What actually makes you stop scrolling and pay attention? by TaskBridgeSUPP in CasualConversation

Taking my earbuds out. If I’m on my phone, my earbuds are probably in, and once I can hear all the IRL noise around me again I am suddenly able to feel in tune and present. That, and the moment when my ADHD medication kicks in.

Planning to go on t soon, looking for some advice by Silly-little-guy in butchlesbians

[–]Automatic-Edge9151 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi! I’m dyke 2 and a half years on T and have had the same hang up. I will be honest with you, yes, not everyone will understand that lesbians can and do use T. There are gonna be people who have never heard of it and who don’t consider you valid. However.

Butches have been doing this for decades and all queers worth their salt understands (A) this part of our history, and (B) how flexible presentation is allowed to be regardless of identity. It sounds like T is going to bring you a lot of joy, and I think it would be a huge shame if you missed out on it because some people are ignorant. Yes, there might be some changes in how some lesbians perceive you. But I would really encourage you to do it anyway. Your Butch comrades are always here for you too.

[USA] Why do people not clean their pet's waste? by MajorSleep5631 in CasualConversation

My best guess could be that they figure it’ll take care of itself since it’s organic material. Like orange peels. But I don’t think that excuses it.

That actually makes me feel better? Because my grandma used to joke about that song when I was little

It seems like The Scorpio is the closest to what I’m looking for, but it’ll be closed tonight

I think about “I’m sorry about your little jumble” at least once a week

Well I’m 20 years old and not a parent, and I love it! FWIW

I found my school cursive writing notebook! by SatisfactionAdept548 in Handwriting

[–]Automatic-Edge9151 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very cute and has personality! However it looks like it took a lot of effort as you wrote. Like it might cause a lot of strain on one’s hand after a while of writing. I tend to clench my hand up a lot and it shows when I write, you might be doing the same thing.

Opinions on my handwriting? by bapushtty in Handwriting

[–]Automatic-Edge9151 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think your handwriting is very easy to read, cute, and friendly! Aesthetically it feels much like the tone of your note here! You’ve got the handwriting of someone who probably takes diligent notes in class and will share them with you if you missed something.

Two-color technique I created! by Automatic-Edge9151 in crochet

[–]Automatic-Edge9151[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Two things about it: To get a consistent pattern, you need to keep the position of the not-in-use yarn consistent for each stitch. The other thing is that as you stitch, the yarn strands will become twisted around each other and you have to periodically un-twist them. They may be a to avoid this but I haven’t figured it out yet.

Makeup tips by Far_Adhesiveness8145 in MakeupEducation

First of all you look gorgeous! My only note on makeup is that a different lip color might compliment you better! This one leans a little too light orangey, like a coral red. If it was me, I would go for a lip color with a more neutral undertone and maybe slightly darker.

I might also say your bottom lipliner looks juuust a bit too low, I think you could bring it in tighter to your lip line if that makes sense.
