"Many games are full of exaggerated [male] forms," Alex said. "We don't point at those and go, huh, that doesn't look realistic at all. Of course it doesn't! It looks superpowered, and we like that. The same thing would apply to breasts."

I guess I'm of the mind that we deserve to go down with the ship, so to speak.

If only he wore the right tie pin, then the struggle would be over.

Not only did I do that as a child, I STILL kind of have this problem as an adult. Like, I was buying a houseplant the other day and I picked up one and noticed that it had a few brown spots on the leaves, so I set it back down and started looking at the other ones...but then I began to feel bad for the sad, scrappy…

Ok. To begin with, just because someone is "willing" to sign away something for money - for instance, their rights as workers or personal or bodily autonomy - doesn't mean we need to let them. This is precisely why we have labor laws. Because there ARE people who would choose to work for next to nothing or under…

HAHAHAHAHAHA

"A transaction part business part sisterhood." No. Just no. Fuck the "Jennifers" of the world. Labor isn't "labor." Other vulnerable women's bodies aren't factories in which to construct your family. Find a volunteer or live with your own personal existential tragedy. You aren't owed a baby.

If you are very fair, look for brown instead of black mascara/eyeliner, or you'll look like you're going through that phase in high school where everyone ringed their eyes with a quarter inch of black eyeliner. Maybe even if you're just sort of fair. I've got very fair skin, hazel eyes, and red hair, and if I use…

I very much agree with you here. :)

I basically have 4 eye colors, Chanel and came together — and it was specifically picked out for my eye color and overall coloring. I can do it "smokey" (it's pinks and plumy-browns), or I can do it as a very simple day-wear. I use mascara, eyeliner, and then also brow stuff because…

oooh good tip on the celebs thing. I usually have trouble with the "which celeb has your face shape?" type thing, but "which celeb has your coloring?" is a game I can play!

Kandee Johnson has some great tutorials as does Pixi Woo. They are both incredibly talented, I lurve Kandee's more dramatic Halloween makeup looks, but she does great work teaching the basics.

I started teaching myself how to do this stuff in my 20s and your route is more or less how I did it too. I wear a dark brown kohl liner and mascara every day (drugstore shit is fine), have a bunch of bold lip colours, figured out a good undereye concealer and I got a BB cream recently which is dope. Still not into…

Nooooooot in the slightest. The strength of the monarchy varied by location, of course, but in a lot of places, monarchs didn't actually have a ton of power in and of themselves. Where they derived their power from was how many nobles they had on their side. See, kings typically didn't directly control or rule a lot…

I dunno, it looks like it's judging me or something for poor life choices.

I am now firmly in the BB Cream camp (several years late) the Tarte cream has excellent coverage and adds a great layer of moisture for the winter. I cosign neutral eye/mascara and bold lip but I also suggest getting a nude lipstick close to your own shade, when its at its best. I love a dark red but some days its too…

The tolerance of magic is particularly interesting in regards to blacksmiths, whos work was regarded pretty much as a form of magic in itself. By the laws of the church (in England anyway, and I think France) blacksmiths were actually permitted to make deals with the Devil for the sake of the craft.

It's a misconception that they never engaged in these trades. They did! History!

I don't even want to do my own job. Why the hell would I do yours for free?
