We’ve finally reached the end of No-Thoughts-November, and we’d like to formally thank all streaming services for getting us through this difficult time. It’s been a month of one-pot pastas, electric blankets, and donating daily to Starbucks in exchange for lukewarm coffee. The weather may be terrible, but it gives you an excuse to dress like an extra inChalet Girland stomp around town listening to podcasts. Here is everything you can obsess about to distract you until Christmas finally arrives (and let us know what you’re obsessing abouthere). Today's recs are brought to you byFluerine Tideman. You can find her on IG@fluerinetideman. |

If you devoured Jennette McCurdy’s memoir,I’m Glad My Mom Diedlike the rest of us, then you must drop everything and listen to her new podcast,Hard Feelings. This is for the girlies who never let anything go and constantly have their feelings hurt by their dog. (Why won’t he just stay on the couch?!) From abandonment issues to the genius concept of a “doctor week,” Jennette is ready to reveal everything and make us ugly laugh cry. |

Dolly Alderton is our guru when it comes to all things love, friendship, and especially heartbreak. In her latest novel,Good Material, she takes the perspective of the MAN and delivers a hilarious and heartwarming story about when a breakup is for the best. Not only is her narrator called Andy and 35 years old, but he’s a COMEDIAN. If you’ve ever dated a male comedian, don’t do it again, and definitely read this book. If you’re looking for more Dolly to add to your shrine, check outDear Dollyand the classic real-girl memoir,Everything I Know About Love. (And check out ourBetch Lit Society newsletterfor more book recommendations.) |

Our obsession with Dolly got a little culty there, so let’s turn our attention to another beloved: cult documentaries. Nothing is better than staying in on a Friday night and getting your ugly on with a good cult documentary. We’ve been watching the weekly releases ofLove Has Won: The Cult of Mother Godin horror and fascination. It follows the life and death of Amy Carlson and how her fans believed her death would lead to UFOs turning up and salvation for humanity —finally, it took long enough!When Amy Dunne fromGone Girlis no longer the crazier Amy, you know shit’s about to get real. |

GOOD TITS AND A BIG HEART |
As anxiety girlies who are forever searching for the nearest bathroom, we relate to “Tummy Hurt”’ on a spiritual level. But this is just one of the many great hits onSnow Angel (Deluxe). As if she didn’t make us cry enough the first time round, Reneé Rapp is back to hit us right in the feels. We also just want “some recognition for having good tits and a big heart.” But our real favorite track is “Pretty Girls,” which is officially the bisexual girlie anthem going forward. Listen to it on your hot girl walk or everything shower to elevate to a new plane of existence as Amy Carlson did. |

Despite using our Black Honey every single day, we’re still not sick of it and it looks untouched. You might think that would stop us from buying Clinique’s new release,Pink Honey, but you would be sorely mistaken. We immediately bought Pink Honey and now our daily struggle is deciding between the two of them. While you’re on your hot girl walk, listening to Reneé Rapp and thinking about all your grudges, make sure you’re wearing Pink Honey. Our lips have never looked so luscious and it’s like lipstick and lipgloss in one. TTYL, gonna go reapply.\xa0 |
