Bets in how many well-meaning but infuriating comments I’ll have to endure at this family function?
Dedicated to the strange cares in my life.

Not doing well.
I was feeling really good there for a few weeks, but now I feel awful- Really run down and some pain in my lower left side that I think is getting worse.
The thought of going to work this week is really daunting.

what to wear when…demolishing the imperialist assumption that a woman in a hijab or other head covering can’t be free, feminist, fashionable, flawed, feminine, funny, liberated, brave, badass, modern, innovative, assertive, smart, sexual, critical, cute, confident, complex, competent, or complete (requested by and dreamed up with akitron).

COME WITH ME ALICE. YOU’RE TOO WILD, TOO BEAUTIFUL, TO LIVE IN CHAINS. YOU BELONG OUT HERE. A ROSE IN A VASE IS NOT A ROSE IN THE FIELD. IT WITHERS.
WHERE WOULD WE GO, LUKE? WHAT WOULD WE EAT?
ANYWHERE WE WANT, MY LOVE, AND ANYTHING WE CAN CATCH OR FIND IN DUMPSTERS. YOU THINK YOU HAVE SECURITY BUT YOU HAVE SHACKLES. YOU THINK YOU ARE LOVED BUT YOU ARE A TOY FOR OTHERS’ AMUSEMENT. I WILL SHOW YOU FREEDOM. TOGETHER WE WILL BE UNSTOPPABLE. WE WILL SET THE WORLD AFLAME.
I DON’T KNOW, LUKE. YOU’RE JUST TOO DAMNED HANDSOME TO TRUST.
I CAN’T HELP THAT, ALICE. I WAS BORN THIS WAY. THE UPSTAIRS WINDOW IS OPEN. DON’T PACK A BAG.

Amy Poehler is the best and Seventeen magazine is the worst and the only thing I would add to that answer would be a solid “Fuck you” after the end.
I really hope teenage girls take that to heart. Do you, hopefully you’ll find a guy who digs that.
