Open Post: Generation X Beauty is Changing the Game and a Bonus: When Animals Take Out the Trash

Gen X beauty, the cool, detached, slightly subversive aesthetic embodied by women like Winona Ryder, the real Supermodels (Linda, Christy, Naomi, Kate, Shalom, Helena), Sade Adu, Lisa Bonet, Angelina Jolie, and Uma Thurman, to name a few, is having a quiet but very intentional resurgence, and companies are paying attention. This is the anti-performative face of beauty: matte skin, undone hair, minimal fuss, a kind of emotional distance that reads as power rather than effort. In a market saturated with hyper-curated routines, poreless skin, and influencer maximalism that no one with a life has time for, brands are rediscovering the commercial appeal of restraint.  You’re seeing it in campaigns that lean into healthy, realistic skin,  pared-down makeup, and a return to individuality over algorithmic perfection.

OPEN POST: Are You a Bumper Sticker Person?

I have noticed that lately bumper stickers don't seem to be as prevalent as they were, say, 20 years ago. Every once in a while I'll spot a lonely sticker, and take special delight whenever I see a car whose bumper looks like this header photo. Nice to have some reading material when I'm at a red light behind one of these. Have you ever put a bumper sticker on your car? I have seen a few over the years that have tickled me, but it seems like one little bumper sticker says so much about you as a human. They are deeply personal and I don't know if I could commit to one. If you could choose to have one bumper sticker to represent yourself, what would it be?  Feel free to share any memorable ones you've seen over the years! Credit: reddit
