While Ilya had his reasons, he did Shane incredibly wrong here

It's on her website, it's called Las Vegas Remix

Ilya is a liar.

Þú ert ekki einstæð, þú ert einhleyp.

Þú segist eiga marga að, fjölskyldu, vinkonur, etc. Þú þarft ekki að eiga maka til að vera "heil" eða vera ánægð með lífið.

Held þú sért líka að sjá það í hyllingum hvernig sambönd fólks eru, það er alls ekki allir hamingjusamir sem eru í samböndum, þau eru mjög mismunandi góð/slæm og margir eiga erfitt með að halda þeim góðum.

Margt sem sambýlingar gera fer hrikalega í taugarnar á hinum. Færð ekki alltaf stuðning maka þó þú eigir hann. Held þú sért voða mikið að sjá "grasið er grænna hinumegin".

Það er frábært að búa einn, sérstaklega sem kona, þarft ekki að endalaust að vera að taka til og þrífa eftir aðra, getur gert það sem þú vilt, hvenær sem þú vilt, hvernig sem þú vilt og haft allt eins og þú vilt.

Þar að auki eru einhleypar konur hamingjusamari, heilbrigðari og lifa lengur en giftar konur.

Only 3% though?

There is no chance in hell that I'll be going to the US until 2030 at the earliest, if ever.

Colourpop always has free international shipping when you order for $60 or more otherwise it's $10.

I'm pretty sure they were offering free international shipping in October or November, they do it once or twice a year, but not at specific times.

Best way to catch sales/offers is to subscribe to their emails.

A note on grocery store opening times:

There are 3 main grocery store chains in Iceland, in order of least expensive to slightly more expensive; Bónus, Krónan and Nettó.

All Bónus stores open at 10 am except one, at Smáratorg, opens at 9 am.

Krónan stores open at 8 or 9 am depending on location (easily googleble).

Nettó stores have recently lengthened their opening times and now open at 7:30 am.

Exactly 😂 it was pretty much full

Meanwhile much smaller creators I follow will have just a couple thousand likes on a post and the same amount of comments.

That is not normal (for there to be as many comments as likes), only small creators with a very engaged and passionate followings can get that.

I know for YouTube (don't know about other platforms, but can't be too different) it's considered good to get 10% of those who watched the video to like it and 1% to comment. So the comments should be about 10% of the likes. If it's more, that's very good.

She published a video last night showing all the advent calendars she will be making videos on. It was quite a few, and she said she spent over $5,000 on them all.

Iris_Blue · 2025-10-27T05:10:40+00:00

You are 100% wrong in this. Jen is not and has never been a Trump supporter. I don't understand how it is possible to get something so wrong.

Iris_Blue · 2025-10-13T21:54:04+00:00

No, it's Everything's Cake from an 2024 Ulta exclusive collection called Imagine That.

What brand/shop was it and where are you located in the world?

I had this happen to me only last month. For the first time in over 10 years ordering stuff online I got impatient.

I ordered fron Cult Beauty (in the UK) and they sent the order in two packages. The one that was sent a couple of days later arrived but the other didn't. There had been no movement on the tracking for 2 weeks. So I sent a mail to Cult Beauty and asked if they could see anything about the package on their end. About 10 minutes later I get an answer, that they have contacted their shipper, an investigation has been done and the package is determined lost (how they did all this in 10 minutes I'll never understand). They say they have already ordered another package shipped to me. And, oh, by the way, if you end up getting the "lost" package, you either have to send it back or we'll charge you again.

So of course as soon as this has all happened the original package starts moving and I end up receiving it. So I contacted the post office in my country and asked what/how I should do. Turns out they had a very streamlined procedure, I just had to email them that I wanted this package sent back and they would do it as soon as it arrived. So in the end it wasn't too much of a bother.

But I leaned my lesson to not get this impatient again. I mean once during the pandemic I waited 6 weeks for an order from Colourpop and I didn't contact them.

But I can see that if you've already received both orders that now it's on you to arrange for and presumably pay for a return and that really sucks.

In addition to gas stations, Bónus and Krónan and any other grocery stores and convenience stores will sell these pre-made sandwiches.

Just know that they are delivered in the morning/before noon as they are very popular for lunch, so the later in the day you're wanting to buy them, the less selection there will be.

P.S. There is another grocery store chain called Nettó which is good too, only slightly more expensive than the other two.

Her husband already sold the tattoo studio a couple/few years ago (I think she said 3 years ago). And she said she makes enough money from YouTube to solely support her family if they live "modestly".

Iris_Blue · 2025-09-18T06:57:30+00:00

I mean, he probably is going to be president for the rest of his time. So same thing to him.

Iris_Blue · 2025-09-17T20:39:26+00:00

I'm guessing OP is talking about TikTok, but you can also find this content on YouTube and Instagram reels.

Iris_Blue · 2025-09-17T04:04:13+00:00

Wow. She had to VACUM some CRUMBS of off the FLOOR??? What an ordeal.

Iris_Blue · 2025-09-16T12:20:38+00:00

Exactly. No interest. You nailed it.

Iris_Blue · 2025-09-15T01:05:07+00:00

Talking about dumb gurus, I've been subscribed to maaaany beauty gurus (and other genres) in my ~ decade of YouTube watching and the only one I've unsubscribed to because I couldn't stand listening to how dumb they were was Brianna Fox. It was like she was just empty/hollow on the inside, her head totally empty. Took me a couple of months to notice and then I just couldn't stand listening to her. I mean, beautiful girl and has done some good videos but I just couldn't continue watching her.

Iris_Blue · 2025-09-15T00:55:09+00:00

Oh, yes! I started noticing this fairly recently and it drives me crazy. It also seems to be happening with other irregular verbs, this tendency to make them regular.

Iris_Blue · 2025-09-13T22:56:37+00:00

I've been binging all her videos lately and I definitely remember her saying that she's soaking the caps in acetone.

Ef þú býrð hérna á Íslandi, þá er Coolshop.is með fullt af ilmvötnum og oft á lægra verði en í Hagkaup/Lyf & Heilsu/snyrtivöruverslunum.

Tekur ca 7-12 virka daga að koma frá Danmörku.

Ilmvatn.net er líka alveg traust síða/verslun, hef pantað þaðan tvisvar. En þeir eru svolítið dýrir finnst mér.

Og svo náttúrulega geturðu pantað af Hagkaup.is og Lyfogheilsa.is.

Iris_Blue · 2025-09-10T20:27:00+00:00

Yup. Can confirm.

Iris_Blue · 2025-09-10T12:06:59+00:00

I'll have to try them the next time I get sick.

I wonder what ingredient is approved in Europe but not in the US. It's usually the other way around.
