10 Tips for Tackling Your First Major DIY Automotive Repair

Editor’s Note: This a guest article from Tony Galloway. I started my automotive DIY journey about 12 years ago when I was supporting a family of three on a salary of $28K a year. It was the height of the economic recession, and I had to cut costs somewhere, so I decided to change my own oil. It wasn’t long before financial necessity dictated I graduate to brake pad replacement as well. Each year some new problem would pop up, leading me to question whether I might be better served by a trip to...

Debby Ryan Just Shared Her Secret to Sleek and Shiny Hair - and It's Only $9 on Amazon

Like most of us, Debby Ryan is keeping busy at home by practicing self-care. While some are choosing to take a long bath or do a little DIY manicure, she's chosen to focus her efforts on her hair and repair the heat damage caused by regular styling.

It took a gay man to make the ultimate ’80s kid fantasy. Todd Holland on the magic of ‘The Wizard’

Todd Holland with Fred Savage, Jenny Lewis & Luke Edwards on the set of ‘The Wizard’ Who’d have thought it would take a gay man to make the ultimate ’80s child fantasy? The man in question is Todd Holland, and the fantasy is the cult movie The Wizard. Though it scored mediocre reviews and died a quick death at the box office in 1989, the movie found a second life on home video and television. The film stars Fred Savage–the child actor of the moment thanks to his work on The Wonder Years–as Co...

Finding Comfort in Predictions

On March 11 I wrote the following notes in my personal journal: The coronavirus is currently in outbreak mode around the world. There are 125,865 known infections worldwide, with almost 81K in China. In the USA there are already 1281 infections, 7 of them in Nevada. But that’s largely due to severe under-testing.I think the USA is in for a big reckoning, especially with Donald Trump being a complete idiot in his response to this, clearly caring more about the economy and his own self-interest...

Human child spine bag "ethically sourced"

This is the creation of avant-garde fashion designer Arnold Putra, claimed to be made with an ethically-sourced human child spine and alligator tongue leather. Unfortunately, it's been memory holed since Twitter found it. Fortunately, the memory holers always forget about the Bing Cache. The ARNOLD PUTRA alligator tongue and human spine bag has been ethically sourced and crafted in a multiple panel construction. With an emphasis on protruding scar stitching lacing the outer construction of the ...

5 Tips For Having A Happy And Healthy Gut

While most of us only like to think about a great stomach on the outside, it’s equally important to consider the stomach on the inside as well. It’s hard not to love fried food, coffee, alcohol, and all sorts of wonderful spicy dishes from time to time, but problems with our digestive systems can arise when a diet isn’t healthy or varied enough. To keep our bodies fit and have a happy and healthy gut, it’s vital not to ignore those rumbling stomach sounds and consider getting things checke...

Betty Catroux/Yves Saint Laurent- Feminine Singular

Before I get to my post today, I want to thank everyone who sent messages by email and on Facebook about how the Coronavirus is affecting me and the city. I am feeling fine and healthy for the moment, and staying at home as much as possible. As far as Paris, all non-essential stores are closed except food shops (luckily the foie gras shop is open next door), pharmacies, banks, and for some bizarre reason, tabacs. As soon as tomorrow, there could possibly more drastic restrictions much like It...

We Need to Align With What’s Coming Next

We’ve seen a lot of changes in the world this week due to the coronavirus situation. I think what many people don’t yet realize is that the rate of change isn’t going to be linear. It’s going to accelerate. Despite all the changes you’ve seen this week, next week’s changes will be bigger still… and the changes coming the week after that will be even bigger. So if your head is spinning now, it will spin twice as hard next week. In the USA I see people making some adaptations, but they seem ...

This $6 Set of 45 Scrunchies Is the Best (and Most Useful!) Amazon Purchase I've Ever Made

I am so guilty of constantly losing any and all hair accessories I own. I couldn't keep track of a hair tie to save my life.

This $5 Mascara Has Rightfully Earned the #1 Spot on Amazon, If I Do Say So Myself

If someone were to tell me that I had to give up my entire makeup collection and I could only keep one item, I would pick mascara. As much as I love makeup, I'm not big on wearing a lot of it, but I never leave the house without mascara on. It makes me feel like my look is complete even if I have a bare face and my hair up in a ponytail (which, by the way, is my signature weekend look). With that said, I'm not really loyal to one mascara. I enjoy trying different formulas and keep a running list...

Do You Know who Dalida is?

Do you know who Dalida is? If not, she’s probably the most famous pop singer you never heard of.   She was born Iolanda Cristina Gigliotto in Cairo, Egypt in 1933, to Italian parents.   A great beauty, she won the Miss Egypt contest in 1954, went on to be a model and also landed some minor film roles. In 1954, she moved to Paris to further pursue her film career but failed to impress film directors and producers. Not wanting to give up, she tried singing, and studied with a strict tea...
