I think an issue is many liberals don’t know the difference between criticizing an ally (which you can do fairly easy and calmly since odd are they made a mistake, are simply misinformed/under-informed, and are coming from a place of waning to help) vs. criticizing an actual bigot or an enemy. One of them is pretty…

One of the coolest things I ever saw was a ton of Hetalia cosplayers actually making a world map by laying on the floor in one of the atriums of a con. It took a while but it was amazing when they were done.

It’s usually somewhere in the late teens that you find that one pairing that is so fucking weird that you realize people will ship anything. For my clique of nerds it was the discovery, made by one of our younger members and shared with the group, of a Hagrid/Dobby fic. I have since been unbothered by mad shipping…

Yeah, if this was tumblr Junkrat would be on there and pretty high up. Dude is shipped with EVERYONE (I’m into Boombox myself but Roadrat is the biggest with Meihem, Merrat, and Symrat also in the mix).

My grandma’s staying to do the women’s march. My folks are praying nothing happens to her (mom would go to keep an eye on things but she’s teaching and Dad is going to be out of town for work).

Weddings and prom are pretty much it, yeah. I did have some fun looking for prom dressed back in 2010. There was this one that had a full ballgown skirt but it was made of tulle. And the tulle and corset were both so stiff that I stepped out of it and it stood up on its own. That was hilarious.

Hell ignore the celebs, wouldn’t MOST people do this?

Here’s the thing: I already don’t watch too many live action movies. So it wasn’t as clear to me until the thing with The Artist no. A lot of time I’d either seen one or two of the others in the running or at least heard they were very good by some metric or other that I trusted. But The Artist was SO gimicky and SO…

And they’re already trying to tank Perez the same way since they’ve decided Ellison is Bernie 2.0

Yeah, The Artist is a big part of why I don’t care about these award shows much beyond Best Animated. A forgettable movie mostly about being artsy and playing up the “good old days” of Hollywood.

Seriously. There is a huge post going around tmblr right now smacking the far left with “Do you people even remember the Bush Years? The Terror Threat Level? The Free Speech Zones? The two wars? How close we came to an amendment banning gay marriage? And you diss Obama as a conservative* who’s done nothing?” Some of…

Yep! Just a neoliberal pawn for the oligarchs, that Perez! He’s done nothing ever but support corporations, all that other stuff doesn’t matter at all!

Perez is seen as establishment and went with the administation in backing TPP (at least initially, I’m not sure of his current stance). And while those marks against Ellison may seem embellished to the left, one has to remember to the center they may seem bigger. But the far left is playing it as Bernie Mark 2 vs.…

Exactly. We need to look at what is the bare bones stuff we need done and then for the rest work on how to get it done in addition. We need to be able to articulate our arguments for why that needs to get done in the most straightforward manner possible. If it takes you more than a sentence or two, you may have…

What’s worse, a ton of liberals are STILL hung up over that and want to purge the party of what they consider “Hillary’s poison” or they claim they’ll never go Dem again. Like, okay, you REALLY want to make it easy for the GOP then? Like seriously, some of the shit in the Perez vs. Ellison for party chair is getting…

WELL SAID

That happened to my mom. She got it at the beach and assumed she’d sat on something sharp (due to blood and accompanying cramps). Her nurse mother gave her correct info when she told her but damn what a thing to think.

I remember when my friend got her period at a water park and kept trying to tell us with code words. “My aunt is in town.” The rest of us had no clue until she hissed she was bleding “down there” and needed quarters for a tampon.

Seriously. I made my dad buy me tampons just two weeks ago (I was visiting them and got sick right as I ran out of my own so someone else had to and mom was also sick). I have had to describe the brand thoroughly so he bought the right tampons (he did). I explained why not to buy the super ones eve tho I have a very…

I think that ight fall under biohazards so just spray one with red Kool-Aid since he won’t know the difference.
