Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

  • The Carrie Bradshaw Rule of Fashion

    When you put on something and think to yourself, “am I too old to wear this,” it’s probably one of the most fucked up moments of life … especially if you just turned 30 like I did. Because when did I get to the point in my life when I thought I was too old…

  • I Kind Of Hate Cat Marnell

    I want to hate Cat Marnell. I really do. She even warns us in the beginning of her memoir, “How to Murder Your Life,” that we will probably end up hating her and her stupid entitled world she lives in. And I wanted to. SO badly. Typical rich kid with daddy issues gets hooked on…

  • Self Care

    The world is a God damn dumpster fire. That’s really all I can say. I literally walked upstairs to pee the other night, and by the time I came back to my couch, the acting Attorney General had been fired for not swallowing a fist full of Trump’s crazy pills. Uhhh…   Logging on to…

  • I Know Why Melania Trump Looked So Miserable…

    I’m seeing all of these articles about how miserable Melania Trump looked at the inauguration, and how people are concerned for her well being because of it.  Umm I know why she was miserable (besides the obvious, but I won’t go there right now). Girlfriend was rocking pointy 4-5 inch stiletto suede heels. No platform.…

  • Tomorrow Is Going To Suck… So Shoes

    If you’re anything like me, tomorrow you will be sticking your fingers in your ears screaming, “LA LA LA LA LA, I CAN’T HEAR YOU,” as you avoid all TV and Internet coverage of the inauguration. Sigh … this is a sick dream, right? Anywho … shoes. Over the past few months I think everyone…

  • Why I Take Birth Control

    I started taking birth control because I was violently depressed and my OBGYN thought it would help balance out my hormones. I didn’t start taking it to whore it up or to get jiggy without the consequences. I did it for my mental health. And you know what? It helped. I cried every day. Every…

  • That Time Topshop Made Me Feel Like A Cow

    I’ll admit it. I have let myself go a little bit. Because I love French fries, and it was the holidays, and I was sick, and blah blah blah, and at the end of the day I gave zero fucks and ate what I wanted. My clothes still fit … I just feel gross and…

  • My Last Day In My 20s

    Yes … sigh… that is me. At age 4 I want to say? Always in heels. You rarely ever caught me without heels on. I would literally walk into a strangers home and ask for a pair of heels. A lot hasn’t changed. I still love my heels. But you sure as fuck will never…

  • (wh)Y Are Dresses So Ugly Right Now?!

    I have a holiday party on the horizon, and even though I have a solid 3 options currently sitting in my closet, I decided to take to the interwebs in search of “the perfect dress.”  You know what I mean when I say “perfect dress” right? That dress you imagine yourself in, walking into rooms,…

  • What Do We Do? The 2016 Presidential Election

    I really was so above and beyond excited to sit here and write this post about how honored and thrilled I am to have a woman FINALLY elected president. I was going to talk about how I was probably still drunk from celebrating, and how my keyboard was covered in happy tears. Welp, my keyboard…

Got any book recommendations?
