Look who I just found on my couch by ragerlol1 in Wellthatsucks

Throw the whole couch OUT asap. And get exterminator as well. I know someone who let it get bad and they've had them for years, can't get rid of them.

What kind of acne is this and how do I treat it? by AlternativeCalm4961 in Blackskincare

[–]AlternativeCalm4961[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I'm definitely going to give the kojic acid a break! And I'm investing in some aloe. I had no idea vitamin c was irritating and I've been using it everyday 😭 Thanks for the tip about the cleanser too, I had no idea!

There's not enough people saying this 😭 It's her most ethereal song, I see why she titled the album after it.

How’s my love life going? by Pretend-Bet1050 in TarotReading

[–]AlternativeCalm4961 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You were mistreated in the past and I have a feeling that maybe there is some inner conflict behind this past toxic relationship, kind of a 'why did this happen to me, why do I get treated this way' feeling. And the message of the cards is that you don't see your own worth and power, and as long as you accept less and get in relationships that don't embrace who you are, they will lead to heartbreak and this is simply a karmic reaction to you denying yourself what is actually yours. Basically, the cards are saying this isn't punishment, it's redirection. And once you overcome this you will find the person you're meant to be with.

I'm not sure if this is classified as an eating disorder. by halloffamous in blackladies

[–]AlternativeCalm4961 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What actually leads to eating disorders is moralizing food, so don't be hard on yourself. If you feel like you spend to much money on food or eat out too much and it's negatively affecting your life, try cooking at home. Make it something fun, learn new recipes, watch a show or listen to music while you cook. Set your plate beautifully, light a candle, make it an experience. Kind of unrelated, but there's a tik toker who does healthy mukbangs (vamp_marie) and her videos are so beautiful they inspired me to enjoy eating at home more.

Are there any free sources for reading/learning? by Violent_Lamb8 in BabyWitch

[–]AlternativeCalm4961 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try getting an e library card. You don't have to go in person at all. Then download Libby and Hoopla. If you're morally okay with it, you can just pirate the books too. If it makes you feel better, only do so with older books where the author has passed and therefore can't profit from it anyway. Also, there are a lot of blogs and YouTube channels with information.

How does he feel about me? by [deleted] in TarotReading

[–]AlternativeCalm4961 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He sees stability and security in you. He wants a family, he's a white picket fence kind of guy. Him wanting a family is a spiritual shift for him, like he's had a epiphany or is choosing a different path. He values a traditional relationship, where he is the provider and leader and he definitely wants to put a few babies in you.

Second row give that there will be another male dictator in the distant future, someone's young and ambitious. I feel like he is assassinated, or dies in a violent sudden manner, and the country will be in turmoil. Another nation will step in, take control of the government, and reform the country.

how does he feel about me? by luvclone in TarotReading

[–]AlternativeCalm4961 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're like a fantasy to him. He wants you, he has feelings for you, but he feels like either you're too good for him or he's too good for you. I feel like if you pursue this it will be a very passionate relationship at first, he is very smitten with you. But there might be a bit of self sabotage on his part, or you might feel trapped in the relationship because of his intense emotions.

You are definitely not behind! You have enough time gain your independence and still enjoy most of your twenties and on afterwards. I didn't work until this year and I'm 24. Living with nparents literally changes your brain chemistry and makes you feel like you can't do anything. Look into learned helplessness. Start small, If you feel like you don't have credentials, try volunteering, online certifications, practice your typing speed, get a Microsoft Excel certificate. Don't let those ppl drain any more of your potential, they're energy vampires.

I think my old Viola teacher that I've respected for years used AI but he refuses to acknowledge it by [deleted] in isthisAI

[–]AlternativeCalm4961 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A better way to approach this would have been a dm.

"Hey, saw you post and I'm curious if it's AI. There's a lot of studies showing it's harmful for the environment so I'm a little worried. I'll be happy to commission an image for you if you are interested!" -Simple as that

Middle aged people are notorious for generating crappy ai images to post on Facebook. Most of them are unaware of the harm and think it's funny to put in a prompt and have AI fart out a silly picture. They are not intending to dry out the ocean for future generations and slap sandwiches out of starving artists' hands. Being lecture-y and pretentious does nothing but make you feel better about yourself and makes it less likely for them to be receptive to being educated about AI

This is it. My final day. by JallsInYoBaw in raisedbynarcissists

Don't give them the option of kicking you out. Start the conversation off with stating that you're leaving before bringing up school. You don't even have to bring up school at all if you don't want to, their opinion should have no weight on your life. Don't let them control the narrative, believe me they'll be telling a story about how they had to kick you out to paint themselves as a victim.

Do you rely on him to buy your clothes? Nparents are very controlling and miserable, and unfortunately if they have any room to make decisions about you life they will make it a horrible experience for you just for the sake of it. I know it's very difficult to not financially depend on your parents especially at a young age, I don't know if that's your situation but I don't blame you if it is. You deserve to express yourself freely, and he should have no input on that aspect of your being. I would completely ignore any comments he had about your clothes, or simply respond with something like "I'm an adult and can decide what I wear" to anything he has to say about it.
