I’ve seen shit like this a lot lately. Wearing my hair as it grows out of my head is “laziness”; choosing not to groom my pubic hair is “bold” or “defiant” (from a stupid buzzfeed style quiz); Having clean, unpolished toe nails are “brave”.

I miss having hair. It was always naturally curly. Going to go pout now. (not really, I made a choice to be totally bald and not baldish).

“...naturally curly hair is making a comeback” - oh goody for us. We get to be “in” for a short time until everyone goes back to what men like. Which is usually long and not judged “wild.” Surveys have shown that people peg curly haired women (especially WOC) as “easy” in first impressions. Bad hair/don’t care.

Now its a party up in here!

It’s so disgusting to try to dehumanize women by describing sexual activities they (supposedly) engaged in, too. Notice she goes for (egads, gasp!) anal, here. The last taboo for the proper woman! ::eye roll::

We get it, Kendra, Holly is a happier, more successful, and more liked person than you are, and you will never forgive her for that.

Well, just imagine you’re the one who sacrificed your body and almost gave your life to your country, and are now paralyzed and dependent on your partner.

I am sitting here at my desk bawling. I was tearing up some, but the shot of her picking out clothes than pans over his uniform...reminds me of too many my brothers and sisters who are in a similar situation. Damn. Loved this.

2nd favorite part:

This video truly overwhelmed me. The military uniform in the closet implies he’s a wounded vet. I also *love* the part where the handsome, able-bodied man gives her the once-over and she smiles back, showing us that she might daydream of an easier life, but her exhausting devotion is a conscious, constant choice. It…

This is one of my favorite scenes. He doesn’t say anything, he doesn’t have to as his face says it all.

I love Marla Hooch with every corner of my heart.

So I only scrubbed through that video but I have to say that Mr. Shyamalan needs to switch to music videos. That thing captured the essence of what it means to love and be brave for someone (and I mean that for both people, not just her).

How is it that this man turns me, cynical overrational jaded atheist, into a pile of seduced intellectual porridge pining for an Obama hug?

Oh man. The adoration in that little girls eyes. Americans you’re never going to see such love for your leaders in the eyes of your children again. No matter who becomes President.

I remember being around 10 years old and seeing Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure for the first time and thinking the scene where Bill finds out Ted isn’t dead, they hug and then both say “fag” at the same time was the funniest thing ever. My parents quickly disabused me of that notion the first time I tried that word…

I think we all know the most reasonable solution: separate restrooms for conservative men.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: we have more reason, statistically speaking, to fear conservative men in bathrooms than trans men and women. Between Larry Craig, Dennis Hastert in the locker room, among others, republican men get up to much seedier shit in a restroom than trans people.
