point out the fact that she is saying these words to a man who is gay and you can see the pain and disgust on his face

I can look at it and go
