Things We like / things We don’t
Recommendations about a variety of items used, loved and sometimes despised. Nothing paid or sponsored, just honest testimony about things I think you should know about.
“Non-consensual condom removal, or ‘stealthing’, is the practice of one sex partner covertly removing a condom, when consent has only been given by the other sex partner for condom-protected safer sex.”
What the hell is so great about these socks you may be asking? Well for starters, they are cozy as fuck…
Meditation is wonderful but it can be daunting. An easy way to start is to use a recorded, guided meditation. For that I unabashedly and emphatically recommend the Insight Timer app. Bonus: it’s free!
I need help getting sunscreen on my back which is why I use spray sunscreen. Through the years I have tried multiple brands and the sprayers have always been fairly shitty and I've never quite felt truly protected but honey bunny that's all changed…
One of my best accessory purchases of all time is my black leather card wallet. I purchased it in person at the Smythson of Bond Street…

Movie Reviews
Old movies, new movies, obscure movies, blockbuster movies. Sometimes I love the film I review, sometimes I hate it, and other times I have a complicated mix of feelings that I just want to share.

First, I’m not entirely sure I would have gone to see the new “A Star Is Born” remake if I didn’t have MoviePass. That said…
