In a weird way though, I find this so much more strange and hard to understand than women who get obsessed with serial killers. Like, those women are obviously very deranged, but I can see the thread to the twisted sort of titillation that would lead someone there. I cannot see the thread to being titillated by

Hell yes. A soaking tub is the only home renovation we’ve invested in and it was totally worth it. Once it’s cool enough out both my husband and I are in there once or twice a week. It’s one of my favorite ways to chill out.

If you’re going to write in a sweeping way about how American culture plays out in our homes, it reaaaally needs to not be this solipsistically focused on people who live in Manhattan. You realize that “people who have moved out of the city or never lived in one” is. . .a LOT of people right? And your statement also

I had a really fortunate bit of good luck, in that I decided to start watching RHONY for the very first time a few months before the election. I reached the 2016 season a few weeks ago, and while it would have been nothing but disturbing before we had a confirmed Biden win, watching them all bicker about the election

All the reasons people want a she shed are the reasons my husband and I love having separate bedrooms. We each have our own space that we can decorate however we want and disappear to when we need to. I wonder if ‘she sheds’ will become less common as more people start to realize you can still love somebody and not

I do enjoy looking through my Pinterest saves to note how impractical a lot of the very pretty setups are. Like, oh. ..that’s a very nice ceramic mug of coffee sitting on a decorative tray ON YOUR BED. And a very nice plant and sculpture on the nightstand leaving no room for an alarm clock, glasses, cup of water, etc.

I am finding this “house tour” series to be both extremely fascinating, and a little bit off-putting in it’s tone. Maybe I’m reading too far into it, but this and yesterday’s “entryway” piece give off this vibe of like. . .wanting these things in your home makes you a slave to capitalism and a silly person who falls

OK, so has anyone else received probably more than 50 emails from Wayfair with some variation of the subject line “Mudrooms are disappearing from homes— here’s why?”

I think there might have been another one set in Post-Katrina New Orleans that was slightly different.

It sounds like you are a wonderful parent to your adopted children. At the same time. . .I cannot imagine a parent giving up their biological child for any reason being considered a “loving act”. Some kids might end up needing to live outside the family home, but that isn’t the same as completely relinquishing your

I’m so glad y’all got in touch with Alice M/ u/Ebbie45 for this post. That woman is a goddamn national treasure and has probably saved literally hundreds of lives via reddit. 

Omggggg that last line ahhhhhh.

I bet if you checked into the morse code translation the knocks said “told ya so, you smug little shit”. ;)

This is the most believable of the stories so far to me. I am 100% sure that if my Grandma arrives at the Pearly Gates and gets told she has the option to stick around and bother her kids at work and comment on her grandkids’ dating choices, she will be ALL OVER that shit. 

It’s fine. I’m fine. Totally off topic, I just called my husband and told him to get excited for some DIY plumbing projects because a stranger with power tools shall never be allowed to cross the threshold of our home again.

This has happened to me. Almost the exact same message, actually. I got a vague form letter response from Doordash and it wasn’t until I contacted them again in a much angrier way that I got an actual response and reassurance this person wouldn’t be delivering any more. I’ve heard many similar stories from other

This is my favorite one so far: this girl lying in a field of poppies, with a caption about how you shouldn’t hurt the poppies.

Right? Who wouldn’t have that that the answer is MORE CAPITALISM?

He actually fucking didn’t. He did sometimes, but several of the accounts involve him just whipping it out without asking first.
