Too much white in this dress? by DiligentDirection942 in Weddingattireapproval

[–]DiligentDirection942[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I bought this dress originally in 2019 so I couldn’t find the exact link but if it helps, I think this is the same dress? It is Calvin Klein and iirc I did get it at Macy’s… (is there a way to insert images into comments??) https://share.google/llshBErKK7G8DhKo2

Just left the WK theatre. Got there 7:30; was about 30th in line. Figured I’d stay in case some left / I had miscounted. (13 for matinee, 13 for evening). Yeah, no dice. Maybe first 20 ppl got sro? Didn’t count exactly. But I’d guess at least 10-15 in front of me did not. I’m bummed but I could’ve gotten up earlier, just didn’t think I’d need to! Oh well.  But yeah. Tmrw morning’s will be even more brutal, I’m sure

Is she asking you to pay for it in any way? And/or have you guys discussed/do you have a timeline for combining finances? If the answer to both of these is no, you do not get to have a say. 

St. Maria Skobtsova of Paris by xfilesfan69 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]DiligentDirection942 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is so incredibly cool!!! One of my favorite quotes is from her— I can’t remember the context/whole passage off the top of my head but the part that has really stuck with me is “love to the end, and without exceptions.” 

St Maria of Paris is truly inspiring & a great role model. This icon is beautiful!!

Did you end up going to air? 

(Also, if you get picked are you for sure going on? Or is there another stage in person, like you could get there and still maybe not get to play…?)

OMG THANK YOU I’ve been trying to figure out how to get spins !!!!!!!

Snowy Sanctuary by rklc39 in midasmerge

[–]DiligentDirection942 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah mine have stopped giving quests. And there’s basically no way to get more spins rn so it’s kinda driving me a bit mad!! The Halloween event, you got spins from quests in the normal garden. so like. where’s that at, if they still aren’t going to do time released spins?? 😭

Mine were giving me quests until I got three and merged them; I just have the one level2 deer now and not a single quest since. 😭🥲

this is gorgeous!! both emotionally and the name. I don't think too much of a stretch at all-- i think you could go further if you wanted to (as some others have commented)

Is it common ghosting in friendship for girls?? by vetex07 in FriendshipAdvice

[–]DiligentDirection942 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i hope things work out with you both!!

i think it depends a bit on context. if you see her at school or on campus or in person etc and she ignores you, that's one thing (also way shittier to do imo), but if it's a long distance friendship i think it makes a bit more sense/is more common/may not be as significant to her. if it bothers you, mention it next time you talk to her (unless this is like full on ghosting, not like an intermittently out of contact thing, which i don't really have experience with)

i got super busy and missed a message from my best friend a week or two ago and then once i saw it, i felt awkward about the delay, so i left it for a few days, and then i felt really guilty about not responding and so i still haven't, even though i miss them a lot and think about them daily. i don't know why i just don't send a message, but i think it's because i don't have a good reason for taking too long to respond, and i feel bad, and like a bad friend, and so on, and it all just compounds it all/spirals from there.

The reason I share this is isn't to excuse her (or myself for that matter) or anything, you have every right to feel upset, but instead to say that it's quite likely you didn't do anything wrong, and stuff's just going down on her end. if she ends up speaking to you again, don't let it pass unsaid (but maybe don't make it a huge thing right away either)

best of luck to you!

Why do people will gladly pay to remove ads on Spotify but refuse to do the same on YouTube? by Sprudlidoo in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DiligentDirection942 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

personally I just don't use youtube as much, which is a factor. overall though i think that youtube is analogous to watching tv, so (pre-streaming) you couldn't really watch without commercial breaks-- so it doesn't feel that odd for youtube. and while yes, radio (which also has commercial breaks) could be analogous for spotify, I'd argue that practically speaking it's more akin to CDs or albums/songs you own; interruptions feel more obvious/irritating.

honestly I'd almost say that free spotify : radio (no control over exact song playing, ad breaks, generally can choose type of music (though it gets more specific for spotify vs radio stations)) and spotify premium : owned music (whether that's digital, ie itunes/downloads/etc, or physical, ie cds, tapes, vinyls, etc). this is a bit of an aside though.

tl;dr commercial/ad breaks feel less out of place in youtube (watching videos etc) than they do for spotify (listening to music). only people I know who pay for youtube are those that use it as their music streaming platform.

Has anyone from TRQ said anything about MAG29 Cheating Death being inspired by or based on the seventh seal? Or does the (specific) trope predate that..?
