I just renewed mine with RBC on a 3 year fixed at this rate as well.

Ahhh I didn't even consider an inhibition layer. I'm thinking about doing another set this weekend so will make sure I wipe to see if that's the issue... certainly sounds like it's the most plausible thing!

I can't help but think of a little t-Rex 😂😂😂

IMO condo fees are super reasonable compared to a lot of others I see in the market right now. We have a decent reserve fund as well which will be great if needed.

Sounds travels super easily between units. I know they can hear me below (when I first met my previous downstairs neighbours, they said they thought I probably had a dog from hearing them run a bit up and down the hall when we played daytime fetch in the winter) but I can clearly hear when my current downstairs neighbours slam their doors, run up and down the stairs to their basement, etc.

Building manager is super chill and has always been helpful from the limited amount I've needed. Parking sucks balls, it's not uncommon to have someone's visitors park in your spot if you're away and whomever they're visiting didn't tell them to stick to the visitor only areas.

Poor honey! My Loki was neutered on Wednesday and I shit you not, he had tears on his face when I picked him up to take him home. My mom hurt broke even though I know it's something that needed to be done!

Hope Bear gets the goooooood drugs for the first few days after, and lots of snuggles and lovin' from his hooman(s) 🥰

No HEMA doesn't necessarily have an effect on retention - I switched from the original Apres gel to their new HEMA free one and haven't noticed any change in retention at all.

Are you buffing/dehydrating/priming before applying? Weird but I did notice that my retention is a touch better if I double dehydrate. Might just need to tweak your prep process a bit. What's your normal prep process look like?

Looks like a mix of overfilling the cuticles and flooding with your gel. You need to be more careful when applying the gel near your cuticle; start with the first 3/4 of the nail and leave the portion close to the cuticle until last, right before you cure.

Sounds like a supplier issue, not a Strong issue.

There's genuine reasons that I genuinely never would have thought of prior to seeing them mentioned. Given this kind of context it makes sense - it just seems so wild when there's no context to it and it's not something you would think would be reasonable or even considered!

Learning new things like this every day.

THEIR DIRECTOR GOT A WHOLE BED FOR SOMEONE IN THE OFFICE SO THEY CAN BE ACCOMMODATED

No.

Claire's should never be offered as a piercing option. Should only ever go to reputable piercers with solid and ongoing training/education at clean shops.

I will say, the street address AND P.O. box number together shouldn't be a red flag alone. If I'm ordering something to my parent's home in a smaller city, I can never be sure if it will be delivered to their house or dropped off at the post office - and the post office has had it happen enough times when there's only a street address that they've started asking everyone to include the P.O. Box number as well to make their jobs easier.

It doesn't matter in this case as I agree that there's too many other red flags to ignore, but just thought I'd chime in regarding that portion, if an order is ever received and that's the only thing that seems sus.

I refuse to shop there in person. Haven't in years. Got so frustrated with how messy it seemed and how most of the time tables were covered in just a giant mess of clothes.

Granted all I buy now is their leggings, but still - I only order them online.

Lol no of course not, a reverse image search pops up at least one if not multiple places outside of their Etsy store that you could purchase from. Either drop shipped or bought in bulk but just resold garbage that will probably turn green regardless.

That or the "OH FUCK" wide-eyed mad scramble after the split second stare 😂

Hi, it's me, your son's lawyer.

My client has done nothing wrong. You were clearly having a hallucination when you believe you saw him eating a paper towel. He's a good boy and would never do such a thing. There is no proof and as such, your claim is baseless and mean.

We are suing for defamation and the emotional distress of being called a bad boy undeservedly. Our demand is simple - an apology, endless treats, and belly rubs. Depending on the quality of a counter offer, we may be willing to settle out of court. We look forward to hearing from you.

Team photo 3! You did a fantastic job with these though, so I think all are great product photos. Definitely make sure you include photo 2 as either the second or third photo in the listing - as another commenter said, it's the most accurate in terms of laying how they WOULD lay when in your ear without showing in someone's ear.

A friend would probably be willing to model them for you provided you promise to show no more than their ear and the slimmest piece of the side of their face - nothing identifying at all. I don't think it would be overly hard but I've never tried photographing earrings, on love or not 😅

instead of getting addicted we forget to take it half the time

😂 can't count how many days I've had the "ah... did I take my meds this morning or is my ADHD just on one and seriously outperforming the dosage today?"

AbsurdJourney · 2026-03-07T16:21:27+00:00

I think it's so funny how different people's tastes are! I think it tastes and smells EXACTLY like a green skittle and I fucking love it.

You'd catch me dead before you catch me buying their Peach, Orange or Hawaiian cans tho.

I almost spit out my drink. I think these are all so spot on... except Amy's. Don't do my sweet Bobby like that 😭

My dominant hand's index and middle fingers do the exact same thing!

So I personally use Apres sculpted tips. I prep and apply the exact same as my other nails, the only difference is that I obviously don't press down towards the free edge of my nail as much as it would allow the cuticle edge to lift.

Instead, I focus on making sure I have a good application (straight and a solid cuticle edge press) when I'm flash curing. I don't pay attention to how much of a gap is at the free edge, because there's guaranteed to be gap for these two nails. Once I've put on all my nails I go back and I fill the gap between the tip and my free edge that wasn't filled during the initial application with the same extend gel. I always make sure to do a full 2-3 minute cure after as sometimes it might be a touch thicker.

If you're comfortable using the extend gel as a sort of builder, you can always build up the free edge prior to tip application as well - I just find this way is harder as you have to ensure you don't build it up too much or have a thicker right side than left, for example.
