OPEN POST: For the Love of Boa

By
Aretha Franklin

Today's post is a love letter to a beloved, timeless accessory: the boa. Dating back to at least the early 1800s, this fashion favorite was named after the snake of which it resembles. My current regret in life is having never experienced the eleganza of wearing one of these beauties, so on the bucket list this year it goes. If you happen to see me strolling down the avenue and the fashion is just too much for you, you'll just have to excuse my beauty!

I love my headline here. It reads like something out of some shameless 50s tabloid headline about an alien boy hidden away from the world because he has the head of a 4-month-old infant. Well, in his ever more bizarre quest for youth, the disturbed but too rich to go broke in his absurd waste of money, 2 million this year alone, Bryan Johnson has discovered what us vain bitches have known for a while. He could have paid me a cool million to quietly whisper in his ear, "Hey, Bry, loss of fat in your face can age you." No duh?

This genius has a team, and his goal is to "bio" hack aging, having once absconded with the blood of his teenage son to trick his middle-aged cells or some such nonsense.
