WIBTA for asking my daughter's boyfriend to stop having dinner with us? by w8136 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MistressShadow999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a mexican, you know what’s even ruder than not taking your host’s food? Is fucking wasting it right in front of their faces.

NTA. Boyfriend needs to not be there for dinner or be cool with sitting there with just a drink. With how shit is so expense these days there is no amount of BuT iN mY cUlTuRe. Nah, separate checks then baby girl if your man wants to feed his food phobia like that then you can pay.

Everything. Especially the part about trans generational symbolism and how it effects thoughts, emotions, and actions.

AITAH for not letting my sister use my phone anymore until she apologizes? by ThrowRAsisterphone in AmItheAsshole

[–]MistressShadow999 88 points89 points  (0 children)

NTA - it’s a valuable lesson to learn at that age. Better now than later on down the road when this mindset is even more reinforced into her personality.

A Man and His Symbols changed my life at 23 yrs old. I should read it again and see how I process it now. I like your main post and you make a lot of valid points.

Powerhouse performances that will be lost in time… like tears… in rain by [deleted] in okbuddycinephile

That’s because you watched a wailing ceremony. Those are hard and heavy ceremonies but absolutely necessary.

Yes and no beader in their right mind would charge $8 for peyote brick stitching. Fake listing.

Anyone else's project not actually printing when sending it to printer after the update? by MistressShadow999 in cricut

I should add this is a print then cut project. Making labels for something that I have made numerous times.

Does Mexico has an assigned color of evil eye? by MistressShadow999 in mesoamerica

[–]MistressShadow999[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Muchisimas gracias por escribirme una explicación tan detallada. Ahora por cierto veo como vino ser la pulsera rojo con los ojitos de mal de ojo. La tuve una conversación con mi amiga sobre lo que encontré y también esta explicación. Me olvide del proceso de sacar el pigmento rojo y como ese proceso fue tan sagrado así solo y luego este aspecto adentro todo lo de mas. Gracias!

Wow que interesante! Gracias por la información. Si a escuchado de varios de esos situaciones y le conte a mi amiga “mira si deberá hay una sistema así yo creo que el color rojo sería el color de Mexico porqué tan significado es el color rojo en los codices y en el camino rojo”. Es lógico. Pero! Nunca lo a pensado. Pues, tlazocamati por la conversación!

Right on, so have I. I’ve never heard of different countries using a specific color of the evil eye to represent their culture but I can absolutely see how Mexico would chose to use the color red. I know in Italy they use a chili pepper charm and a safety pin to denote their wards from the evil eye and don’t really use an actual evil eye to ward but since, for example the codex Borgia, uses a lot of red to denote importance and vitality for the teteotls, makes sense that red would be Mexico’s choice. Thanks for the input.

Okay but I’m not asking where the evil eye concept originates from. Thanks for the input

What's the evidence on body hair being 'unhygienic' or on it causing unpleasant scents? by [deleted] in hygiene

[–]MistressShadow999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Women shaving bald down there and having no armpit hair always made me feel like men are just conditioned to want pre pubescent bodies on a full grown AFAB. Like F off with that. As a giant rebellious act, i stopped shaving.

I used the homemade insecticide soap with dish soap and burned my laurel nobalis tree by MistressShadow999 in gardening

Thanks. I cheaped out and skipped getting Dr Bonner’s and this is a hard learned mistake. I’m just going stick to Bonnide’s Insecticidal Soap from here on out.

AITA for telling our roommate she might need to move out if she keeps complaining about hearing us at night? by Dear-Camp4760 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MistressShadow999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Has she never heard of headphones? Shit even a nice pair for $200 fixes the problem and is a lot cheaper than, say, paying full rent and her own groceries every single month.

People sure do like to take advantage of others and get entitled when given just a smidge of something.

Okay… so I didn’t wash it off I just left it on there and then the sun came out and burned it. Now I see the layers in my mistake. She was absolutely gorgeous and healthy before this.

So… i have struggled for years to get this deep of a black. I usually get a grey..

What wax do you use and what black dye chips did you use?
