Fat? We live in such a technological firestorm that anytime a celebrity is photographed nearly instantaneous commentary arises on anything from the hairstyle they’ve chosen, their wardrobe, and even their physical features, via any number of sources. Within moments it’s mentioned on a blog, on Twitter, on Facebook, via text message and possibly with corresponding video. It’s now as easy as hitting “submit” to glimpse someone’s image and make a judgment all in seconds.
Well, one millennial used that very technology to fight back…and good for her.
Bear with me, here. I’m going to need a little bit of sympathy and understanding from you, fellow Crasstalkers, because some of you might hate me for the next few things I’m going to say. Particularly those of you who live in places where it gets cold. I live in sunny Southern California and I freak out and need a jacket when it’s 60 degrees outside.

This article made my wheels turn a bit. I wonder if any of you have had a bad spa experience? Feel free to share your vagazzling, happy-endings gone awry and placenta facial stories here. Comment.
I once read an article that speculated that hormones given to cows are the reason that young girls are developing earlier and, uh, more amply. Either way, I was ahead of the curve (ha!) and gifted with a pair of assets that I sometimes am grateful for and sometimes curse for holding me back from accomplishing interesting things like being a ninja.

Popular nail blogger, Michelle Mismas, from All Lacquered Up, wrote a post for the NYT website “Room for Debate” series about unique colors of nail polish becoming mainstream. And the New York Time’s commenters went completely batshit insane.We’re entering the sixth week of our Eight Week Challenge, ladies and gentleman. I decided it was time to celebrate your wonderful dedication to the cause with a Triple 6 themed Dance Party. Why? I’m getting ya’ll pumped to cross the finish line. Continue reading
The bourgeois intellectual elite at the Mauve Lady (Grey with very strong shades of homosexual Pink) would like you to know that it’s about damn time we return to a time and place when, as writer Susan Mulcahy* declares, ‘men were men and a sofa was a sofa.’ Clearly, this only applies to rich people tufted couches with the nails in them and stuff, but there is one woman, one single solitary woman who has made it her mission to protect the dry cleanable garments of the world.
