My husband has long hair, and has had it for decades- so lots of practice, but even he struggles. Our daughter has super curly hair. But like, he practices. And sometimes it’s not perfect, and that’s ok. I see some women (sometimes!) undermining their SO but immediately undoing whatever they’ve done and redoing it,…

I bought a pair of LK Bennett shoes about 10 years ago and they were the MOST UNCOMFORTABLE shoes that I ever had. And I have tortured my feet extensively over the years.

“I just look at legal”

If they removed all reviews that are hearsay, wouldn’t the site be just a logo and some banner ads?

You have this internet stranger’s permission to cut off toxic people who hurt you.

I need you all to know that it’s snowing in New York and I’m in a tropical paradise in Puerto Rico for a long weekend by myself because #treatyoself.  Splurged in a great hotel, got upgraded at check-in, watched sunset on the beach with a mojito, currently on a date with myself at a fancy restaurant. Once you get…

Should have had me for a teacher. You would have had a blast *and* learned something useful.

Hey Jezzies! I have an auntie win to share! (I’m the one raising my nephew).

My nephew was picked as student of the month in his class for how much he’s improved in reading! He’s in first grade. He came to me in August barely reading more than his name and simple things like “cat”*, so it’s been one of our big…

Some little shithead was hitting my six-year-old kid at recess. We talked to the teacher and the principal multiple times to no avail. (We don’t know who is doing it, your child only mentions it after-the-fact, etc)

I recently stood up for equal pay during a contract negotiation, in particular the fact that dividing new starts in six month periods meant half the intake will get no pay increment while half would. Come a month later my issue becomes official negotiation policy so we all get equal treatment. I will also be making a…

Let’s make it an Amendment.

. Back when my brother was in the Marines there were few women in the Marines and he noticed two distinct types of women in the marines.

I’m drinking non-alcoholic beer. #PregLife There’s way better options than even a few years ago, which is great. Somehow non-alcoholic Heineken is better than normal Heineken which is honestly just embarrassing for them.

If it helps the concept, in Ireland we count spring from February 1st, called Imbolc or Brigid’s Day. It’s about halfway between the solstices and the snowdrops and crocuses start to bloom around then. And our weather pretty much operates on a system like “Roll a dice, 1, 2, or 3, it’s rain, of increasing intensity;…

They say cats are more sinister than dogs, but I think that is unfair.

Yup

I am fascinated by the conservative shitstorm about AOC. And I agree, what it really boils down to is they are scared shitless by her political potential. And I’m not even particularly a fan of hers or think she’s the progressive messiah her fans seem to think she is, but I know a natural politician when I see one. She…

Did you click on the Ingraham link (which went to a tweet) to take a look at the Times Square billboard? It’s the algorithms, and it’s why AI is very far off from supplanting human intelligence and intuition.

I’m so tired of hearing discussions about her looks.  She is young, has a lot of energy, and is bringing obscure political topics to the forefront.  I studied things like marginal tax rate and gerrymandering and never understood why they weren’t more discussed.  I’m also really annoyed that a topic like investment for…
