"Stop Being A Perfect Girl And Start Enjoying Your Life’s Little Wonderful Things…I’m Talking About

"Stop being a perfect girl and start enjoying your life’s little wonderful things…I’m talking about eating a slice of warm pizza when it’s freezing outside, sharing a beer at the end of the day with your best friend, taking a nap without setting your alarm. I’m talking about laughing during sex. I’m talking about playing poker with the guys. I’m talking about dancing with the girls. I’m talking about Saturday-night board games and Sunday-afternoon softball. I’m talking about spontaneity—ice lollies in the snow, hot dogs on the street, calling in sick on the spur of the moment. Celebrate everything and anything—your first publication in a magazine, the anniversary of the day you paid off your college debt, a Thursday. You are young. Act like it."

Courtney E. Martin — “Perfect Girls, Starving Daughters” (via ironicdaisy)

STARKID IS COMING TO PORTLAND, BUT WHO WILL BE THERE? We Figure You Guys Could Guess That After Last

STARKID IS COMING TO PORTLAND, BUT WHO WILL BE THERE? We figure you guys could guess that after last year we’d be inviting back Team StarKid to be part of LeakyCon Portland, but we know you DON’T know who will be there this year as part of our Very StarKid Event.  Want to find out?  We’ve got exclusive selfies from the StarKids to reveal their participation, but to see them you have to unlock the grid above, starting right here on Tumblr. When this post gets 500 notes, we’ll unlock the first StarKid performer (in a new post) and so on until we move to the next social media platform. 

Got your reblog finger ready?  GO!

Edit: For those asking, this is just the Portland event lineup.  London info COMING SOON.

THEY ARE ALL OKAY, and all those things could exist in THE SAME WOMAN. Women shouldn’t be valued because we are strong, or kick-ass, but because we are people. So don’t focus on writing characters who are strong. Write characters who are people. —madlori

Hello, ladies

Hello, Ladies

 Look at your man, now back to me

Hello, Ladies

 Now back at your man, now back to me

Hello, Ladies

Sadly, he isn’t me

Hello, Ladies

 But if he activated his dapper mode

Hello, Ladies

 And started to wear bow ties, he could look like me

Hello, Ladies

Look down, back up, where are you?

Hello, Ladies

You’re being serenaded by the man your man could look like

Hello, Ladies

What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s a baby penguin

Hello, Ladies

Look again, now i’m on a roof

Hello, Ladies

Anything is possible when you have this face

Hello, Ladies

And polka music, bitches love polka music

Hello, Ladies

I’m Harry Potter

Hello, Ladies
