Any recommendations for times/places to look for good deals on things like kids’ bikes? No kids myself but the angel tree kiddo I took this year wants a doll, games, books and a bike. Really not sure where to reliably look for specifically the bike portion of that and get a decent quality bike for a 4-year-old girl…

As someone who wants to host all the people at my house all the time, open concept is a requirement as Mr. NotLois and myself embark on the house hunting (now considering building) process. But we’re not looking to do open concept from the entryway back through the house. The layouts we like now is a walled-off den…
Ugh. She’s clearly someone who doesn’t need the money and (as she’s successful) enjoys her work and finds it meaningful. Why would anybody think she’s a good target for an MLM scheme??
Did a story for work on how MLMs target women, wanted to talk to some LuLa sellers. Specifically reached out to ones who mentioned being a “small business owner” on their social media and websites and asked if they wanted to chat about their product, how they got involved, why they think it’s so appealing to women to…
So many women I know (mostly loosely, from my college days) sell this shit. I’m pretty public about my life on social media (I’m a digital and magazine editor so my web presence is pretty necessary for my job) and I post about my work all the time and yet these women who I haven’t seen in person in like 5 years will…
This one looks like something I might actually half enjoy watching instead of watching it in unison with my friends across the country with drunken running commentary a la the first one. Wine will still be required, though. Lots and lots of wine.
The fact that they stuck Gal Gadot in wedges for the Wondy costume drove me fucking nuts when I saw the movie the first time and still bothers me today. SHE HAS TO RIDE HORSES YOU CAN WRITE OFF A 2 INCH CHUNKY HEEL WITH THAT JUSTIFICATION WEDGES ARE COMPLETELY FUCKING USELESS WHY
I think I’d be excited for this movie regardless but because Greta Gerwig made it I’ve been counting down for months. I love her so much.
For some reason (probably because I didn’t want to deal with the content of the book) I put off reading this book for years. Finally read it this year and devoured it in about 2 days. So so good.

Recently did an in-depth report on local domestic violence levels and resources and was surprised at how many people seemed to think it doesn’t happen to rich or well connected or “good” women. Fewer women like that sought services like shelters (at least in my region) because they often had the resources they needed…
I get that, and if he was more reliable about actually responding to things or following through, I wouldn’t care. But he’s just super shitty at it, to the point where it’s caused issues when his mother was in the hospital and no one could reach him because he floats between a bunch of different branches for work and…
I do trust him, nowhere did I say or indicate that I didn’t. We don’t have each other’s cell phone or facebook or email passwords, I don’t expect him to check in with me before he does something. We even have separate bank accounts because once the bills are paid and the money we’ve decided goes to savings is in…
My husband hates FmF but I wish he’d get it for these very reasons but ESPECIALLY since he refuses to ever take his damn phone off silent and has all his text alerts set to not show up on his home screen AND he has read receipts turned off. The only time his phone does ANYTHING is when I, his office or his mother call…
I love Tarantino’s work because I’m just that kind of movie person but have had issues with a lot of his personal shit. This makes me respect him as a person a lot more than I did before.
Thank you thank you thank you for writing this.
My favorite is when someone says “that’s not very ladylike.” Bitch, I have a vagina and identify as female. I am a lady. By definition, everything I do, from using fuck like most people use filler sounds to crying over how cute a kitten is, is ladylike. Fuck you.
In an effort not to justify but at least comprehend, I was thinking about this the other day. I can at least understand (not sympathize but at least wrap my mind around) his power trip of “I’m powerful and rich, I can have these young actresses if I want, all I have to do is ‘convince’ them. I have that much power.”…
I really wish there was an opt out feature. My rapist popped up in PYMK once. Anxiety for DAYS.
They can be hit and miss but I almost always love the candles I pick up from local makers at farmer’s markets. Not really helpful for online ordering but it’s like part of the fall market ritual for me now. Some places also do soaps so you can coordinate the soap and the candle smell for your bathroom and it’s so…

The pain of getting your parents into premium cable shows. I got my mom to read “American Gods” and now we both watch the show. I happened to be at their house on a day an episode was on where there was a lot of (really well done) sex and sitting on the couch with both my parents just like “this.... this is fine” was…
