BUT ARE THEY GAY SKELETONS??? BECAUSE I CAN’T BE HAVING THAT KIND OF FILTH ON MY BLOG!
Who cares? Look how happy they are!
It’s just that I have never seen such enormous boners. They’re so hard for each other.
Uhm, excuse me, but is that a washing machine in the kitchen in the second pic? What even?!
In London at least, if not most of England, if not Europe… they put clothes washers in the kitchen. And then blink at you and say, “Well, where else would you put it? The bathroom?” I know. I know. Believe me.
As and English person I can attest to this. My washing machine is in my kitchen. Everyone I know, all over the UK and expats in Europe, keeps their washing machine in their kitchen. Where do you dear Americans keep yours? I am utterly confused - it seems a perfectly logical place to keep a washing machine!
I had the option to put mine either in my kitchen or my bathroom. Because it was handier for the space, I opted for the bathroom.
i love how there’s pictures of skeleton sex and everyone’s talking about washing machines
Our washing machine is in the garage.
Just 45 years ago, 16 states deemed marriages between two people of different races illegal.
But in 1967, the U.S. Supreme Court considered the case of Richard Perry Loving, who was white, and his wife, Mildred Loving, of African American and Native American descent.
The case changed history - and was captured on film by LIFE photographer Grey Villet, whose black-and-white photographs are now set to go on display at the International Center of Photography.
Twenty images show the tenderness and family support enjoyed by Mildred and Richard and their three children, Peggy, Sidney and Donald.
The children, unaware of the struggles their parents face, are captured by Villet as blissfully happy as they play in the fields near their Virginia home or share secrets with their parents on the couch.
Their parents, caught sharing a kiss on their front porch, appear more worry-stricken.
And it is no wonder - eight years prior, the pair had married in the District of Columbia to evade the Racial Integrity Act of 1924, which banned any white person marrying any non-white person.
But when they returned to Virginia, police stormed into their room in the middle of the night and they were arrested.
The pair were found guilty of miscegenation in 1959 and were each sentenced to one year in prison, suspended for 25 years if they left Virginia.
They moved back to the District of Columbia, where they began the long legal battle to erase their criminal records - and justify their relationship.
Following vocal support from the Presbyterian and Roman Catholic churches, the Lovings won the fight - with the Supreme Court branding Virginia’s anti-miscegenation law unconstitutional in 1967.
It wrote in its decision: ‘Marriage is one of the basic civil rights of man, fundamental to our very existence and survival.
‘To deny this fundamental freedom on so unsupportable a basis as the racial classifications embodied in these statutes, classifications so directly subversive of the principle of equality at the heart of the Fourteenth Amendment, is surely to deprive all the State’s citizens of liberty without due process of law.’ [Read more]
Loving v. Virginia is one of my favorite Supreme Court cases.

Hot Coffee
Latest Flash game from the inventive and prolific Pippin Bar (responsible for the 8-Bit ‘The Artist Is Present - Marina Abramovic’ and recently ‘Epic Sax Game’). Here, there is no change with the visual style, but is a series of challenges to make the perfect cup of coffee at the end of a hot date. It’s a knowing wink to the gaming controversy from GTA 3: San Andreas.
In the creator’s own words:
… in Hot Coffee all you do is actually make a cup of coffee, but in a highly suggestive and innuendo-fueled manner.
You can read about the thoughts and background to the game at Bar’s blog here, or if you want to play the game, you can check it out here
