I HAVE NOW! Holy shit, thank you for bringing that to my attention. She confirmed every sneaking suspicion I had about the place. (I moved away from Bellevue nine years ago before they opened The Bravern, and now I’m morbidly curious to see what that town is like now. Because I’m absolutely positive I will be even…

Also, some of us have leases that forbid smoking in our homes, and we interpret that as lighting things on fire, so vape pens are totally cool because open flames are not involved.

I had a friend who needed to always have a boyfriend because (get ready for this one) she couldn’t masturbate. No, really. That was her excuse: She couldn’t have an orgasm unless someone else was giving it to her, so she needed to have a boyfriend at all times so she could have sex and get off. We were in our mid- to…

Oh my god. I’m reading through the drink menu of this place. Now, I like a good fruity rum drink. For my birthday for the past few years, my aunt has taken me out for lunch and bought me a drink as big as my head with about seven shots of liquor and a ton of fruit juice at a local Mexican restaurant. This shit? Holy…

And it’s in Bellevue, not Seattle, which makes everything about this whole thing even worse.

I’m at the point where I don’t want him to resign over sexual misconduct. I’m not sure I want him to resign at all. I want his ass nailed to the wall and prosecuted for obstruction and treason.

Huh. My palette has Fremont spelled correctly. But, yeah, pick something else. Bridge Troll, Aurora, Golden Gardens, I will probably think of five more good names after I’ve had coffee. It’s a nice sandy color. Call it Sand Point.

No clue. This is going to be my first experience with them (well, I did get a duo in a Birchbox a couple of years ago, but that doesn’t count because I couldn’t get the damned thing open to even try). It’s going to be weird for me because I usually use loose shadow, though, so I won’t really know how they go on…

It has Not a Perfume, Sunny Side Up, and Mmmm. I’m intrigued by Sunny Side Up and okay enough with Not a Perfume to be willing to get a trio that includes it, but I absolutely love Mmmm! Which is weird because I normally stay away from both gourmands and perfumes sold at Sephora. The additional funny thing is that the…

Yay, beauty thread! My Sephora order showed up: The Gimme Some Bold Lip set, a Juliette Has a Gun fragrance trio, three lipstick point perks, and one fragrance point perk. I used my $20 VIB code and got all of that for something like $36. I’m okay with spending that money! I love lipstick. Especially minis of Sephora…

Cats will never surprise you by turning out to be assholes because they never try to hide it. Not even as kittens. Their core essence is asshole. It’s like suddenly finding out Andy Dick groped some woman before he vomited on her. The only surprise would be the exact location it happened.

I started to be very very confused why that place would open in Seattle when there are other perfectly fine pizza places. Like Pagliacci (holy hell, I miss their chopped salad). Then I saw what neighborhood: Ballard. And on NW Leary. Oh. Now it makes sense.

I started using it once I realized that you can use higher cooking temps with it than regular butter. And if you don’t want to take the time to make it yourself, Trader Joe’s has it for a reasonable price. I try to keep a jar of it on hand for days like today when I don’t feel like doing everything from scratch.

Okay, your first paragraph just talked me into getting my ass up off the couch and making some popcorn. My secret ingredient: Instead of oil, I use ghee.

Okay, sure, let’s say my brother had gotten his childhood dream of having seven kids. He’s blond and blue-eyed. His sons look like a white supremacist’s wet dream. He is also teaching his sons that you vote in every election, Paul Ryan is a piece of shit, everything the current administration does is an affront to…

I think convincing doctors to do unwarranted procedures qualifies. And after he went into the hospital and got away from her care, he pretty much immediately got better, which tells me she was doing *something* to keep him sick. In these cases, it usually takes a while for details of what that *something* is, so I’m…

If this is anything like the Gypsy Rose Blanchard case, there was a shit ton of doctor shopping and falsification of records. Find the right overworked doctor willing to take you at your word, and you can get just about anything you want. (If you have HBO, the documentary Mommy Dead and Dearest is about the…

I would vote for neither because I’m a Pacific Northwesterner to my core. Kyle MacLachlan all the way.

He’s also involved in a winery in Sonoma. That’s the Dreaming Tree stuff.

This is super weird. I just tried searching for it again. It’s still not coming up for me.
