My problem with posts like these is the following:
Calling a model ugly without makeup is both inaccurate and almost more offensive than the presumption that everyone should try to look like models all the time buy buy buy so you can be more attractive…
The models in this post are all amazing-looking without makeup … and only look made-up with it … also the last picture is hilarious.
However … I’m totally on board with bashing over-photoshopped images! Photoshop’d pictures, while at times hilarious, are, in my opinion, much more damaging than any makeup ad.

Every era has its own way of degrading women, we go from calling them witches, to bitches, to sluts. It’s been going on for far too long, it may not be such a problem from the privileged male that thrives from it, but it’s putting down the female, whom are equals to us.

Will You See Today’s Annular Solar Eclipse?
Just in case you haven’t heard, an annular eclipse will dazzle the Pacific Ocean on Sunday (Monday in Asia); beginning at dawn for China and Japan, ending at sunset for western U.S. states — marching from the Oregon and Northern California coast to Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona and Texas.
For U.S. eclipse watchers, the path of “annularity” — or the annular eclipse “ring of fire” — will be seen from locations such as Medford, Oregon; Chico, California; Reno, Nevada; St. George, Utah; Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Lubbock, Texas, according to Spaceweather.com. The whole event will begin in the U.S. from 5:30 p.m. PST and last for around 2 hours. Sadly for eastern U.S. states, the eclipse will occur after sunset, hence the focus on the West Coast.
Please submit your photos of the eclipse here

Glacier Flows in Iceland

"I guess I never caught that bug where you’re only supposed to care about your own country or your own local area. To me, 49 decapitated Mexicans is just as bad as 49 decapitated Americans and I know if there were 49 decapitated Americans in the street anywhere in the country, it would be like 9/11 all over again. It would be the largest news story for years - if it just happened once - but it happens time and time again in Mexico… and I guess as long as Americans aren’t getting decapitated, apparently the rest of the country, and especially our media, couldn’t give a damn and that’s part of what’s sick and wrong with this country’s media. And so, we march on as if nothing is wrong, as if everything is hunky dory, as if the war on drugs makes sense and hasn’t created these grotesque gangs that grow larger and more grotesque by the day - and it’s not because of the drugs. It’s because the drugs are illegal."

Hey West Coast,
Don’t forget to send us images of the annular eclipse, which has the moon passing directly in the way of our view of the sun on Sunday.
The full eclipse starts Sunday in Medford, Ore., at 6:26 p.m. PT, and ends in Lubbock, Texas, at 8:40 p.m. CT. A partial eclipse will be viewable everywhere from San Francisco to Buffalo early on Sunday evening.
