  • Resting Bitch Face
    May 26 2026

    Yumi and Jen are EXHAUSTED. Yumi is recording in her pyjamas (but only if you can see from the waist down), and decides to go rogue on today's episode.

    Inspired by Tik Tok and Instagram account I Am Unique Daily, and wondering out loud whether Resting Bitch Face is a superpower or just ...unfortunate?
