Are Love Personality Tests Just Another Way To Over-Diagnose Our Relationships?
Are Love Personality Tests Just Another Way To Over-Diagnose Our Relationships?
There was a period in the 2010s when personality quizzes were inescapable. Like One Direction’s boppy tunes, their presence was widespread. Myers-Briggs Type Indicator’s 16 personalities, Buzzfeed’s endless Disney character quizzes, and the re-emergence of love languages allowed us to neatly label our dispositions with catchy names.

These 7 Queer-Owned Businesses Have One-Of-A-Kind Home Buys
These 7 Queer-Owned Businesses Have One-Of-A-Kind Home Buys
We learned a couple things whilst curating this list of queer-owned home and lifestyle brands. Number one: LGBTQIA+ entrepreneurs know how to have fun let loose. From hyper-specific candle scents (hello, Literie’s i bought another house plant) to cow print “Mooka” coffee pots, edible glitter, and more — these queer-owned inventories truly encapsulate joy. Number two: They’re unique. We scouted out retailers serving up herbaceous honey-infused jams, complex spices, empowering spiritual reads, and all sorts of one-of-a-kind lifestyle buys.

Lazy lunch: 30-minute tomato, onion and herb tart
Lazy lunch: 30-minute tomato, onion and herb tart
A sheet of ready-rolled puff pastry makes this a really simple lunch, and although cooking the onions needs your attention, everything else is incredibly low effort,” says Sanjay Aggarwal, author of Spice Kitchen. “Make sure you cook the pastry until it’s a deep, burnished golden-brown; too pallid and it will still be soft and floppy underneath.” Quick tomato, onion and herb tart Serves: 4 Ingredients: 1 tbsp vegetable, sunflower or rapeseed oil 3 red onions, sliced into half moons 1 tsp caster sugar Pinch of salt 1 tbsp Italian seasoning 2 tsp balsamic vinegar 1 sheet ready-rolled puff pastry 500g cherry tomatoes 150g pitted black olives 1 egg (skip the egg wash if you’re vegan, or use a splash of oat milk instead) Handful of chopped fresh parsley Zest of 1 unwaxed lemon Method: 1. Warm the vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the onions over a moderate heat, stirring frequently so that they soften but don’t stick. After five minutes, add the sugar and salt. 2. After another five minutes, add the Italian seasoning and the vinegar and cook for a final five minutes. Set aside to cool. 3. Preheat the oven to 190C fan/210C/410F/gas mark 6½. 4. Unroll the puff pastry sheet onto a lined baking tray and create a border by using a knife to score a line a little way in from the edge (don’t slice all the way through the pastry). 5. Spread the onions over the pastry inside the border, then top with the tomatoes and olives. Beat the egg and paint it over the border. Transfer the tart to the oven and bake for 20 minutes until risen and a rich golden-brown around the edges. 6. Top with the parsley and lemon zest and serve while warm. Recipe from ‘Spice Kitchen’ by Sanjay Aggarwal (Quadrille, £22).
