Richard Dawkins can be pretty great sometimes when talking about atheism and science, but he looks ridiculous compared to Carl Sagan.

The Bechdel Test and Race in Popular Fiction
crystalsavestheday:
1. It has to have two POC in it.
2. Who talk to each other.
3. About something other than a white person.
No Joss Whedon show passes, neither does Supernatural, or Being Human.
Veronica Mars passes, but doesn’t pass the original Bechdel Test.
Check out a few more here.
The Woman in Black (which I will be raving about for the next few hours) is a bloody good...

Taking the little 'un to see The Woman in Black...
I am officially the nicest sister in the world - that is, if we can find the Odeon without getting lost in Bath. Which has happened.
I saw the stage production in London in 2010 and it was the single most scariest thing I have ever experienced - hopefully that will similarly transfer to the big screen.

Nice Man - makes dinner because he’s an adult and the adults in the household do chores because food is necessary for not dying.
“Nice Guy” - makes dinner because he wants you to fuck him.
Nice Man - puts you in bed after you’ve had too much to drink because people who care…

We’re manly men. We fight in wars, we play sport, we drive noisy cars. We’re tough.
We’re terrified of body hair on women though.

The Survivors GQ #November 2011 by Mark Seliger Featuring: Eminem, Lil Wayne, Alex Turner, Outkast and lot more
So I found the video the gif was from, courtesy of some helpful advice from my ever-faithful friends, Anonymous. Bravo.
Although I never thought I’d see the day where Turner was in the same video as Iggy Pop and Lil’ Wayne.

Weirdly, Spotify has ‘Garfield’ as being released in 2011. It sounds a lot like what I’ve heard of The Moldy Peaches, whereas Green’s other work is a far cry from its lo-fi production.
Dear lord. I just did a Google search to find a picture to accompany this and stumbled across a picture of Adam Green completely naked.

I knew there was a reason I've been singing this...
I try to discover
A little something to make me sweeter
Oh baby refrain
From breaking my heart.
I’m so in love with you;
I’ll be forever blue
That you give me no reason
Why you make me work so hard -
That you give me no
That you give me no
That you give me no
That you give me no soul.
I hear you calling
Oh baby, please -
Give a little respect to me.

If you walk away I'll walk away
But first tell me which road you will take
I don’t want to risk our paths crossing someday
So you walk this way, I’ll walk this way.
I think we can all recognize that the “it’s a joke excuse” is the most...
