well i guess it’s about time james franco finally became a man...

so are the old clinton era bits of incarceration legislation that she supported for decades...

i mean, it’s a ridley scott film. considering there are any poc *at all* in the film is a step up for mr. all-white/whites in brown face africa + middle east (ahem exodus movie)

no need to apologize. i get where you are coming from, but i think your initial response was perhaps based on lived experience/interactions with people who are used to limited, binary-based u.s. racial categories. for me, i operate with multiple sets in mind precisely because of my experiences/research in latin…

the gun part is not that weird. in a lot of countries, a family member will shoot into the air to celebrate the marriage.

there was a similar version of this dress on asos for a minute (it might still be there)!

lots going on here...important to note considering she is talking about body positivity...

thank. you.

so i’ve seen lululemon ads on jezebel all week. is this some sort of not-so-subliminal messaging to BUY their products by way of snarky criticism OF their products? did i miss something?

or nyc...where damn near everyone with a penis and a flexible job seems to have one! (not that i am complaining or anything)

yeaaah all my money is on this explanation!
