Take “Liberal” back! It’s only a bad word to those who think it is.

I took that class too, and still have the red Oxford Annotated Bible on my shelf. I remember the class starting out really boring though; talking about Yahweh this and Yahweh that, I was like, what? I thought we were going to use narrative structures and apply them to the Bible, but that’s not exactly what the class

And the funny thing is John Oliver already addressed the dumb advice ‘just unplug your computer’ as useless and wrong.

Man, this dude keeps getting better and better.

Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

Yeah, look at Alexa Chung. She looks white to me. And Keanu wasn’t so obviously Asian, so he got cast in super big roles. I worked with a guy who was a quarter-Vietnamese and you would never know it, except for his preference for pho.

This.

“Dear, you know I can’t possibly drop the kids off at school because of the new law. I know you have two early meetings today and wanted to fit in a gym workout, but you know, law. And, you’ll have to pick them up too from school at 3pm and drop them off here. Yes, I know you work until 6pm most nights, and this might

Amen. This.

That woman’s job is fitness. It’s not like she has another job that she must go to, and then get fit around that. If your job is to be a fitness model, then you should look the part, right? That’s my excuse (not working in fitness) and I’m sticking to it!

My daughter does this as well. I’ve seen very few “Toddler & Tiara” moms on set. But pageantry is different from kid modeling or acting. Very often, someone has selected your child from a photo or from a one-minute audition, so it’s all largely out of the child or mom’s hands. And no amount of hairspray and glitter is

Wow, I’m going to create a folder like that. Thanks!

The handmade font on the banner is super impressive!

That happened at our school. The valedictorian in 1987 LAUSD was a kid who took zero AP classes and I was in five of them, so I know he didn't take the 5 I was in.

Bravo for this.

You like New Girl over The Mindy Project? When Jess and Nick got together and Schmidt's role was relegated to empty sidekick, it went downhill. And then they had to introduce Coach back in as some sort of life-raft for the dwindling story lines. I have 10 episodes saved on my DVR and only go to them as a last-resort.

So true! Thanks for stating that. There are plenty of shows where there is little or no diversity, why focus on Dunham and Kaling's shows?

I know what you mean. I look at my daughter and think about what will happen to her. On the one hand, teachers have told me that my daughter doesn't need a lot of external validation from others and she in her own right (at 5) a pretty tough cookie. She does not harbor fools well, so I think she'll be okay. If this

I don't even have to read your entire post to Star you! You go on with your bad self!

Yes, I definitely think that Asian women are complicit in their own fetishization and Asian women should reflect on how their own attitudes and behaviors perpetuate negative stereotypes about them.
