I have seen real life apartments arranged like that. by artsy/renovate-y types living in places that used to be warehouses but got remodeled and divided up into living spaces. Shay’s looks very solid-walled for that, though.

This is delightful. Look at Baby Taylor doing martial arts!!

"Directly" is a strong word!! There is a distinct division between the buttal area and the crotchal area! Otherwise walking would be uncomfy.

The picture attached to the link I followed here seemed to suggest that there would be Westerosi Underoos. I see this is not the case, and I am crushed and betrayed. BETRAYED.

This is terrifying. All political and the-personal-is-political ramifications aside, I'm really just profoundly happy she can still see. There was a rash of cases — I think back in 2011 — of people traveling to places to get this surgery done who weren't so lucky. (The original iris isn't gone — there's an extra…

YOU MUST SHARE. *sparkly puppy eyes of begging*

They do fascinating things with balloons and progressive enlargement. Granted, it takes a while. But I've seen surgeries (on PBS) where they done things like this with cojoined twins, where they have to stretch out scalp skin beforehand in order to have enough skin to cover the surgery wound after separation.

"Artistic expression." "Awareness." Yep, yessir, thanky, I was never so aware until I saw this. Of all the self-congratulatory... guh. He is trying to sell overpriced clothes to rich people. This is a sensationalist attempt to sell overpriced clothes to rich people. Just freaking admit you are trying to sell…

I believe this, actually. It is not something that I am really comfortable saying out loud, as a black person, because I've heard been told conflicting stories and I'm not in a rush to tell people how to define themselves — I'm a bit careful before I say to, for example, a Yemeni student , "You look just like my…

Oh, I agree. That was to make an entirely different point. (Though I did read and essay about a Japanese girl having a wonderful pen pal relationship with a Nigerian girl. But nose bridges didn't enter into it. GOD I'm tired. Never mind.)

Perhaps it's because of the crowd I hang out with, however — but while I think…

The Embu of Kenya, then Sudanic and central — Ghana, Nigeria...

Sudanese variety segues us to the more "classic African" look (Sudan has a subtsantial Arab population, so this is reflected in that collage).

And here I feel you should just look at this cute little Berber baby girl going to school.

I want to stop going in order for a sec, because the next group is what I was talkng about when I say genetic diversity. If the Out of Africa thesis is correct, then the Khoisan people are the cousins of modern day East/Southeast Asians easily (Khoisan kids and parents — original inhabitants of South Africa:

Long picture thread is scary with the migrating captions. Breaking it up. Moving on to the Raya Wollo (4), Oromo, and Afar (5).

So yes, Nilotic: (I am truly, truly sorry, guys, and I tried to resize some of these, but I am not wildly skilled with the Photo Editor software...)
