I hate being tall. I've commiserated with jezzies before about how unreasonable it is to wear a 37" inseam. I'm about to start a job working in a chain bakery after coming from a small independently owned one where we just wore capri-length workout pants or whatever in the kitchen. I now have no clue what I can… Read more

Yuck, Charlotte was by far my least favorite character. Her insistence on downplaying her own strength, success and agency in order to make men more "comfortable" so they'd date her was infuriating. That's only the tip of the iceberg too, IMO. Her sweet (albeit unrealistic) romanticism and genuine desire that everyone… Read more
