i love mispronouncing white girl names like ok lakyn

[tutuprincesse]

no one has whiter names than these comp kids.

it’s like bristyn brynlee everleigh tinsley kinsley annsley ayden gracyn lakyn blakelyn like ENOUGH

I mean, they are, in fact, white 💀 (at least, all the ones I recognize) I think they're nice names, I just don't understand the spelling for some

[docholligay]

Doc if a friend was intent on giving her kid a name that you thought was truly terrible, would you tell her so or keep quiet about it?

I am of the opinion, and I would tell her so, that the smartest thing to do when you've chosen your child's name definitively, is to tell fucking NO ONE until they are born. It's easy to argue about a kid's name before they exist, harder when you just introduce them.

With very few exceptions, when I was pregnant and we decided on our names for a girl or boy, we didn't tell anyone. I didn't want to have the fucking argument. One of my very close friends that I did tell, actually legitimately hurt my feelings by laughing and telling me she thought it was old and ugly. Luckily, I'm me, and that changed my mind literally none, it was a fait accompli, and, as the ancient Greeks said, suck it.

I think I dodged a lot of annoyance by not telling anyone, and once she was born it was just like, "Well, there we are." Recommend it 100%.

So, before she ever told me, I would tell her, "Please do not tell me this unless you want my opinion" I often tell people not to ask my opinion if they don't want it, because if you want it, I will give it, and though I will try to be kind about it, I am not often dishonest. This is true of many major things in life. I used to be a wedding planner and so people love to ask me about their weddings. Anyway.

I have opinions about everything, all the time, and please trust that I hold my breath every time a friend or acquaintance has a baby. Part of the reason (one of many) hit it off was when we were talking about kids, her attitude about names was "If it ain't in the bible, I don't want to hear about it" and that suited me right down to the ground. Baby names we liked, but given we aren't having another will never use: Solomon Starr, Rivka, Asa. So you get where we're coming from here. An admittedly specific viewpoint

I had an acquaintance who named her kid Mcconaughey, yes, as in Matthew, and I damn near had a fucking stroke. And then the whole Lakyn, Jaden, McKeltyn, I can't go there. Help. Stop yourselves. If I had a friend who told me, "No I want to know" first thing, is, and I'll get some blowback for this but whatever, "can people spell and say it?" It's all well and good to think that people should learn to say any name, but I am pragmatic, and my motto is very much "Work for the world you want, but in the meantime, get real." *I* love the name Yael, and Tzeitel, for example. But I think it would be real real shitty of me to tell my kid "Here, enjoy correcting everyone for the rest of your life." If *I* choose to change my name--and if I had changed my last name for marriage, I would have changed my first, and Yael was one side of the coin toss--to something that takes work, that's one thing. I didn't feel right asking that of my progeny.

Then I would go, "Please avoid naming your kid a noun, in general" though I suppose there are exceptions to this, but if I hear the words "Sparrow" or "Sailor" come out of your mouth, we're gonna have a fight next to the pastry case.

Then the third tier. Where, it's a perfectly fine and average name, I just don't much care for it. Your Matthews and Michelles. That, I would probably shrug. It's fine.

Before you think I'm an asshole (I am 100% an asshole) I am always EXTREMELY enthusiastic at people when they pick a name I think is great, so it's not like I'm all negative here. I've had people naming their babies Moira and Guadalupe and Cory and shit. Raya. Great. Applause, applause. There is actually a longer list of names I think are good than bad.

What The Hell Is Going On With Red Carpets?

So, the Golden Globes are on tonight. *Wendy Williams voice* Clap if you care.

That's what I thought.

Once upon a time, at least as recently as my childhood, even if you didn't see any of the films that were nominated at the Golden Globes or any of the shows nominated at the Emmys, or any of the plays nominated at the Tonys, you'd still tune in to the red carpet coverage to see rich people at their best: playing dress up in clothes none of us can afford.

But that time has clearly passed. 'Cause what the hell is this?

Now, I haven't watched The Bear, but does Ayo Edebiri play a dishwasher? What are those gloves?

Never mind the noticeable absence of neck adornment with many perfectly fine gowns that absolutely need jewelry, what is going on!? All the wrinkled gowns, poor (or no) tailoring, ugly poufs and peplums and some of the worst shoe choices I've ever seen in my life could all be excused if it weren't all such a bore.

Minds much smarter than I have speculated that there's truly nothing new left to be done. I don't believe it. What I do believe, however, is that celebrities are scared to do it. Scared to go too far, scared to really push the envelope for fear they'll be eviscerated on social media, and so they go for what's safe and...still get eviscerated on social media.

But why are they so afraid of us not liking their outfits? Who the hell are we? Back in the day, you had Joan Rivers to impress, you had tabloids at the cash register of every supermarket just itching to put you on the Worst Dressed List, and, usually, no stylist to create your vision and make it the best it could possibly be. How have we gone so far backwards in a world that accepts Crocs as a valid fashion choice?

My earliest fashion WOW moment was Celine Dion and her backwards Galliano tuxedo which, if you're well-versed in fashion lore, you know was a total flop at the time. But we look back on it now as one of the most daring, iconic looks of the 90s.

Now, I can admit that a lot has been done, so maybe there is a lot less left to do, but, it seems like nobody wants to even try to make a moment that no one has ever seen before, and I can't help but think about how if the celebs are too scared, regular people have to be terrified to try to push the envelope. I mean, not to constantly go back to the oversaturation of pre-packaged aesthetics that one only needs to add to cart to create an entirely new identity, but, it does appear that we, as a collective, are in a real dry spell when it comes to newness. Even those constant new aesthetics are just repackaging of old ideas. Has a fear of social media backlash permeated the masses? Are we all paralyzed at the idea of being a little "out there" lest some faceless TikTokUser30592058 say something mean?

Maybe. Or maybe I could be speaking too soon. Perhaps we'll look back on some the neck-less looks of today with fondness. I could certainly make a case for Jessica Chastain's dress being one of the best tonight if only she had gone the extra mile to actually style it.

But, I don't know. When I imagine the 2023 version of a 7-year-old Lakyn--the aspiring fashion designer she was--looking at the red carpet today, I just don't see that WOW moment. Does anyone feel inspired by this?

And where the F$%K are the necklaces!!??!

Team Harris must be in big trouble. That’s the only reason they’d dive into the murky depths of the Dem well, dredging up foul, stagnant water to try and hydrate their dried-up campaign. Bill Clinton is that tall glass of swampy sludge—hobbling onto the trail like a confused, weathered relic, doing way more harm than good.

In what can only be called a total slip of the tongue, Clinton stood on stage and urged people to vote for Harris/Walz so they can bring in more illegals to replace Americans—who, according to Slick Willy, aren’t “reproducing enough.” Yes, you heard that right. That’s the message Bill Clinton is pushing, at a time when the Harris/Biden border invasion is front and center on voters’ minds as they watch their wealth and safety swirl down the drain thanks to these dangerous and failed policies.

As if that wasn’t bad enough, Bill also threw Kamala under the bus by bringing up Lakyn Riley, who was murdered by one of Joe and Kamala’s illegals. He wisely pointed out that Lakyn would still be alive today if that illegal had been properly vetted.

Collin Rugg:

NEW: Former President Bill Clinton says Laken Riley would be alive if Kamala Harris and Joe Biden did proper vetting before letting illegals in. Riley was k*lled by an illegal immigrant who illegally entered the United States in 2022 under Kamala Harris. The comments came while Clinton was campaigning *for* Kamala Harris in Georgia. “A young woman who had been k*lled by an illegal immigrant… if they had all been properly vetted, that probably wouldn’t have happened.”

[Image ID: Tweet from Lakyn Thee Stylist (@/ OgLakyn) on 2023-12-16 reading: The whole ugly sweater thing started because people were finding ridiculously ugly vintage sweaters in thrift stores or even in their family homes. It was the spirit of discovery that made it fun! Walking into Target and picking from a rack of identical ugly knits is so...boring. /End ID]

[nikoxnowak]

Admittedly, cooking wasn't one of Niko's strong suits. He mainly relied on takeout when he could. Baking, however, especially in the fall, was something he felt he excelled at. It was pretty easy to enlist the help of a friend when he needed a taste tester, so he'd immediately chosen to reach out to Lakyn about it. Currently, they were standing in the middle of a supermarket, staring at the rows upon rows of ingredients they’d need to make their pie dreams a reality. “What are we doing here? Are you sure this isn’t a disaster?” he asked her with a wrinkled nose and a soft chuckle. “Do you think we could get away with just buying pre-made filling or does that totally challenge our integrity?” He groaned, approaching the produce on one of the stands.

After a few long shifts at work, Sadie was thankful that she had the day off and she was excited to spend hte day with Lakyn. With Scott watching the kids, the brunette got ready as she tilted her head to Lakyn. Ready to go? There’s like twenty stores calling our name and I need to hit them all.” @iakyn

🙃🖤

🙃 lighter, slightly embarrassing secret: I have a third nipple. It kinda just looks like a small birthmark or even a mole so not many people notice it. 

🖤 something they secretly wish they could do with your muse: Not much of a huge secret, but I’d love to just hang out, get drunk and watch movies with you. Or get drunk then do something stupid like an escape room or .. ping pong.
