*whispers* spironolactoooooooone....

That’s what limbo’s for, though whether it functions as a form of purgatory or not kinda depends on who’s talking.

Red eyeshadow, black lipstick, bright Russian prints...

Same, but given the blurb for birth control vs. Ivanka I think it’s the one we prefer.

That was tough, but my tiebreaker was “which has screwed over fewer lives,” and since Wellness is a subset of capitalism...

My intro to K-Drama was a summer camp roommate who’d give these detailed plot descriptions before we went to sleep at night (Endless Love was a major player), and ALL of them involved cancer/organ transplants.

Some of their dental plans are basically nothing. Like, shockingly nothing, among the worst.

Ana Mardoll did a great live read of it on twitter a while back and some of the details were insane. I’m not a huge biography person but they convinced me to check it out.

Finding Nemo is great if you’re a kid, but it’s also very much a parent’s movie. Ditto WALL-E, Inside Out, Up, Monster’s Inc., The Incredibles, and the Toy Story sequels. Kids love and identify with them, definitely, but the main conflicts come from adult fears,* and they age well because you appreciate those themes…

I know franchises are the done thing these days, but honestly the Wrinkle in Time books don’t seem super... franchiseable? Not like Narnia or Harry Potter, at least. The sequels aren’t nearly as well known as the first one, and a lot of the action is conceptual stuff that’s hard to translate.

So if you steal stuff (like the paintings) during the Purge, does that count as income? Do you have to declare looted goods on your taxes?

Claire’s bought them! Now they’re Icing.

My mother took me to the pediatrician’s office (the doctor sternly told me they’d only do first piercings on the earlobes, nothing more), which was clean at least, but they still used a piercing gun and also went way too high.

R.I.P. goopy neon spike earrings.

Ah, see, for basic studs/less “I’m surrounded by 12 year olds” you want Icing, they cater to The Teens.

What’s your go-to storage space for lipstick? Asking for *cough*

Can you imagine being the person who hand washes her clothes for her?

In my head she’s always wearing chic and comfortable loafers, such as you’d find at a casual family dinner in the Hamptons.

Is it just me, or is Oscars fashion slowly getting interesting again? A few years ago it seemed like everyone was in the exact same strapless ballgown, but now it seems like people are ready to try new things and get elegantly weird again (men too), and I love it.

Very different industry, but I know in academia sometimes positions are funded by grants or endowments that specify candidates with X qualities (one of my professors got her tenure track job via a grant that was earmarked for a woman of color). There aren’t enough, but they exist.
