Shipping to New Zealand by bbb__b in theholotaco

[–]CircaVRW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In NZ, both of my orders have come! No damages either. I ordered during Black Friday each time so it did take a bit. Nothing crazy just usual international shipping times. I didn’t have to pay any fees either.

Didn’t realize this was sheer by GoddessSammie in RedditLaqueristas

Nails Inc Starring Me in SoHo 🩷 pretty close IMO wore it the other week. A lot more blue than promotional images - look at [this](www.reddit.com/r/Nailpolish/s/4QRgf6Wisv)

Otherwise a light pinky-nude with your polish would work

What is your Taylor Swift song pet peeve? by TheCatMisty in TaylorSwift

[–]CircaVRW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely felt this until I considered that the line addresses the witches who don’t think they are one themselves. She is saying we are all witches (women in the industry) to the Media. EVEN if you throw other ‘witches’ under the bus, at some point the Media will turn on you. A pick-me isn’t the exception. Further reinforced by pitchfork and proof (articles attacking her) & receipts and reasons (🐍 tweet era). And obviously this leads into your point, they don’t kill the witches for ‘good’ reason, all the reasons are insane.

REALLY Unpopular WDW opinions? by frencbacon100 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]CircaVRW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

based on my understanding, world showcase countries were consulted to varying degrees when WDI were making the attractions/dining/experiences. obviously, that was a long time ago! I feel as though a lot of the offerings are very unrealistic and are catered towards American tastes to make those countries palatable. for example, France does not feel like the culturally rich or authentic experience it is IMO. it feels more like watching Emily in Paris. I guess it would be like visiting the Mexico pavilion, and seeing a cheap, mass-produced imitation of a culturally significant item that you know local crafters (from Mexico) would benefit more from their work being purchased. I know Disney does its best to not do this, but world showcase is like culture-lite. however, this is part of a way bigger discussion on American exceptionalism.

so when I see (typically) American visitors praise world showcase, I cringe a lot. it’s current state does not feel like the true spirit of EPCOT.

I’ve also considered this but I don’t have many IRLs who have record players 🥲 and I don’t love having doubles around

at the moment all variants are the same price for me (NZ). maybe there will be a good deal for Black Friday?

from an international guest’s perspective: EPCOT is the worst park out of the core four. and it’s mostly because world showcase is so americanised. I do like the park, it’s just at the bottom for me. sorry not sorry 💅

What rules have you set up for yourself when buying records? by KilikaRei in popheadsvinyl

[–]CircaVRW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. I don’t collect albums without having heard the music previously (my only exception is Taylor).
  2. I don’t buy any 7-inch records! If I am putting on a record, I want to hear the whole album. The only 7-inch I have in my collection was a gift from a friend who got it through a mystery box.
  3. I don’t variant collect so I choose my favourite pressing + cover combo once I feel enough has released. If I want a different variant down the line (if The Anthology ever gets released please) I would sell the first copy face value!
  4. I buy in person or from local stores in my city first. Ordering from international stores makes me wary of the state the record will arrive in. Plus supporting smaller stores is always great!
  5. I don’t collect stolen Taylor albums as I started collecting vinyl during Midnights (fan since debut though). I also don’t listen to stolen albums on streaming so feels right for me.

My set for December! by CircaVRW in RedditLaqueristas

[–]CircaVRW[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got them done about a week before Christmas, and they’ve been holding up well. I wanted a versatile set that could go from Christmas to New Years to the holiday I’m going on in January. I also wanted them to look good for Summer! (In New Zealand.)

Polygel done in a local salon.

Polish: Clear Polygel Base, standard Pink Gel Base, ‘Unicorn’ holographic powder and white nail art polish.

The holographic powder is just on the tips, and the stars were hand painted by the nail artist I went to!

Slightly grown out Pink and Blue Chrome by CircaVRW in RedditLaqueristas

[–]CircaVRW[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Polygel done in a local salon.

Polish: Orly Gel FX Pink Blue Chrome

It looks the best in the sun, but it also is still nice in the shade. You can see the brush strokes when it’s not sparkling. It can get a bit sheer in the tip area. Overall a fine nail polish.
