I hate this. I hate this so much. It isn't fair that "pretty" is something I should be able to do and I'm penalized if I can't or won't.

I have a really whiny two year-old on my lap and she spotted this and is obsessed! "Guy, Tree, Mama? Guy/Tree? Oh, uh-oh, come back guy!"
Allies are allies. It's true, Mackelmore and Ryan Lewis aren't gay, but that means that by speaking up for LGBTQ rights their opening themselves up to persecution that they don't have to. It's the same as the men who act as feminist activist sometimes their words and actions have more impact. Is that fair? Absolutely…
I think marginalized groups need mainstream allies. Because the whole thing about being marginalized is that nobody is really listening to you.
For what it's worth, apparently Paul Frank the person isn't really associated with Paul Frank the company anymore. I remember when this first happened, he condemned the party and made it clear that he had no control over the company anymore.
There's no way Pocahontas was a vegan. #deer #pemmican #meat #hunting #i'meffinghungry #jerky
Yup, the fun factor has been tragically misplaced somewhere along the line. I could be cheeky and say it's all Marina Abramowic's fault, but even she was kind of amusing in Jay Z's "arty" video (maybe unintentionally, who knows?).
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE WHITE PEOPLE?! BUT WHAT ABOUT THE WHITE PEOPLE?!

If you haven't heard about the company HelloFlo, after watching this commercial, you won't forget them. They're…
My partner is in a similar boat. Have you tried cannabis? Even if it doesn't make the pain go away completely, it can make it a lot easier to deal with.
Margaret Cho tweeted Oh No Fiasco's new music video earlier today, and it's wonderfully bizarre. I'll give a million…
You should change your name to Persian.Im.Not.
Haha. My best friend is half hispanic half white and people always think she's Persian. Once we went out and twice on the same night she got hassled by our cab driver demanding to know where she was from. She kept saying from here...from the US and they wouldn't give it up until she specifically told them she wasn't…
If you haven't been able to surmise from my little avatar photo off to the side and my non-WASP name (although,…
I accidentally relayed the story of a woman whose legs were ripped off by a snapped cable while on the drop ride. I just like, nervously rambled about it and my friend was like "great" and the people beside me were not pleased.
The latest ones are $14.99, the original first editions are worth a whole lot more, especially since I have the entire BOXED set.
Oh, yeah, I'm cool... so, so cool...
I see this so much as a teacher. The "digital natives" we teach are VERY much examples of this. As just one example, all of our classes have been outfitted with ipads and it is very much encouraged by admin for us to use them as much as possible. So instead of having my students write vocabulary sentences on paper,…
I was also born in 1986, and I think my attention span has become much, much worse the more smartphone/tablet/computer dependent I've become. I used to read constantly as a child and could remain focused on single activities for a long time, but now I have to keep all electronic devices at least 10 feet from me if I…
