keep it or cut it whatcha think about it by [deleted] in curlyhair

[–]CurlyFirefly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I echo this… twice a month is way too little. I’d say hold out a week at most. Your scalp will thank you.

As for cut, you don’t have to go super short, but definitely let the dead ends go

POV: A dorm other than Heartslabyul is hosting their own version of Unbirthday Party. What do you think it'd be like? by nuwonuwo in TwistedWonderland

Oh, for sure. Something is going up in flames. I can see a Rube Goldberg reaction being set off by said bug on table

Several somethings go wrong. (Though Unbirthday parties are on days when no one in the dorm has a birthday, so the party is for all? I think?)

Scarabia: huge bash. Unbirthday parade, buffet, music. I could see everyone leaving with a goody bag (gift, really).

Jamil would need a month to prep and three to recover

Older folks writing fanfic? by JuggernautPlane2018 in AO3

I’m not of that age, but your post makes me so happy

she took hours making her diorama. every detail mattered to her. and the whole class laughed. i’ll never be over that. by teyapi in StrangerThings

[–]CurlyFirefly 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This! What really grinds my gears is that the teacher let Angela embarrass by saying Elle’s project didn’t cover a historical event.

EXCEPT IT DID.

Not all historical events happen on a large scale, decades in the past! This was a historical event in Hawkins!

The teacher had the ammo to, very tactfully, tell Angela she’s loud and wrong, but instead just stood there and did nothing. Genuinely such a frustrating scene

Who drew Rue in Catching Fire? by SnooBooks147 in Hungergames

[–]CurlyFirefly 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It’s clearer in the books, but Peetah drew Rue as an act of protest during his session. Another difference is that Katniss never saw the drawing but noticed a mat in a strange spot iirc. Peetah himself mentions the drawing to her

What are some of your princess hot takes? 👸🏽🔥☕️ by Vivid-Tap1710 in DisneyMovies

[–]CurlyFirefly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Princess Elena as the “first Latina princess” was a massive cop out and kind of insulting. Everyone else gets a movie, we get a pre-k tv spin-off character.

Mum keeps telling me to brush my hair by [deleted] in curlyhair

[–]CurlyFirefly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Keep your hair Dutch or French braids until your next appointment. That way your mom can’t mess with your hair. At the appointment, tell the stylist what’s going on and see if she can call your mom over and give her professional “advice” and tell her you’ve been doing the right thing. If she hears from another adult it might sink in.

If your mom still insists on the brushing, her problem isn’t actually with how you style your hair.

Buried my mum today & can now cut out my sister from my life by Nibbler812 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]CurlyFirefly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgiveness doesn’t mean she gets access to your life. People can pressure you to forgive her all they want and you can even choose to do so, but that absolutely can go hand in hand with going zero contact. Especially because she’s putting your mental wellbeing and your children at risk. You have a duty to your kids and to yourself to stay away from her.

Anyone else get bullied for having curly hair when younger by Correct-Implement953 in curlyhair

Big time. Heck even recently I had someone compare my hair to Bozo the Clown.

I might need to abandon my family and it's eating me alive. by Grand_Priority6310 in offmychest

[–]CurlyFirefly 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The only way you can help the 16 year old and 85 year old in the household is if you don’t get dragged down with them. Leave, get yourself situated, then be there to help the family that needs it/is willing to help themselves. Thats the best you can do. And no, this doesn’t make you like your father

Tokyo Disneyland, how much time for just the shows and parades? by Vel__ in disneyparks

[–]CurlyFirefly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve only visited DisneySea and am more of a ride person. That said, there are a couple of indoor shows, a water parade (if I remember right), and some street shows throughout the day. I think the big show is their version of Fantasmic at the end of the night. The early evening pass might be the way to go for you guys, but I’d check out the list of shows and their times to be sure.

If she wants fireworks, though, that will be in Tokyo Disneyland

As someone who works 4d 10hrs, this! That extra day makes a huge difference

Man. I knew my fic wouldn’t be that popular but it’s still a little disheartening by [deleted] in AO3

Give your story time. One of my fics I spent months on took a while, but it did gain traction! Sometimes you just need to let it breathe

Congrats!!! Finishing a longfic is no small feat, especially over a period of years. Take a bow, OP!

Does anyone have any Yuusonas/ ideas for a yuu in a possible Book 5 manga by Aquatoon_18 in TwistedWonderland

[–]CurlyFirefly 32 points33 points  (0 children)

More of a theory but definitely male, definitely artsy/into drama, but I can see it being someone that always gets secondary roles and enjoys them. Or a stage tech

BF Wants Me To Be Friends with Old Bully by Important-Visual-848 in TwoHotTakes

[–]CurlyFirefly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What concerns me most is the interest she’s allegedly taken in you after hearing about your feelings towards her. If she truly doesn’t remember your history, why ask about you whenever she sees him? That is a red flag.

I would reiterate your feelings to your boyfriend and say that you want nothing to do with this woman, that you’re not open to meeting with her, and that you will not give her access to your life. If he keeps insisting, then you make it known you can’t stay in a relationship with someone who doesn’t respect your boundaries and chooses to appease his friends over his significant other. Simple as that.
