I took one of the “mild” drugs and had to get my eyes checked every six months to make sure the “mild” drugs weren’t making me go blind.

Yep, methotrexate (a chemo drug we get to take weekly in small doses) is hell on the liver. When my doctor first put me on it, I had to get a weekly blood test. Now I can just do quarterly, yay! (Turns out I have an iron liver.) And, yeah, it’s always cute when someone moans about being achy from the flu or having a…

He is so gorgeous. I rewatched parts of The White Queen just to enjoy his beauty.

Who needs to hear anything when I can just look at Aneurin Barnard?

Scene of recent flooding, army drafted in, lass from Lancashire strolling by wearing pyjamas with fag and wine in hand. Sums us all up.

If you’re not eating something because you don’t like it, then you’re absolutely not who she’s getting at in this article. Chill out, she wasn’t getting a dig at you.

At it’s extreme, this type of obsession with “clean eating” is called orthorexia. It’s a recognised disorder. When people get so involved in a certain type of restrictive diet, such as paleo, it can be really harmful. But often it’s not picked up, and people who are obsessive are celebrated as super-healthy role…

Not sure if this counts, but...one evening I was getting ready for a big date and wearing some new clothes...skinny black pants and a bright pink satin shirt. I thought it was pretty cute. I came downstairs to ask my mom’s opinion. My uncle was over for dinner. He looked me up and down and said... ‘Well...you don’t…

Go those ladies!!!

2 weeks after I had my 2nd son and actually had already lost most of my weight my mother and I are at Target (I'm holding my infant)and she says (she had 8 children but has never weighed more than 105lbs) “WHEN are you going to lose weight? Why haven’t you started exercising!?” 2 older women (strangers) walked up to…

I care about the vagina jokes because they’ve become a really tired and mandatory way for shitty comedies that want some of that Bridesmaids coin to signal that they’re an ‘edgy’ comedy about girls ‘talking real’ and acting ‘just like the guys’. Hack screenwriters do girl comedies with half assed vagina jokes and…

I miiiight watch this if its playing on my trans Atlantic flight in the spring if I'm out of podcasts and my kindle is dead.

Dakota Johnson has comedic talent on par with a piece of wet cardboard.

She did a spectacular interview on NPR about dyslexia and learning disabilities, which she and her children have struggled with.

THIS IS POSSIBLY MY FAVORITE POST IN JEZ

The entire album is just so damn good.

I have a Pistol Annies Pandora station that also happens to play the UBER classics frequently (Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, etc.). It’s my favorite. It’s really a shame the female artists aren’t getting played on the radio. The lyrics are overwhelmingly more nuanced than most of what’s being promoted right now.

I agree. Great song with great lyrics. I also love “I Got the Boy” by Jana Cramer.

“Biscuits” is a great song. And because it’s not getting played on the country stations in town, the station managers at the indie rock station and the college station (who actually would have played it some, no matter what) have both put it on heavy rotation.

I think this is the country music song that I hear when I go to this bar and every time I hear it I cringe at how bad it is. If this is what country music has come to then god help it.
