Perfect timing, I just moved into my own place for the first time and am in that exact struggle of wanting it to be the perfect place right away. There’s just something very lonely about an otherwise empty room full of boxes. I keep reminding myself how great it will be to have everything exactly like I want without…

You don’t need a humidifier for your fern. Buy “The new plant parent” book or just follow @houseplantjournal on instagram and the ROI will be well worth it (before you go through 3 cycles of dead plants).

Congratulations! Your place looks chic & cozy. I am going to steal a bunch of your ideas & very jealous of your plants. I hope you have a lot of fun in your new home. 🌻

I think she’ll probably need to find a man that she finds comparatively better, before she leaves Offset for good. If her chief justifications are “he’s my best friend” and “I’m horny” ... well, eventually she might figure out that best friends don’t cheat on you, and dick is a plentiful and renewable resource.

Very late to SNS at this point—I am trying to get over a non-relationship that is also the most relationship of any of my combined romantic and/or sexual experiences to this point in my life even though I’m 30 years old and have always been pretty conventionally attractive and never spent any time in a cult or…

There’s a lot of shit to dislike about Bill Burr, but of all the inane shit he said, the reminder that white women have benefited from white privilege for centuries was accurate and worthwhile. The rest of the monologue though... physically uncomfortable. 

I was unfamiliar with Bill Burr until this. I simply didn’t find him funny.

I was a iffy on that whole bit until the “sit down next to me and take your talking to,” which is a really good capper. Burr is an asshole or whatever, he was decently clever in that monologue about using “wokeness” for comedic value without dipping too heavily into lazy “Don’t you hate the PC police!” tropes (which…

All the liberal white women that were on Twitter labeling this bit “misogynist”...yikes.

I’d really like to taste one again, and have some banana bread made from them.

Old bananas work best. Seriously, use really old ones that you wouldn’t eat otherwise. It is also better if you wrap it and let it sit for a day or two before consuming. Lastly, look for a recipe with brown sugar in it or sub a quarter to half of the white sugar for brown. If it starts to brown up too much before the…

I’ve read Jane Eyre at almost all of the pivotal times of my life. The first time, I was around nine and a very angry child—I loved that about Jane (granted, I stopped reading after she grew up). I read it in my teens when I thought it was desperately romantic. I read it when I was on my own in my twenties and knew…

I don’t know you, but I love you. You are a beautiful human being whose bunch of cells is just what the world needs at this moment.

My mother told me bananas tasted different when she was young. I thought it was a bit of old lady brain fog until I heard about the other kind of banana- now I really want to taste one.

I'm in desperate need of book recommendations so you couldn't have asked a better question Cheers. My bookshelf is full of beloved favourites but I need something new to sink my teeth into...

This!  Make muffins.  When you make loaves it can sometimes collapse in the middle.  Make muffins and don’t use the liners so each one has the good crusty part.  Bake them the same time you would a blueberry muffin.  

*applause for the Dracula passage, one of my favorite books*

I read Jane Eyre at least once a year

Rough week. My friend from all the way back in elementary school died of Covid. I’m still trying to absorb all that.

I posted last week about moving out on my own for the first time, thanks to all of you who gave advice! Especially whoever said to make my bed- I did it this morning and every time I run something up to my room, it feels so much less chaotic, even with boxes everywhere. Especially since I’ve been falling asleep with…
