Sexting is an art that’s too easy to get wrong.
"I had blocked my ex from all social media and text so he looked me up on LinkedIn to tell me he wanted to formally endorse my 'sexual prowess' and asked me if I’d add blowjobs as a skill to my profile."
"A guy on Tinder said he wanted to cover himself in chocolate so I’d lick it off him. I told him I preferred Nutella and his response was, 'I’m allergic to nuts but I’ll go into anaphylactic shock and die for you.' Needless to say I stopped responding after that."
"'Suck thy flesh zoo,' accompanied by an unsolicited, flaccid dick pic."
The OCD demon strikes again.

It’s freezing here, so why not warm up with a spicy cheese toastie, or a steaming hot bowl of Aberdeen Angus beef stew?

Overly dry or hydrated skin can drastically affect your makeup application. Dry skin can cause flaking and creasing once you apply powder. Hyper-hydrated skin can prevent foundation and concealer from *sticking*.
Since your arm gets more exposure to the elements (which includes sunlight), your inner arm color can be drastically different from that of your face. Get more makeup tips here.

Anti-Trump hopefuls are appealing to electors in more than two dozen states where electors are not legally bound to cast a vote for that state's popular vote winner. It's a last-ditch, very long-shot effort to get Clinton into the White House.
Haggard told BuzzFeed News he has gotten about 6,000 emails but plans on voting for Trump.
"I read one, and then they're all the same," Haggard said about the emails.
There are plenty of new faces in and out of Stars Hollow, and a lot of them look familiar. (Obviously: SPOILERS!)
Who she plays: Naomi Shropshire, the boozy, eccentric woman who hires Rory to help write her memoir.
Where you've seen her before: As River Song on Doctor Who and Dr. Elizabeth Corday on ER.
Netflix
Who he plays: Paul, Rory's instantly forgettable boyfriend. (Even Rory, who has dated him for two years, can't seem to remember him.)
Where you've seen him before: As Dash on The Return of Jezebel James and Patric Edelstein on The Good Wife.
The Gilmore connection: Like Paul, Amy Sherman-Palladino's series The Return of Jezebel James, on which Carpenter had a recurring role, was quickly forgotten and deserved more love than it got. Carpenter was also on The Good Wife, which starred Matt Czuchry, who plays the guy Rory is cheating on Paul with.
Netflix
Who he plays: Himself, cooking in The Dragonfly kitchen and annoying Lorelai by virtue of not being Sookie.
Where you've seen him before: On Food Network, or maybe you've eaten at one of his restaurants.
Netflix
Who he plays: Jack Smith, an old friend of Emily and Richard's who grows closer to Emily after Richard's death.
Where you've seen him before: As Leland Palmer on Twin Peaks, The Devil on Reaper, and Marvin on Fresh Off the Boat.

“When you are deprived of a chance to share your voice, you have to yell louder.”
Mark Bennington
Amid one of the most tumultuous presidential elections in American history, photographer Mark Bennington captured a series of portraits and interviews with young Muslim Americans in New York City, creating what he describes as "a visual translation through representation of what a dynamic American community should look like."
Mark spoke to BuzzFeed about what this project, America 2.0, means to him:
"The idea germinated in the beginning of 2016, with all the Muslim/Trump rhetoric, so it was definitely a direct response to what I felt were politicized images of American Muslims continually being depicted as some plagued foreign diaspora.
I found this to be a crucial time to start a project that focused on the everyday of Muslim youth: What do ordinary lives and aspirations look like? Conversations on the youth have become huge during this election season, largely because of Bernie Sanders’ fervor. It made sense to start my journey of America 2.0 portraits with youth experiences in my own backyard, New York City. This is how the project unfolded."
“My dad watches the news like 24/7. He watches Al Jazeera. He’s from Egypt. I think it’s important to vote, but our options this year are … we didn’t have much choice! I’d have preferred not to vote, but I don’t think that’s a better option either. I wanted Bernie — he just seemed kind of down to earth unlike the other two.”
Mark Bennington
"To be honest, I was for Trump. I’m excited about him. I love his passion to change the country because it needs a lot of changing. If I were him, I would let in visitors but put a tracking device on them … because so many immigrants overstay and don’t pay tax."

Michel (Yanic Truesdale) on Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life.

Gilmore Girls is great at many things; diversity has never been one of them. But there's a sense in the Netflix revival, Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, that Amy Sherman-Palladino and co. realize they had to make up for lost time.
The first line Michel (Yanic Truesdale) speaks in the revival, for example, tell us more about his personal life than we learned throughout the series' original seven-season run: "I just don't understand it. Before we got married, Frederick was more indifferent to children than I am." It's hardly surprising that Michel is married to a man — but it certainly took long enough for Gilmore Girls to confirm that he's gay.
In the second episode, "Spring," Taylor (Michael Winters) announces the first ever Stars Hollow Gay Pride Parade — then laments that there aren't enough gay people in town to march in it. "How is that possible?" Lorelai (Lauren Graham) wonders. "We have such cute houses," Babette (Sally Struthers) adds. It's not the most nuanced joke, but it does at least allow the show to look at its past failings a bit more critically.
Sam Pancake as Donald.
Netflix
To Gilmore Girls' credit, the same scene introduces a new character named Donald (Sam Pancake), who could easily turn into the Little Britain sketch about "the only gay in the village," but is actually pretty charming. It's also implied that Taylor himself could be in the closet when Gypsy (Rose Abdoo) and other Stars Hollow dwellers push him on the parade issue, wondering if there's anyone else (wink wink) who could march. Sadly, we'll have to wait until there's another season of the revival to see if he ever decides to march alongside Donald. (Michel, of course, would never.)
A Year in the Life doesn't deserve too much credit for its minor uptick in gay representation, but Michel's casual coming out is still something to be celebrated — it's both matter-of-fact and integral to his storyline, as we learn Frederick wants to adopt a child and Michel isn't exactly a kid person. A parade would be a bit much at this point, but we can give Gilmore Girls a smattering of applause.
