I haven’t tried Essie’s glitter polishes, but their other polishes seem to chip easily, as all polishes seem to these days (except the ones I import from Asia, which probably have chemicals in them that will make me infertile or something). Are Essie’s glitter polishes forgiving even if they chip or are they more chip…

I don’t think the “sleeping your way into” ______ thing is on par with sexual harassment, at least not on the part of the lower level person in that relationship. The framing is problematic. Really, if people in power use that power to get sex in exchange for advancement, then the powerful person is the harasser.

He nearly managed to stay in office. The two founders of Times Up, a group created to sue powerful people and corporations for sexual harassment, advised him on how to stay in office and smear his accusers because he is a powerful Democrat and policy-wise is good for women. Republicans don’t have a monopoly on…

In addition to everything else, move to Oregon, which decriminalized drugs, and then get some LSD or MDMA assisted therapy. Its so much more effective (with therapy!!!) than everything else in a tiny fraction of the time. Sort of reprograms the traumatized brain, which is overly sensitive to threat and not sensitive…

Get some people together and figure out how to out them. Otherwise, politics is full of these people. And work with some smart people in politics. Timing is key. 

Yeah. Libs don’t understand that you need different groups to do different things toward the same goal and they need to coordinate with each other behind the scenes. One group that takes powerful people and corporations to task for sexual harassment and assault and a separate political organization that works with the…

Well, no one said she had good taste. Fourteen years with Cuomo, this guy, and who could forget her Kwanzaa cake?

Curious what it costs to race in Antarctica. Just a normal trip there starts around $10k. I can’t imagine the cost of bringing a Porsche and getting from the ship to the ice. 

Same, but I save additional $ by keeping the nip bottles and refilling them at home for the next time I fly. No one seemed to care. I wonder if the jig is up now. I’m not sure how to get through a long flight in those miserably small seats without it. But I would rather go through that stone cold sober than give those…

You can put some netting over your blueberry bush. Even if you just drape it over the bush itself (rather than create it structure over it, which doesn’t look nice in a yard), it limits the birds to the few outside of the net, and you can eat the rest.

My dog waits until she hears which food I am getting into before deciding whether to get up and come over and beg. 

Okay, rad. Now do one of these for the plum harvest. 

Any fancy food served to donors that we shoved into our pie holes as quickly as possible the moment the donors left the event.

I’m so glad he’s basically an influencer now. Too bad he didn’t use 98% of his executive power when president to actually do anything that would help.

My Feldenkrais instructor taught me how to run in a way that ensures less impact ends in my ankles and knees. Its a good improvement to my form. I highly recommend 1-3 Feldenkrais sessions for any runner concerned about whether they are running in a manner that does long term damage to knees.

A public health physician who studies sugar clarified the whole “no sugar added fruit juice is as bad as soda” thing. Its largely true, because our bodies break down sugar in two ways: a healthy way for a little sugar and an unhealthy way for too much sugar. Soda and fruit juice both inundate your body with a lot of…

What I want to know is if there are ways to encourage businesses or others to require proof of vaccination. I bought tickets to a large, now sold out outdoor concert pre-pandemic that was delayed because of the pandemic. Now it is back on the schedule for October 2021 (instead of May 2020) and they have moved it…

Ack! Stop with these sales tax holiday articles! Or tell people what they need to know. It is well documented that stores raise prices on sales tax holidays, so you think you are getting a good deal, but you aren’t! On top of that, rather than your money going to taxes, which supports thing like schools and fire…

Are the people divided over what is really just a city density issue? I would park like this in NYC or somewhere with similarly dense population and with extremely scarce parking, but never in a city that isn’t dense where I have a reasonable chance of finding a bigger spot. 

When I want a little fancy snack, I do this, but I use a tiny brie wheel from Whole Foods that is about the diameter of a silver dollar, part of one sheet of puff pastry from the freezer, and a tiny dollop of jam. And just the toaster oven. Its the best!
