Well.....that particular guitarist may not have been the only of my husband’s former band mates I’ve boned. Definitely a limited band dude sex pool.

Step one involves buying a pleated skirt from Wet Seal.

Am I the only one who doesn’t understand why people need their celebrities to be relatable?

She looks 11.

Hah, I didn’t want to mention I was being told how to feel by I white woman, since I didn’t want to assume based on name whether the author is white or not. But yeah, that came to mind. I’m taking my sweet time before reading LDR article, I don’t want to lose my cool at work. God forbid I whip out the machete, because…

A great comedian once said; “If a man could get laid in a cardboard box, he wouldn’t buy a house [nice car, etc.]” Truthfully, this is a social pressure placed on men to provide the proverbial “nest”.

Which is the actual point of most of these products - spot correcters to help eliminate freckles, hyper pigmentation from scarring, and other discolourations. I think it is super important to acknowledge the cultural context of these products (colourism, etc.) but I am also not willing to demonize all lightening spot…

yes and in the western world there are people who make themselves look like barbies and kens. the outliers are not representative. stop trying to erase our culture to fit your narrative of the Hapless Coloured People who don’t even know that they’re colonised!

this is all very interesting. I had never thought of these products in that light. I know they exist, I am Latina, and I’ve used some with these whitening qualities in the past, but never with any “racial intent”. I’ve always used them because I want my skin even-toned, not necessarily white/er.

The whitening concept is a bit more complicated here in Asia than just wanting “whiter skin”. Whitening creams and products are often used more by people wanting to get rid of dark spots and blemishes (which people are way more focused on here than pimples or wrinkles) vs. getting a whiter effect overall.

Sorry, Emma. It’s your turn now.

Right? Have these conspiracy theorists ever walked into a government building? It is like, 99% bored bureaucrats wasting time online, or deliberately losing your files (DMV) or muttering to themselves and contemplating a desperate act (the Post Office). None of them have the time, energy, or desire to pull this shit.

Please, I live here and just bought a house and got a new job, and moving is a pain.

“secrets of your soul” that cracked me up. It does sound like it was ideal, so I hope it works out for you. I used to have a couple fwb situations and it was nice to have that comfort level and familiarity. We’ve been traveling a lot and that’s when most of the dabbling takes place, so repeats don’t really have much…

OMG, something in this thread is making me smile...

I concede that from your perspective it’s luck, but for me it would definitely be resilience 100%. And honestly, I do think that makes you even luckier.

Brain diarrhea happens to me for things that have nothing to do with banging some dude. I don’t think what you are going through is out of the norm. I don’t do repeats very often so because we’ve had issues with people getting weirdly attached, but I can tell you, people in general seem flakier than ever these days,…

How could I forget Sienna Miller! I think she also survives by being popular in the UK, like Charlie XCX for pop music, but I’m not sure.
