ain't safe for work, nope.
beatonna:
Last night I was emailed some porn that someone drew of me because I said a thing on the internet that they disagreed with. Because, there you go, ‘justice.’ When stuff like that comes your way you don’t usually say anything because who gives a fuck, but oh well, let’s do it anyway. So, I’ve seen that shit before because I’ve been on the internet for 100 years, but it always looks...

Oh noes! =( Do you know why it happened…?
Allergies is my best guess, this is the second time now and it’s always at Consort’s house after a bad allergy day.
I don’t want to be a butt but it’s scary when it happens and sneezing and blowing my nose all day and having sore lungs is...
Waking up in the middle of the night wheezing and having a hard time breathing: not my favorite thing.

I wear my Snuggies backwards.
Every time I think I’ve got these muscle things all good and strong, then I go to yoga and find out that I have muscles I never knew I had, and they all hurt.

bricksandmortarandchewinggum:
reading Natface’s Oscar post made me think about Billy Crystal. Can you imagine there was a time when he was a romantic comedy lead? Like people were actually encouraged to find him…I don’t know. Desirable?
Yes he’s old and all botoxed up now but look at him then:
I mean really. Is this that…

Albert Goldbarth, "The Sciences Sing a Lullabye"
unknowablewoman:
sharingpoetry:
Physics says: go to sleep. Of course you’re tired. Every atom in you has been dancing the shimmy in silver shoes nonstop from mitosis to now. Quit tapping your feet. They’ll dance inside themselves without you. Go to sleep. Geology says: it will be all right. Slow inch by inch America is giving itself to the ocean. Go to sleep. Let darkness lap at your sides....
Sometimes being on tumblr feels like whispering in a hurricane.
precor:
I like being alone, but I hate the feeling of being lonely. When you’re alone, you have time for yourself. Your thoughts finally catch up to you. You set your mind on things and everything is just clearer. Nothing’s bothering you and everything just feels right for once. When you feel lonely, you feel as if no one’s there for you. It feels like no one understands you or is willing to...

“If I was a woman these days, I’d be killing motherfuckers. My handgun would...”
– Henry Rollins, Solipsist (1998)
Why do you have to be a woman to be angry? Why don’t you give this “killing motherfuckers” business a try and let us know how it works out for you.
Meanwhile, stop trying to empathize by telling women how they should deal with their oppression.

Ingredients of Love →
guerrillamamamedicine:
juniper glass How would you define love?
bell hooks Love is a combination of six ingredients: care, commitment, knowledge, responsibility, respect and trust. I found that a lot of people just felt really confused about what love is, so I said, here, take these six ingredients and as you go about your life, you can ask: the action I’m taking, does it have these six...
Oh, that’s the nicest thing.
Walking in the door from a run to find a pot of hot chicken and rice soup on the stove.
Lunch time!

“One person’s harassment is another person’s flirting.” “It really isn’t a big...”
– @dstessel on sexual harassment on #WMATA (via stupidfancy)
Easy for you to say, Mr Stessel… when’s the last time you were harassed on Metro?
So I broke a program at work yesterday but I was planning on working from home today because I get 100% more done using that program if I don’t have people in my office bugging me every 15 minutes. But if it’s broken I should probably go in and find something else to do.

$5 per gallon gas by Memorial Day
nom-chompsky-incogneato:
I was riding in Consort’s dad’s vehicle (a GIANT SUV) and he was whaargrbling about how expensive gas was and how it cost him $70 to fill the tank last time.
And I bit my tongue (as I do in many interactions with Consort’s dad) because I really don’t want to hear about the price of gas while rolling down the road in this huge wasteful...
