Well, after my brief hiatus I'm glad to see that Mariah made it back Stateside in one piece.  Was rather worried for her, flying through the emotionally fraught skies without her (un)certified ESA dog and all. You're a real trooper!  🙄

[Sandy W]

Not sure what "getting my hair done rn" means, but I hope it includes a shampoo.

rn is right now.

Shampoo was my first thought.

I certainly hope that is the before photo.

I hope she sees that she looks so much better with her natural shade. SO much better! 

[FreemefromTV]

Did anyone else notice Mariah posted a pic with her and Audrey and a middle aged man slightly in the background? She captioned it with something about loving their cameraman. Just as I was about to take a screenshot to post here, it was deleted. 

Could this have been a clue that there will be a next season? Wedding special? 

If it doesn’t have to do with the show, what on earth would they be filming?

[Kohola3]

OMG the hair.  I want the name of that salon she supposedly went to.  People need to be warned.

Seems like throwing axes is a weird thing to do after spending a couple of weeks in Bali learning how to teach (and experience) the calmness of yoga.  

[LilWharveyGal]

Axe throwing is very trendy in hipster circles right now. It probably falls under her definition of "self-care" since you can blow off some steam. Maybe it gave the ESAs the night off.

Yes, very trendy.  I think there are 2 such places near us.   I thought my husband would go for it, but he isn't going to pay $$ to do something he can do for free on some timber land we own.    I am waiting to see the patients on my600pl go to some axe places in Houston.  

Now that I think about it,  I might watch if all the wives went to one of these places and threw axes at a picture of Kody. 

[xwordfanatik]

I read it as "battle-ax."  Seems appropriate for Pudge (and mother Meri.)

Hair:  Yuck.

* I suspected that the calm yoga-life would be a passing phase once she got back to Chicago. But, at least she finished the training and continues to practice yoga (and seems good at it) which is more than we can say for Whitney "WannaBe" Thore (who would take one class and proclaim to be a yogi).

* Well, to be fair, the stylist is only following directions. Mariah probably wanted it to look like a used, dirty mop.

Another view of the hair.  Weird black roots.  

[ginger90]

I wonder if Meri went to BATL too.

It’s nice to see Meri so welcoming to Audrey. She really seems to have accepted her into the family.

[Sofa Sloth]

Nice picture of members from the convention for the unwashed-bad-scrunch-hair-society. I can practically fill the wokeness from lack of deodorant radiating from the image. At least they’ve all upped their eyebrow game by leaving them the heck alone for a change.

So we know Mariah has naturally blonde hair. Here it appears she has darkened her natural blonde roots and lightened the ends of her almost-black, dyed hair. 

Why wouldn't she let her blonde grow out and get lowlights instead? Way less damaging and she could avoid the yellow, brassy, damaging stage of bleaching. Instead she seems to want it to break off and look like yellow straw on those ends. Her hair looks like a mop that was used after a kitchen fire.

What happened was they didn't match the color.  This is the reason I go to the same person to have my hair colored.  She uses  the same color every time to cover the roots and then she adds some highlights.  And I tried several different stylists until I found one who knew what they were doing.

Are there no showers at Soul Cycle?

[Kohola3]

Again with the cutesy feet.  Stop.  Just stop.

[xwordfanatik]

She leaves sweaty and cheesy?  Probably stays that way for days.  

[Sofa Sloth]

The cynical mean part of me thinks they don’t even enter the studio, just show up looking their usual sweaty and disheveled selves, pose for the cheesy photo by the entrance sign, collect the Instagram influencer coin and head straight on to the nearest woke coffee place for avo on toast. Sorry not sorry. 

[Jeanne222]

Gosh she looks soooo much like daddy when she smiles. 

[Absolom]

It's that or she's trying to look as disgusting a possible because people talk about that more.

There are at the one near my house! I got a 3 pack to try SC out after they opened and I prefer the cycling classes at my regular gym. $32 a class. Yikes.

Plus the whole seemingly random replacement of letters with "x".  Sometimes x is used for an e, sometimes for an s.  Is there some sort of guide for this that I haven't read yet? 

I am obviously missing the symbolism because, frankly, it just looks stupid to me.  None of my gay friends or relatives does that kind of stuff.

I’ve never seen it either Kohola. Either we just aren’t woke enough for the symbolism, Mykelti wrote the caption for her or she was temporarily blinded by her heinous shoes or mop hair when typing. That’s all I can come up with. 

[ginger90]

The x in woman and folks is to make it inclusive. How would one pronounce womxn, though?

[DakotaJustice]

Its like they intentionally want to shock everyone.

I’m all for inclusivity and equal rights, but surely this can be conveyed using existing words and using traditional spelling. Here’s hoping her special snowflake stupidity doesn’t catch on and override centuries of correct language and spelling.

But inclusive of whom?  Aren't people just people? Aren't folks just folks?   Isn't a gay woman still a woman unless there has been surgery involved? 

I'm not being argumentative.  I truly don't understand that whole thought process.  I don't see the point at all.

The only thing I find shocking is that they apparently didn't go to Disneyland with Meri.

I kinda get womxn (doesn't depend on man for your identity) but folx COMPLETLEY baffles me.  Isn't folks all-inclusive?  It doesn't denote men in any way.  

Spoiler tag because I don't know how it got there or how to get rid of it.

[Nysha]

Why does she do that weird squinty, wide-mouth smile? It looks like the fake smile my toddler grandchildren give when told to smile for the camera.

[xwordfanatik]

Whoa, I'm going to be snarky here.  Sludge looks to have put on a few.

Obligatory child-grin and rainbow shoes on Pudge.  "Isn't that special?"  

That "x" crap bugs the shit out of me.  Enough already!  That's it!  I'm getting the hose out. Now get the H off my lawn, you pretentious little brats!

Yeah, it also could be to take the word "men" out of women.  I don't know, just a thought.

Here in the Bay Area, Pride is a huge fun party! I participated in the SF parade in 2017 and planning on doing the same this year. Such a blast 😌

There’s a place in Seattle where you can DRINK and throw axes. I can’t wait to go!
