A Girl Like Me is a great short documentary (only 7 mins) on this general subject on YouTube. It was made by a young black girl.

So I posted yesterday about how I sprained my ankle. Today it is still swollen and purple despite ice and elevation. I'm thinking if I wake up like this again tomorrow I should go to the doctor or something.

I have a question for you all! I recently started working at an urban elementary school in DC. I am a white woman with medium-length blonde hair and I didn't really anticipate how often the little kids would want to touch my hair. They are absolutely fascinated with it. I also honestly don't mind if they touch my hair…

There was an article a while back, I think on IO9 about how little difference there is between vodkas. It's all branding. They got some vodka afficionadas to try some super-expensive ones and some dirt cheap ones. They literally couldn't tell the difference.

I love her kettlebell dvd's because she explains everything in such detail that you feel like she is right there with you.

Do you generally go for sweet wines, or dry? Given that you're a sugary cocktail person, I'm going to guess sweet and say that you might try a Liebfraumilch (white, pretty sweet) or a Gewurtztraminer (also white, not quite as sweet). As for reds, maybe a Valpolicella? You could also look into Port and Sherry, which…

I always heard Crystal Head was ass, but I've never tried it. The $50/bottle price is too steep for me. Svedka is a really good, midlevel price range vodka. It's only like $15 where I'm from. Ketel One is more expensive, but quite nice as well. White russians are where it's at. The Dude knows what's up. I've always…

If he is willing to do it, here are a few suggestions:

YEAH, WELL, I JUST UNGREYED THIS COMMENT. SO THERE.

Already pretty has some great advice. Check out the "CorpGoth" style. That might be close to what you are going for. Here's CorpGoth's blog. My favourite article about work clothes is this one.

I've posted here about my stupid health problems and the restrictions I never had, but now are a reality due to my stupid health.

I'm not even gonna lie, I judge Gaga so hard for her continuing association with him. Like years ongoing, Beyonce being seen with him once is nothing in comparison.

I totally agree. She is the only one who get's the flack for things that so many others are doing.

I'll save a lot of you guys some time and just get it over with.

PLAIN yogurt is healthy and low in calories. Flavored, sweet yogurt is dessert disguised as something healthy for you. Even (or maybe especially) if it's low fat.

"For some reason, our mothers didn't have tampons in the house, so we just kind of followed what our moms do. [You're taught that] you don't wear tampons until you're sexually active."

Wish I had your foresight, sigh. Yeeup, and the way he's continuing to respond now that everyone is (rightfully) getting on his case—more a fear of looking like a dick than of being one. Feeling oppressed and judged, are we? *eyeroll*

Exaacctly. The issue isn't whether or not black people are proud of twerking. It's about the consistent cooptation of shit black people do. Whether it's respectable, like jazz, or provides secondhand embarassment, like twerking, it's the issue of erasing the innovation of black folk, much like our erasure in other…

Then again, I don't really know much about black culture

You're totally allowed to have an opinion. What you don't need to do is announce it everywhere you go. Are you not embarrassed to just stroll into this metaphorical room and boast about your ignorance without taking some time to try to figure the conversation first?
