because it helps to remember this every now and then.
Also did anybody else notice that they removed the “Elton John’s AIDS foundation” logo from Miley’s picture? Fuckin’ agendas everywhere….
I literally threw a mini fit
The fact that they even touched up the woman in the BACKGROUND of the Selena Gomez pic is crazy.
I’ve said this every time it comes on my dash but please also notice that a lot of the women get photoshopped lighter.
And that´s the reason why nobody should try to be that thin, because that thin doesn´t exist in reality.
THIS IS SO SATISFYING TO LOOK AT I LITERALLY STARED AT THIS FOR LIKE 12 MINUTEs
there’s so much racism here with how they change rihanna’s nose
It’s so important for people, especially teenage girls, to remember that even the allegedly candid pictures like these are being altered drastically, which means it’s ridiculous to compare yourself to pictures of women who have not only paid thousands of dollars to look the way they do, but they don’t even look like that in real life!
*sees friend on my dash* oh my god . that person right there….thats my friend. My Friend made a post. its a good post i love it. i love you. i would die for you
you know when you read a piece of writing so effortless, so graceful and unpretentious that you are both a) thrilled to the point that you have to put it down and walk in a quick circle to make it last longer but also b) PHYSICALLY INCAPACITATED with snarling jealousy and rage
My professor talked about how women aren’t used to asking for things in the work place, such as raises, because we’re conditioned to downplay our achievements and hold off on asserting our value. She discussed how, even now at this stage in her career (a published doctrate), she shakes when she askes to be considered for a raise and about the first time she was really successful at getting one. After class I asked her what she asked her boss and she winked at me, took me to her office, and asked me to take notes.
She said she practiced this technique like 5 times in her office before she requested a meeting with her boss. I’m gonna share it with you guys because I really loved it.
You start off by thanking your employer for their support (whatever that means in the context of your work environment).
You then say that you would like to take some time to discuss next year’s salary.
You say, allow me to refresh your memory regarding some of my accomplishments or contributions from the past year, and you present a written summary of all that you’ve done.
You close by saying, I hope that next year’s salary reflects this list of contributions and you thank them for their time and see yourself out.
I just loved how she made it seem so much less daunting of a task. She said not to underestimate your achievements as women have a tendency underreporting what they’ve done.
The fact that she shared this with me really meant a lot as well as women really need to be there to empower each other and help guide each other towards success. So if you end up using this, let me know! I want to see how it works for you ^_^.

It’s also helpful to research what people in your position are generally paid and give that to your employer. My mom was always underpaid in her positions and was able to consistently get a raise by showing that she should be making significantly more for the position and job duties she was doing.
Kay but my favourite thing about Elfangor is that when you meet him in The Invasion he’s this mysterious, noble, powerful alien with this aura around him that lets the kids know that this guy is a Big Deal
and then you see him in the Andalite Chronicles and he’s driving across a Taxxon planet in a bright yellow Mustang drinking Doctor Pepper and blaring the Rolling Stones
I love Elfangor a lot
Somewhere there is a universe where Tobias’s dad has been Marco’s dad’s eccentric coworker for ages, so when in, like, Book 20, when ‘Al’ is finally revealed to be a Majestic Alien War-Prince in disguise, nerdy little Tobias is basically bluescreened from the unbelieveable awesome and Marco’s like “this dude almost got fired for hacking a vending machine and eating all the strawberry Pop-Tarts during a code push.”
yeah but more importantly WHY HASN’T ANYONE WRITTEN THAT FIC
You know what? Fuck it. Everyone who reblogs this by… Hmm… June 6th gets a hand-drawn dragon head based off of what I think of you.just by looking at your blog.
