anyway, welcome back (okay, presumptuous of me!!!) to sent from my iphone with love, your hot links to epic things that i have found On The Line and the irl bit, which is hot reccos for Real Life Living™.
that’s my president!
this is the online bit:
gabrielle #5, gabrielle
this is a really great piece about cinema post #metoo and on screen sex and jeremy allen white’s underwear commercial. i also was obsessed with this insight for men’s beauty standards versus women’s.
Ironically the result of all this striving for physical perfection is usually a Men’s Fitness type of look that’s mainly attractive to other men. That’s the difference, ultimately, between your Jeremy Allen White’s and your average MCU actor. It’s not about how stacked you are, but the implied means by which you got there. Jeremy Allen White looks like he got his arms by laying bricks and doing pull-ups on scaffolding. Paul Mescal actually got his thighs by playing Under-21s Gaelic football. These are men in men’s business, or so we like to believe.
also this was a phenomenal burn lol.
For all the shit spewing out of Andrew Tate constantly, one of the most revealing things he’s ever said is “Eating sucks [...] I hate eating. I hate feeling full” – a quote so self-loathing in such a classically feminine way you could layer it over a selfie of a 16-year-old girl smoking and it would do numbers on anorexia Tumblr.
i asked for some podcast recommendations and almost everyone said ride and i get it nowlike honestly it’s some perfect gay brain rot.

this mix really picks up a little before the 2hour mark, where there’s this epic dubbed out version of superstar. then it closes out on a space cowboy version of superstylin’… delicious…
this is the irl bit:

my friend from work recommended me this book and so i bought it without reading the blurb. when i started it i was like “did you think i’d like it because it’s gay” and then he got awkward about things because he’s one of those straight guys that are so aware of not doing the wrong thing. anyway, i put him out of his misery by being like “because that’s honestly a good enough reason”.
it’s so good that my screen time has gone down 30% this week. it’s so good that i am having to put it down and look away because i’m so invested. it’s so good that i have snorted aloud multiple times.
yum <3
pickling onions
i’ve watched enough nara smith videos now that i just, like, “made pickled onions”. to be clear- i’m talking about pickling red onions, not those god awful eyeball looking ones. those are gross.
i can’t quite tell if pickling your own food is giving armish-cottage-core-middle-ages-princess-fantasy,-white-blouse-unbuttoned-heaving-breast-core or it’s like some prepper shit but whatever see if i care! this is who i am now!
pretty in pink!
