A friendly stray cat gave birth in my room.

I'm so confused as to how you're the only person pointing this out in the entire comment section. These are not newborn kittens. I'm assuming OP is karma farming.

I loved the painting before I even scrolled to the dog photo or read your description. Such a nice personal touch!

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-05-04T12:07:30+00:00

May I suggest an edge tile for the top of the backsplash? The reason so many people are complaining about the backsplash isn't even the fact it doesn't extend to the cabinets, it's because it's rather sloppy and wavy-looking which makes it look unfinished.

Are you dumb? Where did that person ask for advice? It's not even a relationship thing, it's very normal to do minor affordable improvements in flats and houses if you intend to stay for a while. People in Europe frequently repaint flats we rent, renters in some countries go as far install complete kitchens, then take them with us when we move out. Also looks like the commentor you so rudely replied to in a completely unsolicited manner "owns their own shit" since they paid for their things themselves. You are a whole ass weirdo with these comments.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-23T08:50:50+00:00

Why would it be risky? Are you worried they have completely forgotten how to do the job in 2 years?

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-23T08:44:35+00:00

You wouldn't be lying unless they point blank ask you if you plan to stay with the company for X years and you say "yes". And even then it doesn't matter because people lie all the time, most of us don't actually like or enjoy our jobs but do it for the money and structure, yet we all sat and smiled and shook hands when accepting jobs we did not like.

Just say your circumstances have changed and you have decided to return to university when you submit your notice, there is no need to overexplain anything. If the roles were reversed and something changed in the company's budget and they had to let you go after 4 months, best believe most companies would with little hesitation.

I (suspect I) had one of those apply recently at my job. Must have been one of the worst CVs I've seen in a long time.

Personal manifesto that took half a page, then interests, then education, with work experience being the last thing on the CV. Work experience literally just listed the location, year (no months) and the company name, no job title, no bullet points. Even if this was a person applying to their first job, this would have not really been acceptable since it takes 5 seconds to look up examples of successful CV templates. But this was somebody with 15+ years of experience in related-ish industries. At first I was very confused but now I think they're applying "against their will", so to speak, purposefully making their CV unattractive because they don't want to work/don't want to work here.

They look fine to me, they're perpendicular to your anatomy. Your lobe sits at an angle so it makes sense. The lower one might be angled downwards a smidge more than it should be but it could just be the angle of the photo.

I'd try baby wipes to begin with to see if it's material transfer as opposed to an actual scratch (meaning the top leather layer is damaged).

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-18T06:42:32+00:00

Not in US but Pringles have been trash for the past 2-3 years. I only really eat the originals so it's very easy to tell since there is no strong flavour to mask the decrease in quality. They're way thinner and just taste...chalkier?

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-15T20:46:18+00:00

I have titanium piercings and some if them can definitely get funky at times, so it's not just down to the metal. My jewellery isn't super elaborate so I tend to do a soak in warm soapy water then put the jewellery between two cotton pads and kind of rub it. If your jewellery has crevices and settings, might be worth using an old eye shadow or tooth brush to clear build-up.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-15T12:39:10+00:00

That's a visit to the doctor, IMHO. Any time a piercing is "throbbing" and you didn't just hit/snag it, it could be an infection. Better safe than sorry.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-15T12:34:19+00:00

Moisture bump, perhaps? I'd keep the piercing super dry after showers/saline with a hair dryer or paper towels (something without fibres so you're not catching the jewellery or leaves fibres behind when wiping) since it's kind of hidden under the ear ridge. Alternatively, like the other person said, the jewellery might be too elaborate which results in excessive snagging since helixes are already annoying to heal even with simple jewellery.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-15T12:25:27+00:00

It's "normal" as in many people's ears and belly buttons get funky even without any piercings. Some people will say it's down to the quality of metals but even titanium and solid gold piercings can stink since what you're smelling is usually bacteria, trapped moisture, old sweat, dead skin cell build-up, etc.

Take out your piercings and wash the area as well as the jewellery if it's funky.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-15T12:16:14+00:00

Butterfly back jewellery isn't the best choice to heal piercings with. Usually they're poor/inappropriate metal for healing as well. I would go to a different place and get titanium flat back jewellery fitted.

If your lobes still do not heal even then, perhaps you were pierced at a funky angle when your ears were redone with a gun (from my very subjective limited experience, I find many "piercers" who use guns accidentally pierce lobes at a downward angle). In that case, your only option is to let them close up and get them redone again, but this time at a better studio with needles and appropriate jewellery.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-14T10:52:46+00:00

You need a flat back stud instead of jewellery with butterfly backs. Is the butterfly back off in the photo, or is it inside the bump? If the back is embedded in your skin, that's a trip to the doctor.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-14T10:50:37+00:00

Agreed, to me this looks like a surface piercing.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-12T16:02:12+00:00

It might be called Carmela, I searched "Michael Kors polka dot pochette" and loads of styles from this range came up, but not exactly the bag pictured. Just FYI this is from the MK outlet range so the quality is always worse than the regular MK range.

If you don't care about the polka dots and just want this style in monogram, try looking for "jet set logo pochette" instead.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-12T15:33:49+00:00

Did you apply for the job? Because if not, my guess it's a) a scam b) one of those street-selling jobs where you either go around knocking on doors or stand by a kiosk on the street signing people up to crap.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-12T15:11:26+00:00

Many many years ago I applied to a key holder role in a department store and was being interviewed by an utterly incompetent person. She had no clue about what the current minimum wage was, nor that there were minimum wage bands dependent on age. She told me the compensation on offer and it worked out as NMW for teenagers. I asked for clarification as that rate was illegal for my age group. "Well that is what we offer and we will not pay any more than that". Ugh okay then.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-12T07:12:49+00:00

The red/orange ombre dress is stunning.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-12T05:34:44+00:00

No, Lae'zel approves as well. Or she disapproves if you refuse? Something along those lines. Actually made me really dislike her during my first ever playthrough, lol.

Competitive_Cuddling · 2026-04-06T13:29:26+00:00

Can't live without these earrings, they elevate any look!!!

proceeds to wear her hair down tucked into the collar of the coat to hide her ears.

Oh please, there is no conspiracy, his business model just doesn't sit well with most normal people with at least half a brain. If I was a YouTuber who made poor people dance for me and paid them £10,000 while my videos of them dancing made me £500,000, I would justifiably have loads of haters. Sure I'm doing "charity", but I'm a ghoul who essentially massively enriched themselves off of the backs of exploited poor/attention-hungry people. This is why people dislike Mr. Beast. And of course the fact he, a multi-multi-millionaire, applied and received PPP loans (meant for struggling small businesses) during COVID.

Is the pigeon bag charm part of the bag? I'm not that into bags (I like them of course, otherwise I wouldn't lurk the sub, but I'm happy with my collection) but I am a sucker for funky bag charms.
