If a woman in Virginia has a miscarriage without a doctor present, they must report it within 24 hours to the police or risk going to jail for a full year. At least, that’s what would have happened if a bill introduced by Virginia state Sen. Mark Obenshain (R) had become law. And yet, the […]

*sigh*

Somewhere between 10% and 25% of pregnancies end in miscarriage. 1 in 4 people who can get pregnant will experience a miscarriage. A miscarriage is a completely normal, natural process that happens surprisingly frequently. Why on earth should it be reported to law enforcement, and how on earth does this not constitute gross government overreach into people’s private lives?

I find it really obnoxious that you don’t understand what being poor means but I can explain.

A) In a world with 5 kids, it is IMPERATIVE that you have a cell phone and one with good coverage, other wise you risk not being able to dial 911 in a back ally (there are dead zones in cities do not think otherwise) or being able to receive a call that your kid has been hurt in school/daycare etc. So if you have a phone, especially if you’re making frequent calls its best to go with a popular provider. Fiona has an iPhone because you can get one for FREE with a 2 year subscription to ATT.

B) Debbie’s converse most likely were purchased at a thrift store. My gram raised me and my four cousins (just like Fiona did) and she did it with only one working person in the family. I got ALL my clothes from thrift stores. I wore Aeropostale, I wore American Eagle, I just got them for 1$ a shirt, reused.

Being poor does not mean not having “first world” items, it means even when you take every single bargain deal that you still struggle to make ends meet.

My nephew ALWAYS had the new game consoles and the iphones and MP3 players… because he’d trade in and sell his old tech to buy the new. He’d make deals with other friends who had the next-to-newest stuff, and trade up along the ladder until he got the new stuff with minimal investment. He’d buy refurbished and second hand.

Poor people can have cool shit, it just might not be in the best shape unless they take care of it.

Put the costume, wig, and makeup on all together for the first time! I think next time i’ll use more blush, but for the most part i’m happy with it. I didn’t do much, it’s just foundation and a bit of bronze eyeliner - I wanted to keep it as natural looking as possible! 

I shall venture outside and get some ~real~ (non mirror) shots of this on Saturday! I’m really excited. 

You can see the full dress here, and see more shots of the wig here.

holy crap

Three adults (two are EoU students) and one child are seeking a 3+ bedroom rental in La Grande, OR with preference given to a location nearer the campus. Our intended rental budget is up to about $700 a month. House, duplex, or apartment are ok, however we would prefer a place with a yard, as we would very much like a vegetable garden, and the child needs somewhere safe to play outside.

If you have a 3+ bedroom property in La Grande, OR for rent, you are welcome to contact me! Just send me an ask, or a mail. I can provide further contact information after initial contact.

Please include the following information:
-Address of the property
-if you have any photos of it available
-Cost of deposit + if this deposit is non-refundable
-Monthly rent quote
-If utilities are included in the rent, please note so.
-If pets are OK, and if they cost an additional pet deposit (we currently have no pets).
-Your application - do we need to pick up a copy in person?
-If you are willing to show us the property on a weekend (due to work at the moment, we can only visit La Grande on Saturdays and Sundays).

I mean, we’re Tumblr, shipping weird things is what we do, right?

i am reminded that english is a flawed language every time I am forced to use “that that” in a sentence

I always thought that that was like, grammatically incorrect or something cause spell checker would always flip out about the second that.

I always thought that ‘that that’ was something that could make a sentence turn very repetitive, and that that would be a fun way to spend an afternoon with friends.

I thought it was kinda eh for a worgen but then before I was about to move on… Blood elf.. what?

Sokka with his hair down.

Wow. I go through all of Avatar: the Last Airbender thinking: “Well, Sokka’s a nice guy and all… kind of a dork, falls in love easily… he’s a great character, but…”

Sokka was never… hot.

ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS TAKE HIS HAIR OUT OF THAT STUPID LITTLE PONYTAIL.

I mean seriously. It’s always the pony tails that hold them back.

Zuko gets emo hair and suddenly he has fangirls. Whatevs, people.

But Sokka… really?

ahem, it’s a

Warrior’s Wolf Tail

^^ It lets all the other warriors know he’s fun and perky

I guess the Take Down Ponytail and/or Take off Glasses thing works for dudes too. Because yea Sokka is a total fox. Er, wolf.

I don’t know if this player should be watched or not, but he tried to force himself on one of my alts early this morning. He’s a level 90 Draenai Monk, goes by the name Jianhung.

Just an alert to anyone in Stormwind, RPing.

Name sounds…

He spoke with me once when I was out questing on a lowbie female alt. We had an OOC conversation that was basically him going on about wanting to make my character his character’s pet.

It was the middle of the night and I was bored as Hell, so I humored him and traveled back to Stormwind for RP, just to see what he was up to. Sometimes these random-assed people are actually amazing writers and all that, you know?

AHHAHHAHAHAHAH AH AH HA HA HAAAA

No. Wasted my time.

F double-minus, would not RP with again. It was as if the moment we transitioned from OOC to IC he left the majority of his braincells and creativity behind. He was, simply put, not a good RPer and he didn’t take my OOC input or questions to heart or even seemed to pay attention to what his RP partner wants.

I’m sorry, but if you want to ERP with someone you need to be on even ground with them, and, if they’re a stranger, you need to keep up an OOC line of communication to ensure everything’s running smoothly.While in our OOC conversations it sounded like his character wanted to approach mine and seduce her, the actual RP was a rather lackluster and very rapey feeling situation that I shut down before it went too far.

tl;dr: Not a good writer, and doesn’t seem to understand the idea of consent OOC and IC.

Mix the cereal, Nutella, peanut butter, and jelly together, then put it on a slice of lunch meat and fold it into a burrito shape and sob brokenly while you eat it.

There have been countless times, I recall, from defending a point in anywhere from the offensives in the Arathi Basin to the skirmishes over Tol Barad, where myself and Drove were the only ones in any location. I won’t go as far as to say we could, as a pair, take on the entire force of the Alliance, but you know what we could do?

We could hold them off until re-enforcement arrived to us. She would watch my back, I would watch hers. After so many battles back when I was still enlisted, without even saying a word we could act, and react, almost seamlessly together. So many times back up arrived, anticipating us both dead or maimed, only to find us still fighting. 

In order to truly harm one of us, you had to get through the other. 

I assure you, that was no easy task. 

The priestess smiles a little, fondly. 

From my understanding she remains enlisted, but it has been some time since we fought alongside one another. The conflicts and our priorities take us in different directions, I’m afraid. 

*whispers* this is my favorite one.
