I seriously always liked her better with Anders. Weird. @Arianne, it's Battlestar Galactica and watch it IMMEDIATELY.
Looove the idea of throwing them back one. When I lived in Boston, it was apparently commonplace for men to call most women "sweethaaaht" or "babe." I found it infuriating and condescending. London cabbies calling me "darling," on the other hand, was delightful.

I guess what it comes down to is, assume a woman doesn't want a stranger talking to her in an informal, potentially insulting way. You're a stranger. I'm a stranger. Call me ma'am.

"And they themselves were such serial daters that they failed to see that they needed to work on themselves before getting into a relationship with someone else."

Oof, this. I think the ability to be alone and make yourself happy is so much more important than being in a relationship all the time.

Bingo. There's so much crap in these meals that any nutritional benefits are outweighed by the sheer horribleness of whatever's keeping the calorie count down.
These are great. HANDy tip (heh): the chunky glitter ones are easiest to apply, since you can screw up a little and the gaps between the glitter disguises any rips or tears at the tip of the nail.

That being said, get a Sally Hanson nail art pen and practice doing nail art. It's a lot easier than you'd think.

You hit the problem on its head. The magazine doesn't have any incentive to feature less famous actresses on the main cover despite their diversity. Unfortunately, it's the entertainment industry that is more to blame here, at least IMO.
I messaged you. Don't want to give those ladies any free press.
My favorite hate reading is Tumblr "fashion" blogs. There's a small, now-famous group of college aged girls who post shitty Instagram or Photo Booth pictures of themselves, reblog compliments, use the "ask" inbox to share their 18 year old wisdom about life with fawning readers, and get invited to Fashion Week. HUH? Hate them all.
I wasn't expecting Rooney Mara to get a nom, so this is a great day. A GREAT DAY.
Excellent read. Living in Williamsburg, I occasionally come across the Ultra Orthodox and the ladies completely covered up and walking behind their husbands, heads down. Hopefully educating ourselves (all of ourselves) is the step in the right direction.
Am I the only one who spotted a nip slip? It was the chick who hugged the director of The Artist when they won best picture. Please tell me I'm not imagining nipples popping out everywhere.
Do whatever feels right to you. There isn't one "right" way to do anything when it comes to banging.
"Anti-lifer"? Yes, because I want to kill babies. All babies, kill them all.

Fucking idiots.

Lady Violet: "Her?"
Don't skip to the second book, because the first is definitely the best. Either read all three or wait for the second and third movies.
TOUGH ASS BITCH.

Give her an award.

I watched half of this last night and loved it. Brad's boyfriend/partner seems like a fantastic guy and the two of them together are lovely to see. I think Zoe probably went off the drama deep end, but who knows.
Welcome back, Tracie!
It seems to me, from reading two of her posts and having followed her real time miscarriage earlier this year, that she needs an audience. I don't think she writes for us. It's her form of therapy to try and help others, and discuss her own history (which includes an abusive childhood, major trauma in the form of 9/11, and obvious marital problems). She is openly living a life that defies her "best" advice and common sense—I think we should look at her posts as a journal and not legitimate life tips.
