Return from whence you came!
I would pay a lot of money for a scene where Theon tries to throw his letter to Robb into the ocean.
SOMEONE MAKE THIS HAPPEN.
Oh god this is too good. MAKE IT HAPPEN.

whoneedsfeminism:
I need feminism because I don’t want to live in a world where it is wrong for me to enjoy and desire sex.
Because I don’t want to live in a world where sexual women are degraded down to objects and judged as not ‘girlfriend material’
Because I don’t want to live in a world where I have to…

avcnyc:
I’m so tired of being angry. I’m so tired of being less than. I’m so tired of being told if I want to have a career I can’t have a family, and that if I try to have both, I’m a bad person. I’m tired of being told I’m not the kind of person (“I’m glad women can’t be in The Masters, I…
ALL OF THIS.

theboozybroad:
My pal Scott brews his own beers and he graciously offered to send me two of his beers in exchange for some reviews. So here we go!
The first one I opened was the Vanilla Stout, which Scott warned that he didn’t put enough vanilla in and that he meant it to be a porter but it came out really…

I arrived home a little early today thanks to some dental drama that needed to be taken care of. Bottom line, I’m looking like a hillbilly until tomorrow morning, so I’ll be hiding away in my apartment for the night. On most days I can walk Seamus and not see or speak to a single soul, but of…
Check it out, maybe? Perhaps?
So I started a beer blog. →
It’s been in the making for over a year- by in the making, I mean that I locked down the tumblr domain and then was too scared to write anything because the beer world can be really mean, especially to women.
So all I’m asking is that you follow it, if you don’t mind, and hopefully you think it’s worth reading. If you don’t, I understand. It’s not your average...

Are we trashy?
Me: http://www.cracked.com/blog/4-bizarrely-specific-stereotypes-you-cant-help-but-notice/
Me: Whoa, Dan O'Brien. Watch yourself on #2.
Jack: The awards show one?
Me: No, the cousins one.
Jack: Ha, right. True? Who am I to say?
Me: I mean, for rednecks, I guess. But for our family?
Jack: Generally when I hang with my cousins I get really wasted.
Me: Yeah but we're not trashy.
Jack: But we're not exactly NOT white trash.
Me: We're not boating out in the Hamptons every fucking weekend, no. We're not the Kennedys.
Jack: The Kennedys- white trash. Sorry.
Me: HAHA I was just going to say, "And we're also not trashy...like the Kennedys." They're a brilliant blend of both.
Jack: You can sail a boat and own a compound but that doesn't make you not white trash.
Me: Well I took offense to the article. Is it trashy that FOUR of us cousins went to the same college? I don't think so. At least we went to college. So we ain't trashy.
Jack: Maybe we're trashy like the Kennedys? My mom's side of the family does have three houses on a body of water.
Me: I guess the Kerins are trashy then. Not the Morrisons, we still have to RENT houses on the water.
Jack: Yeah so the Kerins are trash. My Grandma saves fucking yogurt containers for drinking cups for god's sake. I guess when the matriarch is drinking wine out of a Yoplait container it's settled.

Oh girl,
it’s like this: inside us we haven’t loved just some one
in the future, but a fermenting tribe; not just one
child, but fathers, cradled inside us like ruins
of mountains, the dry riverbed
of former mothers, yes, and all that
soundless landscape under its clouded
or clear destiny—girl, all this came before you
-Rainer Maria Rilke

Elizabeth Warren on Ron Paul and taking money out of government: “The problem is, we will have no future. But think about this! No one is going to build bridges on their own. No one is going to build roads, no one is going to build public education, public universities, public schools. No one is going to invest in the kind of basic research that flings off thousands of things that private industry...

I need help. How do I make it stop?
Every morning the new person at work bombards me with a million questions and “HOW ARE YOU!!!! GOOD MORNING!!!!!!” There’s nothing wrong with being nice, don’t get me wrong, but I need about 15 minutes to get settled into my work day. Check my email, shake off the subway ride, get my Barry’s tea going…I have a method, new girl, and you need to calm it down.
