A Surprise Pride and Prejudice Engagement
(Note: This isn’t me)
See? This is a tailor-made proposal. Not some “big screen of basketball game nonsense. This person took into account his girlfriend’s pastimes and favourite things in the world, knew how close to the family she was and engineered the perfect engagement proposal, without a doubt managing to make sure this would please her (surely her mother and sisters would know).
This is how you do big gestures.
This is so awesome I can’t even.
Also, the look on her face as she came into the house. Hehehehehehe!
STILL THE MOST ADORABLE THING EVER
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
writing adult emails is awful
its like
hi [name of person],
this formatting is making me uncomfortable but I have to tell you something / ask you something that is vital to my career as a student.
I re-read and edited that sentence for an hour, but you’ll probably just glance over it for half a second.
thanks!
- [name]

-professor
I have a stock format and structure I use.
Dear Person I am Writing To:
This is an optional sentence introducing who I am and work for, included if the addressee has never corresponded with me before. The second optional sentence reminds the person where we met, if relevant. This sentence states the purpose of the email.
This optional paragraph describes in more detail what’s needed. This sentence discusses relevant information like how soon an answer is needed, what kind of an answer is needed, and any information that the other person might find useful. If there’s a lot of information, it’s a good idea to separate this paragraph into two or three paragraphs to avoid having a Wall of Text.
If a description paragraph was used, close with a restatement of the initial request, in case the addressee ignored the opening paragraph.
This sentence is just a platitude (usually thanking them for their time) because people think I’m standoffish, unreasonably demanding, or cold if it’s not included.
Closing salutation,
Signature.
People always ask me how I can fire off work emails so quickly. Nobody has figured out yet that it’s the same email with the details changed as needed.

These stunning photos capture just how exhausting micro aggressions can be
Paula Akpan and Harriet Evans have launched the “I’m Tired” project to highlight the impact common microaggressions and stereotypes many face on a daily basis. By symbolically and literally carrying the aggressions on their backs, Apkan and Evans hope to help both the subjects and everyone else.
See how a group of Swedish police officers responded when a fight broke out on the New York subway.
Four Swedish police officers’ New York vacation was interrupted when a fight broke out on the subway. The train operator called for support, and — being cops and all — they dutifully stepped in to help until local authorities arrived.
The visiting cops had to subdue the two men involved in the fight, which no doubt takes skill to do safely. But it’s how they did their job after they gained control that really impressed people.
Watch the full video here.
AND THEY DID IT UNARMED.
Say it louder for those in the back to hear. Calmly and unarmed.
Cops who help people, calmly disable a situation and restore public order rather than flex their authority, escalate the situation leading to a shit storm? Interesting….

okay but
fuck your stereotypes
long hair is not “girly”
the same way short hair is not “manly”
hair has no gender
hair is just hair
&as long as you’re not disrespecting a culture with the way you do it
you keep on doing you
Its like someone looked into my brain and decided to make a photo set based on men I would find so overwhelmingly attractive I couldn’t look directly at them if I met them in person

tips for college freshmen
- Whatever your high school teachers have told you about college is probably incorrect.
- You will get sick in the first couple of weeks because your body has never had to live with 400 other people and deal with all their germs. Always have tissues and chapstick on hand (especially in your backpack)
- Save the syllabus the teacher gives you on the first day. It will have all important due dates and criteria in it
- Don’t buy the book until you know you need it. Textbooks are hella expensive and I only used about a third of the ones I bought my freshmen year (be careful though cause the bookstore can run out)
- Check amazon & other sites for competitive textbook prices
- If you’re lost, ask someone for directions. They won’t care, especially if it’s the first few weeks
- Talk to your teachers. Sit in the front row. It’s almost always a good thing if the teacher knows who you are. Make connections with the ones that stand out to you because you will need them in the future (i.e. grad applications or other recommendations)
- When given an assignment, read it and do what it is asking. Don’t do more. Just do what they ask you to do. (this one is coming from my mom who teaches freshmen and every year someone tries to go above and beyond but ends up not answering the original question)
- STAIN STICK/ TIDE TO-GO IS A NECESSITY
- 8am classes suck. Don’t take a class that early unless you have to. You will regret it.
- Try to schedule your classes back to back but don’t forget to factor in some time to eat
- Get a planner or calendar of some kind so that you can see just how much time you have to write that paper
- Freshmen always travel in packs. That’s how we know you’re a freshman. If you don’t want to get moo’d at (because you move like cattle), don’t travel in a huge pack of people
- You don’t have to be best friends with your roommate. You may not even get along. But you do have to live together. Be patient. Talk to them. C.o.m.m.u.n.i.c.a.t.e.
- Don’t be afraid to eat alone.
- Separate your darks from your lights when doing laundry and never never never wash anything in hot water unless you want it to shrink and wrinkle.
- Unless you’re in a science course you probably won’t have to bring the book to class. You may never even open the book. See tip #2
- Go to a frat party at least once (if your school has frats). You might love it; you’ll probably hate it. Either way it will definitely be an experience.
- Don’t drink jungle juice unless you saw the person make it. Never accept an opened can of beer. Keep track of your cup. Roofies are real and very dangerous. Always have a friend to walk home with.
- Say hi. Just say hello to people. It’s so easy to make friends in the beginning because everyone else is just as scared and new as you are
College is a blast. Best four years of your life and it flies by compared to high school. Have fun. Be safe. Make good choices!
Dealoz.com shows you how much a book costs or sells for on almost every site. Amazing website for finding the lowest priced book because sometimed one is cheaper of chegg while another is cheaper on amazon (also shows shipping prices so you can factor that in)
And renting books is a really great idea when you can
I am so ecstatic about this commercial!
Not only is there an interracial couple, which is fucking great as heck, but she’s black. And not like light skinned with straight, long hair. No. She’s dark with natural hair. This is very important. First of all, let me say I’m happy that interracial is not just represented by a black guy and a white girl, but it’s the other way around. Black girls do not get enough love, especially from white guys. We’re always “pretty for a black girl” and never just pretty. And look at her father being supportive of this! He’s tryna make shit happen, but he’s also like “not too much shit”. And it’s her father, of all things. Stereotype shot in the face.
Dark girls! Natural hair! Supportive parents! Interracial couple! Present father! White male and black female!
When car commercials do a better job than all of society.
THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE

Unpopular opinion: I’m sick of having to swallow a gratuitous dose of extra-gory violence with my supposedly “progressive” “feminist” media.
Yup, this is about Mad Max.
Look, violence and destruction are intrinsic parts of tearing down systems of oppression. I get that. And I’m glad that we have media showing that destroying systems of oppression is painful and messy and, yes, violent. I’m glad we have media showing women taking power using whatever means necessary.
I’m also glad that we have media depicting toxic masculinity and the damage that patriarchy inflicts upon men. One could argue that the depiction of extreme violence is necessary for conveying that message, too.
But there’s a line. On one side of the line, we have violence that serves a narrative purpose, necessary violence, violence that is mourned, violence that is condemned.
On the other side, we have two straight hours of guns and gore.
Excessive violence in media is not feminist, no matter who’s doing the punching. I get that movies about violent women are cool and empowering in comparison to movies about violent men. And I get that movies about violent men can be used to critique toxic masculinity. But at the end of the day, we’re still being socialized by and desensitized to excessively violent media. Films with gratuitous gore desensitize their audiences to violence. They socialize us into seeing violence as a legitimate way to gain and maintain power. And guess who’s going to suffer from that in the real world? Powerless groups. Marginalized groups. Women.
C’mon, people, can’t we create truly empowering media that depicts the destruction of systems of oppression without sensationalizing and celebrating the violence involved?
