His name is so boring I haven’t even Google imaged it to see if I think he’s cute.

Exactly. Racists and homophobes are propping up their self-esteem at the expense of groups they like to think of as lesser. It’s no coincidence you don’t see confederate flag stickers on the back of Mercedes cars in the South—they’re on the back of pickup trucks. It’s a class issue. Poor Southerners and those lower in…

Yep, makes me cry every time, and I’ve seen over and over. I used this clip as a sadness manipulation for a psychology experiment. It was reliable and decreased mood significantly in both younger and older adults:) I am a monster. But it’s for the good of science.

I feel like I keep screaming in the wilderness here, and no one’s listening to me, they keep looking for some complex meaningful story the story is simple. She’s a compulsive liar. It’s a real thing, I know someone who has this disorder and it sucks for her life (which sucks because she can’t stop) and it sucks being…

I remember this fresco well. I took a photo of it on a 9th grade trip and had to get the film developed like one used to do. Photos used to be so precious! <3 good times

I do realize there are individual differences. I’ve talked to several people though who developed joint pain and arthritis that resolved when they started eating meat again. It’s so interesting. Someday we won’t have to guess at the best diet for us, genetic testing will take the mystery out.

I just quit vegetarianism after 25 years of no meat (including fish). I did eat eggs and dairy. I had developed so many autoimmune issues (numerous food sensitivities, chronic GI problems, inflammatory arthritis) and anemia despite eating as healthily as I knew how. Now all those health issues have faded away. We…

Yep. They can’t help it. It’s a learned behavior that develops in childhood. They really CANNOT let go of the lie even when confronted with incontrovertible proof. It’s really sad and isolating, I think compuslive liars probably to seek out groups and organizations to belong to because compulsive lying isn’t really…

If you’ve never known a compulsive liar you can’t understand this woman. But if you have, you get it. Compulsive lying is really interesting. We have compassion for people with OCD who can’t stop washing their hands, but people who can’t stop lying are dealing with the same brain issue. It’s just socially it of course…

My Facebook cover photo is a bunch of biscuits that’s how much I like biscuits. Sometimes I think about changing it but then I don’t love FB enough to think about a different or more suitable one.

Stephen Colbert :( My crush is so bad that in the last year or so I couldn’t even watch his show, I couldn’t even watch the finale, because I would just feel sad. My deluded brain just makes me reject that we are not together. He’s just so NICE, smart, funny, cute. It’s not a physical hurt, it’s a mental hurt. Tom…

I only recently started exercising regularly and I’m 36:( Just pilates, no cardio, until a couple of weeks ago. I’m so glad I started my little jogging project or I’d may have never realized how big a deal my borderline anemia issue was. I didn’t realize cardio depleted iron stores and I had none to give, it was scary…

I saw Dave Chapelle a few months ago and his material was full of misogynistic stuff and one too-long joke about a “tranny” and I wasn’t terribly offended, because I’m not easily, I was just really bored. I thought, hmm, he took too long of a break and he doesn’t realize how dated this is. It’s just not funny, comedy…

<3 SOL! (smiling out loud)

My MIL is a hoarder and got SO EXCITED about the NYT article “Let’s Celebrate the Art of Clutter” that she forwarded it to all of us. She also hoards literally years of NYT papers. I was so annoyed by that article >:[ It’s giving justification to hoarders everywhere!

Yeah I was shocked how incredibly long they drew it out. I really thought the last episode, where it was obvious what was going to happen, that would be all there was to it. They’d show him traumatized when they rescued him, but wouldn’t show—FOR WHAT SEEMED LIKE FOREVER—the actual rape. Thrust after thrust, what??…

I’m glad I joined Stitchfix because I tell them what I want, then they send it to me, then I say oh god why??? But if I actually try it on I like it. I’m just a bad shopper. I get off track and choose the safe thing all the time. But I know in my head what I want and they do tend to send it to me. The struggle is just…

Yeah that’s very strange. The linked video was strange, too. His parents aren’t really defending him, they seem only vaguely supportive to me. ALSO...(I can’t help it) I get a gay vibe from the dad. IF, and I’m just saying IF, there’s something to that I can see how this would make his parents uncomfortable. -My…

This is really gorgeous and I am getting kind of weepy now. Times are changing, and it’s so pretty.

I like Glow. I use it to track my period but eventually I’ll use it to get pregnant...? I’m collecting data now:) More data, more better. It’s easy to use, too. Nice interface, not cheesy. Best of luck!!!!:)
