As a denizen of North Carolina, let me assure you that such a report would be both accurate and comprehensive

I also spend a lot of time on Tumblr

Great piece but I’ve got an aside:

The statue of Francis Marion is there because he was a hero of the American Revolution against the British. He’s a South Carolinian who kept the British from pushing forward from the captured city of Charleston north to Virginia where they would have attacked George Washington from…

I went to school in Charleston in the early 90s.

I will wear a Go Pro that is streaming live to the whole world.

Why is anyone bothering with children when mine are OBVIOUSLY the cutest, smartest, and most talented and there’s no way anyone else can win? Idiots.

Okay, so I am in a bad mood, granted, but this is so far out of my ken as an ordinary citizen that I am not feeling it. I understand that women actors in Hollywood are up in arms over smaller paychecks than their male counterparts are granted and well they should be, but how does this impact us as a whole? So Jennifer…

And what does my husband have to say about this? “But does she have a raptor squad? No? Girl ain’t legit.”

i love, so much, that her parents, more or less unprompted, blew up her spot.

What do those of us do who do not have the budget for much more expensive ethical clothing options? I work in a professional job so I cannot buy only from Goodwill, but my budget is around H&M levels so I can’t exactly go all out with American Apparel either. :( If you know of any budget friendly conscious brands…

Why? It was a nice breath of fresh air in this usually depressing show. It’s fine if some people get to be happy. If you must, think about poor Sally and then you can feel like the sappy love was cancelled out by her misery :)

I just now noticed that that must’ve been the intended message of the video to Katy Perry: “I can get half the women in the industry to be in a video that is essentially a middle finger to you, just by asking. Everyone is on my side…BITCH!”

Offended by the comparison: this guy

I don’t believe the child birth story. “That is no excuse. I am extremely disappointed. You need to figure out where your priorities are” is too perfect a villain’s line, and if it was typed like this, he likely didn’t know the employee took time off for the delivery. Also weird is Vox’s phrasing that the employee…

I bought two maxi dresses, two maxi skirts, and two long tank tops. I cycled through these six pieces of clothing for about three and a half months straight while pregnant. There was no way I had energy for anything other than “reach in closet, grab thing, wear thing.”

Maybe they were trying to (unsuccessfully) delouse him?

Bread to go along with the potato? Say what now?
