Nobody can convince me that there’s in justification for this

I have ZERO interest in being the “cool girlfriend.” I am a cool girlfriend, that’s why you’re dating me. I’m not gonna pretend to love football, or drink beer with you or dress down to impress your boys or whatever. I do not care. And I don’t care if you’re into fashion though if I’m dating you, you most likely are, anyway. We’re grown ass people, we don’t need to have 100% of the same interests, we can do shit alone or with our friends and we sure as hell don’t need to be faking something just to impress the other. 

How to Care for an Introvert

How to Care for an Introvert 1. Respect their need for privacy and to spend time alone. 2. Be careful never to embarrass them in public. 3. When they are in a new situation, allow them to stand back, and watch what’s going on. 4. Allow them time to process what you’re asking or saying. Don’t demand an answer right away. 5. Be patient if they hesitate to find the right words – and never interrupt while they are speaking. 6. If you are going to change or cancel plans, give them plenty of prior notice. 7. Allow them to practice and perfect skills alone. 8. Correct or challenge them privately – never in front of an audience. 9. Don’t force them to hang out with a crowd of people, or expect them to amass a lot of friends. A few good friends is more comfortable for them. 10. Don’t try to turn them into an extrovert. Respect them for being exactly who they are.

Bill was doing a program on muscles and tendons for his show and as part of that, visited a ballet. While there, he noticed that all the ballerina’s pointy shoes were bloody. This is part of the struggle of dancing on pointe, yes, but Bill decided that ballet shoes needed an update badly. Since ballet shoes really haven’t been updated in recent years, Nye decided to create a new one.

Fantastic news for people who suffer regularly from migraine headaches. The FDA has just approved a wearable electrical stimulation device for sales in the United States — a headband that prevents the onset of migraines when worn for just 20 minutes each day.

A device like this is definitely long overdue. Some 10% of people worldwide suffer from migraines, a condition characterized by intense pulsing or throbbing pain in one area of the head, accompanied by nausea or vomiting and sensitivity to light and sound.

Developed by STX-Med in Beligum, Cefaly is a compact, portable, battery-powered, prescription device. It’s placed at the center of the forehead, just above the eyes, using a self-adhesive electrode. The headband then delivers transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) to the trigeminal nerve known to be involved in migraine headaches. The only known noticeable effect is a tingling or massaging sensation where the electrode is applied. It can only be used by people age 18 or older and should be used no more than once per day for 20 minutes. [x]

I appreciate the fact that they got a designer to make it look like a space tiara. They didn’t have to go that extra mile, but they did, because they care.

Smoke some fucking weed! Proven to work. Does not involve space tiara. Will not electrocute your head. Shocking your head isn't a good idea.
