The only thing that can snap me out of a spiral is to talk to someone I trust. Either a loved one or a therapist.

You and your pronouns are ofc valid, but it's unfortunately not feasible to go into everyone's profile in a forum like this.

So yeah it's probably your field! Sorry about that. Fwiw I don't think the problem is that it isn't 'hard science', I find it easy to find philosophical works (German, English and French language ones). It's probably just too niche.

I used to live way outside of town and there weren't any night buses on weekdays, so I got a moped at 15. I just didn't drink at all when I hung out with friends on weekdays, even when I turned 16 and it became legal, because I had to drive. It wasn't hard to do and nobody batted an eye. So, the alternative is not drinking. Having no alternative transport is a poor excuse for drunk driving.

Edit: tangent point the above image in the post reminded me of.

For every person who thinks they're interesting for hating a popular thing, there's ten who will be like OMG YOU THINK YOURE SO SPECIAL AND BETTER THAN EVERYONE when you casually mention you don't particularly care for a popular thing.

That'd also harm big corporations less than small, independent artists who don't get paid as much per use of their artwork.

Under capitalism, copyrights are a necessary tool for people to get paid for their labour in some cases. That's not the most common usecase for copyrights, but a needed one until we get a better system. Fuck copyrights being used for corporate greed though. Somehow, more people are against the former than the latter, which is super wrong. But it's not a reason to be against the former in addition to being against the latter.

That is an aggressively shitty way to present that data

Idk if itll help but have you tried annas archive? It mirrors multiple science piracy sites.

Edit:do you mean pedagogical materials or research? Cause I don't think you'll be lucky if it's the former.

I'm both like you and a fidgeter myself. It sucks. I do try to fidget subtlely- I like rubbing my fingernails with the thumb of the same hand.

Huh I thought since most are moisturizing that they were basically lotion with extra sun protecting ingredients!

 

Hey fellow enbies!

Does anyone here have experience with binders? Specifically, do they permanently alter the shape of your chest? I like my naked body and view is as gender neutral, but I'd like to be READ as more neutral while wearing clothes sometimes. So I want to bind in a way that won't alter how my naked body looks. What's your experience with that?

Thanks!

 

I held out hope and waited for her to grow into a teen but it only got worse! I did match them up because I find them both snobby but why does she literally LOOK punchably rich and arrogant?

I used to be super lazy and not take anything. Just lived with the tight feeling of my face after washing it with shower soap. The only cosmetics I'd take were always deodorant, tooth paste, tooth brush, shower soap. Hair was washed with the shower soap, too.

These days I take proper face wash, my moisturiser, sun screen (I've never gotten a sun burn, so I used to not be diligent about this), floss, and, if it's more than like 3-4 days, shampoo.

If it's for a fancy event like a wedding, I'll bring conditioner and the small number of makeup products I'm going to wear (eyeliner and/or lipstick. I don't do base and have black lashes and eyebrows).

The only cosmetics i usually use that I'm not bringing: (sometimes) conditioner, retinol serum, BHA peel, the clay I use for clay masks and cuticle oil. I use hand cream, but only when I teach, because the chalk dries my out like nobody's business. So I keep the cream at work. I do keep the cuticle oil, retinol and bha at my partner's place because I sometimes stay there for two weeks or longer, remote working.

I think it'll be a different story when I go backpacking!

How about you? What do you bring? What things that you usually use do you not bring?

ETA: actually going away for four days right now, somehow I packed my cuticle oil but forgot my floss! I guess I'm not consistent haha.

 
 

I posted asking how to make a sheer pearlescent polish appear less sheer. Many people replied I should try putting it over a darker polish. Thanks for the advice everyone! I did that with this purple I had on hand (I'm at my partners, where I keep a smaller collection of nail polishes).

As I suspected, it almost completely drowned out the purple hue you can see in the bottle (image from original post below). It's kinda pretty in its own right though. What I don't like is that you can tell that the purple isn't completely even, as tends to be the case with only one coat of a darker colour. Can't do more coats without it peeling, either.

I think I might try a light colour underneath next, to see whether that makes all the shades in the bottle show up!

 

It's three coats of colour for a total of five coats. Any more than that usually peel for me.

 

Hi there! I've tried researching this myself, but found myself overwhelmed because I'm simply not knowledgable enough.

I've got a 20 year old 50cc vespa. I got this idea in my head that I should convert it to electric, since getting a new vehicle has such a huge environmental impact. The battery is on its last legs, and I'm not so sure about the engine either, and I was thinking I'd convert instead of replacing the existing parts. I'd like to keep it at a similar power bc that way, people who don't have a motorcycle license could legally drive it, too. (If they have a car license.)

Has anyone done anything like this or has some other pointers?

TIA!

 

A red button. Image says: 'Would you press the button?' [results of pressing the button:] there exists a pill that makes your disability a LOT less debilitating BUT it's near-impossible to get because the non-disabled enjoy taking the pill for fun and the government doesn't want them to.

 

I hope this is how cross posts work

 

I know, not all omnis. But this is based on personal experience.

 

Two part meme. Part one is a crying young person who looks like they're desperate to get someone to understand something. Caption: 'Me explaining why I can walk fast and run but can't stand or walk slowly well'. Part two is a super annoyed looking, slightly older person. Caption: 'people still assuming I'm lying out of laziness'.

 

I'm aware that I, the consumer, won't change the world and that we need structural change.

Still, I've been wondering. I've come to learn that plastic recycling is largely a myth/scam, but what about glass and metal recycling? Also, what happens to the plastic coating on metal during recycling?

TIA
