Two points: 2004 school law says no head covering at all (as well as no other “large” religious symbols on the students’ and teachers’ bodies) only in school. Only in school.

*Stefan voice* This video has everything: metallic lipstick, marionettes, dancers in Ikea organizers, nail technicians, mirrored hoodies, and breakdancers on hover boards.

Also don’t own a Keurig, for god’s sake.

Culture change.

I’m a competitive powerlifter—I actually broke the all time world record total in the 123 lb weight class and hold that as well as the world record deadlift of 454 for the 123 lb weight class. Yes, I have video, no I’m not making this shit up, can provide world record certificates/video upon request. My sport runs…

I understand to a point where people use language in certain ways and it is constantly changing (I’m just getting over the fact that ‘literally’ can be ‘figuratively’ now. Sigh) but this is the one thing I can’t get behind. It shakes me to my core.

It makes me even more mad to know that even if these people met…

I’ve been studying in the UK since 2008, and it was after Sandy Hook when I realised I really didn’t want to go back to the US...

They do it because the alternative is accepting that the world is a random place that doesn’t give a crap about humans, and where no one ever really has any control over what might happen to them next, not even if they are a good person who loves their kids and never wronged anybody.

Have met Bill Nye and he really does have a gorgeous complexion. The man doesn’t have pores on his NOSE, for Pete’s sake. Or he didn’t then, anyway, textures can change and it was quite a few years ago.

too salty, unfortunately. :(

The negative feelings associated with weight loss are not discussed nearly enough. Especially if you felt comfortable with your former size. There are people who want you to hate yourself for being fat. For them weight loss reaffirms that belief, even when it is not true. When you lose weight, people start treating…

True story - my mom and grandma have curly hair. My grandma had always gotten shit at jobs for her hair. When she finally got a union job, she wore a straight wig for her entire probationary period (a few months?) ad then the day after her probation was up, she wore her real hair to work and they couldn't say a damn…

And we buy into it! How many times have you seen a woman be scolded by fellow commenters for saying her bra fits poorly? “Oh, you have to get measured. You aren’t wearing the right size. It’s your fault.” Like you don’t get a different measurement from nearly every different bra shop and every bra doesn’t vary…

My friend and I were in Starbucks by the Ritz, and Matt Damon came in. I had no idea who he was, but my friend was all excited. After she listed about 5 films and I still had no idea who he was, she went over to him and asked ‘excuse me, are you Matt Damon’ ‘I sure am’ ‘would you mind giving me your autograph?’

matt damon once stole my taxi, realized he stole my taxi, and then got out so i could get my taxi and gave me a $50 because he felt so bad about it. matt damon is fucking awesome.

I met him at a Stones concert in Prague. Also went right up to him and he was super lovely and not at all pissed about being approached by a random drunk and star- struck girl.

My mom was a server at a Marie Calendar’s in the San Fernando Valley. She had what seemed like a lot of celebrity regulars.

He and his wife came to a fashion show I was working a few years back. So many celebs who come to those shows don’t want to be bothered aside from having their photo taken, they make that very clear, or their publicist does. Not even a little bit true about Damon. He talked to everyone and couldn’t have been nicer.…

Ha! I have a Matt Damon story that *begins* in a Starbucks.

It’s not super uncommon to see actors around Vancouver (BC), thanks to the whole Hollywood North thing. I guess he and his family were up here while he was filming Elysium, and just happened to decide to do the Grouse Grind the same day as my brother and I (he…

This is only tangentially a food story, but it ends up in a Starbucks, so there you go.
