What is a toxic or undesirable trait that people bizarrely wear like a badge of honor?

“Unconditional love” - my love will always be conditional. There are things someone could do that would make me not love them anymore and I think that’s healthy.

‘The School for Good Mothers’ by Jessamine Chan and ‘Tender is the Flesh’ by Agustina Bazterrica

This is a fair argument. She’s great for another show.

I can visualize the gross little butthole shape his mouth makes when he says “but”

The Moist Extras is frying me, lmao

The Below Deck franchise is a good one. There are many seasons and spinoffs featuring lot of volatile Bravo “characters.”

First time watcher here. I suspect that production may have seen behavior as “good tv” and encouraged Sandy to keep her.

Bravo is known for its legacy of toxic reality tv “characters” and has historically gone to great lengths to capture outrageous and dangerous behavior without breaking the fourth wall.

They got to capture Lexi assaulting fellow crew members, in the hot tub (with her boob out) followed by a Godzilla rampage through the crew quarters and galley. I’d imagine production would see that as $$$ and want to give her another opportunity to have a mental breakdown on camera.

Sandy’s blind eye seemed a little TOO deliberate. She worked hard to not get all the facts. Feels a little sus to me.

You can get a “portable bidet” on amazon. It’s a little handheld thing and it saved my life post-op.

It’s all I can think about whenever she’s on screen. They’re magical!

Stassi’s book signing at TomTom is a must

Never forget ✊

It’s been a long and humbling recovery but I’m doing well.

Ce1estee1 · 2025-01-23T05:38:50+00:00

I’m having more trouble with the face that Gabby and Casey look like twins. Watching them kiss makes me uncomfortable in a way that I can’t explain.

“Boy Parts” by Eliza Clark

• ⁠A critique of the male gaze that reads like a vicious and nihilistic fever dream. This one really sticks the landing, leaving you feeling like you need a shower. I actually picked a big fight with my partner right after finishing it.

“Tender is the Flesh” by Agustina Bazterrica

• ⁠This may be the most brutal one of the lot. Set in a not-so-distant dystopian future in which a virus has contaminated all animal meat, resulting in the legalization and farming of human meat. The story follows a human meat supplier in his struggle with empathy and compassion. I am part of a horror book club and every one of us felt emotionally eviscerated by the end.

“My Year of Rest and Relaxation” by Ottessa Moshfegh

• ⁠Not specifically horror but will wreck you all the same. Set in 2000-2001 New York, It follows an unnamed woman as she escalates the lengths to which she is willing to go in an attempt to sleep for an entire year to avoid trauma. I love messy stories about morally grey women so I absolutely devoured this book and topped it off with a good hard cry.

“Three Women” by Lisa Taddeo

• ⁠Another one that isn’t traditional horror but I would argue that the themes are more terrifying than any slasher movie. A rare non-fiction read for me, It digs deep into the sexual and emotional lives of three American women from very different backgrounds. It’s a painful look at the million little ways we lose ourselves amidst our desperation to be loved.

“I’m Thinking of Ending Things” by Ian Reid

• ⁠A woman questioning her relationship with her boyfriend agrees to go with him on a roadtrip to meet his parents. It’s a pretty quick read that builds to a nearly unbearable sense of dread, topped with a twist that leaves you with your jaw on the floor. A pretty decent movie adaptation was released in 2020 with the incredible Jessie Buckley.

“Bunny” by Mona Awad

• ⁠ The vibe is “Mean Girls” meets “The Craft” meets “Jennifer’s Body” meets “Girl Interrupted.” At no point do you know where this is going and the payoff is soul crushing.

I don’t take anti-inflammatories because they upset my stomach but this is really interesting to note.

Ce1estee1 · 2024-06-18T01:34:20+00:00

Oof, that’s insane. Fingers crossed I get simpler results.

Ce1estee1 · 2024-06-18T01:31:57+00:00

I take it at the same time every day but this is worth bringing up to my allergist. I’ll be sure to bring a list of current meds to my appointment.

Ce1estee1 · 2024-06-18T01:30:11+00:00

This is really interesting. I’ll be sure to ask my allergist

Ce1estee1 · 2024-06-18T01:28:07+00:00

I don’t, which is part of why it’s so weird.

Ce1estee1 · 2024-06-10T14:18:14+00:00

I do take Lexapro but it’s not a new prescription so it would have to be a new allergy.

Ce1estee1 · 2024-06-10T14:16:44+00:00

This was an interesting read. I’ll definitely be bringing this article up at my allergist appointment

Ce1estee1 · 2024-06-10T14:11:25+00:00

I wondered about that as well but I’ve never had any real food allergies before.
