Dieting leads to loss of lean tissue and not fat, exercise doesn't lead to significant weight loss

adipose:

Here’s an idea: Stop focusing on size and weight and focus on health. Be responsible when you eat and commit to physical activity. The likely result will be something other than the government prescribed ideal BMI. But you know what? The government doesn’t know shit.

See: FDA, FEMA, EPA, Department of Defense, Homeland Security…

My experience living in New York was that all the interesting people came from somewhere boring.

Anglicans vote to allow women bishops

atheistramblings:

Despite the fact that 1300 misogynous male clergy have threatened to leave the Anglican Church if it allowed women bishops, The General Synod of the Anglican church has voted to bring forward legislation to ordain women bishops.

As a feminist and an atheist, I don’t know how to respond. I guess I’m happy that woman have an additional career choice. I’m also happy that organized religion is starting to realize that it can’t shape society (in fact, the opposite is becoming ever-more true). Still, I fail to understand the appeal of Judeo-Christian-Muslim religions.

I’ll give this one to the feminist in me. Yay women!

Goal: memorize Greensleeves

Ah, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu,
To God I pray to prosper thee,
For I am still thy lover true,
Come once again and love me.

-final verse of Greensleeves

auditinprogress:

My office phone is broken. It even drops the call when I check my voicemail. After months of dropped calls that progressively get worse, they still cannot figure out how to fix it. This is about as frustrating as it gets (seriously, I have to use my cell phone to make intra-office calls).

Blah.

You can’t win can you?!

Dear Universe,

What do I have to do to get that job? You know how much I want it. Just tell me!

Love,
Sarah

Mia Michaels blows my mind every time.

I love this photo for so many reasons…but mainly because I often think that my old age will be the time for me to cut loose and let my hair down, kind of like my teenage years revisited.

saramcpherson:

Old lady from New Zealand at the flea market. I hope I’m this awesome when I’m 90.

this is the type of fierceness i was talking about the other day. Love it.

I’m not waiting until I’m 90. Word.

Re-blog this statement if it applies to you.
