Wolf-PAC, Roommate blues

Parte Uno.

The Citizens United verdict absolutely must be repealed if our country is ever going to see politicians not completely bought and paid for by corporations again. If you're tired of Congressmen legislating and waging war on behalf of big businesses, fed up with politicians trading your civil and worker's rights for favors and campaign money, chafed that your insurance company can outvote you millions to one, SIGN THIS PETITION. Petitions are the only legal recourse we have left.
Granted, petitions are feeble, toothless things, like your local homeless vets. But, if unheard, they're the evidence that we tried to do right and got only lip service if anything at all. Before we can justify anything more drastic, this at least must be done to help secure the moral high ground.

Parte Dos.
My roommate "moved out." Except she didn't, really. She had about 18 hours to pack her stuff and go, and she wasted a good 6, about half of it talking to me about workplace relationship issues. As a result, she left a laundry list of stuff for me to sort, clean, recycle, trash, and/or pack up to ship to her today. That's right, she told me over the phone she wanted me to ship some of the stuff she left behind to her new apartment, to which she failed to give me the address. One of the things she wants me to ship: a guitar. A full-sized acoustic guitar in its case. In order to ship it, I have to buy a guitar box, which runs about $30. She's a sweet girl, but goddamn, she never ceases to amaze me with her inability to pick up after herself. She left her dorm desk stained with a sticker stuck to it that I had to scrap off, left her bathroom fully furnished sans towels and obviously never cleaned, and left her bedroom floor covered in gobs of hair. Other stuff she left, sorted by room:
Kitchen
1 full bowl of baked beans, left uncovered on the counter overnight
1 half-eaten pot (MY pot) of dumplings still floating in their cooking water, left uncovered on the stove overnight
1 cup, used
1 plate, used
1 soup ladle, used
1 disposable spoon, used and left in the sink of all places
multiple jars of unfinished foodstuffs, sauces, and spices
1, 0.5-gal carton of half-drunk whole milk, past its expiration date
1 moldy Napa cabbage
3 rotting tomatoes
5 apples (those at least are in good enough shape to take into work)
4 singlet-bags of ancient carrots starting to turn white
3 bags of ancient ginger root
2 bags of garlic (which I can't eat b/c IBS)
1 bag of rotten chili peppers
3 bags of frozen dumplings (which I can't eat because of the ingredients)
5 packages unidentified frozen meat (2 are either beef or crawfish; the others I dunno)
1 empty container of body butter left on the floor
2 small waste bins, 1 full of plastic bags
2 mostly-empty bags of chocolate chips (can't eat because milk)
1 empty bed-set bag with a duffel bag full of more plastic bags inside
Bathroom (obviously not cleaned anytime recently)
2 bright orange bathroom rugs (rest of the apartment is mostly muted greens and blues)
1 bright orange and pink vinyl shower curtain
3 soap dispensers
1 bottle each of shampoo, body wash, mouth wash, and ear cleaner
2 bottles of body lotion
3 washcloths
1 toilet brush, not sure if used

1 teddy bear keychain
1 roll of red wrapping paper
1 stack of paper (of which I took the unused parts)
10+ stacks of sticky notes (and yet she was always asking to borrow mine...)
1 cheap door mirror (I hung it in the living room - at least that one was useful)
20+ hangers
1 nautical-themed purse
1 pair of white denim shorts
2 night shirts
4 pairs of socks
5 cardboard boxes, some empty, some containing above clothing items
4 plastic bags, 2 full of receipts, more plastic bags, and other packaging material
