Facebook privacy
I have my family on Facebook. With my being abroad, they want to have me on that social network and I’m fine with it. However, FB has been fucking around with privacy so much I’ve realised my relatives can see a lot more than I wanted them to. Initially I just wanted them to see my information but right now they can see my wall, although they can’t post on it.
I hate to be that...

I went out to a dinner a month ago with a few South Americans (all in graduate school at my university) who mentioned returning to their homelands, post-30’s, after they’ve lived their finer years in US America’s urban hubs. The optimism...

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo that is all. I don’t want to say something that makes it look like i’m guilting you into wearing it XD. But…that sucks :/
Don’t worry doll, I tried it on to make sure I was sure I wasn’t wearing it and… I look banging. In fact, I’m gonna post some...
Ever since my relative made that comment about my weight I have been panicking about my NYE outfit. It is a black lace see-through dress and now I don’t feel confident enough to wear it. Shit, guys, I bought it in fucking October, that’s how long I’d planned to wear it. I’ll have a think but I may just wear another dress I have which makes me takes 10 kg off me. I...

And it’s like, I don’t hate the girl you know. She’s cute, she seems nice and well meaning, if she see’s her self as quirky or whatever, sure that’s cool you can do that.
But what bothers me is how she’s become the “it” girl for all things alt when it’s like, she’s not really all that ground…

I feel the same way. There is actually a campaign called “Make It Better”, where you can actually take action (like writing letters to Congresspeople, superintendents, etc.) against bullying.
I really hate “It...

GURL. *gives you Teacher Face over rim of glasses* Red is not just attention-grabbing it is a WARNING TO THE WORLD THAT THE HBIC HAS JUST ENTERED THE ROOM. An’ they best RESPECT. At least wear that red lipstick of yours. That’s still good luck.

How do you take care of nails? The top layer peels off for me too(I don’t have psoriasis though, I think it’s just my nails who don’t like Sally Hansen)when the varnish chips off/I start to pick at it and then the nails stay all streaked for a while.
I use a base coat that’s a nail hardener too....

How do you not own anything red? I bet you’d look smashing in it.
I am not completely comfortable with my body and red is very attention grabbing, I’d rather not draw attention to it.
Guys, emberfine is my home gurl ♥ ♥

Shitt according to Spanish superstition you have to wear something red on New Year’s Eve to attract good luck and I forgot to buy anything. I’ll have to wear some little red ribbon around my wrist.

I feel your pain. Every single time I kiiiiinda gain control over my body-related self-loathing, someone will make an “innocuous” comment that just sends me spiraling back down. Fight the good fight, sister suffrage
Thank you <3 <3 I don’t get why people feel the need to let you know their opinion about your body and mask it under...
Ladies: free. Gentlemen: €8
Yesterday I went out with some friends. Towards the end of the night, when the bar where we were closed, we decided to continue somewhere else. We first went to a famous gay club in Valencia, the classic one, which has been open for decades. It was €8 to go in. Ruth and I decided it was a bit too pricey to go into a gay club we had no major interest in. A PR from another club approached us and...

Aunt Lola
Yesterday we went to visit my mum’s elderly aunt, Aunt Lola. Aunt Lola took my face between her hands and said over and over again, what a dollface I have and how gorgeous I am. She then asked me to show her a picture of Matt, and Mum mentioned how skinny Matt is. Aunt Lola looked at me and said, “you have to lose weight”. I answered, “Auntie, I think I look fabulous. I am...

– Why Women Aren’t Crazy (via lagrandefille)
I hate when people claim that women are crazy or complicated or don’t know what they want because fuck you. When a woman is vocal about her opinions, desires, feelings, you call her a bitch or crazy or hysterical. Women have been taught that the only way...
