It’s because you’re a clever girl.

I don’t know whose brilliant idea it was to take me to see that film, but I was ten-years-old, petrified of aliens, and I left the theater weeping midway through it. I’d consider giving it a whirl as an adult but I’m still scared of aliens :/

It’s weird, isn’t it? I had a friend lash out at me last year because I hadn’t responded to a non-critical text of hers. I was in shock when I read some of her words but then I thought, “Heh, I don’t have to be filled to the brim with anxiety now every time I know we’re getting together. Hm. Ok then!” I was very sad…

If you haven’t seen the doc Pink Ribbons Inc, I highly recommend it. I really appreciated that they emphasized how destructive forced positive thinking can be when someone is terminally ill. How dare anyone tell someone who is fighting for their life to be more positive and gracious. Like you said, there’s nothing…

But there is definitely a type of person who’s constantly “Ooooohhhh, I’m just gonna take some time to really learn to love myself” and “oooohhh, I need to make sure I’m surrounding myself with positive energy at all times” and so on...

Her deer in the headlights look and wooden speaking actually worked when she was younger and playing Rory Gilmore. But then every subsequent role she’s had features the same awkwardness, except now it’s just plain uncomfortable to watch. He performance on Mad Men was unbearable.

I usually hate romcoms but I love The Wedding Singer. I can’t tell if Drew Barrymore isn’t a particularly strong actress or not, but like, it always works for her? She's just so damn likable!

I’m Team Psyduck, but that’s mostly because I identify with how completely inept that species is.

Aww T-Swift looks like every other little girl that I went to elementary school with

I just retched. Sure, it's kind of an ego boost when someone thinks your significant other is hot, but you're the one who has to spend time with them. I'm cynical as all hell but those guys....If they're indicative of how most older guys are then I'd rather just throw in the towel now.

Tell me about it. It’s pretty bad when you’re not even 30 and you’re like, yup, I’m really going to have to ensure that my dog outlives me. Somehow.

This is a month late but, for what it’s worth, I totally understood what you were getting at :3

I think I reread this a few times before I only sort of understood it.

I’m wondering the same. All college age white boys look the same to me. Seriously.

I was really uncomfortable with my reaction towards his appearance in court. My initial utterance was “him?!” It’s particularly disturbing given my own experiences with predators and it really shows how pervasive the image of the archetypal rapist is.

Putting this here for now. I couldn’t believe how calculated the makeover was.

I bet the image of the wholesome, academic, timid boy that he portrayed in court also extends to his ability to convince his girlfriend that he’s a really a “good guy” and just “misunderstood.” The girlfriend could then view the victim as either a slut or a girl who had regrettable sex— both making her boyfriend an…

I get just as upset when people slut shame as when they “prude” shame. Your body, your business. People do and don’t have sex for a myriad of reasons and sexual liberation shouldn’t be based on your number of partners. Not to mention that your count is so subjective. A dozen (cough) partners may seem like a lot to…

It’s scary how many people think you can’t get an STI if you’ve only had sex with a “low” number of people. Thank you for bringing this up!

Her cover of Love Magazine made me feel uncomfortable. I realize many models are young teenagers (which is unsettling in its own way) but she looks like she’s modeling for a glitzy child beauty pageant.
