I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

ETA: Plei, do you think it would upset you if Lily cut her own hair?

Yes.

I don't think she would, because she's very attached to her hair, but yes, it would upset me greatly. Possibly not as upset as she'd be, though. She's really really attached to her hair.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Anybody know what site that was?

Guidestar, BBB Wise Giving Alliance, or the one I don't like whose name I can't remember, but is probably what you're thinking of...

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I've seen the Caprica ad but I'm not familiar with the Ralph Lauren ad. . . or at least, I don't remember it.

It's the one where the model looks strange because they PSed her waist so she looks like a big headded freak who shaved off her mid-section.

Because that Caprica ad had me thinking there should be more of her back, if the waist was going to look that small, then I got a closer look, and it just looks...wrong.

Thanks, Jesse. (Some people I sorta know are organizing a bake sale to raise money for Haiti, and I wanted to check out the group that the money is going to before committing to anything.)

Oh, or Charity Navigator -- I think they're the one I've had issue with in the past, but they make pretty pie charts and stuff.

information libertarian

If Lily's attached to it, that seems different to me. Less like projection/objectification, which bothers me. (I have personal issues about long-uncut hair and femininity/submission, too - my father preferred it, and my proud rebellion at age 12 was to go pixie cut.)

10 former child stars you'd sleep with today (they are all of age now, though I'd still feel squicky over a few.)

Yeah, my mother didn't like having to detangle my hair, and thus I spent my childhood with a series of unflattering and ghastly hair cuts from the local cheap chain. And when I did want long hair, I was only allowed it if I had a mullet. So my issues around hair are kind of the opposite.

I mean, I'm sure Lillian's attachment comes in large part from people fawning over it, myself included, but it doesn't make the attachment any less real for her.

OK, I have no idea what to do with this information. Anyone (Jesse?) able to tell me if this is an OK group? It looks like only one of the sites has any information on them. [link] Thanks.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I went at looked at syfy.com because I don't think I've seen that ad. It does look wrong. Possibly like her head is twisted around further than necks really twist. Possibly because her back has been shrunk. But not right.

That is one helluva headline, flea.
