When I was much younger I had a friend who started getting tattooed at 18. Her first tattoo was a large piece on her thigh. She went to a very popular and talented artist in our town to get it done, and it took a few sessions. I remember him being super creepy with her. He gave her a huge discount, then he started…

Okay this is interesting because I have the same thing. I got sick before Christmas, felt crappy, it got way worse right before new year’s, was terrible a few days, then took like THREE WEEKS to stop coughing phlegm and having to blow my nose every hour. It just wouldn’t end!

Yep. I teach high school and am still in my 20s so I’m (god, I can’t believe I’m about to write this) pretty “meme-literate.” I saw this meme circulating and felt that it was very clearly a stupid joke. Its really funny how the older generations took it seriously.

Just reading the second letter made me angry. I’m so done with the wedding industrial complex and everything that comes with it. Begging for money upon marriage is the dumbest and most obnoxious thing people can do. I also don’t understand why we shower the bride and groom with money, when they’re about to get to live…

Something I am very thankful for is how my mom taught me, at a very young age, to say “no” clearly and loudly if I am ever uncomfortable. And I even remember her explaining to me that women are conditioned to be nice and accommodating, but that can get us in serious trouble sometimes. She started telling me this,…

Yeah, I’m waiting for a post on it from Jez. Also I just read an Atlantic article called “The Humiliation of Aziz Ansari and its...its a real doozy. Hoping to hear from Jez about it.

Just new boot goofin’.

I just moved to the mid-Atlantic from Florida. I moved for economic opportunity and to get the most out of my youth before I turn 30. I was having the time of my life in my new town until this past week. I am so jealous of my family in FL right now.

Glad to see I’m not the only one who thinks this. I always feel like I know so many truly incredible women who are full of life with so much to offer, but cannot say the same for the majority of men I’ve known in my life.

Yep! Born and raised in Miami, lover of all things coquito.

That is NOT authentic coquito, there are no egg yolks in coquito. Here is a good, basic recipe:

Coquito, a Puerto Rican holiday drink very similar to Egg Nog, is vastly superior.

Coquito is soooo good, and pretty easy to make.

Definitely not a “family holiday.” I am spending time with my family in my hometown for Christmas but made sure to book a flight back in time for New Year’s Eve. My parents go to bed at like 9:30, I definitely don’t feel like I need to be with them for NYE.

Yeah, as a 20-something, I kind of cringed when the writer referred to herself and all of her 20-something siblings as “old.”

I have been thinking the EXACT same thing about Stassi! It would be amazing if she got on RHOBH as a full blown cast member...I could even see her finally nabbing some rich husband and going the full nine yards. Would be amazing. RHOBH was sooooo good its first few seasons, now its boring. I watch it, but its more…

After the 2016 election, Bill Maher had Ana Marie Cox (I think) on and she said “race solidarity trumps gender solidarity” and that pretty much sums it all up. White women vote based on their race. Its horrid, but its the truth.

I actually think we need to talk about this more. I feel like its based on our dependence on capitalism that Americans’ reaction to anything unpleasant is to just throw money at the problem. I have no problem with GoFundMe’s set up to help with medical costs, flying a family member overseas, a pet’s vet bills, etc,…

I agree, she totally voted for Trump. Stassi is such a terrible person its overwhelming sometimes. I am a huge VPR fan and I have tried to listen to her podcast, but she is just so awful that I can’t make it through. The first episode I listened to she talked for 20 minutes about how she’s a total catch and doesn’t…

Ariana is my queen. I bow down to her.
