i have friends who married at 21 and are quite happy. i have friends who’ve married young AND married someone older and are quite happy.

Ah, yes, the “open conversation.” How exactly do people think that’s supposed to go down?

Well it’s clearly not ‘say yes to the bra.’

Poirot wore bow-ties, not neckties, and even had he worn a necktie, probably wouldn’t have been so sloppy when tying a Half-Windsor. Also, given that the Windsor knot would have been fairly new at the time, Poirot would not have worn it. He was still wearing pince-nez in the 1930s.

I AM a Poirot superfan (actually Agatha superfan, I own every single book she’s written including the atrocious romance novels she wrote under the pseudonym Mary Westmacott). I’m such a superfan in fact that my purse has WWPD printed on one side and WWMMD on the other- Agatha fans will get what this means ; ) Greatest

Thing is, the Western world mistake these ads as wanting to be European. They don’t. They just want to be pale to prove they aren’t part of the ditch digging class. It’s a class thing. Pale= rich. Sun tanned = poor.

I was definitely not putting words in your mouth nor am I trying to fight on the internet with strangers. I’m also not trying to be a dick, so apologies if you feel I’m being one. With that said:

As someone with this gene who has been medically advised by all medical experts (not a movie star) to take the “nuclear option”... Sorry, did you think that being told at 30 that you should probably lose your breasts and ovaries if you want better odds of staying alive is not scary? Because it’s effing terrifying. Oh,

Maybe we shouldn’t judge what other women decide to do with their bodies?

Her mother died of ovarian cancer, at a fairly young age. 7 other relatives died of breast or ovarian cancer .(Her mother, grandmother and great grandmother all died of ovarian cancer.) So I think that makes her health “scares” pretty freaking real with such a strong maternal cancer line.

Aaaaand, now the theme song is in my head.

The most simple way to put it is boys already have “Boys Make Games.” There are plenty of organizations out there to teach coding to everyone. The issues comes from the fact that these are typically geared towards boys and can be quite hostile to girls. In my programming classes we never had more than 3 women. We

There are plenty of game jams and workshops for you. This one is not for you. I can’t imagine that will really affect your life all that much, but if it does, consider it a trade-off for all the other inherent advantages you’ll have in the video game industry. Not having to worry all that much about being sexually

Also FUCK GAMERGATERS. I want women in games, games journalism, and games criticism. BECAUSE I’M NOT SCARED THAT I WON’T BE THE ONLY VIEWPOINT THAT’S CATERED TO. I’m aging out of the target demo of EVERYONE (White, Straight, Male, 35) and everything is boring. I’ve see it all. I want something new. Also, I’m a fucking

But nobody is talking about quotas. We’re talking about summer camps and workshops for girls. Wouldn’t you agree that this is a great way to encourage increasing the number of women in the industry as opposed to having these top down quotas that you don’t like?

Now playing

I think you mean “Hellfire” from Hunchback of Notre Dame.

No, no, we’re good. Thanks, though.

Caroline in the City was a goddamn gem. That is all.
