I actually like the American Apparel aestethic. The models are normal looking, diverse ethnicities and ages, they look like they are having fun, and they are not retouched; you can tell. Except for the fact that the men don’t do the sexy-70's-porn photos that some of the advertising has, it’s a pretty unique and…

He’s one of my celebrity crushes, nice to know he’s... nice... he certainly looks rather cool and left-wingy

The parents must be the reason of those self esteem issues, at least partially. How can’t the see it?

My mom is a FINE mom, issues and all we love each other... but she was pretty violent for a mom, and my earliest memory of her is her biting (HARD!!!) my arm to show me I should not mistreat my little sister. It terrifies me to this day. Physical punishments are terrible and scarring.

I know this has nothing to do with the article, but I’m happy that some with your sensibility is working/has worked in special education. My sis has Down Syndrome and when she was still a child, studiying a few months in a neglecting classroom made he lose her sphincter control and bite herself... it was a really sad…

And the lead’s boss is 1/8 chippewa. Let’s not forget that.

OHHH DEAR, thanks for asking. See, Im not from the USA, which you probably are (I almost never shop online, and can’t shop in international stores... don’t have the currency), nor I know your size but I loved looking for theese shorts.

I don’t think North’s bikini top is, but both of their shorts look comfortable and age-appropriate. The “bracelets” are temporary tatoos, I think.

such a peach

YES.

My school was (still is) run by the Sisters of Charity of Saint Anne, they are originally from Zaragoza, Spain. This timing of the sacraments seems to be standard nowdays but I just asked my parents and they did it all in one year too.

Oh, this makes me happy for so many reasons

I’m more of a fervent agnostic-apatheist (which doesn’t sound logical, but hey). Used to be an angsty atheist until I took two classes on philosophy of religion with an atheist/former priest.

THIS BOOK IS SOOOO GOOD. It has everything a child that age should know and the story is cute and humorous.

THIS BOOK IS SO SO SO GOOD!

OH NO D:

A funny thing in all this is that, when on an argument about abortion and, more specifically, abortion in a pregnancy originated in rape, I’m sure most mormon will say something like “rape is not the baby’s fault”.

I mean, I’m an agnostic raised catholic and WHAT A CRAPPY PARRISH... that’s not a normal policy, or is it? Where I’m from no one would bat an eye at that... they’d just be glad they hadn’t chose to be evangelical.

Damn, you were fast. Here we usually take communion at 10-13 and are confirmed at 17. I was the “weird vocal atheist” in my school and chose not to confirm.

I DIED OF CUTENESS
