Which is interesting, especially as the Dove campaigns are praised for lauding “natural beauty” and all women.  

Here me out. I wonder at the impact this will have on East Asian skin care as well, where paleness has long been prized, to the point of the super aggressive sun hats. Ihad a long term SO who was gen 1.5 Taiwanese American, who bought me those aggressive sun hats. Granted in my case, as a burner and freckler verses…

I’m a big fan of balsamic on ice cream, so now I’m drooling at the thought of marinating my bit fat juicy Michigan Black Cherries (all other black cherries do not measure up) and putting it over a really good vanilla.  mmmm  However, the thought of pitting my cherries takes a bit of the glee out of the thought.

I hope so.  I know I’m tired of doctors, specialists, etc just shrugging at my permanently high ESR and C reactive proteins baffled about how to treat, and then just doing nothing but sending me on my unmerry way.

She got it in 2008, claiming to be battling a bacterial infection that has several antibiotics that kill it is already firmly into woo land, according to prevailing science. Don’t get me wrong, I firmly believe in Post Lyme Syndrome, but Chronic Lyme (as in continuing infection after antibiotic treatment) does not…

I’m wondering what you think of the way the Coney Islands in the Detroit area do for their “greek salads” The basics are lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red onion, pickled beets, feta, olives, pepperoncini, and a vinaigrette that contains oregano for sure. There are places that add more stuff. My favorite adds green…

Somehow, I feel this is more the debate between the two camps on Lyme Disease. The prevailing belief that once you complete a round of antibiotics it’s gone, and the Lyme Literate Doctor belief that it comes and goes. Then there’s Post Lyme Syndrome, which is a new school of thought about the disease. I contracted…

We also make really shitty decisions for white kids (well, Jewish, I can’t really say they are Middle Eastern tho) around here. https://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/oakland/2015/07/09/divorce-custody-refuse-parenting-time-juvenile-home-charles-manson/29905867/

My home, for the next year or so, decidedly does not need a soup tube. However, there may be room for negotiation if I can get Panera’s tomato soup on tap.

The main reason I do not need a soup tube at this point, is that through the beauty of amazon auto-ship and covid-19's impact on both shipping and the food market,…

FFS, the racism and ableism in both her actions, the coverage, and even the comments here on jez just disgust me. 

At least among my white friends, it is being used to stop us talking and instead of dwelling on social media debates to go out and read black voices. That’s what I got on board with anyway. But now I’m a bit confused. Should I just keep myself silent to honor George who will never speak again, or should I share black…

I’m done, as of today, of trying to reach this magical goal of being a perfect ally. I’m not ever going to reach it, and there’s so many contrasting messages out there on how to do it, then you add in intersectionality and different groups having sometimes conflicting agendas, it’s just too fine a like to walk without…

I can think of several who ran for nomination more than once, but I can’t think of any who lost the general and ran again, in recent times.  Nixon would be the last.

Woefully underpaid. Not only do home care workers care for the elderly, they often provide services for disabled children, like mine. Due to myriad reasons, some of which you mentioned, before Covid-19 we were at a 30% shortfall in needed staff for medicaid only, with about 37% turnover in Michigan. My family, hasn’t…

White Knight is a metaphor that I’ve heard as a criticism to white do-gooders who claim their actions are about doing good things for the Asian community, but actually do things that make them feel good and superior themselves,such as adopting Chinese girls. I used “swatting” “batting” and my keyboard being a blunt…

Wow.

I fucking LOVE Duckworth, but she is too new, she needs to keep building some power in the Senate. In fact, I’d prefer Biden not to take a popular Senator at all for VP. Senate is the battle we need.

I’m sorry, I have a question. How did you end up on Jezebel, in 2020, having lived through the election of 2016 and not conclude that misogyny was a huge contributing factor?

I wish I had bought more junk food! Not having food, only ingredients to make food is such a mood right now.
