Or you could opt for the far superior Montreal bagel.

I match but no one ever responds. I’m convinced they’re actually bots. For what it’s worth, I’m a straight woman in Chicago.

I live in Avondale and the ice cream truck parks right in front of my house every day from 8pm-8:30ish. Maybe longer but I don’t really notice the song anymore, just consider it part of every other city noise. Avondale is pretty chill though, what with the Latino/Polish population. On the other hand, Crain’s just…

I work in advertising. This is correct.

I literally can’t think of a more irrelevant book to publish right now.

Agreed. As a legal immigrant, I too am not offended one bit by those who came here undocumented.

Chad is a tool, but I found his unquenchable appetite for deli meat completely relatable.

I did! It was the most thrilling part of my entire day.

I’m really waiting for an in-depth profile of the most enigmatic cast member in Bachelor history: Jorge, the bartender.

My dad used to wake us up on Saturday mornings by blasting Led Zeppelin’s “Immigrant Song” at full volume. Good times. Thanks to him, I kill it at music trivia night.

Quick question: How do I even get a guy to text me “hey”? Asking for a friend. *Sobs quietly into her pillow*

Now that you mention it, he did talk to us a lot about New Orleans! Especially about his mother’s family and how hilariously genteel they were. For those who are curious, he’s the only man I’ve ever met that can pull off a tropical green suit.

True story: I stayed in the same hotel as Sal when I was in Rome. My family and I were sitting at a table next to him on the hotel patio. He overheard my father-in-law talking about possibly booking a tour and Sal jumped right in to give us recommendations. He was with his partner/boyfriend/husband(?) and they were…

"It's not common in Peru." -My go-to excuse for anything I don't want to do but don't really care to explain my personal reasons for not wanting to do it.

I'll talk to my Starbucks baristas about race the day they manage to get my non-Anglo name right.

To everyone clutching their pearls and throwing out long screeds about meritocracy and talent: No one is asking you to read shitty writers. Just diverse writers. And if you equate the two, you might want to ask yourself why you think that is.

Right? Any producer worth their salt would've hired a bunch of extras/actors to clap specifically when Britt was mentioned. Total rookie mistake.

I made the mistake of writing two sentences instead of a dissertation on the nuances of how the media reports on crimes depending on the race/gender of the perpetrators. BIG MISTAKE. I don't feel like getting into an internet fight. This is a reminder of why I mostly try to make pithy comments on pop culture articles…

Yeah, I was thinking of putting it in quotes and I probably should have. I know mental illness has huge social stigma and I don't want to downplay it. Lately, though, it's being used to explain away violent behavior in (some, #notall) white criminals while minorities are rarely given that opportunity (despite research…

Wow, you seem to have made a whole narrative in your head about me and my assumptions, and I'm sure anything I say will probably not do anything to change your point of view. But, for those who are less vitriolic: 1) I never said young men aren't affected by mental illness. To be honest, I actually think the number of…
