Totally. I really like Baltimore for the same reason. And honestly I love Philly because it’s so working class/down to earth compared to other east coast cities.

I know! 😭😭

My fave thing is arriving at PGH and knowing I’m home when I see multiple people wearing faded 90s Steeler sweatshirts and permed feathered highlighted borderline mullets.

My burgh area friends are still pinning chunky blonde and burgundy highlight pics.

Joanna - sadly China Garden closed recently. I used to live right next door. RIP dim sum 😭

Whoa! That is fascinating!!

I really loved traveling to Finnish Lapland and I want to go back as soon as I can. I visited the Siida museum of Sami culture. Recommend!

Even more confusing than caribou/reindeer: Europeans call moose “elk.” Which are different from the animals that we call “elk.”

I didn’t think it was gamey but then again maybe most people haven’t tried a fresh rare reindeer filet a couple hundred miles above the Arctic Circle. Some of that inferior reindeer out there could be gamey.

none of us has the fucking rank to ask about Shelly.

They do, but everybody who’s anybody buys them during the big sale and they don’t cost nearly that much with coupons. (More like $25 I think?)

GAHHHH my dream scenario. That’s amazing. I saw Oh Hello before it made it to Broadway...

I also don’t think POC or gay folks or others out there in their own struggle need to be the ones doing that work; of course not. But the Democratic Party leadership whose actual job it is to make sure they win elections needs to get on the ball.

this. thank you. i do not understand why i keep seeing liberals just saying fuck the white working class instead of, okay, so let’s go at them with a progressive populist message that ISN’T RACIST. unite them against the corporate class that is exploiting them very clearly instead of against “illegals” and Muslims.…

I actually like the lippie stix better than the Ultra Matte from Colourpop (I agree they dry out my lips terribly even with a primer). I’ve tried matte, creme, and sheer lippie stix and I like them all (the sheers are not really sheer, they are very pigmented).

But guys. I have actually done clogging before.

I don’t know beyond this but I believe the smoking gun was that she had him on a tape recording. Which seems hard to get in real life for most of us.

that’s where i’m at, in that i like the idea of an IUD, but i’m on a pill that gives me really no side effects that i know of, i take continuously so no periods for going on 6 years now, and the only drawback is having to take it everyday and the prescription nonsense. like is it even worth asking about Mirena? not…

It’s also very hard to sell in the US where we don’t already have a strong social welfare state where everyone can see tangible benefits. The best you can do is describe to them how things like free public higher education and universal healthcare and paid parental leave work in Europe, and then they either just flat…

I told some adults I was a communist around age 14 (a friend’s parents). They gave me a copy of The Fountainhead which got me into Ayn Rand and later Ron Paul. In my first election I wrote in Ron Paul (2008).
