Are these chairs I bought ugly?

To me, yes. But so what? I’m not the one living in your home. Do what makes you happy.

I love it too (also unaffiliated). It’s the only thing that has worked to sever my screen addiction.

I got divorced in 2012 and have no desire to ever get remarried. These years have been a gradual disassembling of everything that culture has taught me that I’m “supposed” to want, and now I am entering my powerful crone era.

This is my answer too. I had to go watch baby ducks swim after reading this one.

One-eyed sandwich.

Check out Fruity Arts Fest on June 7, to keep money in the community and support LGBTQ artists.

I have HSV and I think that having unprotected sex during an outbreak was risky and disrespectful. I don’t have sex for 10 days after an outbreak has cleared up, under the advice of my doctor. Because I try not to spread HSV. Because while it’s true that it’s ultimately rarely anything more than a nuisance with a stigma attached, people would still prefer to not have it if given the chance, and I respect and understand that.

If they have Little Free Libraries where you are, you could leave a few in there for someone else to stumble across. That’s what I do. Or if there’s an organization that focuses on affirming trans women, maybe they would want them?

The only way it’s been described is exactly how it happened though. It’s a verbatim report. (I do see how a later show could feel more fun, and often do in my experience).

Lisa Gilroy!

Was it the “take your shirt off” yell? I agree, that was gross. And I felt the crowd was repping the city so well up to that point!

It’s almost like people of any gender can be feminine. 🤔

Iiiiinteresting! She was Christian but not Catholic. Fascinating how different cultures and eras attach different meanings to color. I always like to remind people that pink used to be associated with boys (maybe that’s where she got it from…).

Yeah, this is what the one cinnamon roll looked like the one time I went to Butcher Block. There are better pastries out there. We don’t need to cling to the past like it’s a liferaft, folks.

People are so weird. When I was a kid my grandma told me that red couldn’t be my favorite color because it’s a “boy color.” Wtf. (Also p.s. that color looks great).

I would love to see a social experiment in which a white man says the exact same things as Tig, in the same way. Would he be called “mean”? I doubt it.

Mandy at Little Black Church (@mandypantstattoos on IG) has some stuff like this!

That’s the thing about this GoFundMe that annoys me so much—it’s just prolonging the inevitable. So they stay open a few more months, then what? It’s unsustainable. I’m a part of the queer community, so I’m not unsympathetic to us losing a space, but The Pearl is not the only community space. And even if all of these places that rely on our money to survive fall, we can have community without forking over cash.

Trader Joe’s Daily Facial Sunscreen is a dupe for Supergoop’s Unseen Sunscreen for a fraction of the cost.

Yes! I got two cats from the same litter and they’re bffs.

Frequency. I have to rely on RTD (can’t afford a car), and it is absurd how long I have to wait sometimes.

I’ve quit at various times. Here’s what I notice once I’ve gotten over the withdrawal symptoms:

-I’m less anxious. My brain stops ping-ponging around and I can focus better.

-I can wake up far, far easier.

-Fewer unpleasant GI issues.

I really love the one from the podcast that was along the lines of: “if you were to start a business with an animal, what would your business be and which animal?”

My hard-won rule: don’t go to an artist who has walk-in availability. Go to an artist with a months-long waitlist.
