Maybe I’ll be seeing you sooner than we both thought.
Amy Poehler on American Apparel (via mollylambert)
I read this earlier today and love it even more now seeing it’s in relation to AA (AKA DA WORST)
liked it solely for these pearls/nuggets:
“You are probably going to be a very successful computer person. But you’re going to go through life thinking that girls don’t like you because you’re a nerd. And I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that that won’t be true. It’ll be because you’re an asshole.”
(EVEN THOUGH TRENT REZNOR’S MUSIC WAS LIKE, WOW, A GLOCKENSPIEL)
I don’t care how many awards that movie wins, or how many people I know who like it (what’s up, entire tech team at work!?), I remain convinced that the Rooney Mara opening scene was the only interesting part of the film. I was interested then, but sat bored for the rest of the film (except for one LOL at the use of “Winklevii” and many sighs of annoyance at the “asian girlfriend goes crazy and adds nothing to the story by doing so” moment). I’d hire Liz Lemon over Aaron Sorkin any day.
going to a fashion blog and seeing an inspiration post compiled of images all under one of my tumblr’s inspiration tags, sometimes with every credit source linking directly here, so i know it’s not a coincidence.
Unhappy Sam GIF is perfect. I’ve seen a few of those Tavinspiration blogs, usually from the “kewl fashion, here’s my URL 6 times” commenters.
Street harassment is so common in New York, it’s practically a pandemic. It’s so common that I walked from the 28th subway to BUST HQ’s on 27th (that’s a block) and got cat-called five times today. And it’s raining. Goddamn, don’t these men have jobs?
Apparently the thing topping their to-do list is ‘YELL AT WOMEN ON STREET’ followed by the less important, but equally creepy, tasks of: ‘hide in bushes & wait’ and ‘make lots of calls from a blocked number where the only thing you do is breath heavily down the receiver!’ Seriously dudes, not okay.
Of course, the thing to wonder is ‘does this ever work for you?’ but street harassment isn’t really about picking up ladies, is it? No, it’s about exerting the power of your male gaze and making women feel unsafe and objectified on our public streets.
” —Julie from BustAnton and I hit new lows last night discussing get-rich-quick schemes. Speaking of, can you give me money? Please and thanks.
my housemate makes do with digestive biscuits. IT CAN BE DONE! if not, I will send you graham crackers from USA when I get there (OMG OMG OMG OMG)
Eating birthday cake for breakfast with a HUGE ice coffee (feat. ice cream) and weird marshmallow lollies some guys brought back from Hong Kong. Have I mentioned my job is great?
I woke up with a fresh copy downloaded. I had a shower, made my breakfast, started playing it….only to find it had been dubbed in Serbian. This episode is officially unwatchable everywhere.
Season 4 Episode 2 appaz doesn’t work anywhere! I finally soldiered through the shit quality with out-of-sync audio, only to have it end at the 19-minute mark. Eff this. I’m going to eat waffles.
My dream has come true!
U WISH
