Gawker uses "Mail of Tears" for a cheap pun →
This, my friends, is a post about how the internet is a slow learner. A few days ago Gawker writer Leah Beckmann posted a round-up of crappy reader mail, and in a clear lapse of judgment and lack of awareness of American history, or a blog in her own network’s history, entitled it “Mail of Tears”—complete with a picture of Iron Eyes Cody(the Italian actor who played the...

Beth Ditto For MAC Has Us Seriously Excited →
Beth Ditto — who is known for applying her own makeup with great precision — is launching a limited-duration collaboration with MAC. This actually makes total sense, given the singer’s interest in makeup comes off as genuine, and that she’s talked in interviews about how she loves to do her friends’ makeup. And how awesome is that promo shot? The collection will be in stores...

knightoftaurus replied to your post: Another prof basically outs me as the person in the class as a person with a disability and then no one volunteers to be my notetaker. *sigh*
God I wish I could smack her. >:( btw.. I don’t know if this would help long term.. but is having a tape recorder possible if she’s speaking the notes out loud?
Yeah maybe that would work, I’d just have to find...
Anonymous asked: "not to be rude, but..." is kinda like "i'm not racist, but..." if you ask me
a-little-runaway asked: Don't let nosy anons make you feel anything negative. They're inexperienced, underexposed, and lacking any relevant knowledge to even somewhat feel prompted to ask such an impertinent question. You know your needs. Never feel the urge to explain yourself to people who have a likelihood of not understanding even once you've exhausted every detail of explanation you have lurking in...

Yep.

Anonymous asked: Okay, so I finally asked him about all this kissy/huggy stuff. And he likes me, too. And we will be doing more of this in the future. =D
