I wore some sticky jewel things on my face recently for fun and flung them around my bedroom before passing out drunk. I found a black one stuck to my leg today and in my sleepiness thought it was a tick. I threw it off and I know it's going to happen again. I never learn.

HALP I HAVE A METALLIC RASH AND IT’S SPREADING VERY ARTISTICALLY

I was about halfway through writing a response before I caught the sarcasm.

Far be it for me to generalize, and I know that there are certainly exceptions to this, but despite all of the love and respect I have for straight folk I sort of tend to notice that when I go to weddings in the Queer community there’s definitely more of a “Hey isn’t it just neat that we’re allowed to get married”

Favorite (heartwarming) gift story: One of my high school classmates married his longtime boyfriend last summer. He’s an attorney, his now-husband is a pharmacist. They’ve shared a gorgeous household (read: gay male expensive taste and unlimited budget) for 11 years.

Also note that the line “gifts should obviously never be expected” is a WAY late edit that didn’t appear in the original. Must have been added days later as an ass-covering measure.

That's why I clicked thru. I'm looking for a pair of Rachel Comey booties for like... $75. I realize how unlikely this is, but what are we without our dreams?

How silly of me to forget! Or maybe its just that it’s ok and justified when you want to do it, but bad and mockable when other people do it? Is that how it works?

Not a picture book. A copy of Great Expectations or something that would have to sit in storage until high school.

Get it it's cute, also thank you for reminding me they were going out of business. Buying that dress also, twinsies!

Pretty sure a writer on this very site wrote a long screed, including lots of “fuck you”’s, demanding that if you get invited to a wedding you better damn well buy the gifts you’ve been told to buy (including cold, hard cash) or you shouldn’t bother coming at all. Compared to that, this letter is downright polite.

Brandyn, Maddyson, AbbyGail, AnnaBella, Issybella. Something with a silent q.

Noted. Seems like a PITA to keep taking off and putting on all night but I suppose there are people who plan their bathroom breaks better than myself where they aren't ripping off their jeans to make it just in time.

Agreed! I think it's a case of not being used to wearing so many products, maybe? Often things that feel "heavy" to you are just feeling funny on your skin if you're not habituated to them being there.

Sorry sorry! ;) The ones from Sephora. I have the ones that look like jewelry rather than "tribal" or those that invite the description of "problematic." I'll look them up and post a link.

I think this is the least flattering of the makeovers - only because she is so lovely & the "Kim K" look hides her naturally luminous skin!

It's hysterical. I love it. He is having the best time. Carry on, sir!

Not to be the singular voice of dissent, but these are fun. We wore them all through carinival/mashramani. Sometimes it is just too hot and you're too sweaty to be bothered to wear jewelry. Plusssss I'm Caribbean sooo shiny and glittery forever :D

Just received this message from Jane, who's on the road as we speak:
