Hey Jezzies, something a friend said to me has been bothering me all day. I know it says more about her than me and I responded as well as I could at the time but I feel like I might have to raise it with her next time we speak. Basically we were discussing how clothing is cut and how it doesn’t necessarily suit every…

This is either going to be like N’Sync and they’ll never work together again outside of a minute or 2 at a VMAs or they’ll get back together for a reunion tour and greatest hits album for an anniversary like Girls Aloud and then split up and give bitchy interviews about each other. For some reason I love interpersonal…

Children by Robert Miles.

I have a friend who keeps saying that any woman around 30 is running out of time to have a baby, I’ve tried to shut it down by saying that person might not want children and telling her actual fertility statistics, but I think next time I’ll just tell her she sounds like the Daily Mail so I would prefer she either…

Codecademy is a good place to start, I like CS50 as the videos are approachable and quite indepth. There are lots of resources online, one way is to pick a language and then see what free sites have good reviews, if one tutorial doesn’t suit you one in a different style might.

I think Topshop could easily afford to buy mannequins in say the three sizes they sell the most of and use them in their stores. They can still be aspirational but reflective of their customers.

I’ve never looked at mannequins for guidance either I wouldn’t expect them to be proportioned like me but for proper display of the clothes, I think it would make more sense if the mannequins didn’t appear to be of the smallest size they manufacture. An in between mannequin size would make it easier for a customers to…

I do agree her word choice could be better but if the mannequins are supposed to be representative of the clothing they sell then using the smallest size as the example is kind of ridiculous. Unfortunately a lot of attempts at celebrating women’s bodies devolve into the privileging of one body type or shape over the…

And also they live in Monaco, which is one of the richest places in the world. If you’re going to make quality of life comparisons nowhere else is going to be able to compete.

I haven’t been following this case extremely closely but the gist I got is she made allegations that got her ex husband’s visa revoked in an effort to keep him from seeing their children but a judge ruled both parents should have access and sent the children to live with him. If the children live in Monaco now then it…

Ha! I removed it because I thought it was a bit too much once I saw it actually posted. But here have it back.

Almost comment twins!

Charlie Hunnam will always be Aidan Gillen’s underage boyfriend from Queer As Folk to me.

The whole relationships are hard narrative seems to encourage people to stay in desperately unhappy situations, I’m rounding out a decade in my current relationship and while it’s not always easy I wouldn’t characterise it as hard.

The name she wasn’t using was Miley. She was talking about the difference in how Wrecking Ball and Anaconda were received by the VMAs, I don’t think it occurred to her that the clues she provided as to how differently she was treated than that other girl could lead to Taylor until Taylor got involved. The vagueness…

She definitely should have provided at least one additional clue like maybe saying compared to last year, the twitter character limit probably caused her to be too brief.

I think Nicki’s not naming names made people think of Taylor but she was actually talking about Wrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus at last years VMAs.

Nicki mentioned another girl who broke the viewing record and got nominated for video of the year at the VMAs referring to Miley last year, Taylor wrongly assumed that she was talking about her because Bad Blood broke the record held by Anaconda which was previously held by Wrecking Ball, Taylor’s wasn’t the white…

If this were a major Hollywood film with how little they resemble the actors they’re supposed to be portraying, we could be confident that their acting must have been excellent enough for the casting directors to overlook their appearance. I don’t think that holds true for Lifetime.

I don’t agree with non Native Americans wearing Native American style headresses but Susan Boyle has special needs and probably doesn’t understand the issue so let’s be kind.
