If you’re as obsessed with @GovWhitmer’s lip color as I am, she gets her lipstick at The Lip Bar in Detroit (black & woman owned!). The color is called “Big Gretch” obviously 💕 💄

Welp, it happened. Got bullied in the comments of a project I was really proud of. If you ever think of saying anything negative to an artist who is just trying to do good work, please remember there are humans behind the work with real feelings and tears.

@taylor_vahey the whole dating culture has shifted incredibly within the last ten years that I truly think everyone needs to learn how to human again because the way we're all treating eachother ain't right-- but I will say there are gems in the rough and you can always approach people too!.

the sluttiest thing a man could do is come up with a when and where in a timely fashion before a date.
A real text conversation between me and my best friend this morning. I will say it again, the hardest part of dating is getting men who have already asked me out to tell me where and when I am supposed to meet them for our date.

recently on a first date, a man™️ asked me “so are you planning on freezing your eggs?”. …this is dating in your 30s.

You guys, if you like someone's work–tell them. There's a human behind it! Have a coffee–or even a google hangout! It's so great to connect with people and make this creative community feel a little bigger :).

@alexthegrreat as someone who worked on babybel, it keeps it fresh / one of those grocery store cheeses actually made with natural ingredients from a big brand (vs the little artisanal stuff). cc @EileenMatthews to old times creatively thinking about cheese 🫠.

got told on a date last night “if you lost 20 lbs and kept the personality more dudes would look at you”…and wow men, unsolicited comments like this fuck with our self-esteem and it’s just wildly inappropriate to say out loud. do better.

went on a date the other night, middle of the date the man™️ goes “im married!” a few min later, “I have three kids!”….i was shocked and called him out! if you’re open, you need to write that in a profile and/or talk about it before wasting the time of someone who’s not into it.

@noanonob tumblr in the early 00s was height of discovery and curation for visual art, that and design blogs (fffffound, quipsologies, notcot, psfk, deezen)— felt more like a newspaper, still had to search a bit but when you did 🪄.

your 30s are for making new friends and going on new adventures; but most of all, it's for accepting that a lot of people and parts of life that you knew well are going to change without you but you just have to keep moving and finding your own way.

can men stop inviting women over as a first date? this is not a not a date-it’s lazy and uncomfortable. wish more men would understand how much women look out for their safety because y’all are essentially strangers. date in public.

@nickgraynews “And it feels good to be this full with someone I like” is the most heartwarming line from all these escapades 🫶🏻.

@_ryanruby_ I kinda think people don’t know how to human anymore, and we are making everything from friendship to dating ridiculously hard when it doesn’t need to be (whether it be on an app or a focused event). people need to get comfy with living life—just talk, grab a number if someone’s.

where does one dance in bk/nyc? not a club, but a fun crowded-ish bar with good vibes and probably a sticky floor, good-enough yet danceable music, and you’ve probably made out with a rando or got a number from someone you never texted there.

annoyances w/ job hunting in the design & tech job market: if u were in creative/agency side for most of ur career, youre prob overlooked no matter how much experience u have ::even:: when applying for entry level roles. tech misses a lot of opps with creatives in so many ways 😔.
