I’d probably feel the same way if I ever stopped being able to loudly guess TV plot points before anyone else in the room has figured out what’s coming next.

Counterpoint: The dead sea is terrible. It was 50C outside and I felt faint and I lost my shoes. (The actual water is like a warm bath and floating is cool but oh my god the desert is hot and you do not want to take a warm bath when you are there, y’know?)

The correct answer is topsheet -> blanket -> maybe another blanket -> duvet/comforter. I live in Canada and there is still snow outside and I need multiple soft blankets okay?

No I really thought this was a pretty good season too. And the cliffhanger, while kinda annoying, isn’t so bad. I mean I’m of the opinion that it would have still been a cliffhanger and worked well if they’d have just SHOWN US WHO DIED and also I think having a bunch more time to prepare for the fact that one of them…

Hm. My university paper has an annual “best places to have sex on campus” feature. Pretty sure that even still nobody reads the thing.

disagree.

I clicked through to this article mostly, if not entirely, because that is the Best description of Mitt Romney you could ever make. Like my eyes just widened in awe of how accurate it was, and I would never have thought to say it. Thanks for this moment.

There’s some obscure Jewish story (IDK which book, but my brother, a metalhead Jew, has decided that he’d like to start a solo project where he plays this rabbe who was flayed alive as part of an orthodox Jewish black metal act, and has gone to great lengths looking into the most gruesome parts of Judaism for this…

Okay I just read the videogame fashion article over on Kotaku like a half hour ago, which is now shared here, and it linked to POPSUGAR, so I clicked out of curiosity, and this video was one of their first-page articles. Is this your secret, Kara? I don’t blame you it’s a delightful video, but I am having hella deja…

I can’t believe no one mentioned Adam’s pants. What is going on with the detailing there?

I’m not sure if it’s actually getting better or if it’s just chance, but one thing I have noticed is that there are fewer things for me to “discover” on playlists now - I get a lot of music I already know/like/used to really like but that I haven’t sought out on Spotify at all yet, so I guess that means it’s getting…

You’d probably get more mainstream metal and some stuff that’s more heavy metal than death metal. In my experience Spotify doesn’t have the greatest death metal selection and has very little of the weird obscure multi-name genres I like (say, funeral doom) and is bad at differentiating any genre of music at those…

1) That’s...not a spanking.
2) Corporal punishment is fucking bad and doesn’t even work anyway from a behavioural conditioning standpoint so. fuck these people.
3) I will not be taking any “sometimes a spanking is a good/useful/helpful punishment” complaints today, nor will I be taking any “well I was spanked as a kid…

My Discover playlists are okay. They’re generally full of indie hipster bullshit, most of which is fine, and occasionally a few songs stand out so I save them to different playlists in the hopes that Spotify will notice. I’m not sure if it’s working. I use Spotify almost exclusively for the indie rock/pop stuff I like…

so what you are saying is that this is definitely for gal pals, like Kristen Stewart and her Live-In Gal Pal.

(I’m mostly joking. Friends is nice! But also: lesbians.)

My name is Shira, phones autocorrect this to “shoes”, I e-mail my boss from my phone one day and signed it with my name, not noticing that my new phone had not yet learned my name, I have been Shoes at the office ever since.

what the fuck is tumeric milk. when did this happen. is it made from tumeric somehow or do you just put tumeric in it? why would you do that? I have so many questions.

There was a girl at my high school who was exactly like this. She did not have a good time and people were mean to her. She also was mean to people (and thinking she was a cat this meant hissing and scratching no I am not joking) but like, I’m pretty sure there was a lot going on with her and it was both deserved and…

Bite off both ends and use the hollow Twizzler as a straw? And for the pull-n-peel ones you pull apart the licorice in groups of three and then braid the strings and then eat it, right? No??

I actually eat kit kats pretty similarly to the method in the article, but then considering how I have just described my…

I live in Canada in a town where usually by now there’s a good foot of snow outside. Instead today was 17C. So yeah, going outside without a jacket wasn’t the most Christmasy feeling.

Also I’ve been home alone the past few days. It’s been nice and pretty relaxing (also productive!), but it’s just a quiet night for me.…
