Poverty isn’t just monetary. It is a poverty of resources, poverty of information, and poverty of advocacy. 

I’m more interested in WHY it is common in Thailand to not be able to swim.

I fucking love bikinis. I’m 48, short, fat and 100% do not care. I bought my first true bikini this year and I’m never going back. Absolutely the most comfortable swimwear ever, and I look bomb in it. I’ve finally embraced that I’m not being anything (including fat) at people, so if someone doesn’t like it, not my…

Britney and Justin have been over for nearly 20 years. Holy shit I just felt my age. 

Really? Well, if you say so!

This book is way creepier than the short.

That tree in the picture looks like a perfect climbing tree. I was on a constant search for those as a kid.

I really like Cardi B. there’s something very genuine and confident about her. I hope it lasts. Celebrity can be very damaging.

Or, Liam Neeson needed to be closer to his mark in row 32, a known arms dealer with a penchant for watching shows and who kidnapped the president’s daughter’s friend.

Hey, if the pro-forced birthers thinks harassing women entering seeking a medical abortion is protecting fetal rights (over the woman’s rights), surely harassing the director of a gub’mint child trafficking scheme by protesting violations of rights of living, breathing children should be no problem.

Gwyneth and Brad are getting married in the Hamptons.

Good lord I just read that whole comment.  I am impressed, you should write for TV comedies.  

I wonder what the pitch meeting in GM’s design committees’ offices were/are like. They have to be trolling everyone, right? It has to go something like this:
