9 Female Characters We Wish We’d Been More Like In High School
Because teenagerdom is a mess, but some people handle it better than others.
It Belongs in a Museum!
If you find yourself loving Caitlin Doughty‘s Ask A Mortician but wish she talked more about the embalming techniques of cash-strapped small museums doing their best to present the science of the natural world to their patrons and/or animals, you might want to check out the latest addition to the Nerdfighter YouTube family, The Brain Scoop, featuring Emily Graslie, the volunteer curatorial assistant at the University of Montana Zoological museum. Above is the first episode of her new show covering the museum’s unseen (because there is only so much display space) collections. Below is her first Q&A video (which includes how the museum acquires its animal remains), and below that, if you’ve got a hankering for the creepy, she shows us the dark basement room where all the things in formaldehyde jars are kept because there’s no other space for them. Enjoy!

"SHARKS. Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the uterus." - A thing I just said in chat, sans context.

In a perfect world, that would make those men MORE sympathetic to women when they talk about objectification of women in media.
-
Susana Polo
But really the take away from this is that two seconds of quickly covered up Chris Hemsworth stomach makes some men feel objectified.
-
Susana Polo
Good to know that a broad trend across much of visual media has effected one man, in one shot. We can all go home, sexism is over.
-
Susana Polo
Whenever we bring up objectification of women in modern action movies, people always bring up the one shot of Chris Hemsworth shirtless.

Somebody thinks I'm a hypocrite for disliking the Merida redesign and supporting a Wonder Woman show at the same time. ¯\(°_o)/¯

The Voyager crew is in 1996 LA. Also Ed Begley and Sarah Silverman are there. I LOVE IT when Star Trek does cheesy time travel.
