Because…lead with your best foot forward, or some shit like that. — I’ve been looking for a new-fangled way to snazz-up ma’ profile, because…I like shiny new things. So, I was looking for a way on Medium to create a guide to your profile. You can pin posts, but that didn't exactly blow my skirt up. I’m a firm believer that if…

Get a job, hippy. — You can manifest ‘til the cows come home — but that ain’t going to put beef on the table. But then again you might be vegan. If you’re unfamiliar with manifesting — it is a verb, with Oxford defining it as “to display or show (a quality or feeling) by…

And you’ll never see a nickel of it. — I wish this headline was clickbait — it’s not. They aren’t technically “stealing” it in a legal definition to sell— but they’re not telling you they’re getting rich off our work (and paying us nothing). I doubt many of us would agree to that. Writer Carmen Ballesteros posted a story…

A long, long, long list of over 200 Medium publications, follower count, and if they’re accepting new writers. — They say if you can’t find what you’re looking for — create it. So here I am, with the list of Medium publications that I have been long looking for. And if nothing else — I now see why it didn’t exist. You have no idea the endless, tedious hours…

Keeping the tags on clothes doesn’t turn your closet into an investment portfolio — If you’re wondering what ‘girl math’ is, it’s magic money manipulations that turn the mathematical laws of personal finance into a drunk bendy straw. It’s where we ladies make up delusional money tricks to defend our ludicrous purchases. It’s really putting the bra in algebra. For example, in the minds…

Humor is hidden all over Medium, right in plain view — Humor writers are an odd bunch of over-ripe bananas. Our weirdness apparently can’t be contained in mere paragraphs, it spills and oozes everywhere. Perhaps this happens because we’re all a bunch of squirrel-chasing borderline schizophrenics who are incapable of a myopic focus on a single point. But we’ll break every…

Advice, cool people, and shits & giggles — When I decided to put my big ole (mustache-free) mouth on video and start YouTube, I knew I wanted to interview fellow Mediumians. How did people get where they are? What makes them tick? What have these Mediumites learned that I haven’t? Aside from curiosity, I also did it because…

Mothers are wonderfully sentimental packrats — I can’t remember how many Mother’s Days ago I put these stickers on my mom’s windows. At least 6 or 7. I was living in Mexico then, and was only here for a visit. Some I placed in obvious spots, so she could see them on Mother’s Day. …

Using these pubs increases your odds of getting that sweet, sweet booster juice — Are you dying of boost envy? Would some booster juice quench your thirst nicely? Or are you just a nosy arse like me? Well step right up folks, it’s a boostapalooza of a listicle coming in hot. I won’t waste too much of your time (just 31 seconds, because…reasons) but…
