Tryna get more tan this summer, too. I think it’s working?!?
Is lying just a human trait or do animals lie, too? Many people believe animals don’t lie, that they’re immune to such human failings. However, many studies show that animals do indeed lie. In fact, lying appears to be a sign of intelligence. Therefore, the more intelligent the animal, the more likely it is to lie.

A fenced in area with only gay guys? No straight people allowed?
Sounds pretty good to me.
Am I wrong?
Did some family research on ‘genealogy.com’ during my break at my internship today. Found out that most of my family on my grandfather’s side comes from the smaller town of Gortland, Sweden. SO CUTE. I want to go.
Also found out that my great-grandmother’s sister accidentally drank lye that was used to clean clothes- when she was 2, and died. Was sort of down in the dumps for the rest of the day after I read that…
But still, COOL STUFF

First Listen: Regina Spektor, 'What We Saw From The Cheap Seats' -
A genuine oddball with a salty side, Regina Spektor possesses a vocal style rangy enough to encompass sweet nothings, animal noises, drum sounds and funny accents. But for all her occasional flights of fancy — or perhaps because her unpredictability makes her sincerity more disarming — Spektor is a skilled sentimentalist whose words summon universal feelings of love, hope, disappointment and desire.
Spektor’s first new studio album in three years, What We Saw From the Cheap Seats (out May 29) finds her scattering in several directions without losing sight of the sweet melodies that make her so accessible. “Don’t Leave Me (Ne Me Quitte Pas)” bounces and lilts through an almost comically jaunty arrangement — it’s 3 minutes and 40 seconds of pure, sprightly ingratiation — before giving way to the sparklingly gorgeous ballad “Firewood,” whose minor-key piano and hopeful realism make it one of her finest songs. Spektor may get silly in “Oh Marcello,” or imitate drum blasts in “All the Rowboats,” but she’s forever on the verge of a devastating insight or a gasp-inducing succession of notes.
For a classically trained performer with an unusual history — she moved from Moscow to the Bronx when she was 9, then later trained at a music conservatory — Spektor has a remarkable gift for gut-level connection, and for drawing a straight line from her idea-packed head to thousands of bleeding hearts. On What We Saw From the Cheap Seats, as on its predecessors, even the weirdest moment comes in service of warmth that’s as kind and necessary as an old friend.
