Not sure you can tell under all the Parmesan and lemon zest but I made a delightful chicken sausage and ravioli meal tonight. #hellofresh #chickensausage #dinnertonight #yum (at Seguin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjjQCLmMQLk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
A girl’s natural habitat is in a bed with many blankets and pillows and it’s inhumane to remove her from her natural habitat
Let me tell you a fucking thing about costume design. That’s some in depth, difficult shit to learn. And the fact that this goddess can ramble this shit off the cuff means she knows her shit. ELLE WOODS IS A GODAMNED GENIUS AND IT’s NOT A STRETCH TO BELIEVE SHE GOT INTO HARVARD LAW MMMK?
FUCK YEAH ELLE WOODS OR DIE
this movie is literally about an attractive woman who loves to party having to prove over and over again that she’s also intelligent and hard-working to those who judge her based on her looks (who also empowers and fights for other women, and fosters unlikely friendships instead of engaging in girl hate) and if you don’t think that’s some great feminist shit then I don’t know what your problem is
Let’s not forget that in the end when the guy wants her again, she turns him down because she knows she deserves better.
Thing is though, she’s not just showing that she’s generally smart.
She’s also showing that she can:
Pick up on it when somebody is trying to lie to her.
Talk them into revealing the holes in their story.
Remember key pieces of evidence that support her point (she says that she saw it a year ago— I bet she could cite the exact issue if needed).
Leverage the ‘dumb blonde girl’ stereotype to make people underestimate her.
In other words, all of the qualities that go on to make her such a good lawyer.
In fact, this scene mirrors exactly how she ends up winning her final case: she acts dumb so that the witness lets her guard down, fixates on seemingly trivial details (“you were in the shower?” “How many perms have you had?”) and then pulls out some extremely specialised knowledge (“ammonium thioglycolate”) that proves the witness has been lying all along.
This scene is arguably one of the most important in the film, because it’s the scene that makes all the rest of the film— Elle succeeding at Harvard as well as she does, and becoming such a good lawyer in such a short time (“like it’s hard?”)— make sense.
It’s not just that Elle is intelligent. That on its own wouldn’t be enough to explain her huge success. It’s that she already has the specific talents she needs to become a good lawyer, even before she decides to become one. She was just using them in a different area, so they didn’t get picked up on.

The madden gif maker has banned the use of the word “capitalism”.
“Too many people were using our videogame football gif maker to make communist propaganda. We need to put a stop to that.”
This post just got extremely funny
I want to clarify:
The original post: Funny on its own.
This post seeing a resurgence due to a copycat post made in response to the iOS kerfuffle: Very funny.
John Madden dying within days of said resurgence: A bit morbid, but hilarious in simply the coincidence of it.
Senator Harry Reid dying within hours of Coach Madden’s death: Absolutely hilarious.
Still waiting on the queen of england.

This is the puppy that I found on the side of the road on Christmas Eve. After a week of posts on social media, scanning for a chip, and calling local shelters/vets, I have found myself with a third dog. While not an unexpected outcome, it may be one of my most absurd decisions yet. His name is Rhodes. #newpuppy #crazydoglady #dogsofinstagram #hescutetho (at Seguin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYPpbwiFXgS/?utm_medium=tumblr

I hope im not just a blog you follow but also the only person with 100% correct opinions about the little mermaid
Dish those opinions, let's hear it
My biggest issue is the absolute ice cold take of "Ariel gave up her life/voice for a boy" when the film repeatedly shows Ariel was preyed upon by Ursula. She was exploited and stalked by the literal antagonist of the film into making a really bad decision, especially when Ursula knew Ariel was at her most emotional and the least unable to reach out to her support network.
And the deal Ariel made was meant to be an impossible task that she was tricked into taking AND STILL Ariel was smart enough to almost achieve it if Ursula wasn't playing dirty and directly interfering in with it all.
Ariel was absolutely a victim of manipulation and circumstance, and people who use this as an irredeemable flaw in her character act like they got big brain energy when their brains are smooth as fuck.
(not to mention she was 16)
Also?
URSULA is the one who says Ariel’s doing it all for the guy.
According to Ariel herself, what she wants is:
—to be where the people are
—to see dancing and walking
—to ask her questions about the human world and get answers
—to not live in the ocean
—to be part of the human world
—to explore the human world
WHERE DOES ERIC COME INTO ANY OF THIS?!
She wants to see a world she isn’t able to see! She wants to have adventures, not a boyfriend! What the hell!
I would argue that she was totally fine with the boyfriend, but Ursula was the one who forced it to be a priority.
AND ANOTHER THING
Her first impression of him is a dude who is both attractive, capable, and willing to jump back on to a burning ship to save his dog.
Later, dude climbs aboard a SHIPWRECK that's caught in a WHIRLPOOL so that he can RAM IT into a 150-foot-tall MAGIC SEA MONSTER in order to save her.
It's not like girl was settling.
Ariel is a field anthropologist. That she happened to fall in love with a member of the culture she was studying isn't exactly a problem.

New Year’s Day makes a hangover sound so romantic
i'm not even joking how to train your dragon is in my opinion one of the best films ever made in terms of its themes and the messages it wants you to take away from it alone. but it doesn't stop there. it ALSO has an incredible score, compelling characters, and beautifully designed and animated dragons. what more could you possibly ask for.
Look, I’m really good at this one thing and I’m missing spontaneous dinners with friends since the move. (at Seguin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXhiDfol4o5/?utm_medium=tumblr
