I proudly present the internet's nerdiest and prettiest tax calculator. Other calculators just calculate your tax. This one calculates your tax now, and under various Budget proposals. And draws a pretty chart showing the marginal and effective rates for *everyone*.

I've cleaned up this gorgeous Victorian photograph of Dickensian London, overshadowed by the sheer magnitude & dominance of St Paul's Cathedral. It was photographed by John Leighton 166 years ago, back in 1859. I think the mooring poles in the foreground almost lend a Venetian air to the image, and the definition is so high, one can almost zoom right into those warehouse windows!

For the past 10 years I've gone on long walks with my dog. It's the best thing I ever did as I used to be overweight & now I'm not. Problem is my dog is now not able to walk very far & I've started to gain weight again. I've started walking without him & feel like I'm cheating

If I could go back in time, I wouldn’t just hug this young woman. I’d shake her awake. This shoot broke something in me. I’ve mentioned it before, but here’s the raw truth: A wardrobe person called me “the big girl.” Out loud. Like it was normal. Like it was fine to say that to someone’s face. I was handed one outfit, because nothing else would fit my massive size 6/8 frame. I felt humiliated. Exposed. Disgusting. The worst part? This wasn’t rare. It was everywhere. Baked into the industry. Normalized. Passed off as “part of the job.” I was 25, just hoping to be seen for my work. Not defined by my body. When I look at this photo, I don’t see sexy. I see a kid holding back tears, pretending to be okay, trying not to fall apart. And I believed them. I believed I was the “big girl.” Because I’d been hearing it since I was 17. Quiet judgments. Whispers. A studio exec telling my manager I needed to lose weight. It was always there. This shoot wasn’t the first time, it was just the first time someone said it out loud so I could hear. So I did what I always did: overtrained, deprived myself, punished my body. Hoping if I just shrank enough, I’d finally be enough. That woman? She probably forgot what she said five minutes later. But I never did. If I could go back now, I’d say: No. You don’t get to define me. You don’t get to shrink me. And you sure as hell don’t get to act like I should be grateful for the bare minimum. I’d remind that 25 year old she was Starbuck. Strong. Iconic. Unapologetic. And she mattered. It took time. Therapy. Real work to unlearn the lies. But I know better now. And now I’m raising a daughter of my own. A little girl I will make damn sure never questions her worth because of a clothing tag. She will know she’s strong, powerful, allowed to take up space, and worthy. Always. I’ll teach her to prioritize health and strength, not shrinking herself to fit someone else’s idea of enough. Because I deserved better. And so does she. #triciahelfer #gracepark #bsg

My 19 yo built his first structural arch today. Just a small bldg project behind the house but something he will see often as the years go by and reflect.
