And it may be easier than people think - I know in my husband’s case (he’s in the Canadian Navy) that there’s 3 guys doing his job on US ships compared to just him...

It’s a tricky thing - my mother has a tanning bed at her salon, and the majority of her clients are tanning for their mental health and/or skin conditions (I think it helps with both psoriasis and eczema). Given the choice I think I would certainly tan on occasion to help my skin. Everyone has a cancer switch and some…

*fans self for so many reasons*

Jack White’s version of Jolene is pretty good if you like crunchy guitars. It’s the only reason my husband knows the song - the only thing his parents listened to were reggae and Fine Young Cannibals, he had to discover everything else on his own and old country got skipped :(

Hollywood Hair Barbie - came with a stencil and a spray that changed her hair color. What an outfit!

Came here just to mention getting my fingers in those springs. One of those “what happens when I do this” moments of early childhood...

It is indeed weird that The Martian is a comedy, and Better Call Saul isn’t, though both made me laugh lots.

This is more about what what I’m talking about: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2012/10/1…

It certainly helped - but you can’t easily crack them bones open without cooking them first. And to be fair - that’s just what we know for now. Evolutionary science is a tricky beast - but measuring bioavailability of nutrients from cooked vs. raw foods can be pretty straightforward.

I learned the other day that I’ve been confusing Dave Coulier and Jeff Daniels when I said to my husband “It’s nice to see Dave Coulier getting roles in movies like The Martian”. He laughed at me for a very long time.

Not to mention there’s actual data out there that raw veganism can often lead to many deficiencies in micro and some macro nutrients that folks need. Humans cooking food is what lead to us getting smarter because it can increase the availability of certain important nutrients.

If you look in to other news releases they mention that they will be looking into the victimization of Aboriginal men as well, which is indeed higher than that of white men in this country - however you are wrong in saying that it’s higher than Aboriginal women - they are disproportionately affected at a much higher…

I do algal biofuels research for the Canadian government - so far it seems the only patents are for the tech used in processing (and lately it’s mostly just LED innovations). We’re trying to use local algae from wherever we set up facilities and finding some success with it. Our interactions with Big Oil have mostly…

My mother always chose to do a weekly check-in Sunday morning at 8am and got mad at me when I told her I unplug my phone so my roommate and I could sleep in. I think she’s why I hate talking on the phone.

Does anyone else feel like the Wyatts need to turn something down, and another something up to be more compelling? Like, more crazy maniac and less menacing creep? Or something?

How Do You Sleep? by John Lennon

My baby was stillborn on his due date. This is one of the few scenarios I can imagine being a worse ordeal. And now what does she get? Any bereavement leave? I'm just fortunate that I live in Canada and was still entitled to maternity leave for recovery. Oh man, my heart hurts for this woman.

My family always told me my freckles looked like a cow shit through a screen door. Angel kisses sound not too bad? Maybe a little creepy. I get that.

I miss Jessica Lange so hard. This season is fine (no Asylum though) but she's the effing best.

And it certainly doesn’t get any easier the second time around when you know it’s coming. Ouf. I’ve started reading the spin-off Dark Tower graphic novels that cover more of when Gilead fell and when Roland first became a gunslinger - they’re pretty good if you’re in to that sort of thing.
