Damnit, Al. I’m so pissed about this. ALL OF THIS. He has been a good senator, his staff have been good, his office has been approachable and helpful. He had a policy where if you were a Minnesotan in DC, he held an open breakfast once a week with his staff his constituents could attend and talk about their issues. I…

Make the jump. I hated most lipsticks on me and then I went purple and found out, oh, everything else was the wrong color. Now it’s my default, even for business functions.

There was a brief moment where the 60s were A THING again, and I found lots of jewel tones but NONE of the purple. All greens, reds, orange, blues if you were lucky. The decorating rage was strong.

Sage green and deep purple look soooo good together. I’ve got lead glass bottles in those color, and some bronze backings for my nightstands.

My bedroom was painted “stormy night” and all my accessories are in varying shades of gray and eggplant. I had good luck for about 6 months and then stopped finding anything darker than lavender. So all my winter sheets are a beautiful deep purple, and my summer sheets are slate gray.

I don’t brielieve I could munster the willpower to stop at just one.

“My wife” must be some sort of comprehensive news service that beams statistical information directly into his brain. Or he’s a bloviating narcissist who doesn’t know how words work. One of the two.

I’m shocked, shocked, they didn’t blame that mysterious intern that keeps doing this at Urban Outfitters. And Forever 21. And Zara. And Disney.

It is possible to find larger bralettes, it’s just difficult. I’ve had good luck with some UK companies, and while your bust is considerably *ahem* smaller than mine, a couple of my brands of choice have your size. Wacoal and Freya both make bralettes that should fit, and the former can be found a Nordstrom or Macy’s.…

Hello, fellow 32G. I’ve found my best luck getting bras from the UK, but there’s always a crap shoot of finding something that will fit and having to mail it back. I’ve found a few places willing to give good feedback on measurements so you can lessen that risk, but it’s never 0. My new mission is to learn how to make…

The ALF is fucking nuts. All the shit anti-choice people do, the ALF do to vets and researchers. Including car bombs, firebombs, and staking out peoples’ homes. They once kidnapped and branded a journalist.

the medical industry, government, food companies, and the pharmaceutical industry do not have your best health interests at heart.

Polanski is the worst. I’m in the middle of relistening to that podcast while I work at night, and every time I’m refreshed of just what a horrible piece of garbage Manson was.

I would see a movie about how absolutely vertiginously batshit the Manson cult was. There’s a bunch of horrors in that story that don’t even involve the murders, and it would go a long way to helping people understand just why Manson was a monster. The reduction of the story into “flower child Manson murder cult”…

Monarchy is Europe is like an embarrassing family heirloom no one wants but everyone feels obligated to keep, even though we’re pretty sure it’s infested with some kind of horrible bedbug and it’s never been cleaned. Like rotting hair art, or that vial of your great-great-great-grandfather’s stool sample.

In 2011, Laurent...lost his diver’s license after being caught speeding at 20mph above the limit through Brussels in his Fiat Abarth Punto.

Never have I been as disgusted with a city as I was with DC the few times I’ve been there. I went for an evening walk to a restaurant with some friends. It took us near the White House so we did a little detour. As we walked by a park I saw a bunch of shapes moving in the grass.

“I don’t understand why women wear high heels, I don’t find high heels sexy at all. You should wear flats.”

I try to remember that these are women who grew up having to play the game by a very specific set of rules in order to participate in society. It’s ingrained. We didn’t even have words to describe some of the things we understand now.

I’ve always loved Ol’ Hitch’s movies and took delight in his trailers, but everything I learn about the man when he wasn’t having conversations about work with other men...it’s not a pretty picture. I find solace in the fact that it’s easier to enjoy the work of the problematic dead, but fuuuuuuuuuck was this guy…
