No, it was editorial. It does look good on my resume, but I’d say they got the better deal for sure. I’d already been a newspaper/freelance writer for nearly a decade when I started the gig (they didn’t reveal the pay until I’d beat out other applicants in a very time-consuming application process). I liked the

Because some angry tech guys probably got together and screamed “Bu-bu-bu-but it’s not fair! It’s reverse sexism! What about the mens and baby mens? What would you do if we started a boys-only club for STEM?” (Not realizing, of course, that it basically already is a boys-only club and that’s the whole point of the

But, I mean, what about men who “believe” that stoning a woman who was raped is not just completely acceptable but condoned by their god and religion? Do you respect that?

Even religious beliefs that are flat-out wrong?

I liked Aidan more when I rewatched recently and realized Pete, his dog, is a Brittany spaniel. I have a Brittany now and he’s the sweetest pup ever. That fact makes me dislike Carrie even more, because she only barely tolerated Pete.

Yes, my sis-in-law is a family attorney and she deals with stuff like this all the time. Situations range from completely amicable to must-look-at-puppies-now depressing.

From an interview Tiegs did with Today: “You know, I want to be thought of as a nice person — thoughtful, sweet, kind, good. I really do. I really think that kindness is not always easy [emphasis added].”

I saw Antony & the Johnsons in L.A. with a trans friend years ago. I can’t remember where, but it was such a marvelous evening. I do remember Anhoni being a bit shy on stage, but her voice is so unique.

I freelanced for a high-profile blog for a spell and it was the same situation. They paid chump change while the founder, who couldn’t write to save his life, raked in the cash and perks.

Any writer who would do that ruins it for the rest of us.

I’ve gotten $1 a word writing for my alumni publication. I’d like to think Vogue would pay a bit better than that?

I have had a lot of luck with chemical peels (I buy them on Amazon) and Retin-A (purchased from Canada, because U.S. prices are insane). If you can afford it, Fraxel Re:Pair removed a lot of sun damage I had from growing up in Southern California.

Although, I know some folks who bought a house that featured a front yard with a massive rock that had been hideously painted. It was quite a process to have the paint removed (and if I remember correctly, specks of paint still were spattered all over the thing).

I know a street artist who vehemently defended this a-hole graffiti artist who sprayed a boulder in Joshua Tree. He argued all over his social media that graffiti art should be anywhere and everywhere, including the wilderness, and that the “art” enhances the natural features. So many dumbasses agreed with him.

I’ve seen this hiking in heels crap too! Tight skirts and full makeup too. I mean, whatever floats your boat but my feet ache after a big outing and I have legit hiking boots strapped to my hooves.

I was an unpaid extra at the MTV Movie Awards many years ago. It was exhausting. They made us stand around for hours and hours, we had to don cheap-ass oversize white t-shirts for one performance, and I had to threaten to make a scene when I got my period and they wouldn’t let me leave to use the restroom. They
