We begin this week with a sextile between the Sun in Cancer and Uranus in Taurus on the 10th. The Sun in Cancer is known for his emotional valence while Uranus in Taurus is associated with an upending, destructive force. A sextile is a helpful aspect, though its result may […]
When Aldi’s beauty brand Lacura burst onto the scene a few years ago, it caused quite the stir. Launching with a concealer, which looked suspiciously like YSL’s Touche Éclat and a glycolic acid facial toner reminiscent of Pixi’s cult Glow Tonic, the products flew off the supermarket shelves, and arguably, […]

If you’re a movie buff like me, you are all too familiar with the character tropes that still plague much of Hollywood. We’ve seen them all before. The damsel in distress who trips over air in an action movie or the nerd who can never get the girl. But if […]
Thanks for reading Can We Talk?, a sex and relationships column that aims to tackle the burning questions about sex, dating, relationships, and breakups that you’re too afraid to ask your partner — or maybe even your besties.
