Quarantine gotcha down? Have you not showered in weeks? Do your neglected nails make you look more like a witch casting spells than a functioning member of society? Nothing a mani-pedi can’t fix! Now quit nervously chewing your fingers for a second and follow along as Meticulous...
A lot of us should be happy we have an excuse to wear a mask to cover our faces. I, for one, love to not be seen. But it’s becoming a bit of a self-feeding cycle: We wear a mask, get acne from it and now want to wear...
Before the coronavirus, we swarmed to our offices, dressed to impress and pressured to behave like decent, considerate human beings. Now, beds are the new desks, pants are optional and passing gas freely might as well be a requirement. Gone are the days when we cared about our image...
Among the downsides of being someone within a perfectly average height range for humans is that nearly everyone else’s face and mouth is always so close to mine, particularly when we’re pointing our faces and mouths at each other. This is arguably a good thing in “normal”...
