Burgers and shakes from the best local hole-in-the-wall. Best way to spend a sunny Sunday evening.

Short-term solutions like temp agencies and summer gigs working with kids? Sure, it might feel like just delaying the inevitable, but consider it just giving yourself more time until legit employment comes around.

Word. I don't totally get why the author is describing Beyonce's long battle against female beauty standards like they're some well-known fact. Citation necessary?

Spot-on. But do we have to sell toys that look like white girls for white girls to like them? I liked that American Girls used to be diverse, regardless of their buyer base.

Fake and obsessed with the pseudo-tragedy of wealthy perfection? Sounds like a perfect fit for Fitzgerald to me.

I think it will be a really cool effect, actually. Jay-Z and flapper dresses seems like a weirdly better fit than it should.

A crying baby?

I meant that saying that your heels aren't comfortable, but you wear them because they make you look good, comes off as more high maintenance than claiming you're actually wearing them for comfort, not fashion.

I know people who claim that heels like that are genuinely comfortable for them. Are there people for whom this experience is an honest one or are they bullshitting so they don't seem high maintenance?

Right now, I'm not sure if I'm giving a state test to my students tomorrow or not. I've emailed my principal about it—and re-emailed—and re-emailed—but I genuinely don't know if I should have a lesson for tomorrow or if I'll be administering a test.

Is there a rule of thumb for how much of your monthly paycheck should go towards rent? I'm thinking of moving out of my current two-bedroom with a roommate and moving to a studio close to downtown. (Brand new appliances, washer and dryer in unit, parking provided, it has a balcony, floor to ceiling windows, walking

I'm usually in the "have fun now" camp, just because withholding for future excitement seems like a kind of The Rules-esque manipulation. My sense is that if you're feeling like your sex life needs to keep escalating and escalating to still be interesting, there's something missing in terms of basic sexual

That's interesting that he feels that way even when the people expressing the interest aren't people that you would be interested in. (If I read this correctly, you're all gay guys and it's women that are making the comments?) Whenever I've had experiences where I/a friend feel overshadowed by the hot friend, it's

There are some very reasonable length shorts at Urban Outfitters, Madewell, et al right now—with the catch being that they're high-waisted. (The view being, I'm sure, that if you're not wearing hotpants, you must want some new way for your clothing to be as unflattering as possible.) But if you wear longer shirts,

I vote you go with TyrannosaurusBataar's bottom suggestion, but if not that, do the pink even though it fades quick! (Also, upon Googling, I saw so few examples of natural redheads adding other colors for highlights. It sucks to have so little inspiration to go off of! My sympathies.)

That bottom pic is bomb. I think you're also spot-on that if she doesn't want to bleach, she'll want to go darker with the base shade and then add interest with the tips.

What is this?!

That sounds totally fascinating. I want to read it!

These are really common! I always wondered how they navigated racial differences in this situation.

Why are women more likely to run their adrenal glands into the ground than men? Is it a biological difference, or are you saying that women have more stresses than men that end up having physiological effects?
