Just about anything creative: music, art, writing. It doesn’t stop me from trying, but it’s clear the creative vision or raw talent that some others have is missing.

One of those colorful windbreakers from the 80s. If you mean clothing that I was the first owner of, a hoodie that’s about 15 years old.

It’s their way of informing you of what happened while you were under anesthesia, without the awkward conversation.

Both. I add my own personal style into outfits that are appropriate for the event I am going to and for the season. I do like the extra attention that comes from dressing a bit fancier, but not at the expense of my comfort and I own very few things that require special care or maintenance.

You need to pour confidently. You can’t let the liquid sense your fear.

I thought you were making a clever pun with “ost” before the edit.

I would just be happy to have a re-start at life and a chance to make better choices. Enjoy simpler times, get a head start on hobbies and passions, see my favorite bands that are no longer around :)

Eventually I would invest in things which would earn me a safety net and extra income (hard to do that as a 10 year old), but not in companies that go against my values. I don’t need to get rich but I would like enough to be able to benefit my loved ones and community. Not the most ambitious, but practical.

The perfect balance of weirdness and wholesomeness. I have this with individual friends but a group chat sounds extra fun.

There are probably a couple of them who would be envious that they didn’t have the opportunity while they were alive. (Not a defense of AI girlfriends, just a joke and semi-relevant meme)

Hemorrhoids are caused by excessive pressure in the veins around the anus and not because they just like to come out when you’re not looking lol.

Besides, people walk around with all kinds of visible swelling/irritations on other body parts all the time when they can’t immediately treat them.

You did a good job of getting the liner on your upper lids close to your lashline and you have a very pretty eye color!

Were you deliberately going for a downturned eyeliner look? I often see downturned eyeliner associated with creating softer and rounder shapes that are easier to achieve with pencil, especially if you’re lining your bottom lid. You can search for tutorials on “puppy eyeliner” if that’s what you wanted to achieve.

If you want to create a wing, you should angle your liner up higher, approximately at the angle from the outer corner of your eye to the outer end of your eyebrow. You can use eye tape or hold a piece of paper to help you draw a cleaner line. Here is a step by step guide on winged liquid liner: Link

I don’t see why you couldn’t have two separate devices - a basic smartphone that has only the apps you need for work (and no other personal information on it such as photos, contacts, etc.) and a “dumbphone” for personal use.

You can use the smartphone without a SIM card if you don’t need to receive calls or texts (some authenticators only require you to enter a code in their app instead of calling or texting you). There are also VOIP and virtual numbers you that you can use on that device if you need call and text features without giving away your personal number.

I like the rugged CAT dumb phones and believe Nokia still makes decent ones.

• Study skills or certifications that can help you advance at work
• Read
• Walk or do light exercises or stretches if conditions allow
• Clean up your files and personal space
• Write down things you need to get done for the rest of the day to buy (if you’re forgetful like me)

Was is Crimson Room or one of its follow-ups?

Thank you for the detailed response! I will see if I can find Bondi Sands sunscreen.

Even though my skin would be fine without tretinoin, I find that it is the only ingredient that makes a significant difference in an otherwise low-maintenance routine.

Good skincare tips, thanks! I heard positive things about Korean skincare products, particularly how they have lighter and less greasy sunscreens. Is there a non-cosmetic one that you can recommend?

For my routine, I wash my face with a cleanser and apply moisturizer in the morning and at night, both from La Roche-Posay toleriane line. At night I use tretinoin 0.025% gel in between cleansing and moisturizer.

I could start an occasional question or discussion on those subjects, although I wouldn’t be able to do it regularly. At the very least, I would be interested in commenting if anyone else decides to post! With a large enough user base, makeup and skincare could eventually become their own communities.

Oh, they almost never taste as good as they look on the packaging, haha. Nothing wrong with simple comforts once in a while. Sometimes I use those odd flavors as inspiration in my own cooking and baking or try to recreate the recipe.

I did a quick search online for caffeine-free energy drinks and saw a brand called Sparking Ice mentioned a few times as having variants without caffeine, as well as Monster Unleaded.

Even though I try to avoid processed snacks, the weird novelty flavors are what tempt me. I support innovation in food :D
