Skincare is so expensive nowadays, is it horribly goopy of me that I expected the prices to be more?

The hummus goop cost MORE than one of my therapy sessions.

Because ~*~aesthetic~*~

Ugh, why is everything so pale and bland looking? I mean, aside from the fact that it’s marketed by pale bland people to pale bland people.

Every time I see an article like this, I wonder “Why am I working when I could just grind up some grass and stick it in a jar of Vaseline and sell it to credulous people who work for startups bloated with Saudi cash?”

There was no planning or thought put into it’s creation. They were all shitfaced picking flowers and smashed it all together “wildly”.

Wild Dandelions huh? Is there such a thing as domesticated dandelions? Should I just start rubbing dandelions from my yard on my face? Or do they have to be from one specific place in Wyoming to “detoxify” And what is lactic acid supposed to do for the outside of your body? I don’t think it’s going to burn…

The FUCK is a wild-crafted dandelion?

GOOP just wants you to stay moist.

Does that even imply teen girls have low standards? If I said Twilight is fine for teen girls, but shouldn’t be the choice for a college’s required freshman read, wouldn’t that generally be understood as being about Twilight and not teen girls? After all, Twilight is literally a book intended for teen girls. It’s…

As someone who is Dessen’s age, I feel fully confident in saying “Sarah, honey, you’ve got to grow up and get over yourself.” Nothing, especially not a minor slight from a college kid, ever pushed me into going on an all-day twitter rant.

Also in Piccoults tweet someone pointed this out

It’s why preteens like her books so much; she acts and thinks like one.

And after that tweetstorm, it is probably a very necessary grudge that has expanded to include Picoult and Weiner as well.

I was particularly disturbed by Dessen’s tweets about how this one young woman’s opinion was ‘mean and cruel’ and had ruined her day. It seems this 50 year old woman has less emotional maturity than the 15 year old kids she writes about.

Yeah, I make just under that. Between childcare,student loans, and a few other bills, I have zero dollar left over at the end of the month. If we have a second kid, it will be my entire take home pay plus $200 to put both kids in full time childcare. My first kid is 3 1/2, so it wouldn’t be that long before he’s in…

I live near Seattle and due in two months. While my primary care is not Catholic or religiously affiliated they unfortunately need to contract with Swedish for birth delivery. Swedish is run by Providence Health, which is a powerful Catholic healthcare system. I just hate that my insurance doesn’t allow me another…

Catholic hospitals can seriously go f*** themselves. I was denied the ability to pursue IVF from the Catholic hospital system with which my OBGYN was affiliated because they only supported “nature conception”. Thankfully I was able to switch to a Lutheran hospital and now I have a beautiful baby girl. I can’t imagine…

So I was asking my friend’s 14-year-old daughter (who happens to be one of my all-time favorite people) about VSCO girls the other day and based on her reactions, I got the distinct impression that everyone makes fun of VSCO girls, too.
