If weeks can have theme music, this one was set to the tune of Fleetwood Mac. I listened to \u201cGypsy\u201d dozens of times, imagining it playing over a scene from the movie version of my life. What songs do this to you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The People Who Eat the Same Meal Every Day<\/strong><\/a>
[raises hand]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDepending on the context, eating the same thing every day can come off as a moderately charming quirk, an indictment of one\u2019s lack of creativity, or a signal of professional focus and drive.

Whatever the symbolism, these people\u2019s behavior is not doing them harm. Marion Nestle, a professor of nutrition and food studies at New York University and the author of several books about nutrition and the food industry, says the consequences of eating the same lunch every day depend on the contents of that lunch and of the day\u2019s other meals. \u2018If your daily lunch contains a variety of healthful foods,\u2019 she says, \u2018relax and enjoy it.\u2019\u201d

There\u2019s No Such Thing as a \u2018Real\u2019 Woman<\/strong><\/a>
Something I have thought about\u2014and been troubled by\u2014for years now: \u201cIf only some women can be categorized as \u201creal,\u201d what becomes of the women outside those boundaries?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even for the brands that market to \u201creal\u201d women with more sizes, the result is still pretty clear. These ads wrest the mantle of cultural approval from one subset of women and bestow it on another, a transfer of power that will hopefully be met with grateful sales dollars. In doing so, the campaigns validate one set of people as the truest to a nonsensical concept. For \u201creal women\u201d to be a useful idea, people have to grant that it\u2019s possible for a person\u2019s womanhood to be fraudulent. You can remove digital retouching, but there is no objectively correct way to depict a woman in a photo, or for a woman to present herself in real life.\u201d

Bikram (30 for 30)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bikram Choudhury\u2019s fitness revolution brought a yoga boom to America. But his guru status enabled increasingly dark behavior. Julia Lowrie Henderson, a former Bikram devotee, delves deep into the complicated, cult-like world of Bikram Yoga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WATCH<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The OA Season 2<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you haven\u2019t seen the first season of The OA, drop everything and go watch it (on Netflix). It\u2019s unlike anything I\u2019ve ever seen\u2014fantastical, suspenseful, moving, and, well, kind of strange. It\u2019s the kind of show that keeps you on the edge of your seat\u2014an epic ride the whole way through. I\u2019m halfway through the second season now and I\u2019m already sad that it\u2019ll be over soon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
