I’ve had one for about four months, and I love it! I had some wicked cramps and some intermittent spotting the first few months, particularly after sex, but those are pretty much gone, and my periods are so light as to be nearly nonexistent.

There are a LOT of horror stories about insertion online, and of course every…

Clover by Dori Sanders was a favorite of mine as a kid, and Their Eyes Were Watching God is another good one, though definitely not YA. I also recall reading one in elementary school that was about a spunky black girl who got into all kinds of adventures. I recall her being kind of Ramona Quimby-esque, and there was a…

This is a useful tool for those of us who worry too much about the animals in films: www.doesthedogdie.com

My Mishibox was great, too! I hope they keep up that quality, because they nailed it.

Right? Never have I been so pleased to be a California voter.

Try Gwynnie Bee. It’s not quite like Stitch Fix, more like Rent The Runway, but with more everyday clothes. You pay a monthly fee, and they send you pieces, which you can wear as long as you like, then purchase at a discount or return for another piece. It's a pretty good deal, even though the selection is a little…

He did in August: Osage County. It was dreadful. But maybe he just needs more practice. I’m an unabashed Cumberbatch fangirl, so I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Yessssssssssss.

You’re my internet BFF right now, because I love Korean beauty products and have been searching high and low for a K-Beauty box with no success. I can’t wait to give these a shot!

And more importantly, does her sweat smell like cinnamon?

At least, I think I do.

My friend, let me tell you...trust those measurements. In my experience, boobs are liars. Foul liars that you cannot believe. They can fit into spaces much too small for them, like octopuses.

I was under the impression that I was a DD cup. I packed these things into DD cup bras and I believed that they fit just fine.…

I actually really like the phrase “put on going-outside” and I’m going to use it now, because it’s not just clothes, it’s the whole attitude of going-outside that’s hard to muster.

I'm concerned I miiiiight know a little too much about where you can find various things on streaming services. I should go outside sometime!

They're all on Netflix, except for the bonus round. All of the Paradise Lost docs can be found on HBO Go (and maybe HBO Now as well; I'm not sure if it has all of the same content as HBO Go does), and The Staircase is available on Sundance TV's doc club, which is $7 a month, but has a month-long free trial period.…

Wait, wait, wait just a second here. I was taught in sex ed that when you have anal sex, the sperm can run out of your butt and crawl into your vagina and you could still get pregnant that way. Are you trying to tell me that’s NOT TRUE?

"I can feel a strange energy in my sword room" is my new favorite euphemism for pants feelings.

Y'all. Can Mark Strayber come to this, please? You know you want to, Mark.

Samesies! My outdoorsiness extends to getting drunk outside, but I'm feigning interest in an outdoor sport to try and hang out with this dude I dig. I kind of think we might have to just find the thing we hate doing outside the least and do that. Oh, San Francisco. Your beautiful weather is killing me.

Aww! I remember seeing it in the theater. It scared. the. shit. out of me. I completely flipped out and had to leave. I still can't watch it all the way through!
