Right?! I mean, she herself has admitted that some of the work was bad. Her weirdass lips are NOT aspirational for most women.

Exactly. She the first woman with fake hideous distracting lips. It must hurt. I can’t even imagine.

I mean, she’s well known for her lips in that she was one of the first major celebrities to be known for having absolutely horrific, botched work done on her lips. That really doesn’t make me trust her products, tbh (and I’m saying that as someone who has lip filler, so it’s not like I’m against getting work done...…

anus mouth but yeah pretty much the same thing lol

You and your friends are much nicer than mine. We just call her Hemorrhoid Mouth.

For nearly 25 years (when her robust and ever-mutating mouth first captivated us as 20-somethings watching Melrose Place), she has been known among my extended group of friends as “Lips McGee.” To her point, I have to say she might be the original pop culture celebrity who made “What in the Actual Fuck is going on…

“Lip pioneer” is making me cackle uncontrollably.

Girl STFU. Quarter of a million people are dead from a disease with no cure, that a shocking amount of people refuse to believe exists, and you’re trying to corner the Kylie Jenner market 4 years late. It’s SO Lisa Rinna but that doesn’t make it any less absurd.

I pinkie swear this isn’t a “poor lil me” rant, but I came to the same realization after I became a homeowner (inherited my grandmothers’ house). It’s not even some sprawling suburban mcmansion, it’s a lovely small city home that you would think would be manageable. Nope. The stress over the maintaince is something…

Mr E and I cannot wait to ditch our suburban house for an apartment. Any apartment. I am sitting in the middle of a destroyed kitchen, waiting for new countertops to appear today. In the process of removing the sink the hot water shutoff valve failed, so water flowed (geysered) all over our hardwood kitchen floors.…

And don’t forget property tax! Here in Seattle, that’s become enough of a burden (in a state without income tax) that my sister and her husband are considering selling their home to get out from under the ever-rising taxes.

As someone who has updated my kitchen, leveled my house, made a number of electrical repairs, hired a lawn guy and signed a gutter cleaning contract, all within the last year, and is now getting quotes to restore my windows, I’ve decided that to enjoy being a homeowner (at least of an older house) you just have to be…

It’s been pushed down our throats for years that buying a home is a great investment and key to achieving the “American dream”, but it’s increasingly a myth.

We became renters six years ago after three decades of home ownership. No regrets. 

I sold my home and moved into a rental about 6 or 7 years ago because the relentless upkeep, costs and inconveniences that people don’t think of until they become a home owner just reached a point of outweighing any ownership benefits. I couldn’t be happier with the decision. I invested proceeds from the sale but…

I’ve owned various houses since I was 22 (I’m almost 40 now). I AM SO DONE. It’s always worry, always fixing something, always landscaping or repairing or upgrading. I DIY it most not because I necessarily want to save money, but because getting a contractor in to do ANYTHING is damn near impossible, even before the…

It’s not throwing money away if it works for you.  

At this point if I bought a home I’d be paying the mortgage until I die so why not just pay rent and never have to pay out of pocket to replace a water heater or, well, anything? Find a good place to stay with a responsive landlord and it’s gravy.

I know renting is technically like throwing money away but not having to deal with all the maintenance shit of one’s home just keeps sounding nicer and nicer. 

Ok. This is a bridge too far. What is this Gilbert Grape bullshit? I know this probably will get lost in the grays, but my brother has autism, and I made a short film with an autistic character in it so that we could increase representation. I went to great lengths to find an actor ACTUALLY ON THE SPECTRUM to play…

“watched documentaries and YouTube videos to prepare”
