That's pretty much my feeling on the matter, but then I'm still struggling with knowing that pigs are adorable and mindful little creatures - who also make tasty bacon. Its a process.

Had to google Eggplant Friday. Am now feeling many things.

To be fair - I find it is just as often the English. Its a different brand of obnoxious, but god its intolerable.

EvoPsych is the eyerollyist.

This. Generally speaking, 'religion' does seem to motivate a lot of people do things that are inimical to their well being. When this happens, look at two things: in which direction the power flows, and where exactly the money goes. Cultural context shapes the form these two things take.

I am in this camp. Irish and southern French blood. I love the Playstick from Benefit, their paler colors are actually a bit yellow rather than pink/blue.

I use vaseline to remove my eye makeup and NOTHING works better. I take off my eye makeup, wash my face, put on a retinol, then moisturizer (something with vitamin C) which I put up under my eyes as well, and then I put another layer of vaseline on top of my under eye area. If I have a big event I will put the…

It really depends on family history and sun exposure - some women develop lines really early on and it just makes your face look permanently a little tired. This is my situation. I had very wavy lines radiating out all around my eyes that I felt were really not nice in photos or in person. I went in to have a facial…

I would crowdfund the shit out of this.

A lot of people in England change their accents because its such a class marker, but I for some reason that gave me a…

I would love to see someone work out my tick, which I'm learning is more common than I thought. I do not pull out my eyelashes, but I compulsively touch them. We are talking probably 3 times or so every 5 minutes? It feels like a compulsion, like I have to satisfy a physical urge (not psychological) and I find myself…

Iron + fever gets me every time. At first I didn't think of them together so I missed it. I lost about 3/4ths of my hair between Sept - Dec. of this last year. Cut it short and felt immediately relieved.

I use, "that sounds like something white kids in 'ethnic' pants would do" as a deterrent from most expat related fuckery.

I just wanted to say, since I see you posting on various threads - thank you. I know that it is hard to fight the good fight, especially when people seem so hell-bent on theorizing about something that is your actual lived experience. I had one of these confrontations last weekend, and I decided I was going to make a…

I think she is less talented than people give her credit for. And I think people say she's super talented as a way to explain why someone so unlikeable has become such a mainstay in musical media. She is the character she played in Glee.

I think this was last year, but how awesome is Miss Myanmar? I mean, hockey sticks are cool but, it's pretty badass to rock up with a weapon:
