Wtf?

I got an email thanking me for my order with Parents.com. It was sent to an email address that I use only with Livejournal, ffnet, and with friends. The email said their magazine will go to my old address - an address I haven't lived at for 2 years. I certainly did not place this order!

I started worrying that someone got my credit card or bank info. Checked all my accounts just now and there are no charges I didn't make. The email from parents.com says my "order total" is zero - like I'm being charged nothing.

But I don't get it. Not a lot of people have this email address of mine, and pretty much anyone who does would have to know that I moved two years ago.

Of course a search of parents.com finds no phone number that I can contact them at.

What do I do? I guess I need to keep checking all my credit and bank accounts to make sure that no one has hacked them.

Racism sucks

My friend [livejournal.com profile] razycrandomgirl posted a link to this video and it needs to be watched. Even though it’s painful to watch because hearing about people’s racist attitudes really bothers me.

Some actual tweets mentioned in the video, in reference to The Hunger Games:

‘Rue being Black ruined the movie’.

“When I found out that Rue was Black, what happened to her wasn’t that sad.”

(I wish a plague of gout on whoever tweeted that)

“EW Rue is Black, I’m not watching.”

In shows, people kill off token Black characters all the time and it gets ignored. Black characters have been getting this sort of treatment for years. And that sucks.

I didn’t read The Vampire Diaries so I can’t comment on this girl’s remarks on that, but her video is still definitely worth a watch.
