“You will find out that salt and sugar look the same but they taste different.”

A little something about me: For the past 5 months I have been the senior news editor at @them.us!! Loved it there. Hoped it was last for quite a while. I’m speaking in past tense because yesterday was my last day. Today, I start a new role! 💕💕💕

Kirk Pressley, an icon in the DMV model troupe scene and a legend in ballroom, died on Wednesday at 36. He was known for appearing in Rihanna’s Super Bowl teaser, Pose season 1, a viral clip as a Donald Trump parody, and his catchphrase “Let’s get excited.” www.them.us/story/boom-b...

Approaching the end of a long week with an even longer day

I haven’t been hungry all day (and still am not) which isn’t good because that means a migraine is imminent because I forgot to eat

Anyway goodnight I’m annoyed

Hearing people say there’s nothing about consent and boundaries in Pillion makes me so 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 That’s what the literal entire film is about?!

RuPaul in this thigh high!!

I know the tickets are a little pricey but Jinkx as Mary Todd Lincoln was worth it I fear

Nvm apparently I was in Charleston, London, Las Vegas, DC, Montreal and Portugal in 2016. And in the gym? And someone took a picture of me at fashion week without my knowledge and put it on a Tumblr.

Everyone still has pictures from 2016?!

If I keep skipping upper body days but take leg day very seriously will anything bad happen to me

Was just reminded of the line in Pillion: “no I am happy, I could just be a bit happier” Which broke me a little bit the first time I heard it

Yall really be in the gym hella cheeked up

Was I the only one who didn’t realize that you could take your old frames to the eye glass doctor and they could just … swap them out for new lenses?

One thing about men, they are going to piss you off

bc this dead would be me

If you ask me “WYD?” every day at the same time and I give you the same answer you don’t think you should maybe ask at another time if you want to make something happen?

Every year I sit down and go through my bank accounts transaction by transaction to get a sense of what I made and what I spent and … Unfortunately this year I thought money grew on trees!!

I hate upper body work out days with such a vengeance.

on Them today, my most room-temperature take of all time: democrats can, in fact, win elections without cynically abandoning trans civil rights at the first sign of trouble www.them.us/story/2025-e...

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Love to swing my feet if they dangle between sets on the chest press machine. Feels very 🤪🤪

Really need these pants but need them to be 50-70% off

Lol

Can anyone tell me why the stairmaster makes me feel leaner and lighter in my body than almost any other exercise I do? Granted I did 40 minutes today but even when I do 20!
