Yes the pose is cheesy AF, but she looks good. I dont know how to word it without sounding creepy, but she looks physically capable, like she has a strong body, my only negative is those heels, she would still look stereotypical 'sexy hot badass' (to please those who only care about if she looks hot and carries the right name), if her boots were flat or even combat style.

Hahahaha, that made choke on the juice I was drinking. Can you imagine? I dont want Dig/Dinah at all........but I would adore sitting back and seeing the fallout that would cause.

I think stuff like this stings sometimes more, because it just unthinking, casual sexism. It wasnt that nasty, reddit stuff that is just out right misogyny, its just that he genuinely didnt even see or count Sara, because she doesnt have a dick. Its just so ingrained in some people (and society) that it is just how people act naturally. -
My daughter only just got a phone, for her 11th birthday, and has a lot of supervision using the internet. But she got in an argument at school a couple years ago, when she still believed, with a girl that was from a religion that didnt celebrate Christmas, the girl told her whole year that it was all fake and that their parents were liars going to hell. I had already told my daughter that magic was specific to the family that celebrated, so she just thought the girl didnt realise that her family had some sort of magical covenant that was different from ours- hers didnt include Santa while ours did.

We just had the Santa/easter bunny/tooth fairy talk last year, she flat out asked me, and I was super nervous because I had done things like have the tooth fairy leave her a charm bracelet and a 'wish' that was a charm to add each tooth, and she argued with other children that she knew Santa was real because her Mum couldnt buy two sets of presents (santa would fill a stocking, Mum put hers under the tree) I was worried that she would think I had been lying to her, and be upset, but she was really gratefull for everything I had done. She laughed about me chewing on the end of carrots to look like they had been nibbled bu reindeer. But when she asked what I had done with her teeth and I answered that I had kept them all in a little box in my bedroom, she looked at me like pure "WTF", and repeated it slowly; "You.............kept....my.....teeth...........and you have them in a box in your room?" and I realised that it was a bit odd, because what on earth would I ever do with them? But now I have a whole heap in a box, and it feels weird to keep them, but also weird to but them in the bin. Maybe I will go up to the headland and throw them off the cliff into the ocean.

I have an odd question. What did/are people doing with baby teeth? I have collected my daughters, because I couldnt just throw them out, but it feels odd. I keep them in a lovely little box up on a shelf in my bedroom, but it feels off opening it up to see a bunch of teeth. What does every one else, or their parents do?

My daughter is in 6th grade, and yes, there are no super hero backpacks at her school, but we do live in a coastal beach town, so the kids are all into 'cool' surfy stuff. I guess if you lived in a town that had masked heros, that might be cool? But the whole 'bad man' scene, that does not remotely seem age appropriate, pretty cringey. I kinda felt that Samantha went out the same way she came in. I have never been able to see her as a charcacter, she was a walking plot prompt, her actions as a single mother made no sense to me (as an actual single mother). I always felt like she was written from the view point of how a older white male would see a single mother, like they didnt even try to consider how someone in her position might think.

They might not admit it, but I think the crux of some peoples position is that they have never really wanted a Green Arrow/Arrow show, they either wanted a BC centric show or a joint lead GA/BC, and thats purely 'because comics'. The problem is they miscast the BC role from day one, and were stuck with a character that just didnt fit with the rest of the cast/characters, oh and you know- the show was focused on Oliver anyway and was never going to be the BC centric show they even wanted. But they do have a point, they should have either left Laurel in the background, or not replaced/pushed her character or replacement, because the role of BC in Arrow is like a sore that has been picked at, its a nasty mess. -
That sneak peak really is at another level isn’t it? She has such issues with the physical movements, she moves her head and body like she has a neck or back injury, she is so very stiff. First we had that awkward drunken saunter, now this quasi menacing stiffness, both she doesn’t manage to pull off and just look odd. What went wrong? She wasn’t a stand out as Ruby, but she was ten time better than anything I have seen from her on Arrow.

Destiel, its pretty huge right? They have a ton of fanfiction, and I have noticed a lot of my mutuals will post stuff from time to time.

From what I can see that ‘other’ group of fans (well the bad apples anyway) the reaction to marriage spoilers is just more, “blah blah blah, Felicity is abusive” “Blah blah blah, Olicity is the most toxic, abusive relationship in the whole flarrowverse”, with a fair bit of, “ha ha ha, sucked in olishitty it’s a crap wedding are you triggered”. Sigh, so pretty much a little bit more active, but business as usual. I find it funny sometimes how fans like that totally miss the irony of themselves. Do kinda wish it wasn’t a double wedding, I didn’t even like that in Pride and Prejudice, but I am so eager to get to all that married goodness, that I can’t bring myself to be overly bothered. I am on season 5 of Supernatural and I can see where they got their reputation for gay bait, as Destiel is something they obviously play up. Isnt it a huge fandom anyway?

We still get the Coles specials @Mellowyellow, but everything else is slightly more expensive than other places, and things get more expensive Fri, Sat, Sun. Like butternut pumpkin will be 99c per kilo on Thursday, but the exact same pile of them will be $4 per kilo on Friday and the weekend. Happens during school holidays too. I haven't been to an Aldi's in years, but I notice in junk mail that stuff like their English spinach and butter/cheese etc are quite a bit cheaper than what I pay. We don't eat much packaged stuff so I would like to just buy the staples there if it wasn't a busy 30 min drive away. I LOVE lavender flavored things. I once worked at a 'fashion cafe' and the designer was releasing a perfume, and to celebrate we all got bottles and a box of chocolates that were flavored with traditional scents- like lavender, rose, Sandalwood (which was yuk). The Rose and lavender were really nice, and I have loved both ever since. I mean Rose flavored Turkish delight is the best thing ever.

I am so jealous, we don't have costco here on the Sunny Coast, I don't even have an Aldi close, just a small Coles with beachside prices and a larger (but still smaller than average) Woolies. We have lizards in the house. No pantry moths, but I do keep everything sealed in containers or snap lock bags, and lots of stuff gets kept in the fridge because here in the tropics stuff like bread can get mouldy overnight the first day you bring it home. i have heard the best way to get rid of a pantry moth investation is to put one drop of pennyroyal essential oil in a bucket of water and wipe down all surfaces. But it's not recommended for pregnant woman. Apparently cardboard is something that can attract/keep them around. They also don't like strong peppermint smells, so making a super strong peppermint tea and wiping the shelves down can help get rid of them.

The first tests I took for this a couple years ago, I kept getting INTJ, and it just didn't fit me. But I just took this one and got INFP, and it's pretty spot on (and oddly compliments my star sign too) It seems like a good site. -

It's even worse when you look at the Laurel Lance/Oliver Queen tag, then scroll through and discount the ones that end Olicity. There is maybe 100 legit decent Lauriver fics. Maybe it's different on FF.net? This is where I feel sorry for her nice fans, the ones that stay in their lane, and just like the character and the pairing. Because there isn't a decent pool of fics and the tumblr tag for her is a mess. I guess they just have to find like minded people and form a group away from the main tags?
