If you enclose them in a plastic bag, they can last a little longer. Same, if the paper hasn't really been treated with anything special. Glossy paper though? Yeah, that's doomed.

*hi5* yeah, high-waisted things don't really work on me because thing that I put around my waist end up around my hips. *hikes up long skirt..AGAIN*

Do you know if Birks can have the footbed fixed/replaced? I have weird corrosive feet that do nasty things to cork footbeds (and a tendency to wear them in environments they weren't made for), so the footbed was actually the first thing that went on my birks oh so many years ago.

Make it in something other than mustard yellow, and I’m there.

Also, calling them "joggers"? Really? I dare anyone to actually jog in them.

You don't like them. Great! More for me! I walk a ton, so having super comfy shoes is really important to me- way more so than adhering to some rando's idea of "cute".

If "the rest of the white world" is making it all about white feelings and not addressing the problems in their own house? Yes. This is about Black people getting killed by white people. This is about Black people. I have no time to listen to white people crying about their feelings.

The way to do something about this shit is to talk to OTHER WHITE PEOPLE. Tell your racist-ass aunt or uncle to shut the fuck up. Call out racism when you see it perpetrated by other white people. Let them know that their behavior is unacceptable, even and especially around other white people.

Nice to know how you feel. Time to take your #notallwhitepeople and sit down.

I don’t know, especially since in this case the shooter had the emblems of two apartheid-era states on his jacket. I’d be interested to see Trevor Noah’s take on it, as a South African man. Nobody will have Stewart's delivery, but I’m not willing to discount Trevor Noah’s ability to be meaningful and affecting without…

#notallgunowners, is what you're saying? Take a break from this and go think about what you're saying.

White people get to kill other people and live. Black people get killed just for existing. Hell of a drug, indeed.

My personal favorite insult is "potato". And for Prince Harry, it seems doubly appropriate.

Holy crap, it's a Keeshond! I fucking love those dogs! They're so fluffy and wonderful! Good to know they can be complete assholes, though between them and Shiba Inus, I'm wondering if all the dogs I love are secretly terrible.

Ain't the subjunctive a wonderful tense? You can talk about things that haven't happened like they have without ever actually pretending that they happened! Grammar's a beautiful, beautiful thing.

But she would have been the first woman to row solo across the Pacific, which is still a notable feat.

Just so you know, you might want to reconsider using that company the next time you want your house cleaned. http://thebillfold.com/2014/10/my-day… and http://thebillfold.com/2014/11/handy-…. Short version is: they’re shady as fuck.

That man is a goddamn hero. Judging by the look on his face, he knows it, too.

That's awesome. And here I was thinking there was no reason for me to go to Atlanta. Good to know!

Seriously. Deer are cute, but they are gawdawful pests, not to mention the whole Lyme thing.

Or just relaxing hunting laws to the point where people can hunt for the existing deer more easily. As it is, viable hunting land is shrinking rapidly, which means the deer population is booming.
