A thousand times yes! Not sure if it was the extra pandemic pounds, or the recent unilateral mastectomy, but I want loose, comfortable and easy. Hope it’s ok to post a link to HuffPost, and this is very on point.

Elizabeth Warren!  She famously said that Pond’s is her secret, and her skin does look damn good.

I see your point about allergies, but you used the phrase, “they’re bad for you” without qualifying that said badness would only apply if you’re allergic. Same goes for peanuts and strawberries.

Petrolatum (Vaseline) is made from plankton fossils.  It’s vegan.  It’s also used by dermatologists to speed healing of wounds.  Also, preservatives are preferable to microbes that might grow in the product and cause bacterial or other infections of the skin.

Talk about a gateway drug! Since using Lip Smackers (competitively) in 7th grade, I have been addicted to lip balm in some form. If I’m not wearing it or lip gloss or something, my lips actually hurt.

I’m not sure where you got your information, but according to the cosmetic chemists at The Beauty Brains, none of this is true. Mineral oil and petrolatum (Vaseline) are fine, and petrolatum in particular is recommended by dermatologists to speed wound healing. It is actually made from plant fossils, so is also vegan,…

I’m going in for breast cancer surgery in a couple weeks, and am already planning to do my eyebrows. I need some color, but might add hair gel for extra hold.  Why the hell not?

Not to mention the whole look.  

Thank you for citing relevant case law. As lawyers know, the text of the Constitution is just the starting point. Courts have been interpreting it for decades, and those holdings are both instructive and binding. Two more thoughts: as someone else noted, it seems to me that the judge was more worried about being…

I agree, and those who tend toward naturopathic and homeopathic beliefs also tend to be anti-vax, anti-mask and even covid deniers.  Not saying any of that applies to her, just that they are often associated.

I don’t have kids, but I’m going to do all these things anyway.  Thanks!

I have a fairly new BlackBerry (yes, manufactured by TCL) that I bought a little more than a year ago on Amazon, unlocked, and it was around $200. I took it to T-Mobile and got a new Sim card for free, and have had no problems whatsoever. It runs on Android, with all the Google apps, and has a touchscreen and a real…

“I ain’t got the time, and my daddy thinks I’m fine.”  Anyone who’s heard “Rehab” knows her father enabled her addiction.

Maybe it was hard for even you to breathe because you’re a smoker?

Such an important reminder. I first started this practice after reading Rick Hanson’s “Just One Thing.” He calls it “take in the good,” and it means noticing a good thing that is happening, and sort of marinating in it for a bit. The practice has gotten me through some tough times. It works.

Please correct your first sentence: the case wasn’t “lodged” by the victim. It was filed by the prosecutor. Crime victims do not bring charges or prosecute criminal cases; they are actually only witnesses (I’m a former prosecutor). It is important for people to understand this, as well as the fact that victims cannot…
