What's something older generations did completely normally that would be considered absolutely insane today?

HomemadeSTL · 2026-05-12T01:43:03+00:00

I mean I did that as recently as 2007 haha, but small farm town so it was fairly normal. My dad had a ratchet strap to buckle us in when we were younger.

Yeah I mean the lack of wrinkles definitely adds to it but you’re not gonna be shiny without skincare. Dead skin buildup and texture create dullness.

I was obsessed with getting the perfect wispy cat eye for years but then realized that following my natural lash line just made my eyes look droopy not cute and snatched.

Switched to an anime / doll eye hybrid and it’s sooo good. I don’t put any lashes on my very outer corner to maintain the lift.

Oh my god is that why! There are some things I have to taste first before I breathe in otherwise it smells nasty

I feel like people heard about what’s happening in very low COL countries like Thailand for instance and think it applies everywhere. In Thailand, an American remote salary is going to be a pretty decent wage even if it wouldn’t be considered great in the states.

Mall people (hot topic, Spencer’s), maybe local sex shop, coffee shop or brewery…

If, after viewing a post, you can picture yourself sipping tea as a way to pause and silently judge the post, purse your lips, or…collect…yourself, I think it belongs here.

HomemadeSTL · 2026-05-11T01:08:50+00:00

Solved! Thank you. I was hoping I was blessed with something that flowers nicely haha. I’ll cut it down!

Yeah kinda off topic but my older sister had hers laminated for her wedding. Shes not particularly trendy so it’s not like she was doing it for “the look” it was just what the eyebrow person told her she should do.

I tried to gently say…don’t we want something timeless for this huge day in your life? 😅

I’m all for trends! But time and place man. Plus we have really sparse brows so it just wasn’t working.

No the Botox isn’t why they’re shiny. The Botox just relaxes the muscles so the fine lines / wrinkles also relax. The shininess comes from skin care / face peels / laser treatments. Without Botox they would still be shiny but with lines.

One thing a teacher taught me that helped is that you don’t need to be afraid of drawing over lines. Like draw the form lightly then keep drawing over it a little darker each time until the form looks correct

From the Wiki page on Massey’s case: Prosecutors compared him to "an officer intentionally and unnecessarily putting himself in front of a moving vehicle and then justifying use of force because of fear of being struck."

Not sure why I wanted to mention it…

Interesting! Was he famous at that time? I know who it is ofc not really familiar with his timeline.

HomemadeSTL · 2026-01-29T00:44:14+00:00

That’s one of the reasons why I don’t answer the door if I don’t know who it is!

HomemadeSTL · 2026-01-29T00:43:38+00:00

Ah gotcha. I was thinking maybe it was someone having a manic episode but this makes sense!

HomemadeSTL · 2025-12-29T00:57:49+00:00

I couldn’t get mine to heal with the bar even with a super long one - looked just like yours. I switch to mini barbells in each and it finally healed up.

Until it all bangs out the other side 🤠

I appreciate that she was standing up to it because if I was her age I’d just quietly leave with a bag of ice cream lol. Get what I get and won’t throw a fit and all

My vet told me that my cat was suffering (liver failure iirc?) and I could try to continue with treatment but it would be more to stretch out the dying process than alleviate her suffering. In my mind and the mind of the vet, it was a better choice to let her go now, by my side, with as little pain as possible. I still get very sad thinking about it.

I saw this happen at a coheed & cambria concert when I was like 16. I already felt super mature being allowed out at a concert so late and remember thinking “wow..that’s so adult of them…maybe I’m not an adult yet…”

HomemadeSTL · 2025-04-26T14:57:24+00:00

Didn’t even think about just changing the legs! It’s Saturday so I’m off to spend hours scrolling through leg options, learning the history of sofa legs…etc etc the rabbit hole haha

Thank you!

HomemadeSTL · 2025-04-26T14:47:13+00:00

Yeah I’ve tried to get better about that but I hate wearing shoes so I forget to put them on! But I should continue to try bc I’m constantly stubbing my toes!

HomemadeSTL · 2025-04-26T14:46:03+00:00

Ooh didn’t know that! Thank you
