Last year for Christmas I was doing photo collages for each of my parents. Tons, TONS! of pictures of me and my Dad. Pics of Mom? Nowhere to be found, because she took all the pictures. I finally had to get in touch with my uncle to find enough pictures to finish her photo tree.

I also hate that ‘selfie’ have taken away the right of strangers to ask each other to take their picture. I would rather someone else snap my picture, but society says I can do it myself.....so it feels weird to ask someone else to do it. Anyone else feel this?

Question: does it count as a selfie if other people are in the photo ?

On a related note, my grandmother spent the entire decade of the 80s with a huge video camera on her shoulder, taping literally every family event. We teased her about not being able to actually participate in the events she was taping. In 2016, everyone is now my grandmother. She passed last year, but she would also…

I know as a feminist I’m not supposed to do this, but fuck it:

It’s unthinkable. I can’t imagine what on earth she could have done, even. Maybe she’s a light bleeder and wads of TP were enough? But even then, it’s so uncomfortable and so terribly, terribly dehumanizing.

I’m starting* to think Trump is a pathological liar. He constantly lies about trivial things, his lies are instantly and easily exposed, yet he continues on as if nothing happened. Take for instance all the supposed speakers at the convention. Right after he says Big Ben and Tebow will be there, it’s immediately shot…

It’s a set-up to fail. Kudos on managing it! But oh this is so wrong.

I could almost (but not quite) get past the no-pants thing if it wasn’t for the fact that NO FEMININE HYGIENE PRODUCTS? Are you fucking *kidding* me? And I get stressed if I don’t have an extra just-in-case tampon in my bag when I run to the grocery store, even if I'm not bleeding at that exact moment.

She’s a very young woman herself too, and this warrior judge woman. I think I’m in crush.

As someone who had to go through this, I can attest to the difficulties.

And then there was that long pause where she’s trying to figure out how to phrase something before she finally says,”That would be inappropriate.” I think her prior sentence was “What you should do is...” and then the long pause. She is all but blinking out “SUE THESE ASSHOLES” in Morse code.

Of course he’s full of shit, every single thing he says is a stupid lie. He’ll never debate Clinton in any kind of real neutral setting, he’ll only do it if he can arrange for a moronic circus scene full of screeching idiots who roar over his spastic twitching and dopey insults. He’s a grade-A coward, a sleazy punk, a…

The other thing I notice is that Wolf repeatedly apologizes to the woman and notes how humiliating this must be for her. The judge is not a hero—but this should be obvious to anyone who recognizes that black women possess the same humanity as everyone else.

Basically the police chief originally assigned to this case was so convinced he’d caught a congressman, he completely botched the investigation, and by the time they found her remains, any hope of DNA or other evidence was gone.

Recommending 75 days for not completing diversion for a first time shop lifting charge? I’m also curious how she failed to complete the program, given that some of this usually involves paying fees.

Her poor mother has said that it feels like it’s completely fresh again. What a lot of people don’t remember is that this was THE main news story of 2001 (May) until 9/11 happened. I can’t even imagine what her mother is going through right now.

Ah the glorious 90s! I’m gonna bust out my flannel shirts and grunge it up. No heroin this time around though!

There are records of him attending a meeting in the White House and delivering votes on the House floor during the time window of Levy’s disappearance.

I was startled to see her face on the Washington Post’s homepage yesterday. A real blast from the past. A Clinton is running for the White House, Donald Trump is in the news, Pokemon is wildly popular: We’re living in the 90s again!
