Semi-Funny story. I had never eaten beets before, but I started eating those beet and sea salt chips (so good!), and I freaked the fuck out when I peed red that next morning.
I have hella good healthcare through my job, and so I made an appointment with my primary care doc right away, and he was like "Any changes to your diet?"
Felt bad about wasting his time, but Jesus, I was not expecting that amount of red in the bowl!
I am a spring of knowledge about all of the domestic Real Housewives franchises (though I did just pick up Dubai recently).
I know all the lore behind all their relationships/alliances/enemies and off season shenanigans.
Its legitimately stupid how much I can talk about rich women who flaunt their wealth and then do trashy shit like throw wine in one another's faces or flip tables (or scam the elderly out of their retirement funds to fund their own lifestyle).
Ugh, seconding the makeup. Im spending 2025 on a low buy where Im only replacing essentials (like foundation, mascara, or eyeliner) as I need them.
Recently Coloured Raine went out of business and dropped all their eyeshadow prices down to $2.50, and I bought all of the palettes that were still available. Im pretty sure I have every single eyeshadow color at this point. The stack is so high I havent put them away in my vanity yet. Its like...9 palettes or something, on top of all the others I also have.
Oh jesus, between this reason and the fact that my husband's guts are a legit mixing ground for chemical warfare, our marriage would not survive a one bathroom household.
From an American: I'm so sorry our idiocy is bleeding into our neighbors up North. Learn from our mistakes!
Tell everyone you know that our healthcare literally bankrupts our working class, and that we still have crazy wait times for appointments due to our staffing shortages! Tell them there is absolutely zero upside to using anything remotely like our system!
Yeah, my husband and I stopped using Amazon years ago, and this is what we did. You can just Google anything you need to buy and then order it straight from the manufacturer.
This year I did dip my toe back into Amazon because I discovered we get a free Prime account through our cell phone provider, but I only use it for when I need something guaranteed delivery by a certain date. For everything else, I just go to a store's web site.
I usually completely forget I even have an account when I'm searching for stuff I need to buy.
Airport bars are always offering shots with their beers. Like every time Ive sat at one.
Another place that comes to mind are the little hotel convenience stores in Vegas casinos. Usually those are a tall boy of shitty cheap beer and then you can select an airplane bottle of liquor to go with it for a "combo deal".
Edit: Actually we cant be related, because this describes both parents, my little brother, and all my aunts/uncles/cousins, and grandparents and you said "One person".
Well, as someone who adores horror movies of all styles from pure camp to serious, and as someone who feels hella nostalgia for MD, I thank you for putting The Bay on my radar!
My husband is a super cinephile though, so Im super hell be interested in the others (provided he hasnt already seen them).
I grew up on the East Coast of the United States. MD and FL to be specific. Going to the beach was a regular thing in our household, whether it was the Chesapeake Bay or the Atlantic Ocean somewhere in West Palm Beach. My grandad has a house on the actual bay. Grew up spending every family gathering there. The adults would visit/catch up, and us kids would be in the water. I was NEVER scared of the water.
Then, as a young adult, Im sitting at an inprocessing for a base in Okinawa, Japan, and the briefer is going over local hazards in the region.
I had never heard of the Blue Ringed Octopus before.
And from that moment on, I became terrified of things in the ocean.
My husband always laughs about that story because its rare that they even make it into the waters around Oki, but that genuinely really was the moment that my brain was like "Omg, you have to worry about more than sharks in the ocean."
I really enjoy the tiny ceiling lamp in this one. It's doing its best!
