Yeah, H1-B, unskilled my ass. Getting an H1-B requires that the employer prove that the job was advertised in print and that no US candidate could be found to fill the job. It also costs a significant amount of money which the employer has to pay. Additionally, it takes months to obtain. Needless to say, for jobs

Really? Is this supposed to be funny? Only in the US do bra manufactures, and apparently some people think that all boobs fit somewhere between an A and a DDD. It’s like thinking there are no numbers beyond 10 because that’s how many fingers you have.

I am utterly baffled that anyone can look at this piece and find it reverential. It is anything but. Portraying Hitler as a puny pathetic kneeling boy makes him look like an insecure little turd, which one can argue he was. The kneeling can be seen a reference to the brainwashed masses. Additionally, portraying

Right, only Mormons don’t actually have a problem with, for instance, evolution and science in general. Lots of Mormons pursue careers in science, they do actual scientific research at Brigham Young University, the kind that gets published in peer-reviewed journals, not the kind that gets published in someone’s

As a 36HH (I kid you not), I have long since abandoned hope in departments such as strapless anythings, etc. But I would like to tell all the other well endowed ladies, and risk sounding like a commercial, but really this is more of a PSA, that they should look into buying bras from Bravissimo (I highly recommend the

I have to admit, I am appalled by the medical community’s embrace of the BMI as an indicator of healthy bodyweight. It is utterly unscientific. There are simply too many variables. It does not account for variation in bone weight and muscle mass. In women it also doesn’t account for how big one’s breasts are, and they

I think using the word “phobia” when it comes to Americans and touching is not a stretch. Sure, if you’ve lived in the US your whole life and interacted mostly with Americans, it doesn’t seem so weird. If you’re an outsider and have lived and interacted more often with other cultures, it is very much weird. I moved to

You should try Bravissimo. Yes, they don’t have stores in the US (they’re a UK brand), which is a shame. BUT their bras go up to KK cup size, cost around $40, look nice no matter the size (not like dinosaur just hatched out of them). I’ve been buying the same model from them for years (I vary in size between 36H and

Wait, Fringe? You wanted X-Files to be like Fringe? Fringe is what happens when you take all the good things out of X-Files (talking about seasons 1-7, not the reboot): the irony, the humor, the Mulder-Scully chemistry, the attempts at somewhat plausible science, and you’re left with a show that takes itself far too

As has already been pointed out twice, Ivy League schools do NOT offer athletic scholarships. And even though Ivy League schools don’t do enough to recruit people from varied socioeconomic backgrounds, they DO have a tiered tuition system, so if you come from a poor family you can attend for FREE. That’s more than

I absolutely agree, I mean look at this girl - she has a fantastic waist to hip ratio (as some who has done lots of figure drawing and sculpture, I pay attention to proportions a lot). I shop at Torrid and generally keep my eye out for plus size stuff. I am yet to see a plus-size model who has a sizeable tummy. They
