FAVORITE BOOK SINCE 5th GRADE 5EVER

At my job, we all have sit-stand desks (yes, it's very bougie), and I rarely use mine for longer than a few minutes a day.

Umm, we all know that lady Bones will chronically be PMSing. Cuz it makes us ladies crotchety!

yep—Nyota Uhura will be Nnamdi Uhuro

Today's XKCD sure is topical.

I have never in my life felt so beaten down by a season. I've lived in the Midwest all my life (except for a 5 year stint in NYC), and walking the 5 blocks from the train to my house on the way home from the gym last Monday night, when it was -6 degrees, the ass of my sweaty underwear literally froze. My fucking

I hate everything.

Claim: The Shining could only be plausible as a story today if the internet were out or unavailable.

Love. But they couldn't find it in their budget to trailer her jeans? Just advocating tailoring your jeans, ladies, whatever size you may be. Yay jeans that fit great!!
