Day 29: Your opinions on the television show Glee.
I think Glee was a wasted opportunity. The creators had the building blocks to craft a (perhaps not particular creative) story about diversity, representation, discrimination, privilege and families that are found not born, and they threw it away.
For a show that's ostensibly about acceptance and giving voice to everyone, it's a little surprising* that only the voices of white men get heard.
Day 30: Take a picture of yourself right now and post it, or post the most recent picture you can find.
This isn't the most recent photo of me, but it's the most recent one where I'm not sticking my eyes out like a bug, so this is what you're getting. I'm the one in the red hat who isn't looking at the camera. This was taken in December, when my friends and I went to the Christmas market at Nuremberg.
______________
* And by that I mean sadly not a surprise at all.
