Any recommendations from those of you who experience episodic mental health issues? I haven’t had any major flare-ups in a few years, but late-November and early-December this year have been unpleasant. I have a strong support system which includes my family physician, and there is a treatment plan back in place. I’m…

Jewellery, particularly earrings and bracelets. I don’t know if I would call it “insulting” so much as “ill-conceived” though. I don’t have pierced ears due to a skin condition and I have small wrists.

Her character did own a Chinese Crested in the sequel...

Are there any recent images of her where she doesn’t have a spray tan? I know with Kylie Jenner we still frequently see photographs where hers doesn’t look as heavy.

Happy American Thanksgiving from Canada! It’s November which means I’m currently marking, applying for grants, and writing my own term papers. I started reading Juno Mac and Molly Smith’s Revolting Prostitutes: The Fight for Sex Workers’ Rights today. I’m enjoying it so far and am looking forward to passing it around…

I would recommend reading examples of bad sex scenes as explanations of what not to do. Or think about the sex scenes that you’ve read and disliked and think about why you disliked them.

I read Ashley Reese’s interview with Cora Harrington this week, and in addition to being reminded about how much I like The Lingerie Addict, I registered I should likely get a bra fitting done. I’m in my early-20s and I avoided having one done as a teenager because (1) I didn’t like the idea of a stranger seeing me…

The sex-texts I exchanged with a partner a few years ago. Thankfully, they weren’t too bad in the grand scheme of things, but they were always funny to re-read the following morning. A few of them search-returned on my laptop the other day when I was looking for some gender studies journal articles.

I submitted coursework that morning, marked midterms that afternoon, and then watched The Love Witch (2016) in the evening with a few cocktails. It was what I wanted to be and more. I’m looking forward to Anna Biller’s next production.

My hair is medium-thickness and is currently about 24 inches with a (natural) dark-blonde/dishwater-blonde base and (unnatural) blonde strobing. Other than the strobing (3 months ago) and a loose-perm (2 years ago) I haven’t chemically-processed my hair at home or in a salon.

I do have a few, which always helps. Thankfully, the transition has been smooth other than getting lost on the bus a few times.

I can participate in Saturday Night Social tonight because I’m actually not doing anything social tonight! I’ve been living in a new city for a few months and am enjoying my graduate program.

RE: Cosmopolitan milking the Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson break-up

The strong response amongst the young-women I knew as a teenager (which I did not share, whatsoever) to him was a key moment for my sexual orientation/identification.

The wedding date rule is that you shouldn’t ask for a plus-one to a wedding date that is a year away if you’ve only been dating three months/a short amount of time. I don’t know if there is any definitive timeline though.

It’s the body language article that got me. That reads like pseudoscience at its finest.

My roommate had a situation where her and her boyfriend of several years had just split and she got custody of their cat. Thankfully, like your situation, it was very clear that it was her cat from the beginning. I imagine it’s more difficult if the custody is in more of a grey-area.

I think Cosmopolitan is milking this break-up, just a touch.

There should be an equivalent dating rule about acquiring a new pet to agreeing to be a wedding date. If the lifespan of the pet is significantly longer than you’ve been together, maybe you shouldn’t be committing to co-ownership of it.

It reminded me of the way teenage boys talked about their teenage girlfriends at parties when said girlfriends were out of earshot. Ugh.
