Are baby boomer names becoming trendy again?

Are baby boomer names becoming trendy again?

An article in The New York Times Magazine titled Name Days on February 28th by Linda Kinstler, made a shocking revelation. Kinstler’s parents were Latvian immigrants and in order to ensure their daughter was easily accepted and assimilated into the American way of life, they decided to give her a thoroughly pronounceable, spellable, and American name—Linda. What is unusual and even shocking about…

This is a #moodboard inspired by #orphanblack and #marcella, which I've been into lately. The #ladycop #aesthetic is something that you often see as the #professional #attire of women in roles that are 'masculine' or that require some kind of toughness. In movies and TV shows, actors typically wear dark jeans and trousers, and nice collared shirts with sweaters or blazers. It's a bit weird that there is a specific aesthetic for this, but I do dig it (#idk if good or bad 🤷). My favourites are the #tactical #turtleneck and #trenchcoat worn by #detective #bethchilds/#sarahmanning portrayed by @tatianamaslany, and pretty much anything that #marcella wore in #marcellaseason1 (@annafriel) Typically, a #femenine trait is kept for the aesthetic like a perfectly #coiffed #bobhairstyle like the one @marioncotillard sports in #contagion or a beautiful #milkbraids #updo like @nicolekidman in her #play #photograph51, where she portrays #rosalindfranklin, or #messy #hairbangs that say I'm-just-running-out-the-door-just-had-a-tiny-psychotic-break-will-be-there-in-five! #marcellaaaa Regardless of whether they're demure (@rosariodawson in #eagleeyemovie) or sexy (@jlo in #shadesofblue), the #womanworks #aestheticinfilm immediately tells the viewer that this is a woman who commands your attention and I do love that. #whoareyouwearing @baronessvonsketch #turtleneck #tactical #garment #archer #costumedesign #filmcostumes #womeninfilmandtv #moodboardmondays #digitalcollage #ohlamar #ohlamarcollage https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo86p19BFqg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ijv0tto3h74s

A tip of the toque to our good ol' CBC

A tip of the toque to our good ol’ CBC

Our very own CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation for my non-Canadian readers) has finally come up with some excellent television programs that I’ve been recommending to friends. Is it because the government has cut their funding and they’re becoming more resourceful or did we just get lucky? Whatever the cause, we’re the beneficiaries. I’ve been sending friends weekly reminders to watch three…

What's with boomerang kids? Then, now and still?

What’s with boomerang kids? Then, now and still?

We’ve all read about the 30-year-old man whose parents took legal action to evict their large so-called adult child from the family home once and for all. A few years ago we met a couple who resorted to selling their home and moving into a small condo in a last-ditch effort to ditch their immature, dependent son. It worked. Oh, that it should come to this.

While most baby boomers can’t imagine…

Have Baby Boomers gone to ground?

Have Baby Boomers gone to ground?

Driving at night is no longer as simple as it used to be.

There was a time when I simply couldn’t understand why my parents’ generation didn’t like to drive after dark, or why they preferred to stay home and sleep in their own beds. Look at all they were missing—nights on the town, travel and weekends away with friends. Then, I totally got the driving after dark thing a few years ago when I found…
