The break-up was rough, but looking around the house, the realization hit me: enough time had passed. The house felt hollow, the memories mere echoes as the walls finally exhaled. It was time for a new beginning. A new dawn that can only commence at the ultimate church of eclectic, spirited commerce: World Market. I started small—replacing our antique China with vivid Moroccan flatware that seemed kissed by the sun, swapping the boring coffee table with a teakwood piece who's carved inlays most assuredly had stories to tell. The sleek, curated house slowly gave way to joyous chaos and vibrant international hues: I bought handwoven baskets from Chile, glass incense holders from Bangkok, a wine decantor shaped like a pineapple that said, "Why am I shaped like a pineapple? Let me counter your inquiry with one of my own: why are you shaped like a human?" One night, while nestled snuggly on the Brazilian velvet sectional under the glow of a copper Turkish lantern, I laughed—genuinely, stupidly, fully—for the first time in months. Healing, it turns out, doesn’t always mean moving on; sometimes it means turning your break-up into a credit card-fueld World Market fever dream.

About the Podcast: The  Bald and the Beautiful with Trixie and Katya features a pair of  grizzled gay ghouls sitting on chairs, holding microphones, and  discussing their fabulous lives in Tinseltown. (featuring occasional  forays into movies, television shows, and air-conditioning) The New York  Times called them models, moguls, actors, influencers, drag queens,  RuPaul's Drag Race contestants, and even humanoids. If one thing can be  said about these two preternaturally gorgeous queens' podcast, it's that  Trixie and Katya find the sheer, unadulterated beauty of pure insanity.  Tune in every week to experience the auditory pleasure that is The Bald  and the Beautiful with Trixie and Katya.
