The Descendants (2011)

this movie was really good and very deserving off all the awards it won.

    i hate when people complain about being tired…

    that’s not really supposed to be a general statement. more like i can’t stand the people in my house who say this. i work twelve hours a day and go to the gym for two hours before that. monday nights i am literally awake from 4:15am to 11:30 pm. I work an extra job monday nights from 6:30-10:45pm. then tuesday nights i have training and workout from 6-almost 9. then wednesday back to the gym for five. thursday it’s the same and friday as well. saturday i sleep in as late as possible and try to do the same on sunday. all my free time is done doing laundry or organizing or writing. i don’t want to hear about how tired you are after working at a lazy man’s job from 9:45am to 4pm, okay? i work. i write. i workout. i pick up extra babysitting jobs wherever i can. i barely sleep six hours a night. the thing that kills me is that they have the ability to sleep for ten hours a night…they choose to stay up late and wake up late. get the fuck up and do something for christ’s sake!

    shannoncates:

    At first:

    But then, I remembered the end of last episode:

    Emma believes!

    (And her angry face :D)

    Regina and Emma working together:

    But the magic potion is inside a freaking dragon’s freaking ear or something.

    And then I’m like:

    JUST KIDDING. I was like this:

    And then Snow White/Charming and Rumbelle <3:

    Haha, Regina. None for you.

    And the end.

    I have no feelings left to feel:

    How long until Season 2?

    i have no feelings left to feel.

Mitt Romney has an uphill battle. Unseating a seated president is difficult for any candidate. The snake you know is always better than the snake you don’t. Plus, Mitt is GOP in 2012.A new Washington Post poll is out showing Obama ahead in the the swing state of Virginia 51% to 44%. It’s the fifth swing state poll in just a few days (the other four being OH, WI, FL, and PA), and it looks as though Mitt has a lot of work to do before he can even lose respectably. If he half-asses it, he’s going to get stomped like a narc at a biker rally.If you look closer at these polls like I did (being the severely bored person I am), you’ll see that the GOP’s problem is women. Yep, the GOP has a problem with women, what with their pesky demand for having control over their own bodies and their annoying habit of voting.In Virgina, the Transvaginal Ultrasound Fiasco (TUF) didn’t help matters at all. In case you don’t know, the transvaginal ultrasound is where a woman who is considering an abortion must, by law, spread her legs and have her vagina invaded with an ultrasound device to show her the “baby” she is thinking about “killing”. State-mandated medical rape, in other words.Weirdly, this brilliant piece of GOP thinking pissed off a whole bunch of women and even some men, who actually sat down their beers and looked up from the game, cocking a collective eyebrow of concern. The Republicans, seeing the anger, backed off, saying, “Maybe forcing a woman to spread her legs and invading her vagina is a bad idea, especially if it makes a lot of people not want to vote for us.”But the damage was done. By and large, women don’t like the GOP these days, and it’s reflected in poll after poll.America is generally a pretty conservative place, but the Republican Party of 2012 has gone overboard. The extremism of Fox News is actually driving the debate for the GOP, much to it and Romney’s detriment.Over the last few years, Republicans have worked at every level of government to roll back, limit, or outright kill just about every advance feminism has made for this country. There are even those that would turn us into a Christian Saudi Arabia. Just last month, a preacher was lamenting the fact that women had the right to vote. He called it a mistake. Women’s Suffrage, he says, is a mistake. You probably heard about it. If not, his name is Reverend Jesse Lee Peterson and he appears, not surprisingly, on Fox News’ Hannity quite a bit. In fact, Sean Hannity sits on the advisory board of Peterson’s little He-Man Woman Haters Club. Called, inelegantly, the Brotherhood Organization of A New Destiny, it is no doubt located in a 1930s treehouse.All of this has hurt the GOP’s standing with women far more deeply than it would like to admit. It has only played well with a core group of evangelicals who don’t have the numbers to run this country, but who feel they have the god-given right.Anyway, President Obama sends his thanks.share on Facebook :: columns :: books

this is brilliant.
why can&#8217;t you run for president??
