Maria Sharapova: Wins Silver at the Olympic Finals.

Another Women’s Gold Medal Tennis Match has come and bit the dust. The Olympic Finals are much like the grand slams of professional tennis, except they have so much more national pride….meaning that most of the viewers are actually watching Tennis for a change.

(Take a look at these photos provided by London2012.com . I don’t know who took these, but I am pretty sure they photographed them with a potato.)

Serena Williams took Gold: Who the Fuck Cares?

Maria Sharapova took Silver This was really beating me up. I frequently state that I am the world’s largest Maria Sharapova fan, not in size…just in the size of my heart! Bam, suck that Williams! Anyway, on a serious note, I was really hoping for Maria to win her first Gold Medal at the Olympics. In the famous words of Will Ferrell “There is nothing wrong with silver,” but fuck that noise, I wanted my Maria to win Gold. Instead, that boring tater salad Serena Williams took gold. That’s the kryptonite of my Olympics.

In other news: hailing from the nation of Belarus, Victoria Azarenka took Bronze. That has to give some hope and glory to the tiny Eastern European nation. As of now Belarus has only 5 medals, and only one gold….so congrats to Victoria for the making some noise for Belarus, and congrats to Maria for gaining silver, and THAT’S IT!

Questions for You:
Seriously, who the fuck took these photos?
Azarenka looks the best.

"Mon Soleil" - Ashley Park

If there's anything people take away from my piss-poor legacy, I hope it's what a huge, unabashed fan of "Emily in Paris" I am and will continue to be. People love "90 Day Fiancee," "The Bachelor," and other garbage - allow me "Emily," which is at least harmless, kind of goofy fluff (which does, unfortunately, lean into some stereotypes, as the country of Ukraine knows ). I have already watched Season 2 twice. And honestly my favorite part of this show (despite my crush on Camille Razart and Lily Collins channeling Audrey Hepburn hardcore ) is Ashley Park. This woman has superstar written all over her. She's a bona fide Broadway star, and "Emily in Paris" has served as her pivot into the zeitgeist. "Emily in Paris" is also showcasing her vocal prowess front and center this season, with her covering BTS, "All By Myself," "Sympathtique," and Marilyn Monroe. But the real standout performance is th

Appropriate Holiday Gift Ideas for the Single Lady

While some people may see it as a drag, there are plenty of benefits to being single during the holiday season. During this time of the year, there are tons of parties you can attend that you may not have had the opportunity to if you were in a relationship. There’s also not as much stress on you as a single gal during the holidays because you don’t have to shop for your partner and extended family members or stress over where to eat Christmas dinner. Not everyone sees the bright side of being fancy free during the holidays, and, tragically, they aren't afraid to let us single ladies know. Not only are single women subjected to even more harassment and ridicule during the holiday season, they’re also given the most obnoxious gifts by those who can’t comprehend how anyone can be both happy and single. Whether it’s a self-help book (desperately) trying to reinforce how great is to be single or the gift of a year-long subscription to Match.com , single women are presented with

"High Tide, Storm Rising" - Skinshape

A new Skinshape LP is on the way as of October 28th! "Nostalgia" promises to delve into the world of motives and motifs. Will Dorey (AKA Skinshape) has described this particular track "High Tide, Storm Rising" as "the main theme song of a movie." And if you have read any of my prior posts, you know I'm a sucker for anything cinematic. Here's a full look at the Skinshape "Nostalgia" track listing: 01. Theme For Lazarus 02. Better Chances 03. Dreams of Panama 04. Moonlight Walk 05. Albion 06. High Tide, Storm Rising 07. Turn Away 08. Bohanon's Cornucopia 09. Bad Dreams 10. Fish & Chips 11. Dawn I would try to include something about live shows, but the soulful likes of Skinahape simply prefer to record and NOT perform live, which is an interesting choice in today's world. Once again, "Nostalgia" is out everywhere as of Oct. 28th.
