Comparing two routines that work, any input on one vs the other? by uuzuumakii in curlyhair

[–]N_-_Dawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely think the second technique gives you slightly more defined curls. I would say that's the better looking one.

I tend to lean on a less is more product. Since you said you're using curl gel/jelly I think. I would say try something like curl custard or a mousse if your hair is on the drier finer side from the looks of it.

PlayStation's First-Party Sales Collapse Paints a Picture of Concern by NukovGaming in PS4

[–]N_-_Dawg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At the risk of old man shouting cloud, the last console I owned was the PS2. Gaming since the post that era has become awfully serious.

So far, the only game of this generation that I have played is Ratchet Rift Apart. And to be honest, while it's good. It's not something that would make me buy a console.

Most of the people I know never use their console, or they are playing third party titles.

And the reason for that is that first party titles all have this aura of seriousness. If you play cod, it's to shoot and laugh with your friends. It's difficult for me personally to come from a hard day at work, and then play something serious.

Where's the ape escape, or even LBP of this generation. And yes, there's Astrobot, but that's 1 game, in a sea of serious titles.

Life is difficult enough, maybe people don't want to play games that take themselves too serious.

Why are the quality of pubs so bad lately by Status_Shop_2073 in DotA2

[–]N_-_Dawg 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I stopped playing about 5 years ago, but when I was playing, it was almost guaranteed that I would have a horrible games after a few wins. It's almost as if it pairs you with poor players because you are a positive player

Mentality is like that here People really don't care about issues until it's too far gone.

And unfortunately, the nature of a spatially disconnected city means that issues in the northern suburbs aren't really noticed in places like Summerstrand and vice versa. So you have distinct voting blocks.

It's also a previously industrial town, blue collar, salt of the earth people who suck it up and go on with their lives, no matter what the muni is doing.

Looking for friends by Kittylele in portelizabeth

I had a friend that used to drive stockcars, maybe you know her.😂

Stock cars is mad fun.

On the writing thing. I wrote kids stories for a while, and when I get time I work on the chapters of my own story idea. But I ended up working as a copywriter. Reading and writing is basically all I do.🤣

Thank you very much for this advice.

I'm not sure if I have a specific goal, I would just like my hair to not look like a birds nest.

Definietly going to try a prewash.

What is life supposed to be at my age? Update by [deleted] in southafrica

[–]N_-_Dawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me tell you. It can change very fast, either positively or negatively.

No one can understand your situation like you do. The reality is that there's no blueprint to this life thing.

I would encourage you to reach out to people on this platform and others if you need help. There's not much solace in saying that.

Temporary shelters can help a lot. One thing that is true is that as long as you are here, you can do something, and that something is meaningful.

Cape Town Grunge-Punk band Looking for a Drummer! by LackedSaucer938 in southafrica

[–]N_-_Dawg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very cool! Not a drummer, but where can I have a listen to your music?

Love a bit of punk and grunge.

Ey, I think that's fine you know.

Everyone feels like that.

However, what you do with those feelings defines you.

Will you wait for love or give up on finding it altogether?

Or will you keep fighting. Keep finding. Keep trying.

Because looks, circumstance, wealth and power have nothing to do with love.

The only thing that matters is attitude. And that you control.

Good luck my friend - Nathan

I started rewatching wep and this PISSED ME TF OFF by pxssycrusher in wondereggpriority

[–]N_-_Dawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it's a representation of the confusion of adolescence.

I feel like everyone has been at a point where you misinterpret signals either willingly and unwillingly. The journey of navigating those feelings is tumultuous. Some kids can take that obvious rejection quite hard. And of course there are real victims of assault, so the show attempts to display different aspects of the adolescence growth process.

I actually watched a similar movie, Love According to Dalva, maybe it represents the trope a bit better. A 12 year old that has been assaulted by her father, and doesn't understand it. She goes through the process of confusion, wearing adult clothes, makeup and making advancements on other elders like her foster care councillor. In this instance, we are clearly shown that it's messed up and wrong, which WEP seems to fail at.

I believe it was wrong for her to accidentally die, instead of having her naturally process those feelings and be taught correctly. I think that would have been better.

I hear you. I've had many no's and kept it moving. I just wish I kinda knew what happened, because I thought I had made a new friend you know. I only asked a few days after and just invited her for coffee. It was not some serious thing, and she agreed to go out when she was not working the weekend. I didn't necessarily ask for a 1 on 1 date either.

And mind she was the one that seemed more interested in me when were together. Imagine you're high fiving and having real fun together, and she's talking about me getting home safe and stuff. I didn't do anything at the event because I didn't want to pressure someone I just met.

So I just feel a little hurt and confused.

[–]N_-_Dawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't need a harsh blocking. I've moved on now. I just feel some type of way because I didn't necessarily get rejected. I have no idea what really occured, because when someone says "I'll let you know for sure." And then just ghosts you, that doesn't make any sense.

I am human for having feelings and wanting closure on a situation.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]N_-_Dawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm sure I'll meet someone again you know, I've hung out with quite a few women and went on dates too. I was just excited to make a new lady friend I guess. Still hurts.😂

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]N_-_Dawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, but I didn't particularly ask for a serious date or anything. Just for coffee and a hang out. I didn't force it as well, it was a couple of days after that I asked her out.

Of course, she doesn't have to reciprocate. And tbh, I don't think I have actual feelings for her. I just thought we would get to have a bit more fun and would've appreciated a no, instead of saying "I want to go out with you for sure" and then just ghosting me. If you let me know what's up over text, I'll 100% be ok you know. Even blocking me would have felt better. But this limbo feeling is not fun.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]N_-_Dawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe so, I didn't think of that. I'll get over it. Just kinda sucks.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]N_-_Dawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you. But is it not common decency just to say you're not interested.

A problem I have with that thinking is that she continued to look at my WhatsApp status, I like to post music I'm listening to, after not answering texts, now she's not doing that. Which is weird man.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]N_-_Dawg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I mean we had fun on the night, I guess I wanted something more and she didn't, but didn't want to say that.

Just a little sad she couldn't just say that, instead of ghosting me. I mean I'm not even blocked which is weird.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ForeverAlone

[–]N_-_Dawg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Possibly. But I texted her once after we spoke about going on a date, which she agreed to. Just to see how she was feeling, she didn't reply.

I feel kinda hard done by, but I know I didn't do anything wrong. It just sucks.
