“when your little girl
asks you if she’s pretty
your heart will drop like a wineglass
on the hardwood floor
part of you will want to say
of course you are, don’t ever question it
and the other part
the part that is clawing at
you
will want to grab her by her shoulders
look straight into the wells of
her eyes until they echo…

I know a baby who was fat and not in that cute baby way, then at 5 months he lost all his hair except a thick dark brown fringe that gave him the appearance of Hitler.

NO MORE JUSTIN BEIBER!!!!

I'm going to be the asshole here and say it would have been nice if they had not lit her white.

So that's why there were so many of them...

Nope. I want Shredder AND Splinter to both be played by Asian actors, considering they're both Asian in the tv show/all the comics (originals and the contemporary series IDW is publishing right now).

First of all: I love this. So much. I don't even care that it's lunch time. And this child's face, covered in "poo", looking down at her hands. There's so much shame there.

I don't know, this is totally failing to get my hackles up. Are they supposed to be up? Because just replace "girlfriend" with "boyfriend" or "significant other of whichever gender and sexual persuasion you happen to prefer" and it's like...yeah, most of that shit is pretty annoying.

I wish she'd just go back to doing soulful country. Remember this? It's actually really good.

Guys. I'm a yoga teacher. Please don't promote this. Please.

This ad is gross and Doug pointed that out. It's outrageous to feminists- We like men! We don't want to see them portrayed like subhumans because we are VERY used to being objectified ourselves. It feels shitty, and women DO get the most of it, but that doesn't excuse the ad.

Liz Taylor? I thought that old lady threw it into the ocean at the end, and then that astronaut went down and got it for Britney Spears. Did Britney Spears give it to Richard Burton after that?

that's..... odd. my sister in law, who is Orthodox, explained the tradition to me this way: the bride actually shows her face *before* the ceremony to her groom, so that he is sure she is the right one to marry. (has to do with an old testament story, where one of the guys - I can't remember who, not Abraham I think -…

Um, no. It isn't racist. This picture in particular is of an unidentifiable white thing floating in yellow goop. It isn't racist to point that out just because the cuisine doesn't culturally belong to white people — food from ANY cuisine can look hideously gross, and this does. You're an idiot.

Not into the white shoulder straps (they'd be better if they were the same color and pattern as the rest of the dress), but oh my god in that last photo the skirt makes me swoon. She looks so elegant.
