Couldn’t speak for Jez editors but I hate everyone except Tom Hiddleston.

I had badly microwaved pizza and just about a 30 minute too ripe avocado for dinner along with two double Bloody Mary’s. You got so worchestire the snot out of those things. Anybody else enjoy food and alcohol? Time is running short. Here’s your chance to be a Jezebel big shot.

This case is even more horrific than it’s being presented as here. The kind of FC Stubblefield practices has been extensively and consistently disproven (ie, in multiple reproducible studies, if conflicting information is presented to the facilitator and the patient, 100% of the time the FC will express the info given…

I can't believe that FC still has a lot of backing and support. This technique has done so much damage. I understand the need to connect with people who have severe disabilities and how easy it is to grasp at straws. My god, so many people have burned by this and it really needs to end.

And she was an ethics prof! That’s the part that kills me.

Yeah, facilitated communication isn’t real. I understand why people are desperate for it to be real, and I do think its practitioners do believe in it, but that doesn’t mean it’s real.

Abstaining from sex with clients is a solid idea for any therapist tbh

Hi, Kate! You look so amazing!

hollywood dicks! limp dicks! murderous dicks! superfluous dick mentions in the rolling stone article!

my favorite thing on real housewives is when they bring in a new cast member and have to pretend it’s all organic. “kyle, do you mind if i bring my friend erika to your dinner party? she’s so wonderful”

That’s the size-up siren - you scream as loudly as possible while looking your “friend” up and down and coming up with a passive aggressive comment about their outfit/hair/SO/etc. It’s a thing in Orange County, cameras or not.

hmm, and see the reason i LIKE this brand is because it’s easier to find in my purse, coat pocket or backpack because of the shape. like, if I’m looking for regular lipbalm in the dark I might grab a pen, eyeliner, mascara or literally anything tube shaped before I get what I want.

I’m now bitter that I didn’t sue Burt’s Bees 10 years ago when their lip balm gave me a horrific oozing mouth rash.

From my time at Sephora, I can tell you it’s entirely common for people to be completely unaware that they have an allergy or sensitivity to a given skincare/cosmetic ingredient- and then to think it’s the product’s fault rather than get tested for allergies. EOS contains jojoba oil and other essential oils. Essential…

But for allergic reactions? I don’t see how EOS could prevent that or how they could be responsible for someone’s allergy. They don’t claim to be hypo-allergenic.

I’ll be honest, I’m not sure it’s mold. I use EOS, and the twisty part can get gunky and gross if you’re not careful, but I think that gunk is just...pocket lint. I have the same issue with regular lip balm if I don’t put the cap on all the way and then carry it around in my purse/pocket for a while.

See, I like the shape because I can always find it easily in the bottom of my purse.

I have used EOS for years and have never experienced any of these things. It works just fine for me and tends to last longer than regular tubed lip balm so the cost doesn’t bother me.

Almost everyone I know uses EOS and I’ve never experienced or heard of bad reactions or mold. The reactions are probably just an allergy to an ingredient. That’s not really EOS’s fault. The mold thing is odd. I don’t understand how that would happen.

No matter the product, someone out there is going to react negatively to it. It really really sucks when that person is you, but it isn’t always the product’s fault. Eos is one of the few lip balms that doesn’t screw up my skin, interestingly. I’ve had horrendous reactions to several other skin products (the last one…
