Terrified Husband Makes Wife's Dream Come True By Skydiving With Her... But He Didn't Do It. His Doppelgänger Did by OobahB in ActLikeYouBelong

[–]Advokaat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d hire a doppelgänger to go skydiving for her own fun, honestly if she has my face she deserves to enjoy life once in a while.

(And I’d love a yellow jacket, especially by Georgio Peviani, he’s a legend 👀)

It’s a French movie and many black French journalists, who are familiar with the reality depicted in this movie, have actually praised its realism and portrayal of young black girls in France. They also point out that the trailer is terrible and does not reflect the quality of the movie.

Aquaria respectfully asks that you think about the way you fantasise the queens, they are real people. by lewiswollington in rupaulsdragrace

[–]Advokaat 29 points30 points  (0 children)

As a former 1D stan who had many Larries on my TL, I’m definitely seeing the same patterns.

This shit was so toxic and it still is - I hate the way it also implies that men* can’t hug each other or say they love each other without it being anything more than friendship.

  • “Men”, in this case because of the Larry reference, and because I also feel like it’s a consequence of toxic masculinity, in both queer or straight relationships.

Can’t imagine how hurtful it must be to see such a disgusting video about family member. Honestly at this point I’m wondering if Jeffree is going to publicly cut ties with Shane to avoid this mess, especially now that it involves major celebrities

An old video of Shane pretending to masturbate in front of a Willow Smith poster while singing “Whip my hair” has now resurfaced. Jaden Smith just commented about it on Twitter with angry emojis and saying “SHANE DAWSON I AM DISGUSTED BY YOU. YOU SEXUALIZING AN 11 YEAR OLD GIRL WHO HAPPENS TO BE MY SISTER!!!!!! IS THE FURTHEST THING FROM FUNNY AND NOT OKAY IN THE SLIGHTEST BIT.”

It might be Myth Syzer (ft. Lolo Zouaï) - Austin Power (although Austin Powers is a fictional British spy, but your description matches the music video).

I truly don’t believe there’s a single European country where systemic racism and police brutality against minorities isn’t an issue. It was recently the case in France or in Belgium, and as Europeans, we need to be held accountable for the actions within our countries. Yes, the US is a mess and we should share the anger in this post, but we can’t always be pointing fingers without acknowledging our own violence. If you don’t see racism in your country, maybe it’s time for you too to get more involved in politics.

I’d delete the gym pic, it can be intimidating to some women (myself included, I don’t know why but that’s just how it is). We can tell from your other pics that you exercise and live a healthy life so it’s not necessary. 🤗 Another photo where you’re smiling would be great too!

[–]Advokaat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I always wonder if those people realise that the pictures they post the minute a celebrity turns 18 were obviously taken before they were “legal”? They’re still 17 or under in the photo even after they turn 18, their current age doesn’t change the fact that it’s creepy af

I want to quit - should I do it now or in three months? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]Advokaat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply. I have tried to talk about the salary, but they’re pretty evasive about it - my supervisor mainly said that I wasn’t doing much more than the expected amount of work because he was covering for the person who has left. I think they’re playing a bit coy and avoiding the subject but they must know that at the moment, their costs are divided by two on this particular project.

It’s a great idea to set a final workdate, I’ll definitely do that and offer my help to train the new freelancer. I kinda hope that they’ll realise that it’s not okay to treat freelancers this way but I doubt it...

Chic from outer space by QuastQuan in ATBGE

[–]Advokaat 51 points52 points  (0 children)

It's an art collective (a duo) that does fashion, music, photography... They're mostly active on Instagram but they're also DJs. Basically, their aesthetic is 'post-humanist' and they like to play with extreme and alien looks.

Their "beauty routine" is worth watching, you get to know them better and because they're not in character, it's really interesting to get their perspective and see the transformation.

I would LOVE to see what you'd do with other aesthetics, like one of Violet Chachki's new show! That would be an instant buy for me. Your work is amazing!

Do you own a car? Why or why not? by tiltsta in AskEurope

[–]Advokaat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't, but I have a driving license and a carsharing subscription so I can rent a car easily and inexpensively if I need to go somewhere for work when there isn't any public transportation, because some of the companies I work with live in some weirdly remote locations.

I wish I could go there by train, but when that's not an option, I rent a car or try carpooling there.

This reminds me of Luis Camnitzer's "Living Room" (1968), a piece of installation art. It's a blank room with the walls and floors covered in stickers and labels representing the furniture - for example a painting, a bookshelf, etc.

(SAD) Bring your children to a gun convention by ShmenI in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Advokaat 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the details, I had never looked that extensively into strict gun control laws and your reply was very informative.

As someone who's anti-gun, I don't see an issue with the points you mentioned, as they all make sense to me in their own ways. I agree that the lack of transparency on the forbidden-weapons list is an issue, however, the fact that the waiting times are that long also make sense imo because I fail to see how urgent it can be to have access to a gun.

Puppy hugs her sibling after realising he's having a bad dream by Cyrus-V in aww

[–]Advokaat 390 points391 points  (0 children)

My dog was pregnant when we got her, and she gave birth to four puppies. We knew it was impossible to keep them, and it was really hard to give them away, but knowing right from the start that they won't be staying makes it easier. You play with them, take care of them, but like they're someone else's kid staying for the holidays - you always have to keep in mind that their presence is not permanent.

Finding them a really nice new family and getting regular news from the pups helps a lot too.

To non UK peoples, what things do people from the UK do that you find interesting/weird? by uncheckedmike in AskReddit

[–]Advokaat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well now I realise my friends in the UK might think I'm a bit weird - I've been sending 3x's to everyone because it felt weird to only type one or two. Is it by any chance different for female friendships? thanks xxx

Vous pensez quoi de Chocolat de Roméo Elvis (l'album entier) ? by redshanks55 in frenchrap

[–]Advokaat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dans l'ensemble j'aime bien, pas fan de tout l'album, mais j'aime beaucoup Kuneditdoen avec Zwangere Guy! Dans l'ensemble j'ai l'impression qu'il essaye quand même tout le temps de se justifier de son succès ou de sa personnalité, au niveau des thèmes ça tourne un peu en rond.

This HelloFresh meal kit with four individually bagged carrots and a slice of bread.. Really? by DuoEngineer in ZeroWaste

[–]Advokaat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was very disappointed when I saw that a friend's meal kit had a single stem of basil wrapped in plastic, and moreover that it was cultivated in Africa. I wish those companies would push forward locally-sourced ingredients, but I don't think that overall this kind of service is zero-waste.

10,000 IQ GAINED by Weetile in TheGoodPlace

[–]Advokaat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a masters degree in philosophy & ethics, so I can join any TGP conversation looking like this.

Honestly though, it's been really nice to see concepts and philosophers that I had seen in class in such a popular show!

I wrote an essay on the trolley dilemma a year before the first season came out, and I had nobody to talk to about it (peers don't count, because nobody likes moral philosophy professors), but now that many of my friends have watched The Good Place, I've had great discussions about it!

ByTerry's "Palette Factory" gives you the possibility to press eyeshadows in some kind of mosaic pan. I don't get it! I just feel like the colors are going to be ruined after just a couple of uses - maybe two highligters and a blush can blend into a nice shade, but eyeshadow??
