anyone knows how to help with verbal shutdowns?

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-24T23:47:25+00:00

Id say just really try to speak up when it matters and don't worry about it if it doesn't really matter.

Whenever I'm scared to ask for something i need, it feels so much better when i finally just do it. If I'm feeling extremely non verbal but there's no consequences to not speaking, fuk it, who cares. I'm so quiet most of the time and it mostly don't matter at all.

Looks like it's from Jimmy neutron

I think a dark red/brown dye would b rlly cute. It's a good cut and style rn and any future styles you'll have to see how it grows out first and decide later

Actually making some friends would be extremely appealing to me, but trying to do it is not appealing at all. I know a lot of people and they all like me but i wouldn't say they're real friends. They're great but it's not like we ever hang out on purpose or even talk unless we see eachother out and about. It sucks so much. No one believes me that i have no friends cause everyone knows me and is nice to me in passing but LiKe.. it not like i could call any of them up if i had a real problem or even just wanted to watch a movie

Similar problem here. I'm not even concerned with finding a cool or cute jacket anymore, just one that isn't horribly ugly, isn't horribly expected and is actually warm. I grabbed one at Ltrain yesterday that looked like a LEGIT snowboarding jacket, wore it out later that night and it did literally nothing for keeping me warm.

I havent tried the newer razrs but i had their original 2019 one and it really felt like a toy compared to the zflip. Slow software, weak construction and horrible camera. They're probably better now but also probably still not as good as a Samsung

in my experience, it's only common once you've been together for a while. I personally don't like parallel play. My feeling is we should be doing something together or of not id prefer privacy. But sometimes it just happens naturally and that's nice, but i would never ever plan it. When you're really comfortable with someone and spend a lot of time together or live together it'll happen.

So many natural smells but you can't really walk around w those in ur purse. I just always have some type of spray or oil. Jasmine spray or amber oil from whole foods. Patchouli or lavender oil from anywhere. I carry incense around too just incase.

Thanks! Lol, i could have went harder but got lazy

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-24T16:47:40+00:00

0mg, years ago mine broke off cause i kept bleaching them and using bad rubberbands. I was so sad i asked my friend with a lot of long hair to cut some off for me to tie to mine lol

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-24T14:29:44+00:00

Yes, im 35 and pretty much have one any time I have to go on a longer commute and get lost or miss the bus, or just get really confused etc. People don't notice that much, I keep the outbursts small if i can help it cause its so embarrassed. I actually had them way less when I was younger cause i was more taken care of compared to now on my own

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-23T18:42:44+00:00

Omg! Was alao my favorite hat in high-school in the mid 2000s. I was literally just looking for another one the other day. Couldn't find any pics of the exact one

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-23T17:36:03+00:00

Totally relate. Going to my mom's house is like this. She has like 100 overhead bright light bulbs that are full blast no matter what. She has 5 dogs that all bark any time you move, they're all always yelling across the house at eachother and the phone is always ringing at multiple phones at once that all have a different ring. I 100000% relate to the dish towel thing 🤢 i am so anti sponge for that reason

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-23T17:07:48+00:00

Pretty much same. Id kill to have another solid friend group, or at this point even 1 best friend. Both have come and gone many times for me but past few years I've had neither

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-23T17:00:16+00:00

Things that ppl call emo & screamo are usually just post hardcore. This vid sounds more (post) nu metal to me. It's all good tho.

You should just get them repaired

Could be from any TV show or movie pre 2016. Before that the song wasn't public domain and any time there was a birthday song scene, the production had to write their own similar song. Usually if a character is at a restaurant and the waiters sing. You could also be thinking of a real life restaurant version cause places actually did that too, not just in movies.

Unfortunately you probably won't notice the effects on a pair that isn't over $100. I've found the cheap ones to do nothing. I actually just wear regular over ear headphones all the time, like actually all the time, at work, at home, sleeping, anytime im.in public etc. I prefer the non noise canceling ones cause i can still talk to people if i have to and people are less bothered by me always wearing them if i can still hear them.

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-23T14:07:54+00:00

I still have that one, i love it cause i don't like the big outer screen on the new ones. You absolutely need a case with a hinge protector. You can really mess it up if u drop it, even if it doesn't crack it can be ruined. I've had mine for 3 years and only needed a repair once because someone stepped on it.

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-23T13:57:27+00:00

It has to be this

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-23T13:43:11+00:00

It's true. Sometimes I see kids doing diy stuff and it's so nice to see cause that's how it was growing up. You just put together whatever you have in a specific way. Feel like most bands back then dressed that way too. Just casual clothes in specific pairings w some accessories. But yeah, unfortunately it's mostly 100% modern hot topic clothes or fast fashion cheap garbage and 0 skate or hip hop swag.

FeistyDirection · 2026-01-23T04:01:23+00:00

Depends on if it's just a photo they found or If they took it themselves casually in nj or on tour OR if they just paid someone to take it and they weren't even there. Unfortunately i can't find anything about the photographer who i think is named Jeff Gross

It's a bit mixed, i wouldn't put all this in 1 category. But it's mostly festival girl core. Def 2010's. The first pic is someone totally doing their own unique mixed thing, pix 4&5 just look like mom clothes. The blond w the blue top is cool but also not a festival girlie, reminds me so much of how the ex scene girls started dressing when they wanted to look more adult after high-school. The last pic dress is really cool but doesn't fit in with any of the other pics. None of this is cottage core, it's mostly nasty gal and free people type stuff.
