I did some googling and Spain and Japan both had 50-year mortgages at the height of their property bubbles The idea was you could pass your mortgage down to your kids or grandkids Both of their housing markets crashed disastrously and the people who took them out were often ruined

Idiom Origin “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” This was originally *sarcasm* & meant to convey that the act was impossible. A boot strap is a loop used to help put your boot on. This 1921 cartoon from the “Nonpartisan Leader” showcases that you can’t pull upward on your boots to levitate.

Incredibly bittersweet to be published in Teen Vogue this weekend after devastating layoffs, including my editor for this piece. It’s about how beauty influencers have fallen into and become part of the alt-right pipeline targeting girls and women www.teenvogue.com/story/womano...

Who benefits from 50 year mortgages: banks, developers, realtors, estate lawyers. Who gets screwed: everyone else.

HAPPY FOUR SEASONS TOTAL LANDSCAPING DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE

Don’t thrust wickedness onto someone who has a dog. He already freaks out when I watch football. He’s sensitive.

We need to have an honest discussion about how the rhetoric of “women are outperforming men” may be serving as a blind spot that neglects how women, and in particular Black women, have been impacted the most by recent layoffs and how advanced degrees are now being seen as a hindrance in some cases.

Olivia Rodrigo slams the White House and the Department of Homeland Security for using her song ‘all american b*tch’ in an ICE-related post: “don’t ever use my songs to promote your racist, hateful propaganda”

Taylor, you’re being an 🍑🎩.

“Dark psychology” “match energy” “manipulate them” “hurt their ego” You’re an abuser. Full stop. I’m tired of acting like all of this advice dressed up as empowerment and pushed out to millions isn’t abuse.

A student asked JD Vance how he balances his interfaith marriage. His answer? They're raising their kids as Christians and he hopes his Hindu wife converts. That's not love. That's religious superiority. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/jd-vance-w...

hire all the fired political teen vogue writers and make a new magazine call teen rogue. we’ll all subscribe en masse

I’m coming back around to this because another marriage of convenience that comes to mind is that of Claudius and Gertrude in Hamlet.

I still randomly think about how when the song 10,000 Hours came out, the entire internet acted like it should be interpreted as a car warranty: Love you for a lifetime or 10,000 hours, whichever occurs first.

In contemporary authoritarian regimes, they don’t ban dissenting voices—they have regime affiliated oligarchs buy up the big outlets and force out opposition voices. Anyway:

This is so bad. Teen Vogue had some of the last quality political coverage in the mainstream media.

Mhmm mhmm don’t say “I told you so” don’t say “I told you so” 🙂‍↕️

FYI: Fountain Pen Day is the first Friday of November

So many people believe they can pass a polygraph test by remaining calm throughout it but I'd like to think I can pass it by doing the opposite: becoming anxious enough when answering baseline questions like what is your name and where do you live?

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

Moral of the story: Don’t trust a b*tch with a braid

“some people abuse SNAP” your soul is rotten

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

www.tiktok.com/t/ZTMX3rJXA/ “It might be that it’s just a ‘marriage of convenience’ between a bunch of different groups reacting to wokeness and progressivism.” That’s certainly one way to phrase that.

The “I hate gay Halloween” trend will never get old because we are so fucking creative and smart and funny, I love us.
