It’s so funny to me how people are surprised that I’m watching the Super Bowl, but like… it’s glitz? It’s glamour? It’s literally a PERFORMANCE? It’s an EVENT. I love all of these things. I wish the team captains would kiss at the end.

There is a modality of therapy called Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). DBT teaches us that two seemingly opposing truths can coexist. The same applies to the Lively/Baldoni case: Blake Lively can both exhibit harmful behavior AND still be deserving of protection. Complexity is human.

I think that Blake Lively handled the release of It Ends With Us in a completely inappropriate and tone-deaf manner, but I’m still going to believe women. Every. Fucking. Time.

One of my formers asked me to edit his law school essays, and the first thing he mentions is how his decision to pursue law was because of his experience in speech & debate and I honestly could not be prouder 🥲

I love a loosely Christmas-themed romcom (Love Actually, The Holiday, etc.), but give me the FULL holiday magic experience. I need a festival or small-town business to be saved. I need a Santa-coded man to provide the main character with wisdom. I need at least 3 renditions of O Holy Night.

my favorite thing about having a hospital/shift work schedule is that any time I work on a Monday, it’s actually my Friday, and then Real Friday is followed by a 3day weekend
