God I miss a good sky top! I’m 5'4", busty as hell and the only place I carry my weight is in my tits and gut. (Chicken legs and flat ass FTW). Sky tops were made for me. Add my nana’s vintage brooch right under the bosom and I’m rockin like an extra in a Jesse McCartney video.

Also - rockstuds are kinda out. Sorrrry Louise, #notsorry

This is something I feel like is repeatedly being left out of the argument and as an art historian and artist, perhaps is the most personal to me - I think it’s a very good piece. Which is why the National Academy is standing behind the artist. Were it some nonsense, no talent bullshit on a canvas it would definitely…

Banana Republic and Banana Republic Factory have some great ones in right now and the 3rd weekend of August they’re 50% off

Oh - the dosage is 2 pills a day but I’ve done fine with just one after week 3. Seems to do the job and eliminating the 2nd pill cut down on the nausea. So keep that in mind!

I legit have been able to still have my wine and cheese on it with zero smoking cravings! Normally when I’ve tried to quit in the past, that’s what does me in. So July was gym + quitting smoking and Diet Coke, August is wine. Ugh.

I’m in the same boat and I HIGHLY recommend Chantix if you can get it or your insurance covers it. My doctor told me it’s been reformulated so there’s less mental health side effects. I’ve been on it 6 weeks and have 100% quit smoking with little effort or angst. And other than a few days of mild nausea, zero side…

Speaking of that, have you gotten to the episode with the “bow hair” yet? Lord.

Can I borrow your hubby to coach my future one on his proposal?

IKR?!?

I still can’t believe it’s not at least 16-18+ to sign up for an account. Granted it’s so easy to fake, but there’s something that skeeves me out about a 7th grader on social media. Go to school! Play outside! Do literally anything else.

A proposal...in a...mall? In New Jersey? Ugh, I’d be so much better at being “rich.”

As an art historian weighing in - in CERTAIN (very limited) instances, do I think that potentially smuggling artifacts out of war zones is warranted, if not the duty, of humanity? Yes. Look at what havoc ISIS is currently wrecking upon the historical sites of Syria. However, it’s a far bridge to gap between a…

Back when she did the Dukes of Hazzard movie, she let the movie studio tie in a line of cowboy boots based on her Daisy Duke character and that’s how the brand took off. I always wondered if the studio still gets a cut.

I believe in one of Andy Cohen’s first books, he also talks about his time at CBS when Mimi screwed them royally out of a Christmas concert or something. He must looooove this sweet revenge!

The Catholic high school I attended was more liberal and gave less “religious instruction” than the public school I attended before that. It actually felt like a relief. (Grew up in a Kansas evangelical hotbed. I heard less about abortion from the nuns than I did from my public school 8th grade history teacher).

I helped my incredibly healthy, polio survivor dad down a small flight of stairs today, much to his chagrin. Pretty sure his survivor spirit would tell Sasse to go fuck himself.

The people that lived next door growing up would leave their garage door open about a foot, so their dog could roam in and out of their (unfenced) yard. He attacked me on 3 separate occasions as a kid, the last one resulting in my dad having to beat the dog off of me with his golf club. I can barely tolerate to be…
