I wrote something similar to this on the Spektor post yesterday, but I'll elaborate here:

Actually, the GREAT thing about the show is that each character's stories are told from THEIR perspective.

This is SUCH a fantastic show, with wonderful characters and a surprisingly accurate depiction of prison life (I work with criminologists who are impressed).

I do something similar to this with my iphone when I go running.

The only thing missing is the knee-high compression socks (usually pink for breast cancer related runs) that seem to be fashionable for all crossfit freaks even if they don't actually need them.

And she played DCI/DCS Tennison— one of the most fantastic TV detectives of ALL TIME.

I think upperbutt has been around awhile now. At least for college students. I remember proctoring an exam around 6-7 years ago. I was just innocently walking down the aisles looking for cheating when I was confronted with A LOT of ass and thong displays! Most of the female students leaning forward on their desks, in…

In academia (not including obvious art-oriented departments here), it's really pretty amazing if you can manage a resume that (a) uses a consistant font of a consistant size— no strange dips mid-sentence and (b) has all bullets and paragraphs lined up.

I am SO guilty of Lie #1 this summer. I'm ashamed to admit it, but it's true.

I LOVE Any.Do so I'm wicked excited to try this.

If I have to email Michael, I can do it with one touch from within the app. So if you have a lunch with Sarah, it would link to her contact info if you…

It's not about pitying her. It's about recognizing international relationships of inequality.

What was non-sensical about it? (oh, oh, I used a hyphen)! All TWO of those hyphenated terms make perfect sense to me.

Did you even read the article? The image is a SYMBOL of something much larger than just the girl wearing a used t-shirt. Jeez.

Well, of course this would be ironic and horrible in other ways if it were on a girl in a city near me that's mostly non-white. The US has a ton of racial and class segregation of it's own. But, the ways it was ironic and horrible would be slightly different. Inequality is very visible either way, but international…

Actually, I think I couldn't come up with enough words to describe this adequately.

Exactly.

Wow.

Wow, so many people unhappy with their jobs!

I use these images in my sociology classes as an example of how what we do with our bodies (i.e. the sports we train for) shapes our bodies more than gender does.
