Obama mentions his wife in his victory speech: “…The woman who agreed to marry me 20 years ago”
Romney mentions his wife in his concession speech: “… The woman I chose to marry”
It’s amazing how someone’s views on equality can come out in one simple sentence

Except you can’t show a topless woman on TV - and you can’t defibrillate a woman in a bra. So victims of heart attacks on TV are *always* male. Did you know that a woman having a heart attack is more likely to have back or jaw pain than chest or left arm pain? I didn’t - because I’ve never seen a woman having a heart attack. I’ve been trained in CPR and Advanced First Aid by the Red Cross over 15 times in my life, the videos and booklets always have a guy and say the same thing about clutching his chest and/or bicep.
And people laugh when I tell them women are still invisible in this world.
Things I did not know, but should.

My mom worked for 25 years as an ER nurse and is convinced that a lot of women die simply because folks only know heart attack symptoms that occur in males.

I reblog this every time I see it - premature death from heart attack runs in my family (my dad died of it and so did his dad, as has an uncle, an aunt and several cousins) and I’m aware that as a result me and my two sisters could well be at as much risk as our brother from having inherited a particular tendency toward heart attacks and heart disease. No one gets to die just because they don’t recognise their symptoms!

How do you like them apples?
So, I’ve never seen this Lena photo before. And it’s completely hilarious. Where has it been all my life?
Don’t get me wrong—I forever worship at the altar of Tilda. But does anyone else really miss her as a redhead?
Another one of Diane being friendly with a lady… Hey, I can dream, can’t I?
She’s just so lovely. Why didn’t Robert De Niro continue to take as many risky roles in his golden years as Deneuve has? Sad.
No words. Only thoughts. Very dirty thoughts.
I still haven’t recovered from the cancellation of this show. I secretly hope they’ll make a movie, a la Firefly with Serenity.
