i wish people would stop romanticizing not eating breakfast and not getting enough sleep and being dependent on coffee to function and always being in a bad mood and treating yourself poorly because that behavior is very unhealthy for you
especially amongst students it seems to be a competition on who had the least amount of sleep or ate the least or didnt do their work. stop it!!! go to bed and eat breakfast!!!! seriously it isnt cute please be nice to yourself
What a boss

Allow me to say I’ll stand beside you. Against Corypheus, my countrymen, or spurious rumour. So long as you’ll have me.

Tormenting children is the design, not the flaw. Secretary Nielson will go down in history as true evil. She was warned of the risks to children and sadistically kept the same plan.
Why is it we can’t seem to bring ourselves to call them concentration camps? That’s what they are. And why can’t we call them child refugees? Again, that’s what they are. We just murdered a child refugee in one of our concentration camps.
The willful neglect of children is abuse. Ordering the willful neglect of children - for any reason - is a crime against our humanity.

Oh fuck....
I’m getting an abortion.
I’m approximately 18 weeks pregnant, so.
This is going to require I go to Seattle and stay overnight for a D&E.
I don’t have medicaid, and have no way to apply for it before hand, as I have no proof of residency in the state of Washington, since I just moved here 3 months ago, and have no bills in my name.
This means I will probably have to pay out of pocket for a hotel stay, and whatever my parents insurance won’t cover. (I’m not sure if they’ll cover anything, but I’m going to try and bill through them to buy some time.)
So, I need the funds to cover an overnight hospital stay in Seattle, all of the medical care I’ve received from the obgyn here in BH, and the abortion in Seattle.
I’m not going to estimate those costs, off the top of my head other than the hotel stay.
The overnight hotel stay alone will probably cost me a minimum of $100. They require I stay in a hotel within 30 minutes of the clinic in case something goes wrong during the overnight dilation, so that price may vary. I’ll be calling them tomorrow, after I take some more time to, be able to say this stuff aloud without. Crying.
I’d appreciate any help you can give at this time, and I’ll update this post with a cost estimate once I get one.

I can’t actually even process how bad this is. I logged of for the 17th and came back to find out 6 porn bots had followed me while I was logged out
The Sims ended up with same-sex relationship support thanks almost entirely to gay programmer Patrick J. Barrett III.
“At the time, it wasn’t considered ‘normal’ to be gay or lesbian,” [Barrett] said. “Some even saw it as dangerous. But in The Sims it was normal and safe to be a gay person. It was the first time we could play a game and be free to see ourselves represented within. It was a magical moment when my first same-sex Sims coupled kissed. I still sometimes wonder how in the world I got away with it.”

honestly this is why Assassins Creed cosplayers are my favourite cosplayers because you’re never sure when one of them is gonna just bust out the parkour but you know at least one of them in a group can do it.
Are you sure they are not Actual Assassins?
modern day Assassins dress as historical assassin to blend in a crowd of cosplayers and #remain_undetected
none of the people even turned when he did that, too, so I’m convinced we’re either living in a simulation or that was an actual assassin
OH MY GOD whyyyy did no one tell me you’re supposed to send thank-yous after interviews?? Why would I do that???
“Thank you for this incredibly stressful 30 minutes that I have had to re-structure my entire day around and which will give me anxiety poos for the next 24 hours.”
I HATE ETIQUETTE IT’S THE MOST IMPOSSIBLE THING FOR ME TO LEARN WITHOUT SOMEONE DIRECTLY TELLING ME THIS SHIT
NO ONE TOLD YOU???? WTF! I HAVE FAILED YOU. Also: Dear ______: Thank you so much for the opportunity to sit down with you (&________) to discuss the [insert job position]. I am grateful to be considered for the position. I think I will be a great fit at [company name], especially given my experience in __________. [insert possible reference to something you talked about, something that excited you.] I look forward to hearing from you [and if you are feeling super confident: and working together in the future]. Sincerely, @mellivorinae
THIS IS A LIFESAVING TEMPLATE
YOU ARE WELCOME
My brother got a really great paid internship one summer. The guy who hired him said the deciding factor was the professional thank you letter my brother sent after the interview.
should it be an email? or like a physical letter?
email, you want to send it within a few hours at max after the interview if you can so it’s fresh in their mind who you are.
Confirmed! I interviewed for a job right after arriving in NY. The interview went incredibly well, and I went home and immediately wrote a thank you letter and put it in the mail. I had a super good feeling about this interview.
I didn’t get the job.
However, a few weeks later, I was called in to interview with another editor in the same company, and I did get that job. I found out later from the initial editor (the one who didn’t hire me) that he had planned to offer me the job, but since I didn’t follow up with a thank you letter, he assumed I didn’t really want it. He offered the job to another contender–but when he got my letter in the mail shortly after the offer had already been made, he went to HR and gave me a glowing recommendation. It was based on that recommendation that I got called in for the second interview.
So: send an email thank you immediately (same day!) after the interview. If you’re feeling extra, go ahead and send a written one too. OR go immediately to a coffee shop, write the letter, and return to the office and give it to the secretary.
Either way, those letters are important.
Pro tip: If you really want HR to develop a personal interest in your application, publicly thank them on linkedin. Just make a short post telling your network about how X recruiter really went above and beyond to make you feel welcome, or about how be accommodating and professional they were, or whatever. Make sure to use the mention feature so they’ll get a notification and see it.
Flattery will get you everywhere… and public flattery that might make its way back to their manager, doubly so.
Obligatory plug for one of FreePrintable.net’s sites: ThankYouLetter.ws. They have a whole section with interview thank you letter templates, and a page with specific tips for interview thank you letters. (There are also tons of other letter templates if you browse around a bit.)
As a former professional recruiter and recruiting manager, I confirm, especially for entry-level positions, where you are competing with oodles of people. This little thing can make a difference. Also the fact that, maybe, you took time to google the “interview etiquette”.
SIGNAL BOOST
The post-interview thank you notes can be a good way to recover in case you got asked a question whose answer you either didn’t know or felt was super weak. So if you follow the above given template, jump in with something like “upon further thought to your question, here’s my revised answer.”
But yeah always send a thank you note after an interview. It’s a small thing but it makes a hell of a difference. And def send thank you messages to any recruiters who may have helped. And also after you get the job. Small things like that really go a long long way.
Long read but very important stuff

A growing number of shoppers will be supporting their independent neighborhood bookstores on Small Business Saturday
Dane Neller, the owner of Shakespeare & Co. in New York City, just opened his third indie bookstore, and he’s proving the naysayers wrong.
“Bookstores are back and they’re back in a big way,” he said. “I’m not giving to to hyperbole – it was record-breaking for us.”
The Manhattan sanctuary is part of a resurgence of independent bookstores nationwide. Customers who visit the story can stumble upon a new author or linger over a latte while a special machine can print a book in three minutes if it’s not in stock.
The rebound comes after years of competition from deep discount superstores and online behemoth Amazon, which together turned small shops into an endangered species.
According to the American Booksellers Association, the number of independent bookstores fell by approximately 40 percent between the mid-90s and 2009. They have recovered some of those closures, and this year, sales are up more than five percent over a year ago.
The localism movement has been a driving force. Customers are increasingly spending in their neighborhood stores.
“I’m not trying to compete with online retailers. I’m trying to compete on what I do best,” said Oren Teicher, the CEO of the American Booksellers Association. “When you come into a store like this and you don’t know what you want and you browse these shelves, you’re gonna find books that you didn’t know existed. If you are … engaged in your community, curating your content, having people work the store that are knowledgeable and passionate about books, there absolutely is a formula for success,” Teicher said.
That specialized service, combined with a sense of community, is putting the indie bookstore back on consumers’ holiday shopping list.
UM EXCUSE YOU BIOWARE HOW DARE. YOU COME INTO MY HOME. YOU DRAG ME OUT BY MY HAIR. YOU MAKE ME LOOK AT THIS, MY GREATEST UNREQUITED LOVE, AND THEN YOU SING ABOUT IT??????
I will always support girls who figure out that they’re lesbians after thinking they were bisexual and girls who figure out that they’re bisexual after thinking they were lesbians. It can be really hard to determine whether what you are feeling is compulsory heterosexuality or genuine attraction, and we should always show a girl love and support when she tries to figure that out and when she does figure it out.
Always. ❤ And same goes to our male friends! Love and support all around.
!!!!!!!!! BREAKING NEWS !!!!!!!!!!
The Tennessee Supreme Court ruled former sex slave Cyntoia Brown MUST serve 51 years in prison before she is eligible for parole.
According to them:
“In today’s unanimous decision, the Tennessee Supreme Court explained that, under state law, a life sentence is a determinate sentence of 60 years,” the court wrote. “However, the sixty-year sentence can be reduced by up to 15 percent, or 9 years, by earning various sentence credits (good behavior. & getting involved in prison based education programs while incarcerated) Therefore, the Supreme Court concluded that a defendant serving a life sentence for a first-degree murder committed on or after July 1, 1995, may be eligible for release after serving at least 51 years of the sentence.“
For those of you who haven’t yet caught up to this story:
Cyntoia Brown was a 16 yr old girl, who at the time of the incident was living in a room at a Nashville InTown Suites with Allen (the man who propositioned her for sex) because her pimp and boyfriend Garion McGlothen, nick-named “Kut Throat,” insisted that she needed to earn money.
Kut Throat abused her physically and sexually throughout the approximately three week period in which she lived with him.
After Allen took her to his house, he showed Cyntoia multiple guns, including shotguns and rifles. Later in bed, as she described in court, he grabbed her violently by the genitals, his demeanor became threatening and, fearing for her life, she took a gun out of her purse and shot him.
