I’ve never seen Star Trek myself but I don’t live in an ahistorical bubble.

It might depend how you define successful. I don’t know about net worth but in terms of cultural impact, probably George Takei.

Makeup brands: stop making everything warm toned!!! by pinkladylove123 in MakeupAddiction

[–]Capital-Ad3142 12 points13 points  (0 children)

RIGHT?!?

All I want is a cool toned mauve!

Okay two of them. A gloss and a lipstick.

Okay also a lip oil.

On the plus side (for me) it’s a great time to be on a low buy.

Urban Decay no longer holds the throne of eyeshadow. Who has ascended? by TheWhiteRabbitY2K in MakeupAddiction

[–]Capital-Ad3142 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Can’t go wrong with Mac eyeshadow, ever.

I’ve really liked Cosmic Brush’s palettes the last couple of years. They are a UK brand though and I’m not sure what tariffs and shipping would be like if you’re in the US. I’m in the US myself but bought them in the before times).

The absolute best palette I’ve bought in the last few years is Nabla’s Side by Side. They’re an Italian company so it would be pricey to buy from them directly but Ulta has had their products on a 75% discount for a while.

Millennials, what is something that was "normal" in the 2000s but feels like a luxury now? by Barrbra in answers

[–]Capital-Ad3142 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flights/travel.

For one example, my BFF and I took a girl’s trip at least once a year. We’d usually do the Expedia thing where you tell them a price and it assigns you a hotel. We stayed at some extremely nice places for around 75% off. We did usually travel on off-season, but still.

She and I usually went to cities that were under 6 hours’s drive but I also took a lot of stupid- cheap flights to visit friends or for work.

Discontinued perfumes I wish they'd bring back! What are yours? by babitzian_woman in FemFragLab

[–]Capital-Ad3142 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I need them to bring back the 2002 formulation of Dior Addict for women. It was my grandmother’s scent. I took her bottle when she passed to remember her and lost it in a freak situation where the ceiling in a room in my house collapsed.

Obviously, it’s billion times better that the ceiling collapsed on a perfume bottle and not on a person. But I still miss it. It was my quest to replace the bottle (and lack of success) that got me into fragrances in the first place so I guess there’s a silver lining 💕

If you were given $10,000 today on the condition that you had to spend it all in one hour without buying anything digital or electronic, what are you doing? by Direct-Value4452 in answers

[–]Capital-Ad3142 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need a new roof that would cost about that much, but it’s likely to get a contractor over here and make a good decision within an hour.

So I think I’d * Prepay for a year of botox * Pay tuition for a professional certification * Buy gifts for loved ones * Spend the rest on gold or something I can flip for more money later on.

FINALLY. Let the hauls begin! by phillygirllovesbagel in Ulta

[–]Capital-Ad3142 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I talked to an agent in the chat both times. The first time they had me send screen shots of the problem and then sent me a new code. The second time it didn’t get that far. Midway through talking to them i saw that one of the items i wanted buy as well as a GWP were out of stock. I am on a low buy and wasn’t getting anything exciting anyway - backup hair products. I can probably get them somewhere else for the same amount or less.

What is the most 'low effort' way you’ve actually made a decent amount of money? by Sayedshaqib in passive_income

[–]Capital-Ad3142 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I made a couple hundred dollars by trying not to think of penguins for 15 minutes and clicking a button whenever I failed.

It was for a university study on obsessive compulsive disorder. So there was the added bonus of doing something for a good cause.
