I Tried Aerie’s Real Sunnie Bra So You Don’t Have To

Christine Knapp January 2, 2021

I haven’t had a haircut in well over a year thanks to Covid. I want one really bad. I need one even worse. It’s just one of those things I’ve discovered I won’t do during a pandemic. To me, the risk doesn’t seem worth the reward. …

A Leftist Response to Charlie Kirk’s Thanksgiving Rant

Christine Knapp November 18, 2020

Dear Chuck, Can I call you Chuck? Even though this is our first time meeting, I feel like I can. If it’s good enough for Peppermint Patty and Charlie Brown, it’s good enough for us. Am I right or am I right? So Chuck, I saw …

Christine Knapp October 30, 2020

If you’re like me and are looking for a new project to become wildly interested in for a brief period of time, thinking it will take your mind off the deadly pandemic, life altering isolation, and melting polar ice caps, then bullet journaling might be for …

My Teenager Teacher

Christine Knapp October 10, 2020

Acclaimed writer Joan Didion said, “See enough and write it down.” I’d venture a guess she wasn’t going through a pandemic when she said that because I’m not seeing much more than the same four walls these days. Or perhaps she was living the pandemic life …

Homeschooling While Sick

Christine Knapp October 2, 2020

I have this memory in my head, a happy vision of an otherwise grueling time. My ten-year-old towhead, grinning from ear to ear. I can hear the giggles if I close my eyes. His English lesson that day came in the form of a rousing game …

I Read An Amish Romance Novel So You Don’t Have To

Christine Knapp September 26, 2020

Twitter has introduced me to many things I never wanted to know, such as the fact that an alarmingly large amount of men will proudly send photos of their genitals to complete strangers. Men on Twitter also have the capability to turn any mundane tweet into …

What Remains of Summer

Christine Knapp August 15, 2020

If you sit outside and listen to the cicadas scream soon you’ll want to join them. It’s summer, the tail end. The hotter it gets, the louder they screech. Such sweet relief. I envy them. It’s been too long since I’ve spent an evening outside. I …

You’re Right When You Say All Lives Matter

Christine Knapp August 3, 2020

Just like I’m right when I say all children matter. Did your little Tygerlili get straight A’s and you’re posting it all over your social media expecting me to give a crap? Or did that handsome boy of yours, Acksel Jr., run in the winning touchdown …

How Mukbang Saved Me From a Pandemic

Christine Knapp July 27, 2020

I’d basically run out of things to mock. That’s how it all started. I’d already made fun of the pandemic itself, twice over. I’d picked on my husband and all his weird quirks I’ve discovered since he’s been working from home. I took on a mediocre …
