This is my favorite Jezebel post ever, I think.

I love 4sq's ratings system. I find it is way more honest / trustworthy than Yelp's. Yelp is pretty flooded with trolls, etc, whereas Foursquare is still mostly people leaving comments on the fly, which tend to be more reflective of actual dining experiences. Slash, Foursquare's audience is roughly my age so they

I cannot THIS your comment hard enough. My ethnic background is rather notorious for being extremely conservative with respect to how much unmarried youths (and especially girls) can(not) do. So when these children go abroad to study...it's a shitshow, and they go way too far. I've seen it play out year after year and

Yeah that's basically my take on it: the Marvel/Disney movie machine is way bigger than him and he's not the only creative force there. Yeah, the movie will have his fingerprints all over it, but there's more there than just him and his influence.

Fortunately, others have so I don't have to:

Frankly, I'm more concerned over Gunn's total ignorance of how his active objectification of women is a problem. Shame, 'cause I really liked his work until I realized how much of a misogynistic asshole he can be.

To be fair, it's a bloglomerate.

Pssh, old news. This young lady's been all over Tumblr for over a year.

*shrug* You got me, bro. I just lived with it. It meant for me, as a singer, I couldn't transfer to a less-competitive choral program to guarantee myself a spot at All-State Choir. It also meant transferring high schools after JV for theater one-act competitions and academic decathlon wasn't happening, either.

A lot of that stuff comes down to things that have national scholarships attached to them, as far as I can tell. I'm not the person making the rules. I will say that music is kind of a huge thing — a lot of folks work very hard to rank and place in music so that they can successfully audition for conservatories and

To begin, it is 2014 in America. Arranged marriages are no longer common so there's no reason why we should be completely unfazed by this. Secondly, this isn't the strategic coming together of families for the purpose of building wealth and power.

Totally agree — this is a longtime ruling (at least 10 years) in the UIL rules that govern Texas high school athletic, music, and academic competitions.

FWIW, this is par for the course in Texas — UIL rules indicate that students who transfer schools are ineligible for UIL state competition for one year after their transfer. This applies to ANY event that is "regulated" by the University Inter-Scholastic League: sports, music, arts, academics, etc. So if you transfer

If you have a Netflix account, watch the Justice League episode(s) about Aquaman. He is nothing short of a BAMF.

I kept rereading it to try and figure out why it looked off to me — that's exactly what it is!

This is possibly why my friends have decided I'm Leslie "Human Sunshine" Knope. (My friends characterize me as fearless, which I disavow because lol I'm afraid of everything.)

Preach, sister.

Apparently I'm like <3 degrees of separation from her? New York can be such a weird city.

Like, I love Tina Fey, do not get me wrong, but can we talk about MICHAEL GIACCHINO DOING THE MUSIC!!! YESSSS.

The UCB Theater in Chelsea has been playing an amazing montage of photos of Amy Poehler in stage makeup for various skits/sketches/shows and it is amazing. I'm very excited for this book!
