Eh, I see it as an adolescent enthusiasm that can be pro-feminism, pro-religion, both, mixed, whatev. Kinda strikes me as an offshoot of the whole Dove Campaign for Real Beauty idea. The premise is fine, since they don't appear to be all OMG, makeup is Teh Debil.
I think it's fine, but I imagine they are still using proactiv, shampoo, hairproducts, perfume, bras and deordorant on Tuesdays. And they are all very pretty girls anyway, with nary a case of cystic acne to be seen. (And it's only Tuesdays, not Friday or Saturday, heh. That would be Too Much.)
It's the only Tuesdays part that amuses me, but I couldn't possibly be arsed to wear make up on a daily basis until I found myself in my 30s in front of a classroom teaching.
Weirdly, the site that supposedly inspired them is about ending negative self-"fat talk." From my quick perusal, I don't see anything about makeup.
I in no way think it's a horrid ideal to have, but I do find myself gently amused by it. All the slim, pretty sixteen year olds with highlights.
I have several friends who wouldn't leave the house without a full face of makeup until well into their 20s.
The drill reached the Chilean miners!

Yay! How long have they been down there?
(But he did get to do one of Bobby Orr for the Bruins, so nyah)
Definitely better than a statue of an egotistical loudmouth. Hull was mega-talented, but inherited not one iota of his father's class.
We skated in the UWSP homecoming parade this morning. Mid-State Sisters of Skate!
AWESOME

Also AWESOME
I got my hair cut then and then ated too much sushi at lunch with Juliana, and then wandered around a bit, which was also awesome.
Not as awesome, I checked my work email and found an email from one of our associates asking that I call her right away for rush help. I called, and got her voice mail, so I told her she really should email her request to me and the SF librarians, and one of us would help her as soon as we could.
Less than 5 minutes later, she calls me back, and tells me she doesn't need help, so I tell her again that if she does, she need to email all of the librarians. I also email her saying the same thing, and tell her it's especially important these days because I will be sporadically out on medical leave.
5 minutes later she called me back, because she thought of more help she needed.
