This week! Cohabitation with other women your age, learned hypervigilance from anticipating everyone else's needs, over-identifying with this stage of life, cross-generational conversations, silver-haired grunge concerts, and reconnecting with your personal style. Plus: Jenn has an encounter with a Liza Minelli impersonator who's also a medium and finds she just might be psychic-proof.

This week! Jenn has a surprise (self-inflicted) black eye, and we're talking all about emergency contacts, community, communal living, LinkedIn overhauls and outfoxing the bots, the AI apocalypse, gaining hope, losing hope, how the vices are turning on us, daytime television, and — sorry!— remaining, despite our best intentions, miserable as f*ck. Plus, when your feed is filled with baby animals and also aggressive pet tortoises who (surprise!) are meaner and hornier than you may have ever imagined.

This week! Accidentally twinning, cosplaying as real professionals, plans after 7:30pm, why Jenn wants to live in a village, the tyranny of private equity, brushing your dog's teeth, the sorry state of women's healthcare in 2026 America, and being forced into tech we hate. Plus: High school reunions, RIP Classmates.com, why men are "scentmaxxing" in their own funk and a whole lot more!
