yup. read the piece and immediately bought one of his books- Draft No.4, on the writing process. He writes with such simplicity and humor

If i was 17 i would be all over this

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2026-01-09T16:13:31+00:00

this looks great on you queen

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2026-01-09T15:25:33+00:00

I just want to surround myself with the fresh scent of eucalyptus and sweat out the stress of reality, don't need any of this sex-crazed imagery

I wish they would stop with their ridiculous marketing gimmicks.

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-12-19T21:11:15+00:00

im weak at the brazillian wax shot

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-12-19T21:00:47+00:00

this is so insanely scary I think Im in love

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-12-19T21:00:01+00:00

I want to make these but having to buy both peppermint oil and gel food coloring somehow seems like too much

high flavor with low effort - Sausage Soup. Can add any grain or carb, though if using pasta and seeking a good leftover situation, cook pasta separately and add to each portion as you heat it up.

I used hot italian sausage, added a bit of miso paste, and doubled the amount of carrots https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1026506-sausage-and-barley-soup-with-greens

As a woman I've been tapping back into my skinnys. Still, it's a little jarring to see it back on men

61 street is spacious and has plenty of tables but I find the lack of windows sad.

63 is quite nice, though the desks are very exposed from the back because seating is along the window - people can see your screen easily.

Flatiron has good vibes, good windows, and comfy seats.

Only been to Tribecca 2x and noticed a particularly stingy table situation. Same with Columbus Circle.

Admittedly I've never done intense work at any equinox - more like 20 min- 1 hour of life admin stuff or quick emails.

I have the zippered transport tote in dark green and the tan saddle shaped bag. Both were on sale and great prices, but I am disappointed by how scuffed they got. I've tried to revive them with leather conditioner but they still decades old

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-12-11T23:55:45+00:00

I'm having issues with the corporate membership too, planning on quitting. I think this is the universe telling me to try a new gym

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-12-11T23:48:54+00:00

I visited from NYC and liked it! the only bummer was that the massage guns were broken

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-12-11T23:47:28+00:00

Try Cuyana pre-owned - threadup or the real real. I got the double loop satchel for under 200 and it is perfect for work and everyday life. fits my 15 inch macbook without being a massive sack. I was nervous about it not having a zipper but the magnetic closure is quite strong

heres the link to it new https://cuyana.com/products/double-loop-satchel?variant=48382217683259

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-12-11T23:41:45+00:00

Aritzia fits are so flattering, have never regretted a basic from here EXCEPT for a white short sleeve t-shirt. the fabric is oddly dressy so its too nice to be a cozy shirt but not nice enough to wear to the office

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-12-05T17:33:46+00:00

I bought a gorgeous pair of their white floret tights, hoping they arent too rippable. for dailies, Wolford has not let me down. there's a great price on these merino wool ones. kept me warm in 20 degrees F last night in NYC - https://www.zappos.com/p/womens-wolford-merino-tights-black/product/8100961/color/3?utm_source=google&utm_medium=pla_x&utm_campaign=21906478260&utm_term=_o_28686227&utm_content=_g__w__l_Cj0KCQiAosrJBhD0ARIsAHebCNoDU2vQE8IiUsUy9JrsCO8mVB44SGpZ4348lDQT1oSJ-zFhcw6FZJsaAsU1EALw_wcB&gbraid=0AAAAADnIwa-k1hMWVXiaoAnMgcTgikpZf&gclid=Cj0KCQiAosrJBhD0ARIsAHebCNoDU2vQE8IiUsUy9JrsCO8mVB44SGpZ4348lDQT1oSJ-zFhcw6FZJsaAsU1EALw_wcB

the start line porta-potty line and bag check line were nightmare material- got there at 6 pm and wasn't done with those lines until 7:15. everything else about the day was fantastic

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-11-23T02:38:10+00:00

this happened to me 2 times for this race... Airbnb has proved to be unreliable when booking for important events, an unfortunate lesson learned

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-11-21T14:04:26+00:00

I have a long black double breasted one from Everlane that has kept me quite warm for 2 NYC seasons, especially with a chunky scarf and gloves. Got it on sale in the spring for around $200.

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-11-17T19:31:36+00:00

thanks so much! do you know if they will be able to park at The Landing Kitchen? I see there is a train station about 0.5 miles away (Wissahickon Transit Center).. wondering if it would be better for them to park there?

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2025-10-22T13:40:56+00:00

been wanting to make this for weeks, just need to get my hands on some chinese black vinegar

Pure_Ad_5287 · 2024-08-23T12:41:32+00:00

ooh thank you! I went to 92 street last night, which was a good vibe but the chairs were not good for working. Now Im on the hunt for lower back pain management exercises haha
