I’m down with taupe, this seems doable! And don’t mistake me, 1993 is a Lip Goal, but as someone who puts on Burt’s Bees tinted Chapstick and thinks “too much?” I haven’t earned it yet. I am much better at smokey eye than smokey mouth.

Great tips! I’ll defer to your definition of tightlining, since you clearly know a ton more than I do about this – I’m like a tiny baby when it comes to makeup. I looove shiny things and bright colors, but every time I grab something I just make a mess.

“THIS APPLE IS NOT SLICED THE RIGHT THICKNESS!!”

Don’t bother with Tend Skin

Yeeeah, every time I feel like my kids eat unhealthy I remind myself how we’d put like a tablespoon of sugar on our rice krispies, or how mom bought endless entemans and hostess etc. ( OMG DELICIOUS. NO, WRONG. NO DELICIOUS.) and we had lots of frozen dinners etc.

can i just get a goat plz

Ya, I was trying to find some healthy alternatives for Halloween candy and picked up a package of these, looked at what was in them, and then went and bought mini-chocolate bars. At least when you eat chocolate you know your eating crap.

Me reading this article: *please don’t be an American couple. Please don’t be an American couple.*

Yeah. I accidentally ruined gummy bears for a friend that way. She didn’t know what gelatin was when I said that they aren’t suitable for vegetarians. She threw them in the garbage after I told her. =(

I grew up vegetarian, have never willingly eaten meat. Accidents happen with a stray piece of chicken in a salad or such. But I know where ribs come from! I know what meats come from which animals! There is no excuse people because stupid isn't enough.

Sadly, it’s true. They don’t care about protecting people, it’s just a facade. They want to exploit people’s trust as much as they can, and this is all a game to them. When I was young, I worked as a bartender at a little Italian place, and off-duty cops would always come in and just say horrible, horrible things -…

You know what?

I just read that 20 minutes ago. I still can’t get over the fact that they let the accused take a piece of evidence-the video camera-back to his lawyer’s office to pull the footage and are treating it as if there’s nothing wrong with that. And they’re still using the footage as actual evidence.

It’s spelt “amen” but it’s pronounced, “ah, men.”

God, I am sorry.

At my highschool this silly woman became vice principal and started cracking down on the dress code, which until then, I did not realize existed. My friends and I wore all sorts of bizarre things. We were rural working class punks in a rough little hippie industrial port who did a LOT of acid and dressed exactly how…

Grew up in NWI and we had that rule, too. If you didn’t write your name, the course, and the date correctly, you would risk detention. The problem is that each teacher preferred a different type of date (one might prefer September 27th and another would want 9/27) and the location of where these needed to be (top…

This sort of thing is SOP at schools which serve a largely minority population. “We have to instill discipline in these kids” = thinly veiled racist institutional policy rationale.

I’m in Chicago and one of my teacher friends was telling me about some of the rules that some of the schools have in place. Apparently, at one of the schools on the southside if the kid does not write the date on their homework, they get detention. Could not wrap my mind around that one. It’s supposed to teach them to…

Actually, we need to separate “work-life balance” from parenthood, or motherhood, so that it applies to everyone. Nobody should be working 60 hours every week, regardless of parental status. We need to make it clear that parents aren’t asking for special treatment when they want to leave the office at 5. Everyone…
