Well they did cancel Bunheads so you may get your wish, sadface.

Nice! But "bucktoothed philanderer with a loon-ie back side" does have some real potential.

I really hope she does, because I don't want Charles' face on my money (I'm Canadian and I like that our money has an aging white woman on it instead of dead white men).

I don't have it but one of my close friends in Grad School did. The best thing is to let a buddy know about the situation (and that it's not a joke) so they can help out when they can. I know that for my friend she was fine with close friends once she heard their voice and would often rely on clues like hairstyle or…

Planet Money just did the most amazing podcast on ticket pricing and talked about how some artists are trying to keep ticket prices low but the scalpers are always one step ahead of them. It's well worth a listen.

I do believe they are, but the scents on them (the materials, not the smell of blood) does attract animals and they dig them up and make a mess. Also most of the places I would travel didn't have enough soil to get them properly buried and it can really make a huge mess on high traffic routes.

I found that rolling it between my hands (kinda like making a snake out of clay) really helped soften it, as well as washing it in hot water got it to break down. I use the fold technique (as opposed to the clover) and you will know when it is properly inserted. I found that when I first got it I would use it on…

What's even better is when you wilderness guide and you have to store your used tampons in a double sealed plastic bag till the trip is over or you suck it up and have a really hot fire to burn them (those things do not want to burn).

I adore my Diva Cup, mostly because I can wear it for an 8hour stretch (like all day at work or all night) and not wake up feeling "damp" from the damn tampon string. While the enviro benefits are nice, the whole "I'm in control of when this thing needs changing" is my fave part.

These days in many communities chiefs are elected to run their band/community, so in the modern system of elections, yes there could be as many chiefs as there are mayors. But I hear what you are saying and in all likelihood most of the people calling themselves chief have never been one.

It's going fine, they moved most of the info to the twitter feed. Most of the original cast is back and filming is going well.

I hear ya! Except I don't have friends or a great body, so its mostly lonelyness, confusion and a job I like but I don't get paid nearly enough at, but I am only 28.

That is a very cool spot, I participated in a cleanup on the river (we were pulling elephant ears, an invasive semi-aquatic species) and as our reward we got to take a private glass bottom boat tour. The springs in Texas are pretty awesome, although I did live in Austin for 3 years and never did manage to swim in…

Yeah, I don't get this. If I wanted to spend $200 on a meal I would much rather do it not with the sort of people who would spend $200 per plate on a meal that would go for $50 in a restaurant.

I call myself a fakeatarian or flexitarian basically I eat vegan when I want to eat vegan and I eat meat when I want to eat meat. I never try to pass myself off as vegetarian unless I'm RSVPing for an event and I'm worried about getting squigged out about the meat option. And then I'm usually around people who don't…

Because I much prefer the interface of Reeder to Feedly (and right now I'm using Newsify so I can read between my iPhone and iPad without trouble).

Kirk Watson was my state senator when I lived in TX. He is a total rockstar!

So when we naturalized as Americans it was in a hot gym in the Houston suburbs on a September morning and the female judge presiding over the ceremony finished all the legal things she had to do and then announced "I want y'all to remember that you are Texans first and Americans second".

Yay! I wondered if you were out there somewhere.

One of my close friends (and former housemate) just shared the picture of herself in the rotunda last night with what she describes as her "OMG I'm at a protest" face. I'm so fucking proud of her and everyone else in that sea of burnt orange (Hook 'em Horns) that reminded everyone that it's our responsibility to make…
