I’m terrible at Ikea and assembly. Grew up with my dad doing any DIY (and even then not terribly handy) and now live alone. This stuff isn’t actually easy at all if no one ever shows you how to do it, you’re not physically strong, and your coordination is shit (me!)

I think your comment is hilarious and very true, but it’s unfortunate how the replies have turned into ‘shit on Ivanka’s appearance’ hour. She’s a vile person. This article is literally an example of how vile she is in ways that have nothing to do with her appearance. Yet somehow the instinct is still always to tear a…

I too sometimes wish I could opt out of fast fashion, but my wallet doesn’t permit it. What stops the guilt is that the way I wear it, I’m not sure it IS especially fast? I’ve worn an American Apparel skirt for 8 years straight (even if it doesn’t entirely count as fast fashion). A Topshop dress for 7 years (got a…

I bet St. Barnabas is closing soon due to NHS cuts anyways, so problem solved.

I wouldn’t automatically assume that’s wrong, but what proof do you have that it’s mostly dudes? Some dudes may be into it, but I really doubt that would be enough to prop up an entire beauty community. Why would those dudes be interested in tutorials? Surely they would favour photoshoots, which isn’t what this…

Thank you for this very detailed reply!

Maybe try more, thinner layers with no a setting power in between? That’s what I’ve seen queens do! And you’re welcome!

Went to a brewery and day drank in the sun. On the way home, my partner sprinted to Shake Shack and back as a detour to get us dinner. It’s not been a very gourmet night.

New purchases of the week: a ton of Korean skincare, even though the last few things I tried made my skin aaaangry. Gonna take it slow and not give things a second chance if they seem to irritate. Has anyone the Tony Moly I’m Real masks? Any favourites?

I think for thicker brows, you need to put layers and layers of glue on, combed through each time, drying in between. THEN go on to concealer, powder, concealer, powder.

So this is an interesting one. American in the UK here. My partner is kind of politically weird- really progressive on some issues, but ultimately votes conservative, and abstained on Brexit. It causes friction, but ultimately it’s fine because it’s just disagreements about how best to spend government money and…

Finally got into Breaking Bad with my partner, only years after everyone else...halfway through season 2 and fuck me it’s good. Binged season 3 of Kimmy Schmidt recently and I’m not even sure why I still watch this show. It’s gone from quirky to dumb.

I’ve been living Alexandra Savior recently- dreamy nostalgic indie that all sounds like it could be a Bond theme song. Right up my alley. Still deciding whether I like the new Gorillaz album, as there are definitely gems on it.

Super-late reply, but it sounds to me like this guy is convincing *himself* that marriage is great, while secretly seething with jealousy at your freedom.

As a 23-year-old gal, I can safely speak for The Kids and say we’re grieving too.

Have a look at Asos online! Specifically Monki brand sounds like what you’re describing- a bit Scandi cool, but elegant.

I don’t get when being flaky became acceptable. I’m 23 and it’s honestly just seen as a ‘personality’ thing. No, being a bit loud when you’re drunk is a trait; being flaky is rudeness! I have shamed a few friends into acting right by really calmly breaking it down: ‘Hey, that’s a shame you canceled on bowling. It…

Sorry about your beautiful pup. I am an unplanned only child, so I can give that perspective on it? Mum was 41 when she had me (after 5 miscarriages) and it nearly killed her, so siblings were not gonna happen. I did want a sibling growing up, at least when I was young, but looking back, I don’t think it especially…

‘Who is the real Rebel Wilson?’ = we don’t know the Rebel Wilson. It’s suggest she’s a fake, a phony, a liar, a fraud. It literally couldn’t be an easier to prove defamatory meaning. I absolutely don’t see the distinction you’re making. You don’t have to write ‘We declare she is a liar!’ in order for the court to…

I have no idea where that commenter is getting their idea of UK defamation law. I’m in UK law school and have literally just sat a defamation exam, and nothing they’re saying is right.
