Look Not Forward, Nor Back, But Within →
Just a few notes to mark the passing of the year.
My life is not consumed with politics
kfadich:
Proof: today I wrote an herbal paper, painted my nails with french tips and started a scrapbook album for my mother-in-law. We can fight to change the world and still have lives full of joy and beauty and simply magnificent things. We truly can.
I believe that if we don’t fill our lives with something, that makes it harder to care aboiut changing the world. You must be engaged...
Here's an idea!

Tumblr should BUY Missing e.
Tumblr should just hire some programmers — say, like me — to actually FIX WHAT’S Wrong with it and DO SOME ENHANCEMENTS.
My aunt just told me internet friends are "not...

Reblog/like if you completely disagree with her and believe that every single friend you have made here is real. Prove her wrong.
Internet friends aren’t real? What? Posts don’t type themselves. …I don’t get it.
You can tell your Aunt, from me, that if you told me you were dying and needed something, I’d do everything in my power to help you, and if I...
Remember how in Season 1 of Criminal Minds, the...
blodwynn:
I miss that. Can we have that back. I want Season 7’s team with Season 1’s types of cases.
I think it’s harder to do, since we’ve seen all these seasons of truly deplorable crimes. One-upping themselves in the heinous department has become harder and harder every season.
Watchkfadich:
I hate that we still have to tell people not to be a bully. That we have to tell people to just be nice.
Just be nice. Always just be nice.
Anonymous hate is a disease, a cancer on modern society. If you can only get your jollies by anonymously taking down other people, you need to look in the mirror and ask yourself if you’d take that kind of guff from anyone. I’ll bet...
Tumblr doesn't want you using Missing E...
…because that is a not-so-subtle reminder of their inadequacy.
Now playing on Palladia....

Hey. HEY. You leave the Garden State out of it. Can we all at least agree to hating Staten Island? Can we reach a bipartisan compromise on something that simple?

I want you all to know...
Saw Trans-Siberian Orchestra live last night
One word: AWESOME! Of course, the awesomeness was somewhat mitigated by my wife becoming very ill at the beginning of the second half of the show and being taken to the first aid station, but that turned out to be a bonus, because we were then able to move to seats down nearer the stage.

Helen Mirren Wants to Play the Doctor →

geekquality:
It would be really interesting to see the Doctor not only as a woman, but much older than he has been portrayed in a long time. Whether or not it will happen won’t stop us from fantasizing about it!

Helen Mirren can literally do whatever she wants to do.
I could not love her more if this came to pass. Talk about a nerdgasm!

Instead of fighting about one article written by one woman, I thought I’d list a bunch of articles/videos/etc. that were created in 2011 by multiple women! All of these things are great and I enjoyed them very much.*
