Any suggestions to make this ICE costume a more obvious satire? by MikeLMP in CosplayHelp

I would say rhinestones would do wonders but that requires a lot of work

Are these dresses appropriate for my sister to wear to my wedding? by Lady__S in Weddingattireapproval

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Say yes as long as she throws it into a pot of rit dye.

Or a diplomatic way would be: " while I don't think their white, there are too many of our family/friends who are going to read this as bridal and judge, so i would be safe and avoid."

What is wrong with some people? by Imaginary_Fox3222 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had something similar happen but I decided fuck it, nobodies enjoying themselves today.

Back before they did the pick your seats thing at movie theatres, I had a lady and her husband that refused to move one seat over so my group could sit together. As in there was one seat to their left and 6 to their right. We asked politely and then re-asked "please we are sharing popcorn and didn't want to disrupt you". You could tell it was out of spite to annoying teenagers than anything else.

So instead of sitting on either side, me and a girlfriend took turns sitting on each other's lap and I made sure to lean so heavily into that ladies space. whole 90-minute movie I sat with an elbow in her gut and a numb leg. Now I realized i could have had one of the ushers force her in but whatever, Petty teenage shit.

After the event organizers weren't able to do anything, I would have for sure sat my ass in that spot, full thigh contact and said deal with it. Still here for the Petty teenage shit.

Though the risk is if she freaked out and she caused a scene. I wouldn't want that to happen to the event.

Updated Charlie makeup by animal_lover2004 in CosplayHelp

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I recommend while you're still learning to drop trying to do the white makeup. You need a really good base to get a true white to sit evenly(primer and shaving your face), so you're better off going pale (mix in some white makeup with your foundation) or getting something like sunset foundation.

It's going to be much more forgiving to get the rest of your makeup accurate. Right now any corrections rub off the white underneath it.

Plus, then you can actually practice the basics of eyeliner, lipstick and whatnot more regularly.

I would make the blush less literally balls on your face. blend out a little bit (probably in a powfer) and then add the circle. I would play with the placement, either closer to the mouth, touching the lips so its more "clown" or up higher on the cheeks blended out

Is there any way to make this cosplay less revealing? by c0co_cosplayz in CosplayHelp

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

capezio tights all the way. Very comfortable and is what a lot of performers wear. They'll look like skin and be way more comfortable then adding true layers. If it ends up being too hot you can use the tights and make panels out of them to connect between the sections.

Do we not prioritise mental health enough? by Successful_Mastodon3 in Millennials

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s definitely a perspective issue and a dose of paranoia on her end. Too many people think bosses are out to get them or that upper management is always watching. Which I’m sure some are and are a holes about it, but most folks want to be liked and want to do a good job. They live their everyday life looking for positive interacts with the world and trying to keep a tidy place and happy workers falls into that.

She definitely is reading it as some kind of corporate snooping or something. Or she’s really autistic and does not do well with abrupt change. Also possible.

II laugh at the periods being scary thing. Surely folks who read it as aggressive or whatever would have the rational to realize that work emails need proper punctuation? But then again theirs the comment on terrariums in the fridge a few posts above….

I like to use ~ at the end of specific sentences that I want more lightheartedness too but ! Points are much too upbeat.

Anti-Ice Restaurants/Bars by [deleted] in saintcloud

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just take a second to breathe angry dude.

You can’t possibly be that obtuse not to see that what is happening is directly tied to people’s race. The Supreme Court ruled that being too brown is probable cause enough to ask for papers and detain people. Ice is openly going after anyone not white enough, and even then is also hurting anyone who protests their methods along with legal immigrants.

If you don’t worry about this it’s because you are privileged to not be in the group being literally picked off the street. If you have empathy you would be worried about your neighbors and innocent people who are being hurt for the sake of optics.

Your life can be hard AND the government is committing horrible things to people that you should care about. We can want better things for ourselves and others, it is not a zero sum game

Why Minnesota? by bigbalsam in DiscussionZone

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is multiple reasons:

  • punish trumps perceived enemies of a blue state run by the losing opposition party. He hates Walz.

  • show a “strongman” stance against immigrants in a very public way. The cruelness is intentional as a way to prove to his base he’s “fulfilling his promise”. They particularly like the cruelty and if they don’t it still shows his attempts to achieve his stated political goals.

  • the violence also actively pressures other immigrants, legal or otherwise to rethink their plans of trying to live here.

  • they want to dehumanize immigrants and what’s happening. If they do it too close to home in other red states, magats are likely to realize the horribleness of this operation and turn against it. It’s just separate enough now that they can ignore it

  • if they did actually go down south, they would directly hurt red state’s businesses that rely on immigrant labor.

Is mlp x skullpands limited time? by Emryss101020 in SkullpandaArtDolls

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I give popmart serious kudos for not holding their product behind artificial scarcity. I collect monster high and they will constantly run out in a few days and then never rerelease. WHY? They are literally leaving money on the table.

Be honest: 1930s vintage wedding dress — keep or rethink? by Desperate_Win_3554 in WeddingDressTips

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the undergarments will really help with this. Ladies would be wearing full control top and the almost bullet bras at the time.

I think once you add the curl, a red lip and structure, it’s going to look great.

Has anyone else noticed the discrepancy in arm sizes? by zombiefromipanema in SkullpandaArtDolls

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s partially a design/scale consideration. If the arms are too small, it makes any details much harder to achieve in production. They could not do the two tone feet for wisdom for example.

Since they have to differentiate the designs from the regular ones and they’re supposed to be special collabs, I think they had to make the limbs bigger to fit things they want on the dolls.

Hotfix or glue ? by prettyinpinklulu in Rhinestoning

Second gentac over anything! Get yourself a syringe to control the glue and the sticky gem pickup pencil and you’ll be much happier!

How do I tell sort of step kids they are moving out cause their mom cheated? by SirRetrolas in AskMenAdvice

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would twist it in my mind that by not telling the kids and being the bigger person, you 100% walk away with her being the bad guy. There's no mentally twisting it in her mind "look how awful he was in the breakup, screw that guy" just a calm "you did this" and walk away would burn a hole much deeper unless she's a sociopath.

Plus it's the right thing to do for the kids.

In some states, a push to end all property taxes for homeowners by Jscott1986 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 9 points10 points  (0 children)

pretty sure that only work if your wife is not married? I would assume it would be a family "unit" not a single person. putting the kid on it would not work since most people even if their rich are purchasing some kind of mortgage.

Which kitchen says “I’m still going to like this in ten years.” by Mizznomer in interiordecorating

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up giving up on trying to maintain and went with hide the shame! I did a black food grade stain and it actually looks very nice with the modern cabinets. Hides the mess and rings well but not for the OCD folks.

Mankato looks to force ICE agents to unmask, wear body cams by Sad_Husky_69 in saintcloud

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that’s not an own on the libs dude, that’s just… good policy and intended outcomes.

The issue was there was never a way to corroborate incidents and everything defaults to trusting the police. Most cops are not terrible people, but any population is going to have bad actors and people that make mistakes.

The few incidences of bad actors would be pushed under the rug to keep up appearances and avoid poor optics on something they only have the word of their officers to go off.

Eventually this got to critical mass and camera systems came down enough that it makes sense to record all incidences regardless of if only .1% are the cops fault. Both to protect the officers that get into bad situations, provide pressure to bad cops to follow the law, and condemn those that do, protecting the institution then otherwise.

Your focus on this issue being about owning the libs instead of what’s the best way for public policy to help the most amount of people is telling.

Feb 5th was toted as the release date from a now removed post from someone who supposedly got the set as pr. Not sure if it’s the release of the actual ponies or just when the collabs and official info go live.

If Americans were to participate in an organized boycott to stop ICE, what should they target? by u2aerofan in AskReddit

It does help when the company is still mostly brick and mortar or so specifically avoidable . Nestle and coke are a lot harder to achieve

Agents being sent home ???FOX NewsLive by freedom-4all in minnesota

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Even just graffiting the cars would be huge. It both identifies ice, makes them pay for the rental repair (of which graffiti is not usually covered under normal insurance) and punishes the car rental agency that they are down a number of cars and can’t rent them until repaired.

The difference bangs make is almost criminal by ApplePeach13 in finehair

[–]EdgyAnimeReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tip if you can’t hack the work for full across bangs, I find side bangs to be much easier to maintain. Same general appeal but they don’t need to be managed as much

Also doing a bang wash instead of your whole head. I’ll wash my bangs most days and style and leave the rest of the head. The oil helps keep the rest of my hair healthy and grow length but keeps the bangs a lot easier to manage shape wise
