<3 mayyyybeeeeee

I cannot bear any kind of heel at all. The pressure on the ball of my foot makes it feel like the weave of my stocking/sock is being burned into it with acid. And most flats are horrible torture chambers not meant for the human foot. Sneakers in winter, sandals in summer.

im relatively tall and my friends are ridiculously short, i never worked through getting accustomed to heels as a teen/young adult so now I’m just useless in them. plus i like comfort.

I am 27 and have basically given up on heels cuz fuckkkk that noise.

“You need to dress properly - it’s about respect!”

Or still photography. She always looks like she’s 45 year old woman trying to look like a teenager & wearing way too much makeup for someone so young. I say this as a 45 year old woman that regularly tries to look like a teenager.

My main take away is that Kylie's make up doesn't translate well to TV.

Yep. And there were trolls I dismissed who were happy to blame me for my situation and tell me I needed to leave my job, find another and keep demanding more money and benefits. If I don’t take that shit from my extended family (a clueless aunt who married well and maybe worked ten years in her LIFE) what makes them…

Thanks for getting it. It’s easy for many in here to tell me I should leave a job I like, the area and my 82 year-old mother, who cannot WALK without pain, and keep jumping from job to job (I’ve had 5 in 5 years - luckily the latest for a full year - and it IS the best paying) until I get what I want, because it…

They have people to do it for them.

Yes, there are - and they offer very similar compensation and benefits currently. I’ve had and given up three different “work from home” writing and editing jobs because they treated their contractors horrifically and offered NO benefits.

Thanks for assuming you know my circumstances. You do not. I am a highly skilled professional who MUST work an office job (see also where I explained my former industry is in the toilet). I am the ONLY employee. I now choose to live near an elderly parent who needs my care. If I were willing to leave, I could go back…

And that deodorant commercial was made by two inch-dicks at an agency that likely pays women shit because agencies are bro-towns.

Wow and congratulations on getting that job.

Thank you. While I do think it’s important to discuss misogyny and inequality in the entertainment industry, Jennifer Lawrence and her experience is absolutely no comparison to every female in my actual life. I’m so glad this is being discussed. I have worked in recruiting and HR in the past. Women fighting for extra…

THIS. Men are offered a higher salary than women to start with, before any negotiating happens at all. Women who do negotiate tend to be penalized for being “pushy” or “bossy” and so on.

“The solution is that women need to negotiate better” is the troublesome part of this narrative. I don’t blame these actresses for…

The whole “fight harder” thing is really inappropriate. They have people to do it for them. And when I am fighting, face-to-face with an employer, to be the person they pick for an office job it certainly does not benefit me to “fight harder.” Be it for an extra dollar an hour or healthcare (non-existent from my very…

And then Ronny said it would ‘trickle down.’

I am very concerned about the wage gap which clearly exists between me and Jennifer Lawrence.

Holy shit, this bitch’s self-regard! In the first para of that little self-loving blog post, she describes how a former boss she calls “Cunt Chocula” hated her from the beginning, and says, “I can understand why, I’m a hot little blonde with a well-connected family from the Upper East Side of Manhattan.”
