“I’ve been laid off 26 times!”

Years ago, at the beginning of my JibberJobber journey, I was in Houston presenting at a few job clubs. I was invited to an outplacement networking group… which was a far cry from the churches I normally presented in. This outplacement office was swanky. Seriously swanky. It was in a super nice building, on a top floor so it felt like an executive office. No expense was spared. It’s what they call a Class A facility, which means really expensive. So I get there early and got to chat with a few o...

Bed Bath and Beyond Closes 200 Stores in 2021 Through 2023

Sadly, we all know Bed Bath and Beyond has been in trouble for a while and will close 200 locations starting February 2021 and through the next two years. The 40 something stores below are the ones slated for closure by the end of February. This is unrelated to the pandemic as Bed Bath and Beyond had plans to close locations for a while now. I actually like the store a lot but I only ever browse when I go there and end up ordering the item from Amazon and getting it like 50% or more cheaper b...

Dein Sexhoroskop für 2021: So stehen die Sterne in Sachen Erotik

Es ist 2021, und das Zeitalter des Wassermanns hat offiziell begonnen.

Podcast #673: The Complex Coolness of Steve McQueen

Performances by the actor Steve  McQueen  in classic films like The Great Escape and Bullitt earned him the nickname “The King of Cool.” But behind the scenes,  McQueen ‘s character was complex in nature: he could be both difficult and demanding and kind and generous; someone who could act aloof, but care about things deeply. My guest has traced both sides of the coin of  McQueen ‘s coolness for decades. His name is Marshall Terrill, and he’s the author of multiple biographies on  McQueen...

What You Can Learn from a Political Disaster

Sensemaking and the rhetoric of pornography. Donald Trump is a declaration of indifference and the rejection of the values making our democracy possible—a human, political disaster with anti-democratic instincts. After working through endless newspaper, magazine and journal articles by some of our best writers, my frustration with the various lines of thinking left a number of issues very much unanswered. One thing was clear: Trump is leaving a reality structure behind, the so-called “Trumpism,”...

Perfect Corp., developer of virtual beauty app YouCam Makeup, closes $50 million Series C led by Goldman Sachs

Spending on cosmetics has usually weathered economic crises, but that changed during the COVID-19 pandemic, with stay-at-home orders and masks tempering people’s desire to wear makeup. This forced retailers to accelerate their online strategies, finding new ways to capture shoppers’ attention without in-store samples. Virtual beauty try-on technology, like the ones developed by Perfect Corp., will play an important role in this shift to digital. The company announced today it has raised a Series...

A Word and Colour for 2021

Every January I choose a word and colour to help set my priorities for the new year. It’s a tradition that I adopted from my friend and YLF forum member, Laura. I love the simplicity of having a single word to keep top of mind, and the power and symbolism of a single colour. It feels calming, organized, and motivating. The selection process is also a lot of fun.   In 2019, I chose the word relaxed and colour red. In 2020 I chose the word experience and the colour blue. Even with all the things t...

The nobody-nose job: how the pandemic led to a rise in plastic surgery

Wanting to emerge from lockdown ‘better’ versions of themselves, some people are turning to drastic measuresWhen Kaafiya Abdulle gave birth to her son in April 2017, she chose to breastfeed. A year later, she switched to baby formula, hyper-vigilant of the effects nursing had on her breasts. Unhappy with the sagging and shrinking that had occurred, she began to research breast lifts – a procedure she desperately wanted but never had the courage to pursue. Until the pandemic, that is.

The Ridiculous Ashes is now a podcast

Do you remember the Ridiculous Ashes? It was a thing we did with Dan Liebke over at Cricket 365 for the 2019 series. It’s an alternative trophy that is awarded to the side that produces the most hilarious and absurd cricket across an Ashes series. Just to let you all know, we’re doing it as a podcast now. Obviously there isn’t an Ashes going on at the minute, but that’s okay because there have been a great many Ashes series for which we haven’t yet determined a Ridiculous Ashes victor. Thi...
