I'm getting a new job! I currently work for a vendor company and our client is a smaller cell phone carrier. I don't want to give names but they've had recent bill issues and have naming rights for the Chicago white sox. Well I've been at this call center for over three years and I've only gotten one raise in that…

SPARTACUS BLOOD AND SAND. DO IT. SO TWISTED. SO LOVELY.

Absolutely no applicants with an affinity for AFI (aka whiney ass bitch music).

The latex Bikini clung tightly to her buttox as she pressed up against him, head down. Miley glanced back at Robin, and their eyes met in a steaming gaze.

Kaizy, I think if you're worried enough to ask for advice, then you should probably talk to someone. If you're a student, you might have free access to campus medical help; you could talk to a doctor, nurse or nutritionist about sensible eating, and maybe you could see a therapist for emotional support. I know it's…

Oh, sweetheart. You just relax. Herpes is nothing. Nothing. You are not done. Your life is not over. I have had herpes since my 2nd serious boyfriend gave it to me (gee, thanks). I too thought my life was over and I had only been with two guys. Well, flash-forward a quarter of a century and let me tell you what…

The more Natalie Dormer, the better.

Dear Copperboom,

I would love to see the smile on MizJenkins' face right now.

Actually, I have a friend who's an ASL interpreter, and she interprets Taylor Swift concerts. Lots of deaf people still enjoy music (they may have limited hearing, or they can feel the vibrations from the base/beat, or they just appreciate the lyrics). And Taylor Swift has deaf fans. So, it's pretty ablist to make a…

Yeah, it was a bit OTT. Oh, and how BangieB would come down on anyone who would dare to talk about cute shoes instead of being snappy!

A better (albeit 20 years old) country music video for Independence Day.

The great thing about blogging in general is that there's some room for anonymity. You can put some space between your words and your real world identity. So, yeah, blog about it.

Even though I have plenty of other things to be doing with my life, I checked out the first two discs of Gilmore Girls Season 1 from the public library yesterday. God, I love that show—it's funny, it's touching, and it did not deserve to wither and die the way it did. Rory Gilmore is a girl after my book-loving,…

There are so many cool things to do in Seattle! All the typical stuff is worth it: Pike Place Market,Kerry Park in Queen Anne for the view, the Fremont Troll, a ferry ride (Bainbridge Island ferry gives a great view of the city.) My recommendation is to visit the Redhook Brewery in Woodinville. Their tours are a…

In 2009, I started reading Jezebel regularly. I had a tech support job where internet access was restricted, but I could access Google Reader, and Jez was one of the first sites I added to that feed. I read every day through Reader for 6 months before I quit for a better job and moved from a feed-reader to reading and…

So if we push more fat acceptance in this manner (beauty pageants, plus size models, etc.) vs just teaching people to be compassionate and empathetic, I think all it really does is widen the beauty standard a little bit while still placing an extreme emphasis on how women look. This type of shit is only good for the…
