been there ;)
Yes. I just had a reading malfunction and thought it was Paris Hilton trying to stir up some press. Now I feel bad for being mean to Paris Jackson. :(
OH MY GOD. Reading fail. I stopped reading at Paris, and assumed it was Paris Hilton.
I’m sure we’re supposed to be all “wah wah poor widdle millionaires” but hot damn if I wouldn’t also be fed up with that crap. 8:30 AM is a perfectly reasonable time to start construction work. 6 GODDAMN AM IS NOT.
I just bought and read Lindy West’s new book. (It’s great, I encourage everyone to buy and read it.) She writes an entire chapter about what went down with Dan Savage and the fatphobic stuff, and explicitly says that he has evolved on this issue over the past decade. He’s also evolved on trans issues.
pretty sure he blamed black people for prop 8 and has said lots of shitty stuff about trans people. he’s pretty problematic but did teach me a lot about being open about sex stuff
Unless you’re fat. Then he’s kind of shitty.
Off topic - but if you haven’t listened to this week’s Savage Love podcast please do. Dan Savage’s opening monologue was extremely touching and on point why the shootings in Orlando are so utterly devastating for the LGBT+ community. I cried. Dan Savage is a class act.
Oh, man! I wish I had those—I swear, the Jacksons seemed to be on a good deal of covers. (Along with every type of curl kit advertising EVER!)
The power of childhood trauma means that is the kind of detail you never forget. I remember precisely what the hideous bathing suit I had to wear on a girl scout camping trip at age nine looked like: a neon orange tankini with a gauzy little skirt with really ugly little flower-things on it.
Good lord. That is overkill.
I was thinking cabbage rolls, and I have a strawberry/rhubarb pie in the oven, but neither of those effectively lend themselves to cape-wearing... What to do. What. To. Do.
My favorite part is the thin film that covers whatever kind of sauce is included. Mmmmm film.
I’m so bad at portion control that when I’m eating something really good I get SAD that I’m getting painfully full b/c it means I have to stop eating soon. So. I feel you.
The bad news is, losing weight is almost entirely diet. As bodybuilders say, “abs are made in the kitchen”- which is to say, you can work out all you like, but if you want to actually lose bodyweight then that’s like 80% about what you eat and only 20% what you do in the gym. I’ve heard this from athletes, trainers,…
Ugh thinking of the smell of one of those gross microwaved meals makes me shudder.
I’m probably being that obnoxious person but diet /= starvation. It doesn’t necessarily even mean eating less food (by volume or weight). Just eating food that is much less calories dense.
Today I was telling a friend I needed to start working out.
